No, no, no! Go away! *makes cross sign with fingers*

Here, watch Rolling in the Deep instead.

The awful thing about Charles/Erik is that there's a horrifically large backlog of unfinished fic and it's killing me. I try not to read the WIPs because I can't stand the suspense, but somehow I got sucked into this amazingly, heartbreakingly brilliant thing at the kink meme and it seems to have stalled out on July 21st. Anon, if you can hear me, oh please, finish this!

You WIP link reminds me of a question I have about how these kink memes work: That post reached 10000 comments, so where do the updates go after that, if the author hasn't stalled, and how do you find them? I've seen links to overflow posts, and update posts, and such, but I'm just lost navigating them. Do you have to search through all of that and hope you find a trace of your WIP somewhere?

I applaud the efforts of the mods organizing things like this, but I can't help but think that you are working against the infrastructure. I find this whole setup really inconvenient. Usually once I found a WIP to follow through delicious I just track the thread, and get both comment and new part updates (which is sort of spammy), but then I don't notice when the post is full, and no updates come anymore. I have found only one of the WIPs I'd been tracking again in that overflow post, so I guess the others just aren't being continued, or not yet, but seriously. At least back in mailing list days WIP updates landed in your inbox without you having to complete some sort of scavenger hunt to track down part. /crotchety oldtimer voice

I follow too many WIPs for manual URL checking to be convenient. Currently it's 26 X-Men WIPs, most on kinkmemes.

I join you in hoping that WIP comes back to life. So good, sigh!

Thanks for the link! I'm perfectly willing to be sucked into brilliant WIPs, even though the three others that I'm reading have all stalled.*bangs head*

DAMN that is GORGEOUS. (And I actually left feedback this time! Instead of being too shy! Even if it was incoherent!)

You DID NOT just do that to me. (Altho I don't know why I am complaining, given The Inside and the show about VR. Oh Inside, how I miss you, and we barely even met....)

-- OH MY GOD, and I had already left a comment on this post. (Albeit not with the Inside ref.) Need more coffee.
