Fanfiction fans, I'm just curious; what do you like in fanfiction?
We all have different preferences and I'm just kinda interested what everyone's motivations are. What do you like to read and what do you like to write. Is it the same? Are you into a ship or do you prefer everything as canon as possible? Are you looking to go back to the world of the show or are you interested in proper weirdness and original ideas?
For some reason I'm really drawn to h/c, I write casefics but I almost never read casefics (because they are hard to write and not everyone can pull it off). And I'm not really looking for porn or romance but if I come across it and it's well written then I do like it. And I love humour and good prose.
What about you?

I read Johnlock almost every day. I prefer long fics. There must be more than just sex (and preferably not too much sex as I often read in the tram). My favourite fics: Sherlock and John are falling in love or they are realizing they are in love the whole time. I love humour too, mostly irony, but I love angst, h/c as well. I also read a lot of AU fics, I like historic ones, apocalypse AU, teenlock... When it's well written, I'm not picky at all.

We do have a quite similar thread already, it can be found here:

Do we? We do indeed. And I thought I'd read everything by now.

General friendship, for one thing; slash is out! And I love a good John H/C story.
