History Fanfic / ASciFiFansAdventure

I'd always loved science fiction movies. But never did I think I could get caught up in one…

''A Sci-Fi Fan's Adventure'' is Fanfiction by Creator/MLLanzillotta (aka Cececat). It's based on the 1975 cult film ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' . The first seven chapters take place during the movie, while the rest take place over the next year or so. It stars an Main/OriginalCharacter named Fay... who happens to be the long lost daughter of the film's infamous Main/CreepyCrossdresser. Fay is notably one of fanfiction's few lesbian original characters.

This Fanfic is much more of a ScienceFiction story than the film it's based on.

----> '''The Ghost of Fay's Father:''' [...] The last is Chapman. Their symbol is a snake. One of my dearest friends was of the Chapman family. He died about 20 years ago, sadly. And we never did find his pet fish.
----> '''Fay:''' ''[narrating]'' I didn't understand the relevance of that specific person or... fish.

** ''Series/StarTrek'' and ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'' are often referenced... mostly to show that Fay likes Science Fiction

** Not a BigLippedAlligatorMoment since, earlier in the story, [[spoiler:Fay told Flora]] that a "symptom" of falling in love is the sudden desire to sing Cole Porter songs.

** Many scenes are "borrowed" from {{Theatre/Hamlet}} and quotes are taken from a lot of other plays by Creator/WilliamShakespeare

** The main character Fay is a bit obsessed with the 19th century novella {{Literature/Carmilla}}
** Pip is clearly based on the character of the same name from Literature/GreatExpectations

** The fictional language spoken by aliens is actually Sindarin from Literature/TheLordOfTheRings
** Series/StarTrek and Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey keep showing up mainly to prove Fay likes Science Fiction

The 27K word fanfiction was written in four days. Word of God says the author didn't sleep for much of that time.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The scene at the end of Chapter 17, when the Spanish Inquisition appears for a paragraph. A shout out to ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus'', judging by all the other references to the same show. That whole sequence with Pip is also this.

* LesYay: Most of the original film's characters were bi, and the main character is clearly a lesbian. Reviewers really liked the ship Fay/Magenta (to the point they made hilarious nickname, see below), though [[spoiler:Fay marries another Original Character, Lady Flora, in the end.]]

* PortmanteauCoupleName: Reviewers shipping OriginalCharacter Fay and ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' character Magenta coined the bizarre nickname "Faygenta."

* ActorAllusion: Frank the Scientist (a character left over from the actual movie) as a ghost paraphrases the wizard Trymon from Film/TheColourOfMagic. Both were played by Creator/TimCurry.

* Main/ContinuationFic: The Brad and Janet subplot is definetly a direct continuation of ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'', especially since it doesn't have any original characers (except for [[spoiler:Estella, Janet's half-alien baby who doesn't show up]] until the last chapter).

* {{Main/Expy}}: Pip is basically Pip from Literature/GreatExpectations... in the 1970s. Right down to the fact that he helps a person on the run from the law. Of course [[spoiler:that person is Fay right after she killed the Queen and stowed away on a spaceship, not a convict.]]

* Main/LesYay: Most of the original film's characters were bi, and the main character is clearly a lesbian. Reviewers really liked the ship Fay/Magenta (to the point they made hilarious nickname, see below), though [[spoiler:Fay marries another Original Chraracter, Lady Flora, in the end.]]

* Main/LukeIAmYourFather: Frank figures out Fay is his long lost daughter the minute he hears her name... apparently he asked his ex-lover Lenore to name any bastard kid of their's after Fay Wray. He tells her via weird physic link when he realizes (in a scene copied from the original movie) that Riffraff is going to kill him.

* Main/MythologyGag: ...sort of. The last line of the entire fanfic is a direct quote of the last line of the movie.

* Main/PortmanteauCoupleName: Reviewers shipping Main/OriginalCharacter Fay and ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' character Magenta coined the bizzare nickname "Faygenta."

* Main/RunningGag: Save for the wedding cake at the end, the only food ever mentioned is salmon. Mostly just smoked salmon. An in-universe reason is given only once.
** Another example is Brad's cassette tape of Richard Nixon's resignation speech. In ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'', Janet and him listen to Richard Nixon's speech at about 11 o'clock at night in November. It later became a running joke in the scenes taking place on Earth. He's mentioned to be listening to it at least twice in scenes after the part copied from the movie.

* Main/ShoutOut: Only three characters in ''TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' had full names and all of the names the fanfic's author invented referenced something. Main/WordOfGod explains nearly every one via Author's notes.

* Main/SuddenMusicalEnding: At the end, when [[spoiler:Fay]] marries [[spoiler:Flora]], they randomly start singing ''I Get a Kick Out of You'' from Theatre/AnythingGoes.
** Not a Main/BigLippedAlligatorMoment since, earlier in the story, [[spoiler:Fay told Flora]] that a "symptom" of falling in love is the sudden desire to sing Cole Porter songs.

* Main/SweetOnPollyOliver: Weirdly averted. When [[spoiler:Lady Flora]] wants people to ignore her she dresses as a servant boy. Her love interest [[spoiler:Fay]] never notices... until [[spoiler:Lady Flora]] takes off the disguise and proposes marriage near the end. Nobody cares at all.

* Main/WeddingsForEveryone: In the end, [[spoiler:Fay marries Flora and Glen marries Lady Hippolyta]] on the same day that [[spoiler:Fay is crowned Queen of the Trasylvanian Empire.]]
