This is where the fish lives.

Comment to be added.

Here's the post that keeps all the chapters linked so you can access them easily without sifting through all the other crap on my LJ.

Mass Disclaimer: I do not own any of the fics I spork on this LiveJournal, nor at any other communities I happen to post the sporkings. I am simply sporking to criticize the work in my own fashion. The fics themselves are the properties of those who originally wrote them and posted them online, thus making them public domain for anyone who wishes to criticize them in any fashion they like.

The fandoms in which I spork do not belong to me, either. They belong to their respective creators, producers, publishers, etc.

Agent Sands does not belong to me--he is the property of Robert Rodriguez and Johnny Depp.

Professor Snape does not belong to me--he is the property of JK Rowling. We simply borrow those two from time to time to spork some particularly bad material.

All right, folks—chapters seventeen and eighteen before we see chapter nineteen, which I will link to after guardians_song posts it. I hope you all enjoy. Now I’m off for that well-deserved break I need.

( Chapter Seventeen: Serpent Tongue )

( Chapter Eighteen: Christmas Confessions )

I CAN’T. STOP. SPORKING HER. I seriously wanted to take a break for a while from this! I sat down, and suddenly, I was sporking her again!

Okay, just a warning to everybody. This author touches on some pretty sensitive material in this chapter. I remained as neutral as I possibly could.

( Chapter Sixteen: Written in Stone )

Okay. If any of the chapters thus far haven’t made you mad, I commend you. But if these two chapters somehow don’t make you angry in the slightest, then you are from a different planet. You have to be.

Oh, and while I thought I couldn’t piggy-back another chapter on it, it turned out to be not as long as I thought it would, so here are two.

( Chapter Fourteen: Looney Lovegood )

( Chapter Fifteen: Secrets and Samhain )

Okay, very, very short chapter. But I couldn’t spork it, nor could I sum it up well like I usually do because it was SO FRICKIN’ BORING. But I couldn’t piggy-back it on the next one, as it’s very long. So you all got it now. Sorry about that. I have also decided to leave the "Child of Grace" sporkings unlocked, since I announced that I was sporking them over on deleterius.

( Chapter Thirteen: Dante’s Special Delivery )

This chapter isn’t particularly long, but it’s very enraging. Although it’s nothing like the following one. It’s why I might be taking a break from “Child of Grace.” I tried sporking it in tandem with this one, so I wouldn’t post such a short chapter, but I couldn’t do it. Forgive me.

Anyway, on with the show!

( Chapter Eleven: Child of Fate )

You'd think that, this being the climax of Year One for dearest little Holly, it would be more exciting. But remember all the "excitement" of Chapter 9? Well, this one is worse.

( Chapter Ten: For Those Who Bring Harm )

Moving forward. This is a dull, dull, DULL chapter. Do not be surprised if you fall asleep while reading it. I almost did.

( Chapter Nine: Demons and Dreams )

And here we are, another chapter completed. And you know what? Her version of Blaise Zabini no longer irritates me—he frightens me. You’ll see why in a moment.

( Chapter Eight: A Holly, Jolly Christmas )

Well, here’s chapter seven of “Child of Grace.” I pretty much scripted the whole thing, but wasn’t ready to take on chapter eight, so it’s rather short. I don’t know about you, but this one REALLY made me mad.

( Chapter Seven: Holly’s Wild Ride )

Chapter six! More Slytherin apologist behavior! Whoopie!!! See icon for further thoughts on this chapter.

*Sorry about the LJ cut--for some reason, I couldn't get it right three times in a row.

( Chapter Six: Halloween Havoc )

And so, I double-fibbed. I said I wouldn’t get it out this week and ta-da, I did! I was surprised myself, really. But here it is, in all its ugly glory. It was a particularly bad chapter, so I hope you guys don’t choke on it.

( Chapter Five: Trains, Truces, and a Turning Point )

guardians_song sporked the badfic "Childhood's End", which is essentially wank from a one bohemianspirit over on Snapedom. It was very funny. I recommend it.

Part I
Part II

So, here we are with chapters three and four of “Child of Grace.” Remember how I said it’s going to get worse before it gets better—and how it doesn’t get any better? Yeah. Keep that in mind, please.

( Chapter Three: On the Road Again! )

( Chapter Four: Diagonally Delightful )

There are just some times where you find a fic that…needs to be sporked. The whole thing. Which is oftentimes a problem, especially for fics that are forty chapters long and over 250,000 words. But then again, you do have some people who are out of their flippin’ minds and undertake these sorts of sporkings because they are crazy.

Take me, for instance. I’ve sporked all of Rose Potter, have nearly sporked all of Ariana Black, took it upon myself to script and spork Jennifer Craw, who has no less than TWENTY fics in her particular series, and now I find THIS fic. “Child of Grace,” by Lazy Azar de Tameran. I think I officially qualify as crazy, or at least thorough. And this fic needs to be sporked. It’s got angst out the wazoo, Slytherin glorifying, Weasley bashing, “I’ve read ahead” syndrome in spades, Sue-per powers, and more. It’s really a newer, Slytherin-based version of “Rose Potter” on some levels. And as much as I hate Rose Potter, part of me misses the knowledge that I could always go back and spork her—even though now I can’t, because I finished her. *sniff* You know, now that she’s not around anymore, I kind of miss her. I never really appreciated her until she was gone. *emo tear*

So I need a new project. Jennifer Craw bores me too much, I’ve decided, to start her up now, and I can’t start a sporking when I’m bored. This one excites me. It pleases me. It amuses me. It makes me derisively laugh. And it needs to be sporked—it’s got 472 reviews, all positive, and it needs a negative one for a change. So here I am, undertaking the sporking, doing my best to try, and hopefully succeeding. So here it is, ladies and gentlemen. My newest project:

Child of Grace by Lady Azar de Tameran

AU. The Girl Who Lived discovers the wizarding world and unearths secrets that could change her life forever... or end it. Third Year.
