Why do people indicate pairing and rating for a drabble? Is some fangirl going to go ballistic about 'you made me waste 30 seconds of my time reading a pairing I *loathe*!!???' Or have the wackymono not realized that stating half the information gleanable from a drabble beforehand immensely reduces the punch of the story? 'This is a joke about a dog who walks into a bar, and the punchline is a pun. So a dog walks into a bar...'

You could change it to "destroys world"/"does not destroy world". An important fact, and easy to label by!

True, but understood only by the cognoscenti. Unsuspecting fangirl clicks link that destroys world and then writes in distress that OMG u shd of said GAIDEN SPOILER!!! cause KONZEN DIES!!!!

"So sorry, will label it "Destroys sun" next time in the hopes that this is more accurate."
