I know there was a thread on this a few days ago but I just finished it last night - what do people think? I loved it and am already thinking of fanfic I could write, but I want to know what everyone else thought!

I'm almost halfway through but really enjoying it!

Just finished episode 3. The plot isn't that interesting so far but the vibe is pleasant and the cast is good.

I liked it much more than the comic books and I really hope it gets a second season. I loved Vanya’s transformation into the White Violin. She looked cool as hell and her outfit was way better than the one she wore in the comic. I can’t decide if she’s my fave or Klaus.

I've only watched one episode. It didn't really hook me in but I will give it another try.

I really enjoyed it except.... Vanya's sad panda-ness really got on my nerves by the end, and I stopped caring.

I could watch Klaus (and Ben, and the Klaus and Ben show) all damn day. It was pretty neat, different, pretty to watch. I'd recommend it, for sure.

I'm getting close to the end, for me the plot isn't anything super amazing but the characters are keeping me around, especially Klaus, Hazel+Cha Cha(and I want mooooooore Ben+Klaus explanation show, gimmie!), Diego has his moments where I like him too and I'm oddly fond of the mother? Idk, it's fun and I really like the whole time-travelling assassains concept, it's neat.

I loved it. It's honestly been ages (like since they first printed them) since I read any of the comics, and I never finished cause... money lol.

But I don't mind that the plot is sort of secondary? Like, the way I felt watching it was that it was more of a device for you to get to know the characters/their issues as a family, etc.

I am all here for the BenKlaus(Diego) show though. Gimme some fic.

Authors, what's your hits/kudos ratio for fic? Do you mostly get the same for fics in the same fandom, or is it all over the place?

1.44% pretty much across the board

Sometimes a bit higher if it's a popular pairing from a just-released movie.

3%

Not sure how useful this statistic is though, since places like AO3 count multiple hits from the same person as a hit. And you can't kudos things every time.

Do you accept them? I can't really imagine accepting for the same reasons the OP of the secret listed. Working with someone like that requires more knowledge of that person and their abilities, IMO. I have regular betas, and they're my regulars for a reason.
