fandom babble -- TL;DR on my preferences whee.

So I posted this a bazillion years ago, I know. Today I unearthed it again. I polished it a bit, added stuff in a few sections, and oh well. *repost-no-jutsu* Most of my pairing preferences haven't changed much, but, ehh. I feel spammy today, except brain wouldn't work on fics. Oh well.

I'm so picky with what I read in the Naruto fandom. People rec me some no doubt great fics -- but I see the pairings or the summary and backbuttony I go. ~___~;;; I wish I could be the kind of person who enjoys any kind of plot or pairing as long as it's IC and presented in a convincing way (it sure would mean I'd get to read more than the same plot rehashed for the hundredth time), but... well. I'm not. There are things that I just don't read, no matter how well it's presented.

I tend to be shallow and not give much of a damn about most minor characters, or adults. XD

( Pairing I actively look for and will read even if the writing's not that great )

( Pairings I love but which also get on my nerves when their inherent issues aren't addressed or they're OOC )

( Pairing I can read about and like, if they're written by authors I trust )

(  Pairing I like in the background but which I won't bother looking for as main pairing )

(  Pairings I can tolerate in the background (mostly because I don't care either way about them) )

(  Pairing that fill my 'eee, pretty crack pairing' needs )

( Pairings I don't read, complete with TL;DR essays on SasuSaku, NaruSaku and Gaara's and Itachi's love lives. )

( Genres I don't read )
