And You Crashed Into My Life (please Won't You Stay By My Side)

and you crashed into my life (please won't you stay by my side)

asthmaticbee

Summary:

Izuku never gets One For All, and never goes to UA. Away from Bakugou, he finds that most people don’t care about his Quirklessness as much, and actually makes friends in his class.

This, however, gives rise to a new problem - namely lots of confessions to the sweet and smart boy. In his attempts to make them stop, he lies that he’s dating UA star Todoroki Shouto, certain the lie will never come to light.

Sucks that Shouto stops a villain attack on his school while interning with Endeavor. Trying to keep up the lie Izuku takes Shouto aside and asks him to play along for his classmates.

He doesn’t expect Shouto to come back to his school and keep up the act.

It bugs me that so many people's default example of published fanfic is 50 Shades of Grey.

What about West Side Story, a famous modern AU of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet?

What about Dante's Inferno, a self-insert RPF if I've ever seen one?

What about Wicked, a pre-canon AU of The Wizard of Oz?

Hell, what about Percy Jackson? There's definitely an argument to be made that that's a modern AU of various Greek myths.

Humans have been writing fanfic as long as they have been telling stories. In about the year 20 BC, our dear Roman poet Ovid wrote the Heroides, a series of aggrieved "letters" from the female characters of famous myths to their respective male heroes. Are you telling me that Ovid, writing a letter from the perspective of Queen Dido to Aeneas -- Aeneas, whose fantastical adventures were put into poem by Virgil -- wasn't writing an outsider-POV fic? A fic that is, in fact, translated in Latin classes world-wide today!

There is so much famous fanfic out there, but people tend to forget that it is fanfic once it becomes mainstream enough. And as a consequence of that, people who aren't into fandom don't see how beautiful fanfic is, and some members of fandom feel shame associated with writing and reading fic. But fanfic is beautiful, and it is something humans have always done, and it is nothing to be ashamed about.

So if you ever find yourself in a situation to give an example of published fic, think outside the box. Remember that published fanfics hide in plain sight; once they're famous enough, we no longer think of them as fanfic. And never forget that fanfic is a very, very old human tradition, and your ancestors who partook in it would not have wanted you to feel ashamed of it.

You know that cat au I had?

Yea so now I'm thinking about that again, the cats I mean. So, Danny moves to Gotham and opens a cafe that sells a lot of stuff from breakfast to lunch to dinner to desserts to drinks, etc, etc.

He started it on Vlad's money, of course.

He wasn't all that popular, maybe one of two customers a day, most of which were regulars.

Then he started taking in stray cats around his area and that somehow lead to Damian Wayne popping up at his doorstep (yes he does live above his cafe thank you very much) and giving him a ton of exposure because, well, he's Damian Wayne.

Who then become his irregular regular. Mostly because he was, well, a very rich fruitloop who decided that he wanted to stop by Danny's cafe for whatever reason.

Most likely the cats.

Definitely the cats.

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something
