Hey! I've been thinking of doing this for a while, but no I finally am! I'm going to be reviewing Fan Fiction, dissecting it bit by bit to find out what's really wrong with it! But, I can't think of anything to review... Any suggestions? (Anything but my Immortal, I'm teaming up with a friend for that one. It's too much to take on alone!)

What kind of fan fiction?

I happen to be writing a fanfic of Randomly Walk by Bardockwest, it has a better narrative, but it's much more linear. you could start with that and watch your (hypothetical) ratings go plummeting into the ground once I've finished.

Well, any Fan Fiction, really, as long as there's not to much 'adult' content. Violence is fine, but other... Things are not (if you catch my drift). I'm also more likely to do a review if I have read the cannon series that the Fan Fic is about (so stuff like Harry Potter, Twilight, and Pokémon), but that's not a requirement. Also, the format I'm doing the reviews in makes it so that it cannot be a choose your own adventure story, it has to be one story.

Oh, and if aanyone asks me to review their Fan Fic, be prepared if I think it's no good. I'm writing for a comedy website, so I will be making jokes that may sting a bit, and I will probably overreact to things. But, underneath all that, I will pu valid,c obstructive criticism.

Link to the website?

Sure! It's not really a comedy website, but my reviews (when they're finished) will add some comedy.

Here it is!

There's not that much there yet, so that's why I'm asking for some ideas on what to review!

The jokes won't sting my upcoming literature too much, Randomly Walk II is a satire to begin with.

Ok! If you want me to review it, could you send me a link?

Moved to Parlor Room.

Oh, here it is! I thought I lost it!

Wait, wouldn't it make more sense if it were in writing workshop or reading corner? I thought the Parlor Room was just for talking about storygames.

I... I have finished.... My Fan Fiction.... Of Randomly Walk!....

Do you mean like fanfiction's that we think would be good for you to review or do you mean the fanfiction's on this site?

Fan-fiction that you want me to review.

Even if it's not mine? I've never actually written any fan fictions. I do know of a lot of well-done fan fictions that I could link you to if that's what you mean. 

Even if it's not yours. In fact, that's preferable (as long as it doesn't violate and copyright laws) because if someone suggests their own FanFic, I'd hesitate to critisise it properly.

Here they are, I personally think the first two are the best. Top to bottom by my standards.

These are the ones I had kept the links to, I can try and look for the rest if you want them. xD Fear the clicky links! Muhahaha!

With A Dragonborn Like This... <--A long skyrim fanfiction with a sequel about the dragonborn being Cicero. 

Where I Belong... <--A modern girl gets dropped into the Dragon-Age universe. Has a sequel and a side story about a later revealed character. If you're worried about it I'll tell you now that she does not become a Gray-Warden.

CaptainRaspberry-Negative Halo <--I'm recommending the Negative Halo series. Do the revised version of the first one.

X-COM SecondContact <--X-Com Enemy Unknown and Mass Effect crossover. It's quite good but i've only played the first mass effect.

TheNewKeeper <--Not the best but not the worst. Black&White and Dungeon Keeper crossover. It's a fan fiction idea I've always hoped would become a story.

Note: The first three are really long and all of these are fanfiction.net stories. :)

Cool! Out of those (and by those I mean the originals they were based off) I've only played Skyrim, so I may review that (and by that I mean the FanFiction. Confusing enough?)

For the B&W+DK story you only need to know the concepts of the game. Just look them up on Google before reading the story. 

Oh also it kind of cut's off at the ending.
