fic rating question

[kennahijja]

Just a teensy question for those who have read The Dark Side of Reason *points a bit further down*. R or NC-17? Because I'm not sure whether to try and submit it to FA if it's too high-rated - the poor guys are swamped with fic like nobody's business, and I'd hate to foist a rating decision on them at the moment...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE AMAZING GINA/gmth!
(does June look like a veritable f-list birthday month or what?)

I seem to be in disagreement with the majority of your commenters so far, but I was going to say that if anything is NC-17, it's The Dark Side of Reason.

Very subjectively, I'd agree, but then I went on a smut check spree when trying to rate the last chapter of 'Monsters', and there *are* quite a few rather... racy fics rated R out there (well, I use FA as a searching ground, because there people actually check those things). But now even my vague understanding of borderline cases is just gone...

It's so dangerous, isn't it? I wanted to go on a cleaning spree on my HD the other day, trying to look at some of the stuff there through the eyes of an objective person that's neither into HP nor into smut, but I stopped very quickly - the only realistic result would probably have been a heart attack. *g*

Will you tell us whether the FA guys will accept DSoR or not? It would just be interesting to know where they really draw the line...
