Shipping Fics. Lots and lots of Shipping Fics owing to my work having Loads And Loads Of Characters.
It is inevitable. Some characters being asexual or even lacking in genitals will not stop anyone.
If people learned from their mistakes, there wouldn't be this thing called bad habits.I hope people don't demonize Allie in their Nikolai/Yuri fics.
And I hope no one ships Aaron/Dare. That's just fucked.
I can see emo brats writing oneshots about Llewellyn's childhood, and the Yuri Fanboy consortium cranking out teen!Nim/teen!Erela fanfic, even though Erela is canonically straight because I said so (not every same-sex love story ends in reciprocation, fellas; sorry).
I wonder if anyone will ship the canon pairings. More importantly I wonder if anyone'll ship the pairing that I love but can't make work in canon at present.
A True Lady's Quest - A Jojo is You!I know for a fact that people will Draco in Leather Pants the genocidal commanders. And I will chastise them quite firmly for it.
... I wonder how many fics will be written around the assumption that my FtM trans character has a functional cock.

we are not the same you will hear my voiceAlso, Self Insert Fics. For the sake of Wish Fulfillment for some.
Even though almost all of the characters in canon would pretty much reject most self-inserts or even torture them.
If people learned from their mistakes, there wouldn't be this thing called bad habits.Shipping.
A lot of Ho Yay .
And VIDS! =D

EDIT: Wait, I might have just one more Split Personality Selfcest but this one's not as bad

Help?.. please...I make sure to bait my stories just for this reason.
Edit: Fan-fic means basically Free-press in my mind, especially if it's Crossover.

[[User Banned]]_ My Pm box ix still open though, I think?Shipping between the (decidedly non-lesbian) asian females. Of course that may just be because I'd love to see how they can make a relationship between a manipulative bitch Tsundere (Type b and portrayed sympathetically) with an out and out Kuudere work, when the latter character is still only showing her dry, snarky side to the former, without emphasizing their Ace Pilot credentials. Also, if the fic was any good it would have to get past the fact that they hate each other.
My troper wall21 possible Screw Yourself pairings (12 M/F, 3 F/F, and 6 M/M), counting only combinations of two? 35 possible threesomes and as many foursomes? Not counting possible pairings with friends, the ease with which any external pairing could become a three-plus-some, and ample Not Blood Siblings opportunity even when they actually are blood siblings, all with a canonically bisexual protagonist?
...Yikes.
Unusually, shipping is the one area I'm not worried about, mainly because there's no one to ship Mally with. Of course, the fans will probably find a way but it's not going to be easy for them. On the other hand, there may be rampent speculation about his parentage, given that that's one area I plan on keeping a mystery. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with on that front.
ooooh, I don't really know. Prolly AU 's where the main character becomes bad assified, mary sue fics of being the fourteenth super powered being when there are only supposed to be thirteen.
Glorious lemons, I hope.
And crossovers, if I'm lucky :3
New User Handlelol Shay Guy, 21??? your characters must love themselves a lot and I thought "MY" Bryce alone was bad. Either that or they have personality problems.

Help?.. please...Is ther a name for characters written with the assumption—nay, the intention, that they be put into leather pants? Because in canon, she (he? I'm still on the fence.) is a complete jerkass, but I'm consiously aiming for the exact level of slimy and unpleasant sympathetic that caters to leather pants-dom.
Mine lends itself so thoroughly to OCs and self-inserts... The base has twelve pairs of teens, of whom we only ever really meet six... and there are six other fully-stocked bases around the world.

SPACE? LASERS? ROBOTS?Okay well there's plenty of ships to go around. I plan on telling my fans "I don't have a problem with slash, heck go for it, but please refrain from bashing on all the girls." But I can guarantee you they will anyway. Kato and Felix will be slashed. There will be a ton of OC Toyakas and there will be some Mary Sues who screw up the Psi power system.
So help me if people ship Skye and Timmy, I will bust in a wall.

Oh dear... I have no romance in my story, due to being unable to write it well. Considering that my main character is non-human and the equivalent of a 14-year-old, and every one else is 19 and up... there could be some squicky nastiness in that. For Milo's sake, I hope no shippers will get involved.
I think it would actually be rather cool if someone wanted to flesh out some characters from my enemy species. There's plenty of room for OCs there.
Be not afraid...Let's see at least 2 Official couples, One straight, one gay. One heavily implied Ho Yay between another two characters. Currently just 9+ characters , 7 males , 2 females. Surprising I wasn't aiming for mostly Ho Yay after my last Gay romance novel fissiled in my hands.
[[User Banned]]_ My Pm box ix still open though, I think?If Cultural Osmosis is strong with mine, I'd expect people to throw around the term "katanaphoroi" when they want to say "weaboo".
But fanfic? There shall be no slashing my work, I am sure

Support Taleworlds!Let's see...
Loads And Loads Of Characters, leading to lots of shipping/slashing? Check.
Lots of symbolism, both real and gratuitous, leading to Epileptic Trees? Check.
Lots of other mysterious things, leading to Epileptic Trees? Check.
Sympathetic villains who at some points seem more like heroes who go just a little too far, thus leading to conflicts between readers who are pro-villain and anti-villain, thus leading to various fic wars? Check.
A fair number of characters who are Really 700 Years Old that give lots of possible backstory fic fodder? Check.
One Magnificent Bastard who spurs the imagination of others to what egregiously awesome lengths he might go to for his goals? And an Understudy that he's taken under his wing so that he might someday have a Worthy Opponent? Check.
Yeah...if my game were a popular anime series, it would easily dwarf every other series in the amount of possible fics.

It must have crossed your mind at least once. Ideally your work would be sucessful uponn publication, meaning it would have fans, and where there's fans, fanfiction tends to follow. Anyone have any ideas/predictions on that front?
Personally, I forsee many, many crossovers. After all, my current project has the main character happily wandering around the multiverse, a set up which lends itself all too well to crossovers.
