Re: Fic Discussion- kept just like we were, oflights

It was...ok? I kept waiting for the narrative arc to become clear and kept checking against how much of the fic was left as wondering when something missing would kick in. Idk I usually like oflights' stuff, I just found this aggressively boring and don't understand how this could be written by the same person who wrote 'welcome home'. I feel like more interesting/original and frankly better written fic has got far less attention but so go the ways of fandom!

Yeah, "ok" is exactly how I'd describe it too. Not a fic I'd ever bother to reread, but I'm not mad I spent time on it either.

DA

I liked it, but I see the point here too. It reminded me of the other nonlinear fic she wrote for Sid/Geno, where I think the form took precedence over the plot. This fic did the same thing, because I enjoyed the contrast in the two narratives and the way some matched up, like Sid and Nate at the zoo vs. Sid and Nate at hockey school, and Andy giving them a hard time about food vs. Andy giving them a hard time about PDA.

The difference is this fic didn't really have that big impact moment like the other nonlinear one did, with "breakup canceled" and the evil agent reveal. It just kind of petered out. I think it could have been longer and gone past the Cup win, actually.
