It's admirable that you'll read a fic all the way to the end. I sometimes click and close based on length, or the first two or three paragraphs, or because my boss just came into the office...

Yeah, when writing slash and relying on the same pronoun over and over, the descriptors can be used to help distinguish the characters from one another. It's when they're incredibly vague, or when they're used out of control, that they get really bothersome.

I think "wall of text" occurs less often on lj, where it's really easy to format as you type.
