It drives me *batshit* when you're reading a fic that is from, say, Sam's pov and suddenly you have three or four lines of what *Dean* is thinking/feeling, and then you go back to Sam....that drives me *nuts*. Just - no.
And i hate it when my boys - any of my boys - are made into weepy messes, or get hysterical over nothing, or can't actually *do their job*. Gah.
Also, screeching Americanisms in Spike's mouth make me say bye-bye, as do screeching Britishisms in Sam'n'Dean's mouths. Spike might mock someone by using an American word or term, but he doesn't talk like a California surfer-dude, and never will.
And Sam'n'Dean do not say 'whilst', or pay with 'notes', or do 'maths'. *flails*
OMG. Yes. And 'S'not' for 'It's not'. Please, please, please. Spike is *not* an undereducated Cockney who drops his h's and never says 'ing' but always 'in'. Gaaaaaah.
