Review Detail of RemielDucrot in Soul Shard Captor [BL]

Over the past two months SSC has become my favorite BL novel on this site. It is a masterpiece filled with humor and fluff, delivering daily dose of sugar to those who read it. I'm now like a child on Christmas morning, getting up excited knowing that a new chapter is waiting for me to read.  If you are a BL lover, heck, even you aren't, this is something you should definitely give a try. But beware, you might find yourself with your heart stolen, thinking about it every day ;)  And if you find that the writing style isn't to your taste (I can't possibly imagine why, but everyone's taste is different so surely there will be someone who won't like it), you can just stop and go find something else to read. No one is forcing you to read, and you aren't even paying anything to read it.  Just don't come here to rage over something stupid like the emoji usage and bring down the rating of this gem. So what if it uses emojis? What's wrong with having "pictures" mixed with text? If J.K.Rowling decided to print a version of Harry Potter where there are emojis inside, would it become a trash book? Don't be ridiculous. You might personally find that the emojis aren't fitting, but you can just ignore it and concentrate on the beautiful essence of the remainder.  Don't automatically assume that a book is some kind of am*teurish cr*p just if it doesn't use the format that you are used to. SSC isn't. It is as far away from cr*ap as one could possibly go - the writing is fluid, no grammar or spelling mistakes, there are no plot holes or glaring logic flaws, characters are well developed and very lovable, the plot is smoothly and steadily building up, the romance is to die for, etc.  The craft of this novel is exquisite, but of course, no matter how beautiful something is to one person, there will always be people who find it ugly. It is a matter of taste, not an inherent flaw in the work itself.  I've read someone complain that the start is vague. You only feel that way because you have gotten used to information dumps in the beginning of novels and SSC has no information dumps whatsoever. It feeds you information gradually which is great, no long texts of boring info, no filler text, no sections you just want to skip because you don't really care, etc. If it is vague, and the questions you have aren't explained soon after, then you'll just have to wait until it becomes relevant and gets elaborated further.  Someone also mentioned tone flip-flopping? Yeah, it's what makes it so funny! It leads your mind in one direction and then tugs it in reverse creating this surprise comedic effect. It's the punchline of a joke. Sigh, what I'm trying to say is, it's ok if this isn't the type of humor you enjoy, we all have our preferences. But don't mistake what others consider great humor for bad writing!  And what do you mean maybe the author will come back and edit it? What's there to edit? The "overuse" of emojis? Um, objection! I don't want them edited out!
