    I don't really know where it's going, so read and drop me a review and we'll see okay?

    Is this a summary or an AN? Seriously, who would read a fic based on a summary that says literally nothing useful.

    This is less a bad summary and more a bad concept.

    The summary actually tells you exactly what the story is going to be all about: Naked teenagers, living together. And because it does its job as a summary, you pretty much know exactly whether you want to read it or not.

    The best kind.

    The idea is literally why though. God, I swear there are no standards in ff. Actually I know there aren't.

    I dont think that story is from ff.net, unless they added cat pokes recently, so we cant really blame ff lack of standards for this one.

    I think Ghosthree3 was referring more to fan fiction in general, not specifically fanfiction.net. And, to that, you won't find me disagreeing.

    Let me guess, Harry falls in love with Vernon after death resurrects him. I really hope I'm wrong about that.

    What the hell is a Video Game Plot? Non-existant? Pointless and inconsequential? Maybe Harry spends 90% of the fic repetitively mowing down Death Eaters (this also covers the "Grey!" aspect)?

    Any summary that starts off as "what will happen when" is an auto-next for me.
    Thank God I skipped Harry Crow with this filter

    How To Train Your Auror -:- By : Alcoholic_Rootbeer -:- Published : May 12, 2016

    Located : Harry Potter > Het - Male/Female> Draco/Hermione

    After the tragic death of Ron, Hermione decides to take up his torch and become an Auror herself, despite Harry’s protests. When she discovers that Draco Malfoy has also made the decision to apply himself to be an Auror, plot happens. WIP

    The worst stories are when the plot happens don't you think? :sherlock:

    Oddly enough, that summary leaves me doubting there's actually much plot happening.
