#fanfic genre

[rorywritesjunk]

Ok curious what folks like with fanfiction genre.

[brigitoshaughnessy]

Unpopular opinion??

As a fanfic reader and writer, I don’t identify with any specific genre. I write a lot of ship and angst, but really… sometimes people get deathly fevers so there’s a little whump in there. My genre is reality. It all happens to us. So whatever you write, I’ll probably read it.

As someone who has been around fanfic for 20+ years, the segmenting of fanfic that has occurred over that time is really strange to me. Like apparently everything in the world, it can be divisive and weird. Let me just love these characters and this world that we both enjoy together even if we love them for different reasons.

Fandom should be unifying.

I assume this could also apply within the Hanna-Barbera fandom; hence, I'd appreciate yout feelings in this regard and respect. Especially with the more esoteric and obscure characters glossed over since the "Golden Age" (1957-1965) and many of the later characters obviously reduced to pap and pablum by network and activist pressure, which have obvious possibilities.

A classic western tale

writing reader inserts is so funny because it's like. yeah you would NOT say that but now you do and you're gonna enjoy it. it's inevitably pouring a part of you into this fic. it's describing your dissociative daydreams in overly detail to everyone searching specifically for food to feed their dissociative daydreams. it's coming up with a hundred different scenarios on how to get railed by your favorite 2D man and yeah his dick is always big and he wants you so badly. it's playing barbie with Y/N who is like an universal OC at this point. it's going on silly little adventures in my mind and taking you all with me. reader inserts i love you so much.

[sohannabarberaesque]

Reblogged in service to the cause of Hanna-Barbera fanfiction aimed at keeping the name and spirit of the Hanna-Barbera studio alive--as well as especially the more obscure and esoteric characters.

I think there’s something to be said for fanfiction that loves canon in a way that’s rude. Like thank you for this wonderful thematic tragedy made out of this character’s entire arc ending in death, it was emotionally and intellectually moving, but also fuck you fuck you fuck you they live, this time and every time they live, they never died, their flaws are not their undoing, actually they have no flaws, actually they save everyone, actually who cares about a story, any story, where this one dies, actually i cared about that story so much i made a new one, actually i cared so much i unmade the old one, you gave me morals and i left them for the mortal, but they’re mine now and i will never let them die, actually thank you, actually fuck you, strongly worded letter to follow

A kiss for canon and spit in its face all at once, it’s great

Fics: "You were the smallest thing the Task Force 141 had ever seen. You fit in the palm of Simon's hand with your tiny, itty bitty frame. Soap carried you in his pocket."

House keeps annoying Wilson about how he's definitely cheating on his wife. Surprisingly, he isn't this time. However, because House keeps being annoying, Wilson decides to screw with him by deciding (optionally: pretending) to cheat on his wife after all, letting House "sneakily" investigate and stalk him like always.

The big dramatic reveal is that Wilson is cheating with a man. Wilson is so thrilled by the whole situation because it's so scandalous and a level up from his previous pranks. He gets excitedly nervous about going on dates with the guy (because House might see them in public), his heart flutters when the guy visits Wilson at work and flirts with him in his office (totally just because it'll sell the image to House), he gets a boner when he's making out with the guy (because... House won't suspect that it's all a prank??).

When House discovers them, he wants to explode the other guy with his mind out of jealousy. This makes Wilson hornier for some strange reason.

Something something and then they kiss

cute dates with boyfriend!wayv

kun invites you over to his apartment to cook dinner and have a relaxing wine night. except maybe it wasn't that relaxing since you both turn it into a tipsy masterchef cooking competition. although you are quite intimidated by his cooking skills, you don't let that stop you from trying your best (which wasn't very good). kun, being the nicest guy ever, lets you win. the winner chooses the loser's punishment. you make him wear an embarrassing apron that says "kiss the cook but don't touch the buns" kun complies and prays the pictures you took of him on your phone never end up in yangyang's hands, or else he would never hear the end of it.

ten loves volunteering at the animal shelter, especially a shelter with lots of cats who need extra love and attention. you and ten spend the whole day playing with the cats, feeding them, cleaning out their cages, and brushing their fur. he almost wants to adopt yet another cat or two or three, but you gently remind him this isn't in real life neko atsume so he cannot collect all the cats in the world (unfortunately). ten's eyes soften when he sees you cuddling a senior kitty and he can't help but think to himself he wants to raise many cats with you in the future.

winwin would take you to the beach on a sunny day to enjoy the light breeze and salty air until the sun sets. you notice how he doesn't even try to hide the fact that he is checking you out. winwin compliments you endlessly and gives you one of his jackets to cover up because he hates the thought of other people staring at you. throughout the day, you help each other reapply sunscreen, and you giggle whenever he struggles to squeeze the tube that barely has any sunscreen left, because it sounds exactly like someone after they eat taco bell. during moments he thinks you aren't looking, winwin manages to find a pretty pearly white seashell among the billions of grains of sand and gives it to you.

