• Fiction Rating Key Here
• "NR" = "Not Rated"
• Authors' given ratings usually trusted, but "general audiences" and "K" or "K+" are increased to "FRT" because of original BtVS/AtS series' ratings. Occasional stronger ratings given when chance glance shows they're needed. "F-bomb" and/or gratuitous coarse language marked as FRMA-AL, no matter how used. Graphic depictions of human-on-human violence and/or abuse deferred to next day's editor for private life reasons. Thanks for understanding. :-)

• Fiction Rating Key Here
• "NR" = "Not Rated"
• Authors' given ratings usually trusted, but "general audiences" and "K" or "K+" are increased to "FRT" because of original BtVS/AtS series' ratings. Occasional stronger ratings given when chance glance shows they're needed. "F-bomb" and/or gratuitous coarse language marked as FRMA-AL, no matter how used. Graphic depictions of human-on-human violence and/or abuse deferred to next day's editor for private life reasons. Thanks for understanding. :-)
