    Almost Recommendable Worm Fanfiction

    I honestly think every single person on spacebattles should under go some sort of psychometric testing. There must be some interesting conclusions studying a group that large which fails every time to understand societies pleasantries and why we act the way we do. I'll always remember the greg gamer piece in which a bullied Taylor displayed trust issues, and that was inappropriate according to the many fine individuals there. One person gave all the steps on dealing with bullies before...

    Thanks for that link fire, I just went down the rabbit hole of reading autistic people debate how severely bullied people should react in social situations, the most retarded of which have professed to not having read the source material. My favorite is from this dude who after giving reasons on why a person who's lifes been systematically pulled apart should be more upbeat goes ahead and says this: Reader mode was the best thing spacebattles has ever put out.

    The worm/tokyo ghoul cross over I found to be pretty enjoyable. Does things quite differently and has managed to avoid the two things that I hate most in worm fics, being "kiddo" and overly dramatic triggerings. https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/centipede-worm-tokyo-ghoul.431353/ Has a good bit to read through currently, and it doesn't show any signs of abandonment.

    Meh. Not really liking it to be honest. Here's a list of reasons why: 1.) Yet another locker scene, complete with vomit as the authors personal little twist. 2.) Introspective moments of being pathetic (No one's coming to save her!). I understand the world presented is fairly grim, but come on, surely by now Taylor being completely unable to defend herself for the first few chapters must have lost it's appeal. 3.) In the first chapter 'kiddo' was utilised four times. In the dialogue in...

    I agree with Cleanrag, I think Danny is written as an excellent point of conflict. Moreover I'm glad that at some point well written conflict between Taylor and Danny occurred, especially as Danny is described very early on in the series as having a poor temper, and Taylor clearly has issues with authority, let alone a Taylor inhabited with the Phoenix Force. At some point I need to write up my issues with weaver 9 as well, because that story is one that's quite good but not flawless.

    There has been literally one chapter since then though, I'd say that's a sample size not big enough to make a judgement. Normally I'd agree with you in regards to authors on that lovely website, but this one hasn't let me down too terribly at all.

    Has anyone read firebird? It's by the same person that wrote Acceleration, and is a crossover with x-men I believe (not too sure on comics sorry), in that Taylor triggers with the phoenix force or obtains the phoenix force somehow. The story is quite well written in my opinion and is worth checking out.

    I think that says just about all that's needed to know about spacebattles moderation then really. On topic, has any one been keeping up with Unnatural Disaster? I saw it linked a few posts back and read through it all. I think it's pretty good from what I've read any way, there's been like one "kiddo" deployed, and no random lesbian romance shoe horned in. Having said that the last few chapters have pushed it pretty firmly into 'rationalist' territory, not so much as philosophical...

    Scrib I do like that you're not taking the low hanging fruit in regards to fiction written on space battles, I however have no compunctions against doing so. In my opinion the reason non cannon romance is so terribly written on space battles is because most of the authors don't understand how to write a realistic portrait of character interaction, let alone romance. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that a good percentage of people who write on space battles frequently don't understand how...

    Well, I've been enjoying a crossover with superman called "The Last Daughter" that is quite well written and manages to avoid most of the tropes that annoy me in the spacebattles repository. Except one, which is of course to shoe horn in a relationship with Panacea, because Taylor's got to be gay. Urgh there's no escaping slash.

    "I... I just realized I won. When Sophia pushed me into that locker and made me trigger I got the most bullshit broken power dad" said Taylor, to her father. "That's nice kiddo". Poor grammar, spelling errors, woeful interactions between characters, Taylor knowing what "triggering" is months earlier then in cannon, that fucking locker scene, shitty authors projecting their woes onto the world. It all adds up, and the end result is a bunch of awfully written stories with no plot beyond...

    Danny isn't a big factor at all in A Cloudy Path but he still has chapters devoted to him being a mental crutch for Taylor in a way that's just not needed. Fair enough if the authors want to use him as a way for Taylor to retain some morality, but reassurance isn't delivered in kiddos and impotent rage.

    Pup and cub doesn't offend me that much because I typically leave the story before it has a chance to. Unfortunately the Worm fanfiction community does not have the established authors that Harry Potter does.

    It's not so much the word in so far as how often people want to use it. A cloudy path has gratuitous usage of it, with some chapters racking up more then its entire use in cannon. It should be noted that Danny didn't use it as his go to adjective of choice when describing Taylor.

    Just went on a binge through spacebattle's to catch up on the latest and greatest. I thoroughly don't advise Queen of the Swarm, as it has the problems that every other piece of fiction written that divides the characters into good and evil with no shades tends to have. Every one that's good likes everyone that's good bar a few token gestures, the main character has the rest of the cast literally written to reassure her that she has some self worth, the main character gets a ridiculous...

    I actually hate reading the comments on spacebattles. The overly politcally correct rules of the website (no smut etc), and the way some users voraciously flock to defend it in the weirdest way, while constantly telling people to stop being creepy just makes me think they're all looking through the window trying to understand basic rules of society. The absolute obsession they have with rape is fucking weird too. So keep on bringing em here please :P

    After reading the response from the author, Go Gently will be incredible if she can pull it off. With the writing indicated, I see no reason at all why she couldn't. Also, I'm regretting spoiling myself now. That was a silly choice.

    I'm having similar thoughts, though the fluffy writing and prose appeals to me in the sea of locker room scenes, shocking "Iv;e had an idea fro a taylor with x" prompts and just generally poor writing. I suppose I'm a sucker for a whimsical piece, even if I never read it again. 4/5 for me at this point.

    Just went trawling through the ideas thread on SB, and came across this gem, titled 'Think of it as a Game', it takes a more literal approach to the cops and robbers aspect of parahuman life, as it appears to be a real game. That said it's very, very short, is only one chapter long so far (no idea if the auther that wrote it is likely to continue it or not), but it is interesting.

    I was debating about recommending Stronger, and I didn't for a couple of reasons really. The first is that it's quite short, and the quality of writing presented hasn't enthralled me in the way that Go Gently did, and the second is that the update speed is obscene, so I want to wait a bit before casting judgement on something that may or may not end up the way Silent did. I'll have to check out Dire Worm.

Danny triggers, stuff happens that I can't say because it's literally 10k words long and I would give away the plot, it's light hearted and funny, and I have no idea what WTNV is supposed to represent either.

    Having just re read the whole story again, I think this is the best piece of fan fiction for Worm by a pretty comfortable margin. It's original, the writing quality is pristine, the humour in it manages to be clever without degenerating into a crack fic, and perhaps most importantly it doesn't have that locker scene again. Much like a burger from McD's, I'm lovin it.

    The problem I have with Weaver 9 is the writing style drops sharply in quality once it starts to focus on Weavers actions. That said, I haven't read the newest chapters so I don't know if that trend continues or not.

    I like Copacetic less and less each time it gets updated. It's just so overly dramatic, some of the characters come across as pathetic (especially the girl that triggered from being asked a set of questions), the fact that an example suddenly became a youtube video with millions of hits bugged me, and Taylor is horrendously out of character.
