Oh no! :( Please don't be worried about that. First off, I'm nobody! lol A nobody who flails a lot. Well, not so much lately, which is beside the point. I don't believe that fan fiction should get a pass for being poorly written just because it's a hobby. I can be ridiculously picky, I know. But I'm not entirely unreasonable, promise. Just a bit of a blowhard with too much time on her hands now and then. :)

I can handle almost any unusual narrative device or stylistic flourish if it makes sense and is done well. Just what's done well is hard to gauge, of course. It's very much a case of knowing it when you see it, and that can be different for everyone. Not to be a total suck up, but I have every confidence that you know what you're doing with those unusual narrative devices you mentioned. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Shorter answer: please don't be concerned. If you can tell me now that there is no quasi-bestiality (that I have to say that is a concern makes me sad pants, but it's happened, and I've never been able to get past the weirdness to continue reading the story. CANNOT UNSEE!) or shape-shifting, pretty much I feel confident in saying there will be no flailing from me about anything you, specifically, do.

I also get painfully long-winded and unfocused when I'm tired, which I am at the moment. Apologies for the rambling.

"Yay" right back atcha, btw. Woo, libraries! \o/
