103: Mm... I admit I get touchy when people say "I'm Christian", but I've never noticed anywhere in fandom where someone might have their throats ripped out for it (metaphorically speaking). Honestly, religion just doesn't come up is most of my fandom activities much except when someone is crusading. I get touchy because 9:10 times, the person who says it immediately follows up with some Christian-based opinion that they expect me to agree with (because doesn't everyone believe in the Bible?) and it's awkwakrd to tell them that I disagree, because then they jump down my throat. I get enough of that off-line, being a pagan in the Bible Belt of the USA. I don't need it online too.

(In a side note: someone mentioned the geographic differences in religiosity. I grew up in a pretty open metropolitan area, so yes, the difference in attitude between here and there is extreme. I was utterly shocked to see a billboard-sized road sign saying "go to church or go to hell" right out where anyone could see it! Even worse when it turned out it's funded by the city via some round-about "community support and beautification" law. :\ How is that considered beautification?)

So... sorry, OP, but I guess until religion becomes a side-order thing like height or favorite coffee, there's always going to be tension. A few bigots on both sides ruin the fun for everyone. I'm sorry you've had bad experiences. :(

106: That actually doesn't surprise me. There's a pretty thick line betwene fantasy and reality—all sorts of people fanatsize about things they'd find awful in RL. (Rape fantasy as an example.) Gender just seems to be one of those things for you. Whatever rocks your boat.

115: That abbreviation had me confused for so long... I was like "waitwait, another Kingdom Hearts game? D: How did I miss it?"

135: Ohgods, me too. I'd die to have even a tenth of her approval for depicting Axel. She's just. That. Awesome. You're not alone, OP! (Ignore the drama...)

157: Wow, you just made me realize I have mostly the same thing going. :o I haven't seen any of those. (Does KH count as "new"? I don't know...) I don't think it's old-school elitism though... I just don't like moving on.

Oh goodness, I never wanted to set myself up as some kind of judge for characterization. A huge proportion of KH fanfic is appalling all around and it's like people have never even played the game, much less paid attention to the characters. That's the way it is in any big fandom; look at Harry Potter. But when people think about it and create a thoughtful characterization of Axel, no matter how they turn out, who am I to say what's better? I can only make my arguments and discuss and agree to disagree about some things. But I don't think people need my approval at all.

Not that I'm not extremely flattered that you like the way I do him. ^_^;;

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

lol Serious? I just really admire the way you write Axel, and I don't latch onto writers like that often. I'm picky about characterization and whatnot, so it's hard for me to find a person where I can go "THERE. THAT'S HIM" without adding a disclaimer. ("That's Riku! Except for the bit where he's an utter whore" sort of thing.) You nail him, which is something I'd like to do one day. ^^; You're just my Axel-author-envy, I guess. XD Think of it as being a role model. :D

[rex-dart.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't we all love to nail Axel?

Okay, I couldn't help myself.

I'm really very flattered. *_* And if you ever want a beta or a second opinion on something, or just a review of a completed work, seriously just leave a comment in my LJ and say hey, could you give this a read-through? I'm not harsh, and that's the best way to get me to read a fanfic since I don't really pay attention to what's being written in the fandom at any given time.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

XD Yes. Yes we would. But Roxas does it better.

THANK YOU. I would love your opinion. I just hope I'm not too shy when I have something that's not months old! (Gah, in the process of writing porn, and I'm shy. Go figure.) I'll have to tape a note to my monitor. "You were invited. It's okay. Grow a pair of breasts and beg like a woman, you!"
