Increasing Mood using songs.

Fanfiction Pet Peeves (Tips & How-to's)

Rant/Tip #009

 

Using a song that doesn't match the mood of what your writing? If the song's not going to match, then don't even use it.

 

Example:

Listen to this song as you read ^^

Sun Mi was dragged into the warehouse by the men who had kidnapped her earlier. Only seeing her boyfriend, Yixing on a chair hands tied up and ankles secured on chains.

"Oppa.." she muttered, "OPPA WAE?!"

In a blink of an eye, Mi Young comes from the back doors, "You see what happens when your family messes around with mine? Your precious little boyfriend will get hurt because of your stupid actions." She looked at the male hostage and turned to her men, "Take him, and kill him." 

Sun Mi's eyes widened, "No, don't kill Yixing, please. He shouldn't even be a part of this. Please, let him go and take me instead." 

"Jagiya.. Don't, I can't have you dead. I will kill myself before your parents can kill me." Yixing begged.

Mi Young rolled her eyes, "Just take the ing both of them and end it. Love stories don't always end with a happy ending, just to let you know."

-Fin- 

My Reaction: 

 

 I am not lying, I really remember hearing a song like this for an angst kind of chapter. Like.. Are.You.Freaking.Kidding.Me. Use a ballad like Only Tears by INFINITE. 

 

Okay, so it may not have happened to everyone. But it happened to me. I'd be all, "U srs bro. You kidding me? No, just no. Just don't add freaking music if it's not going to freaking fit in." when I see it happen another time. -.-

 

-rachelonewchicken~ (yixing's wife, rachel).

Chapter 18: I HATE it when writers write a really good description thing, and then when you actually read the story, the grammar and spelling is disgraceful. I'm just like ASDFGHJKL GO BACK TO SCHOOL ALREADY! It annoys the hell out of me.

Chapter 21: This would probably tie in with the Mary-Sue chap, but I think it deserves its own mention-- stories where EVERY single member of a group falls in love with ONE girl. I especially see it in Super Junior and EXO fandom, like 12 guys in love with one perfect girl that understands them all...There are no words for this...and then to make it worse, all of the boya act out-of-character and backstab/fight with each other in order to get the girl, and then she makes some cliche declaration about not fighting each other and dates them all at the same time and nobody ever calls her a ____ because it's twoo luv >_>. Rant over, sorry about that, once I get started I dont stop.

Chapter 21: I have a slight visual impairment and some fonts just make me cry, and I mean this literally, as size 8 curly wurly script in a pastel colour burns my eyeballs. I hate it when I read a really good description in size 12 black arial and then chapter 1....bam!!! Bye bye eyeballs.

If the story seems worth it, I have been known to send a message to get the font changed. And god bless those who do. And screw those who don't!

Chapter 17: May I rant here too? O3O

Oh well since we're talking about fan fiction pet peeves. I hate it when the story is just absolutely random when the plot line is so serious or if the twist is just so ____ing stupid. Like this one Big Bang story I read, the girl couldn't even defend herself in the first chapters then all of a sudden she's the mother ____ing best female gangster out there? It's just wrong or the author should've just foreshadowed the twist in some way so that we wouldn't be sitting here saying "WTF?"

Chapter 11: I agree too, 'When it All Collapses' is one of my favorite fanfictions of all time! :) It's so beautifully written :)
