Is the fic enjoyable to read?

Badfic is badfic because it isn't written well. (Yeah, a Captain Obvious). If the story all in itself is good, then it isn't a badfic.

Take Shadow Cristal Mage's "Nanoha Takamachi of 2814". OOCness is rampant, but the story is really well written. Yeah, it's a crackfic, but it has also an overarching plot. A truly masterpiece.

The two major warning bells of a badfic are bad grammar and flimsy plot. (For example, the one I posted just under this has a few holes in the plot, and a not-so-stellar grammar), and by your review that's not the case.
