Notes:
I've just been deleting a lot of random secrets that are recycling ancient FS memes ("can't unsee these unrelated pictures, would hit random thing, I wish this scene had ended in 'hot non-con sex'") and one person that makes a different secret about a certain actor every week trying to be as wacky as possible.

What's really kind of baffling is when the fic has a ton of tags for various kinks, multiple sex acts, some sort of premise, like 6 different characters in addition to the main pairing, and then I look at the word count of the actual fic and it's like 800 words.
How are you going to fit all that stuff you tagged for in 800 words?
I think your tags have more words than your fic...
But on the other hand, I've read drabbles that were absolutely perfect and striking in exactly 100 words, so also on the train where simply being "short" doesn't necessarily mean bad. Especially since in fanfic you don't necessarily have to spend any words on setting up a scene, if the canon already did it for you. Sometimes the fic author just wants to deliver a quick gut-punch you haven't seen, based on something the reader already has seen.
