ugh.. going on the wranglers lj drives me crazy. there's sooo many of these supposed great lost fics, but honestly...of all the ones i've been sent, 271horses' have been the only ones that lived up to the hype. and they have comparatively less hype surrounding them than other ones :/

#this is purely a me issue and i admit this upfront lol cause i am insanely picky with what i read #so honestly like these fics will probably do for other normal not weird people what they dont do for me lol but like...yeah ive just been #disappointed #there are like 6 big fics that get talked about a lot that i sought out bc the hype was so huge but since i got and read them ive been like #ehhh?#maybe its just a weird feedback loop thing tho #like maybe these alright fics had a lot of early members who were fond of them and then when the authors deleted them and purged their accs #ppl were scrambling to keep them saved and they were mourned super publically and then other people who werent in the lj from the start were #seeing ppl talk abt this fic and they were like 'can u send it to me' and this just went on and on until it just got a lot of word of mouth #traction and now theyre just those fics that everyone talks about that you feel like youre missing out on if you havent read them #i guess its weird for me bc theres TONS of legendary fics in my former fandom and no joke ive only ever been disappointed in one of them #like each other one has lived up to the legacy and so im just not used to the inverse where ive only found 2 that i absolutely love
