Thanks! If you can provide a summary? Do. Although I can go to fanfic.net.
I don't mind the vampire=murderer thing too much. Depends on how it's written, I guess. If that makes sense. My past experience in criminal defense has ruined lots of cop/criminal defense stories for me. They just ring false somehow. That said, I'll forgive a good writer just about anything - if they can show me a new side of a character.
Completely with your rant! No apologies needed. I wonder if Honor H has written a chapter on these tendencies in her OBAFU story yet? I don't remember it, but it's possible I missed one. For some reason writers fear over-using the word said or he said or she said or even the characters names. I learned long ago - don't fear over-doing this. It's far less distracting to the reader.