xiaojun would invite you over to his place and you guys spend the whole time building legos and geeking out over the newest flower and plant lego sets. he starts sweating when your hand accidentally touches his hand while reaching for the same lego piece, even though you guys are literally dating. silly ahh boy. after you both finish building the set in one sitting, xiaojun makes you one of his famous oreo mug cakes, and he makes sure to lightly blow on the spoonful of batter to cool it down before feeding it to you and watching you eat it (he is so whipped for you)

hendery would take you to a hong kong style cafe. it's cozy and cute, and has lots of history behind how the shop came to be what it is today. you have trouble deciding what to order since you are unfamiliar with cantonese food but hendery excitedly explains each dish in detail just for you. once you decide what to get, hendery orders for you in cantonese, which makes you fall in love with him all over again. his eyes light up when you show interest in learning a few canto phrases and he feels his heart melt a little when you repeat after his words and ask if your pronounciation was okay.

yangyang loves going to the arcade section in the amusement park. the bright, colorful lights, silly circus music, and sound effects from the machines makes him feel like he's reliving his childhood again. yangyang tries to show off his claw machine skills because he wants to impress you. he literally tries so hard and finally wins a plushie for you after his like eleventh attempt. while yangyang is rambling on about how the "claw machine was rigged" and how "it wasn't a skill issue" on his part, you give him a quick kiss on the cheek, which makes him shut up immediately and start blushing furiously.

boyfriend!harry headcanons

-> Every day starts with Harry's sleepy face pressed into your neck, his breath tickling your ear as he mutters "good mornin', lovie." He steals kisses between yawns, his warm hand tracing patterns on your back until you're both giggling, tangled in the sheets.

-> He knows your perfect cup of coffee, the one that makes you smile like sunshine. He surprises you with it in bed, accompanied by a plate of fluffy pancakes or French toast, shaped into hearts, of course.

-> He pretends to scoff when you put on a chick flick, but you catch him stealing glances at the screen, his lips twitching with a suppressed smile. He hums along to the cheesy soundtrack, his voice husky and low, sending shivers down your spine.

-> One minute you're planning grocery shopping, the next he's whisking you away to a hidden beach for a sunset picnic, complete with a spontaneous bonfire and stargazing. He lives for creating memories that make your heart skip a beat.

-> He believes in you more than you believe in yourself. He cheers you on at work, celebrates your victories (big or small), and holds you tight when you doubt yourself. He whispers encouragement in your ear, his voice laced with unwavering faith.

-> He leaves little love notes tucked in your purse, on the fridge, even in the pages of your favorite book. He hides tiny trinkets for you to find – a seashell from your first beach trip, a vintage postcard with a romantic quote, a single, perfect rose.

-> He pulls out your chair at restaurants, opens doors, and insists on carrying your groceries. He walks on the outside of the sidewalk to shield you from the rain, and offers his jacket when you're cold. It's the little things that make your heart melt.

-> His hands wander under your shirt, sending goosebumps erupting on your skin. He whispers sweet nothings in your ear, promises of forever and endless love. He makes you feel like the only person in the world, cherished and adored.

-> He strums your favorite song on his guitar, his voice husky and soulful, just for you. He pulls you close, swaying to the rhythm, his gaze never leaving yours. He turns any room into a dance floor, his laughter echoing as you spin, lost in your own little world.

-> He's your rock, your confidant, your safe harbor. He listens without judgment, offers advice without pushing, and celebrates your individuality. He loves you for who you are, flaws and all, and that's the most beautiful love story of all.

[sircantus]

Ngl i sometimes feel this giant truckload of SHAME whenever writing my fics bc i am not. Faithful to the dsmp lore nor the characters i am an AU maker first and foremost and its fun its great fun but sometimes it feels like im just setting fire to canon and tearing it for parts and its like. Disrespectful to the story? To the love and effort it was made of. Here is what was, and here is my pale imitation, born from silly inspiration. Its nothing like the original at all. I guess in some sense thats what makes it so good but i dunno I cant help but wanna say sorry for shanking your blorbo in the back alley and stealing half their personality to slap onto my new blorbo which is also the blorbo but. Not rly. New and imagined blorbo. Blorbo

[andypantsx3]

urgh i was listening to a podcast where they alluded to some published romance authors dunking on other authors for writing "gratuitous" and "less tasteful" smut and it reminded me of the time i also accidentally implied something like that on here while i was talking about the less descriptive vanilla shit i write and i want to build a time machine and go back and break my own fingers before i could type that reeee
