melonknee Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Howdy! I thought this would be kind of a fun way to get pointed in the direction of some fics to read around here and a way to not feel too shy about saying something. So for starters I'm Mel and I'd love to read anything you throw my way regardless of fandom familiarity. What to expect from me: I'm pretty much overly nice and complimentary. You probably won't find that I'm gonna say anything mean or particularly critical of your fic, because I just generally don't like feeling mean, even if it's constructive. But if you ask me to keep an eye on something in particular I can manage that. Rules: I can read on FFT & Ao3 but don't really use FFN anymore Starting with 3 open slots for reviews I'll try to finish within 2 weeks, and you can poke me in a PM to remind me because I struggle with memory and workload Any suicide, self-harm, or graphic rape/non-con as a main plot I'd like to avoid but if it's in the background with a warning my way that's fine! Any fandom or Original! I CAN review smut but I may gloss over focusing heavily on that through general embarrassment No teacher/mentorXstudent ships, fics that focus on their mentoring relationship is fine but not romantic involvement Preferences: Love romance and fluffy things galore Mundane type modern AUs can be some of my favorites I LOVE WLW SHIPS!!! Have a form! Quote Story + link: Warnings: Anything to focus on? Genre: Summery: Ship(s): Current Review Request Count: __/3
Darling_take_off_the_mask Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Hi Mel! Since you like mundane modern AU's, maybe you'd like to take a peep at this? Story + link: Simple Minds [M] by RGF (<--- That was the link to the story here on fanfictalk archives, but if you prefer AO3, here is my link on AO3 ) Warnings: Slurs Anything to focus on?: Since it's a Muggle AU, I love thoughts on the characterizations and dynamics Genre: AU, Drama, General Summary: Six wrongdoers. Six social spheres. Six stories. One horrible vice principal (hem hem!) Eight hours stuck in a room together. Ladies and gentlemen, detention is now in session. Ship(s): Minor/implied Ron/Hermione eventually Current Review Request Count: 3/5 (Just a note on your request form, with the review request count -- it's meant to be __/5 because it's meant to keep track of how many requests that individual requestor has made in various request threads in the span of two weeks. Even though you yourself may have only 3 open spots for review requests. ) -- also Mel
Felpata_Lupin Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Hello, Mel! Welcome to FFT! I'll jump in too, if that's okay? Story + link: The first kiss is grand... by Felpata_Lupin Warnings: sexual content (but it's really just some kissing ) Anything to focus on? Not really. This is an old story of mine (so probably not my best writing), but you said you like fluffy romance so I thought you might've enjoyed it I'd just love your general thoughts! Genre: Fluff, Romance, Song Fic Summary: Quote James Potter always loved Lily Evans. Lily Evans always hated James Potter. Or did she? Ship(s): James/Lily Current Review Request Count: 2/5

ineffable_season Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Hiya Mel! You mentioned loving fluffy romance, so here is some. It's not WLW, so hopefully that's ok. (I do have one I'm working on for a challenge though ) Story + link: Comfort in Chaos || prideofprewett Warnings: None. I mean there is drinking and some drug references and they kiss and cuddle a few times. Anything to focus on? Your thoughts on my OCs maybe? Genre: AU, Fluff, Humor, Romance Summary: Molly Prewett invites a group of friends to her aunt’s summer cottage for a post-Hogwarts weekend getaway. What begins as a carefully crafted girl’s weekend soon spirals into a rowdy house party with boys and booze. As Molly clings to the edges of the raucous celebration, she finds Arthur Weasley doing the same. With a shared interest in avoiding over the top festivities, they discover that perhaps there’s always been something a bit more than friendship between them. Ship(s): Molly Prewett/Arthur Weasley Current Review Request Count: 1/5
melonknee Posted October 24, 2020 Author Posted October 24, 2020 @prideofprewett your review is all done!! All slots open!
inmyownlittlecorner Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Hi Mel! I don't think we've met yet. I'm Noelle, and I was wondering if you would mind taking a look at my Luna & Snape (platonic, teacher and student relationship) story? Story + link: Severus Snape and the Midnight Tea by la_topolina Warnings: Slurs Anything to focus on? Your thoughts Genre: Angst, Fluff, Humor Summery: Teaching Potions to Luna Lovegood is turning out to be one of the greatest trials of Severus Snape's life.

lostinthelightss Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 hi mel, hoping to sneak right in if you don't mind? this is a crossover with another series but you don't need to know anything about that one (CW Reign) for the story to make sense, i just borrowed some of their characters, who don't show up in this chapter anyways! hope thats alright! Story + link: ladies of chaos (m) - prologue (technically chapter 1) Warnings: Sexual Content (not in this chapter), Substance Abuse Anything to focus on? i just wanna know what you think Genre: AU, Crossover, Humor, Romance, Smut (not in this chapter) Summary: Quote This summer was supposed to be fun and full of adventure, just me and my two cousins/best friends, roaming around the countryside and wrecking havoc wherever we go. I suppose Cousin James didn't get the memo, because now all anyone can whisper, gossip, or even think about is the crown prince's engagement. Now we've only got two months to buy dresses, find dates, and learn dances before his upcoming nuptiuals. If Aunt Fleur had anything to say about it, she'd lock the three of us up before we do anything to jeopordize this 'important state affair'. I mean, they don't call us the ladies of chaos for nothing! Ship(s): Lily Luna Potter/OC (HP), Molly Weasley (II)/OC (HP), Victoire Weasley/OC Current Review Request Count: 2/5 thank youuuu

Felpata_Lupin Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 Hey, Mel! Since you mentioned in your wishlist that you'd like to receive some requests, I thought I'd stop by with one? I'm not sure if this is very much your genre, but I'm currently obsessed with this and I'd love your opinion, if you feel like giving a peek... Story + link: That crazy week into the future Warnings: Domestic Abuse, Sexual Content, Violence (nothing too explicit, though ) Anything to focus on? Just your thoughts! Genre: Angst, AU, Drama, Humor, Hurt/Comfort Summary: Quote When a Charms mishap brings them eighteen years into the future, the Marauders plus Lily Evans find themselves facing truths they'd have rather stayed ignorant about. Will they be able to get back? And how will the new knowledge influence their lives? Ship(s): James/Lily, Sirius/Remus, unrequited Peter/Remus, hints of Ron/Hermione Current Review Request Count: 1/5
melonknee Posted December 18, 2020 Author Posted December 18, 2020 @prideofsnowfairies I wanted to make sure I took the time to sprinkle a few reviews, and I'm all done now!! @Felpata_Blizzard sorry it took me a minute, I've been such a slow reader as I get busy lately but you have it now!
Guest pookha Posted December 19, 2020 Posted December 19, 2020 Story + link: Growing Up Lovegood-Potter by pookha (M) Warnings: Sexual Content, Substance Abuse, Violence Breakups, Bullying, Discrimination Anything to focus on? Whatever you want! Genre: angst, AU, Romance, Drama Summary: Harry's had a hard time since Luna left him for Rolf, but he seems to be getting better. Lily Lovegood-Potter and her twin Pandora Lovegood-Potter start at Hogwarts and discover Quidditch. Ship(s): Harry/Luna (past), Harry/Cho, eventual Harry/Gabrielle (not a harem fic, this takes place over multiple years), OC/OC Current Review Request Count: __/3 ?? I'm not sure what this is asking? This story follows Harry and his twin girls with Luna--Lily and Pandora. It also follows Harry over their Hogwarts years as he tries to figure out who is killing the children of Death-Eaters. It's in series after Waxing and Waning, but knowledge of those 2 fics is not necessary for this.
