What kind of things can I mention? Well, I've read a lot of AUs (courtesy of ff.net trends), so I know well what I like. Stronger characters, raised by someone else, a small change has bigger consequences, time travel, foreshadowing, changing the past to effect the future, characters that are IC but actually seem real (not the ohmygodsoperfect kind-of Mary-Sues mascaraing under familiar names), OC characters that actually fit... I can go on and on and on.
Yay, good cliff hanger! I wasn't quite sure if you were trying for that or not... Yeah, compared to some. Like when a character dies/blacks out and then it says -End of Chapter- or -To Be Continued...- makes me want to scream or throttle the author. Sometimes it's a good kind of violence that comes to mind, but most of the time, well... I can understand --I'm an author myself-- but sometimes...
Long comments are cool. You talk about stuff in them.

Nice chatting again, Bard Linn-san.
