TOTT: My personal expectations for a story is indeed governed by a two part test. The first part is actually securing the interest. Akin to investing, but also somehow different, the first impression of a story often requires me to withhold immediate conclusions and personal bias. To preface, spelling and grammar errors in gratuitous amounts will turn me off irregardless of content.
A lot of times I can see where an author is heading by simply reading the first few paragraphs; this ability to discern direction or even intent has arose as consequence of reading a variety of literary series. So, speaking on this matter: a surprise is certainly a good hook even if it is later on in the introduction to the story.
This is the first burden of proof that the author is tasked with in my opinion. However, your question is phrased in a way which deals more with the ramifications of passing that first test of capturing my interest. Specifically, you have asked how high my expectations are. I will not lie and tell you otherwise: the expectations I have for a story I'm willing to invest in are demanding and continuing. After making a preliminary judgment on the merits of a story's introduction to determine its potential interesting attributes, I have before me a cost-benefit analysis. Do I continue in this particular stagnant world or should I devote my time elsewhere? When a story begins to wane in regards to its hold then I find myself fighting to continue reading, which undoubtedly results in me picking up something else. So, as you can see, that burden is ongoing.
Finally as a side note, the time I spend reading is independent from the time I spend writing.

If a story interests me, my expectations are typically low. I don't expect my life to be changed or to look at the world of Pokémon differently henceforth. Mostly I just want the story to come to a conclusion and not to do anything totally stupid along the way.

>Topic of the Thread: When reading a story that interests you, how high are your expectations for it?

Besides the usual standards of proper grammar/entertainment value, any story that I consider both "interesting" and good must have the essential components of a high quality story:

-A climactic battle sequence (preferably several). No violence = no me gusto. One sided beatdowns against a major antagonist are also acceptable so long as at one point said villain proved to be a sufficient threat to the main protagonist. Good battle sequences are a tricky business to write sometimes but on a fundamental level they should serve as clashes of ideology as well as fists. Watch Rurouni Kenshin or Fist of the North Star if you want to see how it should be done.

-A sufficient dose of vitamin angst. This can take the form of emotional breakdowns, angry debates followed by periods of self reflection, or dramatic speeches leading to self doubt among the heroes and/or antagonists. Character growth of some sort should be an inevitable outcome of this drama.

-A satisfactory ending. Good needs to triumph over evil, or at least end up less fucked over than the main bad guys. Hamlet-esque "everyone dies" endings are verboten. This will often require the author to take some sort of moral stand with their writing, clearly indicating that one side is "right" and the other "wrong" and rewarding the characters appropriately, unless they're writing some sort of existential dreck in which case I don't know what they're doing near Pokemon fanfics in the first place.

Any story failing to meet these standards is sent straight to the gulags and is never again spoken of among civilized tongues.

No, because there are fat, autistic people that hate sunlight.

It's a Russian Wrestling Bear. That's where the "Bear Hug" got its name from.
