    officially the dumbest thing i've ever seen leonard church get called in any fic

    (and no, there is no relation between this fic and any of the other fics i've mentioned here.)

    in narration, to show that leo (which he is commonly referred to as in this fic) is short for leonard

    even though people reading a rvb fic probably know that already and leo(nard) just sounds stupid, at least the way i'm pronouncing it in my head. leonard wouldn't sound stupid. but leo(nard) does. it makes the leo and the nard sound like separate words, not like leonard.

    Huh, and here I was thinking it was an excuse to say nard.

    yep. like i didn't even have to know what "nard" meant to be put off by the ridiculousness of how it sounded.

    private parts, surprisingly, in this case, meaning classified info, not dick pics

    swirlingflight inane analysis and story spinning is my passion

    You have a talent for finding great typos that could be used for completely different situations than the ones intended by the authors. Worse, I keep wanting to write drabbles, but fic writing is haaaard and energy consuming. Maybe doing the brief describe it thing, like the tsunderplane idea, will work.

    Mettaton himself probably decided on that epithet and made everyone else refer to him by it

    You know he'd think it was great

    YOI Badfic update: friend found an Ella Enchanted AU.

    Naturally, the author keeps putting commands in the dialogue without noticing and having the cursed character directly ignore them.

    More of an art gripe, but why does this depiction of human skelebros show them with hair? That makes no sense!

    probably 'cause humans are capable of having hair and skeletons aren't

    like, it is entirely possible that sans and papyrus only don't have hair in canon 'cause they literally can't

    Hang on, why the hell did I type human? That wasn't what I meant at all! I meant female! I need to go to bed.
