What will pull you out of an otherwise good story? Anatomic impossibility? Certain phrasing? Really unfortunate typo?

For me, referring to eyes as "orbs" will do it. So will some of the basic biology fail that sometimes makes it into hurt/comfort stories. (Example: I once read a fic where a character was randomly sad and lost 60 pounds in 2 weeks. Also, febrile seizures almost never happen in adults unless they are already prone to seizures.)

Oh, also there was that fic where the author accidentally typed "lap" instead of "lab" multiple times. I think they may have been using voice to text, so easy enough, but for a mostly non-smutty fic, there were an awful lot of experiments taking place in people's laps. :)

Lmao, orbs'll do it for me too. I hate that thirteen year old wolf roleplayer vocab.

One thing that always bothers me is when a story has far more sexual content than the summary/rating/warnings led me to believe. I usually skim over sex scenes so when the porny stuff starts to leak into 75% of the fic it starts to frustrate me, especially if the sex scenes are very cerebral so I have to read them or I'll miss out on some of the plot and character development. I'm fine with those kinds of stories when I go into them knowing what to expect, but I hate when they sneak up on me.

Magically disappearing semen.

Seriously, when characters have just had semi-public sex where they specifically mention getting messy, then just walk back out into public it really throws me. In my mind, they're standing there talking to people, covered in semen. It's... not good.

Hee! It reminds me of TV shows/movies where a character is healed and their clothing is also magically repaired and cleaned. Maybe one of the characters in your story also has healing/dry-cleaning powers!

Ha, yes! I'm always like "But where did it go?"

Characters who spend more time explaining their sexualities/romantic inclinations/gender identities than they spend doing anything else.

That bottom fic actually sounds hilarious and worth the read for the unfortunate misspell.
