Meta: Faces of H/C
Jul. 23rd, 2007 10:29 amI've been on an h/c reading kick since my illness, and it got me to thinking of the many different types of h/c, and how my particular situation would *not* have made a good h/c plot (oh, alas.)
This led to the following categorizations. Please feel free to add your own, hopefully with Sentinel or dS examples:
- Stubbed-toe h/c — When a character suffers an injury or illness that is completely common to everyday man and woman, yet the author has chosen to explore the character recovering from a head-cold, for example. (Warning: This type of story can and may involve some Unnecessary Bathing.)
