Think of the situation above, but instead it is incomplete. What is your reaction?
Hm, should I go for it? I could (and will likely) regret starting it before it was finished...oh well. It sounds like a good story, so...
Oh, I'll have to bookmark this!
I didn't check, and although I have enjoyed it immensely, I now have to worry about the characters till the next chapter...
Oh, who cares anyway? I don't bookmark it because, let be honest, I'll run across it again when it's updated.

What comes to mind when you see the tag, 'Coffee Shop AU'?
Hm. This I either going to be an incredibly cute and fluffy oneshot or it could lead into a full relationship story. Either way it seems good, what do I care?
Let me guess, they're in college?
Aw, sounds cute!
Oh god, please let there not be another spilled drink.
7)
Can you easily understand terms used to describe fanfiction? (ex. Fluff, angst, smut, PWP, etc.)
I totally understand these, they are pretty basic terms.
I get these, but I know there are more complex tags that I don't always get.
No, I don't understand these terms.
8)
Which of these Soulmate AU's have you seen the least (but still have read)? (I have seen all of these types [and many more that wouldn't fit!] at least once, so they are out there)
Seeing color (you see your soulmate and your world gains color)
Seeing a specific color (usually the eye color of your soulmate is gained when eyes are seen)
Touch tattoo (where the place of first contact of the soul mates have a tattoo of some kind appear)
Word tattoo (words that are either the first or last thing your soulmate will say to you)
Shared skin {writing} (where you can write on your skin and your soulmate gets the writing as well)
Shared skin {injuries} (where injuries are shared)
Timer (a clock will countdown until the time you meet your soulmate)
Object {necklace, small figure, etc.} (given at birth usually, either matching halves or will heat up)
Body swap (on the day of the younger soulmates' [blank] birthday the two swap bodies and will swap back when they meet/hug/kiss/etc.)

Do you know of any tropes you have a sweet spot for?
Yes, and when I see that trope tagged I will no doubt read it.
Yes, and I will actively seek out stories with that trope.
Yes, but it won't affect what I read.
No, I find tropes to be redundant.
No, I haven't noticed any tropes.
