- frogspace: The slashy ROMANCE that took over my weekend [German entry] - Ich rede hier von Folgen, weil alle anderen das auch tun, und weil hier etwas ganz eigenartiges in Bezug auf Canon abgeht, das mehr Ähnlichkeit mit der Idee von Canon in RPF als FPF zu tun hat, obwohl Verbotene Liebe eine Fernsehserie ist. -
