The thing that's so frustrating with Dokuga is that they managed to fangirl really really really awesome fic along with D-: fic, at the same time.
I'm not a part of S/K fandom, but most of the love for fics like Tales from the House of the Moon that I've seen actually comes from people based in other ships. Dokuga seems too caught up in its fanon and fantasy to appreciate fic like that.
That's why it hurt me so much when they turned their backs on my work because I quit the site, because I thought they were better than that. Instead, they went into the crazycakes fold, and I'm a little horrified I ever wanted/desired their attention in the first place.
LOL, I sum this up with "Well, they do ship Sess/Kag". Try not to worry about it. 99.99% of Sess/Kag shippers are batshit insane by default, even if they try to hide it.
I'm just adjusting that desire down (several notches) to what is perhaps realistic to obtain. I honestly don't give a shit what "greater" fandom thinks of me, but I am interested in keeping the friends and fans I already have.
This is a good way to look at it.
Holy shit could pan-fandom use a shot of maturity, straight in the vein o.O
But then the entire earth might implode from sheer impossibility. And we don't want that to happen, do we? LOL
