Oh, and FD? You got me thinking.

I've considered making my fic into a small series where all the background characters get the love and attention they deserve. And I've already got ideas in my head about a little, shall we say, duet between Vinyl Scratch and Octavia.

Sounds dirty.

I like it.

When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Yeah, I'm going to deliberately choose to misinterpret that, because a bunch of miniclopfics would be far better than whatever you do to them.

Got done with the second part of the torture.

Yes, I am a horrible person.
Yes, you are, but that's nothing new.

I need a title, though, unless you want to stick with "Untitled (11-18-2011)".

Also, I should probably just make a new file for all of Dsarker's short, unfinished, untitled fics.
Also, I should probably mark the grimdark fanfics in some way. Of course, "grimdark" is subjective. For example, I would count CrazyCow's WH40k crossover as "Dark", but not necessarily Grimdark. Most longer stories by Dsarker (and especially TBP) are most definitely Grimdark, though.

I have decided that the names in the series are going to be "[CHARACTER] Get(s) Loved On."

Wow, that's... that's absolutely horrible!
I probably shouldn't be surprised, but still...

Okay, fuck this, I'll stick a grimdark tag on there. Anything else would be grossly negligent.

The grimdark label... its probably all too encompassing.  Its like a nice way to say it includes horrid death and a bad way to say it includes dark themes that are implied but not written out.

Clearer labels like contains extreme violence or gore may be more appropriate here... I figure some other non-pony fanfiction places have better labels then dark and grimdark...

With TBP's recent shift, it'll be appropriate to differentiate Grimdark tags into [Grimdark as Hell] and [Grimdark as Fuck].

Hmm, that's difficult to decide, really. When I say "Grimdark", I mean the stuff that TBP posts. Horrid deaths and torture scenes. And while CrazyCow's WH40k crossover does have gore in it, I wouldn't really call it disturbing, sick and wrong like TBP's stuff. If you avoid anything that has gore in it, you'd avoid some really good stuff, including things like FO:E which, as far as I know, does have deaths and the usual really painful wounds, but no self-indulgent torture or particularly horrible deaths.
Even "Extreme Violence" is rather vague...

Or Grimhell or Grimf**k, to fit the two syllable limit.

Well, I ended it all on a rather nice note. Derpy don't die.

Still pretty messed up, though, so read at your own risk.
