Re: Fic Discussion- Still and Again

Nope, I like them just fine, and I'm also fine with two soulbonded people instantly moving in, struggling with the predestination/do I really want this aspects, and so on. It was just the context and the handling of the age stuff, the three young insta-stepkids and the way Danny talked about it all that made it creepy to me. I mean, even if you have to keep the moving in right away bit, you could still lessen the creepiness by simply having the soulbond start later (like I said, they probably didn't meet in real life until at least a year later, so you kind of have to wonder why the bond in the story has to happen as early as the author could possibly push it back without going full underage) and maybe not de-aging the guy all the way back to a teenager with his brand-new lover's poster on his childhood bedroom wall, or something. As it is, it's basically The Time Traveler's Wife, and that's weird because it didn't actually have to be.

I agree re: the weirdness of the fic but I'm mostly commenting to say that your comment made me go take another look at The Time Traveler's Wife to see if it's as creepy as I remember it being and HOLY SHIT it is actually even creepier and, worse, more explicitly so than it was in my memories. Like, I remembered the grooming stuff and the pregnancy fuckery but had apparently either not noticed or scrubbed away shit like all the "totes not a pedo rapist!!!" protestations and the fact that they boned literally the instant she turned eighteen (and he was FORTY-ONE!!!!!). Plus there was a fuckton of gross gender role stuff that I sort of noticed but didn't completely grasp the first time around but this time it was a glaring neon sign and made me want to vomit.

But the actual worst part is that I got sucked in despite myself, kept reading and cried all over again about the ending. Fuck you, book >>>>>:(

I finished TTW on an airplane on the way home from Hawaii. I cried so hard the flight attendant stopped to make sure I was ok.

It was embarrassing.
