Bad fanficcers, no biscuit.

[kiya]

You've all corrupted me.

Well, you and oneironaut, who seems to occasionally go through the fanfic communities on LJ and quote bits at me. (Which may, to add layers of recursion, be my fault, because they crop up on our friendsfriends and I quoted bits sometimes.)

Anyway. I had commented at me some stuff about a particularly horrible fanfic, not only awful in its concept but in its slaughter of Tolkien canon, and developed a strange urge to write fanfic that doesn't make me want to go have a little lie down about the manglings of the universe.

This is a terribly odd impulse for me to have. I haven't written fanfic since I was five or six. And that was about Smurfs.

We'll see if I actually do it sometime.

I want to see you write a good pornographic fanfic. I challenge you!

[kiya]

I have actually been pondering the question of elven porn in a strange sort of way.

It would not look much like human porn, I suspect, done properly.

[lstone.livejournal.com]

I recall seeing a page wherein somebody had gathered every reference to the mating rituals and sex lives of elves in Tolky's books.

[mindways]

Is that "porn done in the elven style", "porn for elves", "porn about elves", or all of the above?

[kiya]

In the way I ponder it at the moment, I would suspect the answer is 'yes'.

...

Erm. I'll just be over here in the corner with the hobbits, then.

[kiya]

Look out for smurfs.

[brooksmoses]

The world needs a good smurfs-as-hobbits version of LOTR, I think.

[suzanne.livejournal.com]

Love, no.

Pervy hobbit fancier, eh?

[jennaria.livejournal.com]

Yup. (Also am one of the writers whose fanfic lilairen can see on friendsfriends, which is why I'm hiding in the corner behind the smurfs hobbits.)

[kiya]

Have you seen this?

Cannot . . . sleep . . . until . . . I finish . . . so funny . . .

:nodnod: I friended limyaael specifically because she was writing that and posting it to her LJ. :wide, wide grin:

...that's one of the best fanfics I've ever read, no question.

Incidentally, and now that it's been long enough that the person whose mental health I'm most concerned about will probably not be reading this comment, so long as you're not intending to do something like arranged-marry Legolas to Fleur Delacour, you're safe from my Screaming Canon Death Laser.

Worst Fanfic Ever

[the-real-diana.livejournal.com]

You should go to some of the sites that have the worst fanfic ever, they're so funny....

[suzanne.livejournal.com]

Fanfic can certainly be intriguing if done correctly. But honestly, I think I enjoy the bad stuff better.

There is a LOTR fanfic that involves someone trying to explain to the actual Tolkien characters that they are in a fanfic, and may start feeling strange urges that are out of character. So that is fanfic parodying itself right? fanficfic?
