Forgetting tags for a moment: if you are already searching in your fandoms/pairings/favourite tags, what in a summary will cause you to click it over any other story?

There needs to be a summary, even if the tags provide enough of an idea of what the story’s about, just give me a sentence from the fic.
No “just read it i guess”, “i suck at summaries”, “it’s better than it sounds trust me” or any similar self-deprecation.
Proper spelling/punctuation is a must.
Generally a summary won’t win me over if the tags don’t grab me, but if it’s competently written and sounds interesting I’ll give it a shot.
