Oh lordy.

Thanks to anon's hint a couple pages back (HINT: using photobucket guarantees your secrets are not so secret, especially if your LJ and photobucket handles are the same - not to mention the fact that the images for your LJ layout are dumped on your photobucket account. *facepalm*) I decided to see if your fic lived up to your opinion of it, and I've got to say, I was rather disappointed.

Yeah, I know it's not that hard to ride above the crowd in the KH fandom where AUs and OOC run rampant, but there's still some pretty good writers for KH - you have to be pretty much the shit to be able to say you can top, say, [livejournal.com profile] rex_dart, [livejournal.com profile] ronsard, or [livejournal.com profile] kokanshu. Sure, they have their flaws, but they're all at the top of the fandom, IMO.

Look, your fic. It's a bit purple, which isn't necessarily bad, but the big thing I wanted to say was show, don't tell. You're explicitly stating your characters' mindsets and internal states all the time rather than presenting situations to the reader in which material is inferred. This is writing 101, okay? While yeah, this could probably be taken with a grain of salt because I've received criticism on my writing for not going deep enough into characters' heads and leaving things unexplained, I don't think my opinion's entirely without merit.

If you think I'm just blowing steam, leave a scathing review on one of my own Axel/Roxas fics. (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4315964/1/From_Out_of_Town) Then again, if you think the aforementioned KH authors' writing isn't as good as your own, I don't see how my fic could change your inflated opinion of your own talent.
