Yeah...that is true emma, WE CAN WRITE WHATEVER WE WANT! Anyways, I like the Broken Mirrors story. But I hope Wilt dosen't befriend his demon who posesed him. And I hope Wilt dosen't belive that thing about his and Devloek's souls being fused or something. I like Casimier. And Will's nice too. Even though there's so much happening in Wilt's life, I think HE'S the ONLY normal one in the whole story, besides Mr. Herriman and Frankie.

I haven't finished 'Broken Mirrors' yet. I sort of quit, due to the fact I was heavily dissappointed to find a load of mindless, unending angst with little to no humor to fall back on as the first did.
Back on topic, while I CAN tolerate a bit of scary stuff and a bit of sadness, I CANNOT appreciate characters I love being bent and twisted 'til they're in no recognizable shape to the characters they are supposed to be. I hate it when Mac is portrayed as some highschool jock, or turned into a goth. The arguement for this is 'But people can change!'. My response to this is 'True, but they're still themselves. Mac is too smart to become some goth or a jock.' I mean, look at me! You'd never guess it, but I've seen a phycologist before! Something happened to me as a kid (I'd rather not discuss, as it is heavily personal and really, not appropriate for kids to hear about), something terrible, but I'm not some emo goth kid, now am I?
Wilt needs one big hug for being involved in so many angst stories.
*hugs Wilt*

Oh, man, you want to know a sort of angst I can't understand at all? Bloo really angsting. I mean hardcore stuff, stuff that makes Bloo in the sadder parts of the pilot look like he's on top of the world! I mean, I've seen fics where Bloo CUTS HIMSELF! Bleh...
I don't think Bloo really has the mental capacity to go that deep into his grief. Especially when the cause of all this "grief" is because, say, Mac had to go home early. It's ridiculous...

Sister, you'd be amazed at the kind of stuff I've seen (especially in Foster's). I'm a member of GAFF, so it's a duty of mine to seek out bad fanfics and snark them.

I love that site. :') I have a wordpad file saved of hilarious fanfic quotes (not just Foster's). Some of my personal favorites: "I saved everyone, except for the person who really mattered to me.” “Who?” She asked, inquisitively. “It doesn’t matter.” "Rated T for mild lanage and there might be some French,German,and other lngs. in this story" "Bikini Bottom resident Patrick Star was violently killed in his home last night." "The reason they are acting out of character is because i'm writing the story." "Suddenly his eyebrows began to twitch. They were like hairy little midgets dancing above his eyelids." "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Commerce" "“I’m Patricia,” She said, then added, “Not Patty, It reminds me of butts,”" "Chapter One: Revenge shall be mine ponies." And so on.

I don't remember anymore. Probably some Harry Potter fic. That fandom creeps me out.

Yeah...Harry Potter is getting really...dark... The only HP fanfiction I ever read, years back, had Harry and the gang written as 15-16 year old marajuana fiends and was titled "Harry Pothead and the Stoned Sorceror." It wasn't very original, but it was funny. I don't know if it followed the plot of the 1st movie or not, as I never saw the movie.

Yeah that is just ridiculous. Bloo is too selfish to go and harm himself, he would never do it. LOL And yeah...since when would Bloo go into severe depression over Mac just having to go home a little early?? In my eyes, the only possible thing would be Mac's DEATH, but I really can't stand to even think about that, it makes me almost cry. ~Ami~

I don't understand these people. I'd never be able to write something like that.

I don't understand these people. I'd never be able to write something like that. There's a new one up now, in which Frankie's parents are both brutally abusive drunks, and she's taken away from them and placed with her grandmother to keep her from being killed, but the parents keep showing up at Foster's(drunk, of course)and beating her up anyway. They laugh when she falls down and gets hurt-that sort of thing. Doesn't sound like the sort of parents who would console a child that's afraid of ghosts by talking over the fear with her and advising her to keep telling herself, "there's no such thing as ghosts", does it? pitbulllady

Shh! Don't speak of canon in their presence! It only makes them violent.
