The Goddess Sulli.
She saved me.
I was far into the depths of
unconsciousness by the last assassination attempt on my cerebral
cortex, when I heard a voice talking to me.
“Duchess,” she said. “Do not
surrender. The war is not over.”
“But Goddess, even with my eyes
closed I can still see her face charging towards me. She's so...
ugly.” I pleaded with her to be understanding but her brilliant glow
overwhelmed me.
“Hush. Rewards will be given to those
who fight for the course of justice.” Sulli's voice, deep and soft,
soothed me. Her radiant beauty slowly replaced all instances of
butter-faced rappers in my mind. “Now review the fanfiction you've chosen for
this week.”
“Yes, My Goddess,” I whispered as
she faded away and I regained consciousness. My next girlxgirl fiction
lined up was set to feature Sulli herself as well as Taeyeon. It was worth a shot.
The story started with a direct quote
from the real interview with Taeyeon and Seohyun.
A fanfic based on events that happened
in reality? What is this clever trend of thought? And why don't
fanauthors do it more often? I started feeling something I have never
experienced before reading a fanfiction. I felt...
Intrigued.
Taeyeon was written as a perverted
little girl who got turned on during an interview after hearing
about Sulli calling her pretty. My anticipation heightened. Why did I
care so much? Was it because this author is actually writing
competently with punctuation and correct tenses? Was I that
desperate?
My mind cluttered with so many
questions as to why I was enjoying this whilst Taeyeon found Sulli in
the hallway to their dorm rooms. What followed was some of the most
beautifully written lesbian teasing banter I have ever had the
pleasure of reading.
I wanted to cry.
The back and forth between the two
girls while they were only inches away from each other painted an amazing
picture inside my imagination. I closed my eyes. I could see the Goddess
Sulli smiling and nodding at me. I understood it then. That this is what
she wanted me to see: The hope in fanfiction.
Comments
I am going to do something that I never
do.
I am going to link to the fanfiction.
I am not sure how often I'll be giving
out recommendations at all but this one is short and not a terrible
waste time. It might not be your taste and it's certainly not perfect, but it accomplishes a lot of things that other fanfics do
not. That's enough to get a passing grade from me.
Thank you Goddess.

Bonus!!!
I reckon you should ALWAYS link to the fanfiction, ESPECIALLY if it's bad!
ReplyDeleteI don't know about that. There's a tumblr literally dedicated to shitty fanfics (although I havent been there in ages and idk if it's that active now) on aff (wtfasianfanfics), and they've had serious issues with authors getting bullied off the site by people who have found their stories. One of the admins used to do fanfic readings too, but those stopped because almost all the fics they read got found and deleted.
DeleteBasically it was some bullshit. I mean sure their writing is shitty and deserves to be banished from the internet, but there's always room for improvement and constructive criticism. All authors were bad at one point, reading through my former stuff makes me want to vomit everywhere. But I improved, and luckily, didn't publish any of the really cringeworthy stuff anywhere.
