Make This Anon Happy Again

[(Anonymous)]

Anon is in a terrible mood, because one of their absolute favorite stories in another fandom was "adopted" by a new author (though the original author hasn't been updated it in years). To make a long story short, Anon read a few chapters from the new author and it SUCKS! Big time.

So what Anon is prompting is a Modern or College AU Altair/Malik, where Malik has an overly critical personality and Altair goes out of his way many times to make him happy again. The story can be about anything (Altair's ridiculous new outfit style, How stupid people can be, IDGAF), whatever the authorAnon wants. Anon only has two conditions though :

[1] It has to be lengthy (Anon loves long stories)
[2] It has to be well-written (meaning it has to have a plot, must have internal continuity, some grammar and spelling mistakes are okay, no sudden tonal changes, no OOCs, no out-of-nowhere rape scene, just make it good)

Please, will a writerAnon lessen the pain of one of my favorite stories being ruined?
*cue sad begging face*

Well,it's not quite the same premise, but if you want, I can link you back to a lengthy fanfiction about Altair learning to be happy again after a divorce. I think it's well-written, and the author is willing to listen you think there's something wrong.

OP Response

[(Anonymous)]

Anon would be very grateful if you did, I am always willing to read well-written stories. With an author that is willing to listen to constructive criticism is a definite plus.

Re: OP Response

It's already well under way, but I get the feeling the author is losing steam on it with no idea of how to end it.

Oh Anon remembers this story, I started reading it a while back, but I think I got distracted by other fics and stopped keeping up with it. Anyways, thank you replyAnon for the link and reminder of this story, I really appreciate it.

Pffft. Well then. Sounds good. I'm glad I could help. C:

This Anon has been doing cracky minifills of Altair/Mal relationship wherein all the assassination targets of AC1 are Altair's exes, it's quite entertaining, will be multichaptered and I promise no out-of-nowhere-rape-scenes ;-)

I am trying to work up to lengthy but minifills are mother's milk to my Writer's Blocked head right now.

Also I hate it when bad things happen to good fics, I'm sorry about your other fandom.

OP Response

[(Anonymous)]

opAnon would be very happy to read your work if you decide to post. A light-hearted, cracky story always lightens my mood, and thank you for your condolences regarding the other fandom. I guess I'm just disappointed that after 13 long, well thought out chapters (mind you the work was about 50,000 words at the last update) you get someone that entirely compromises the story's integrity and labels anyone that tries to point out glaringly obvious inconsistencies as a flamer/hater.

But you don't need to hear me ramble about this, so to sum up: If you decide to fill, I would love to read it.

Re: Make This Anon Happy Again

This anon is wondering what fic you are so sad about. Anon is always looking for good fic, and even if the newest chapters are bad, good stuff before that would always be good to read.

Re: Make This Anon Happy Again

[(Anonymous)]

opAnon is unsure of whether or not if a link to the story is allowed. Since technically this could be considered flaming, and I'd rather not cause trouble. If a mod/person who has an answer could get back to me on this, that would be great.

Anyways, I would just like to add that the story in question was not perfect to begin with. After reading a few of the older chapters again, I realize that there are many things (imho) that could have easily been omitted. I don't want to create unrealistic expectations, such as labeling it as the greatest fanfic ever nor do I want people to start attacking the new author (as others seem to enjoy what they have added).

I will admit there were problems with the original and the story did seem to be losing steam about 3/4ths of the way through. But reflecting back I guess it was just nice to have a fic where the characters were strong and independent individuals rather than waiting-for-my-handsome-and-sexy-prince-to-come-save-me/wish-fullfillment and living in a happy-magical-wonderland-where-bad-things-can-happen-but-it's-all-okay-in-the-end cliches that seem to appear all too often in fanfiction.
