fanfictions tags/saying I need to exist
Me and my friends use these when talking about Fanfics, and it always makes me so sad when people don’t know what I’m talking about so here ya go:
-Eddy-fying a character (The name is because of Eddie from Stranger Things, where a bunch of children or Twitter addicts take a character, remove true or personality, and then babygirl over them for a couple of months before, then when they give the character a bad reputation, decide to leave the fandom and ruin a different character. Minority characters that are Eddified are usually whitewashed, made straight, get rlly p¡ssy when people headcannon them as Neurodivergent, etc.)
-One-Month Fandoms (Name meaning is because the fandom just lasts a month or two before dying off again/Fandoms that re-emerge ((or are created)) for about a couple of months before being given a bad reputation and abandoned again. Examples include Stranger Things and Wednesday.)
-Anatomically Accurate (Basically fanfictions that have either heavy gore and guts n’ stuff)
-FBI Watchlist (fanfictions that made the author’s search history sketchy enough to “theoretically put them onto an FBI Watchlist”)
-Writing Lore (art lore but for Fanfic writers)
-Hyperfixiation Crossovers (Crossovers that don’t make sense, but they’re the authors interests so they want to see their interests combined so they don’t need to pick between which one of their interests they’ll write a fanfic about. It’s called HYPERfixiations just bc I like writing them and I’m neurodivergent and half of these crossovers are just neurodivergent chaos so I figured that hyperfixiation fit the best)
What are your favorite fanfic genres or tags?
Mine is angst, hurt/comfort, whump, fluff, and “character needs a hug”. My tastes are pretty basic, I know. But nothings better than reading stories about your precious little blorbos going through pain and suffering and then rewarding them at the end before starting ALL over again. :)
