There is some really, really amazing fanfic out there.

You just have to be willing to dig through a lot of crap to find it.

I however cannot speak for transformers, since I have no interest in reading transformers fic

What about a doctor who/sherlock crossover?

I too don't like transformers either, I did once.

So much truth. Why isn't there a thread here for good fanfics? Not "awesome" fanfics...

Well, ok, that's just one fanfic. But still!

Wholock, meh. I haven't found one I'd be interested in reading. There's even Superwholock. Again, meh. Crossovers aren't my thing.

Edit: I did however once read a fantastic Firefly/Doctor Who crossover, but that you know, makes a sort of sense.

I'd be interested in one, but since fanfiction is often subjective too (if you don't like a pairing, it's automatically crap even if the writing is outstanding) I'd worry about people just endlessly trolling each other's choices. Also, since a lot of fanfic, even the good stuff, tends to have some parts that would be NSFW....I dunno.

This is the funniest thing I've read all day.

I made a crossover fanfic of king of fighters and batman.

worst thing ever

 

[Winterfang]

Oh man, I can totally read that in his voice, too.

Hahahaha now it's even funnier.

[GavinGT]

Just finished reading. Wow, what an ending!

5/5 stars

 

[eBay Huckster]

Only 1.8 million words?

Here's a Smash Bros fanfic that's 3.55 million.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

 

[Angry Grimace]

For obvious reasons. People want to read shit with characters they already know and people want to write stuff with characters they already know.

 

[Eidan]

I dunno man, the show got intense.

When card battles get real.

I remember this god awful fanfiction that was the worst thing I've ever read about smash bros.

Oh my bad that was super smash bros brawl for wii. It was the story mode.

 

[MrSaturn99]

Ha! I've read Metroid High School a hundred times and I've never seen it out of context like that. Hysterical.

Haha, reading your introduction to it sounds great. Going to read it now.

I know there's excellent stuff without that. And yeah, reception to fanfics in general aren't all that, either (mainly because most of it is scary).

Dude. DUDE. First couple of seasons had me at the edge of my seat. And the movie.

 

[collige]

My Immortal is still the best fanfic of all time.

And then…………… suddenly just as I Draco kissed me passionately. Draco climbed on top of me and we started to make out keenly against a tree. He took of my top and I took of his clothes. I even took of my bra. Then he put his thingie into my you-know-what and we did it for the first time.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! ” I screamed. I was beginning to get an orgasm. We started to kiss everywhere and my pale body became all warm. And then….

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU MOTHERFUKERS!”

It was…………………………………………………….Dumbledore!

Oh yeah, I've read some amazing fic without any romance at all, but as most fanfic writers are women, the vast majority will have some romance at least. Because us girls, we like the romance and smut. >.<

But you are right, the general reception to fanfic is one of the many reasons why I haven't started an 'actually awesome fanfic' thread, since I would imagine most of the posts would be trolls linking horrible crack fic or the like. I also haven't started an 'actually awesome fanvids' thread for similar reasons.

Edit: I still firmly believe that My Immortal was an elaborate troll on badfic written by a Harry Potter BNF in jest, because there is no way anyone could write something that bad and it not be on purpose.

 

[SwiftDeath]

All right people fess up

Whose read it?

And how was it?

This thread is an example of what would go wrong (or hilariously right).

 

[MaschinenZimmer]

I love this kind of stuff. Anyone also loves reading Bizarro Fiction like Carlton Mellick III etc? I am getting a similar vibe from those fanfics.

Maybe somebody could make a thread about them where we could share and talk about our favs? Dunno, how much interest is on gaf for that sort of thing though.

 

[Cuyejo]

Was it written by a single person?

Edit: Holy shit, apparently it was, some people really, REALLY have some time to waste...

 

[siddhu33]

Lol, it's the same length as the Hindu Epic story Mahabharata!

To put that in perspective, that's 10 times the length of the Iliad, and the Odeyssey COMBINED.

Amazing.

Bizarro seems like ad libs finished by methheads.

 

[kazebyaka]

This fanfic better include words "Trap card" every ten sentences, or it's not the true yu-gi-oh

 

[MaschinenZimmer]

Bizarro seems like ad libs finished by methheads.

Try "The Cannibals of Candyland". A better lovestory than "In the mood for love".

 

[Keru_Shiri]

I needed that laugh. Thank you.

I think it's doable, with proactive mod intervention. Maybe you can find a sympathetic mod that doesn't hate fanfic.

 

[MaschinenZimmer]

Yes, please. Don't be afraid, Fiction!

Now this is something that I'm going to have to do huh?

I'm going to have to link stuff in the OP! Oh god.

Erm, PM me your number one recs folks who are serious about this, as I am only familiar with four or five fandoms.

Yes Cyan, I'll include your favorite too

 

[Keru_Shiri]

Fan fiction, both to read and write, is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. I'd be super interested in seeing a thread that gathers some of the better examples, and perhaps some discussion on what separates the good from the bad.

 

[G-Fex]

fanfictions only lead to bad things. I'm begging you reconsider.

You mess with fanfictions you get things like 50 shades of grey

Easily the funniest fanfic I've ever read. NSFW in a really weird way.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Here is a good one, the Bosnian War with the Doraemon characters:

Would be mildly interested in this. Hope you go for it!

Working on the OP right now >.< I hope it goes well.

Hilariously enough, the only PM I've gotten so far for a rec to include in the OP was one that I was going to include already.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

 

[white dynamite]

The whole Obama and Sonic the Hedgehog crossover amuses me.

 

[Cimarron]

I hate GAF sometimes. Before this thread existed thought I read all the Phantasy Star fiction there was in existence on Geocities. Now i have more fuel for more addiction. Thank a lot GAF. :-/
