I'm right there with you on the peeves as a reader. I've actually quit reading several WC fics because Peter starts spouting a long list of endearments at Neal and that is NOT the Peter I know. I mean, this is a man who most of the time calls his wife "Elizabeth" or "El" so why would he be all cutesy with Neal?
And transitions don't have to be time consuming in fic so it annoys me when writers feel they can gloss over them. I'm totally taken out of a fic if I don't know how a character got from Point A to Point B.
Another distraction is when a character seems to have three hands. As in the character has their arms (plural) wrapped around the other person, yet they are also giving them a hand job. Huh?
