Still though, the term "fanfic" by itself will conjure images of awfulness in almost everyone that reads it, you would have to qualify good fanfics with "good" anyway. So the "bad" is redundant :)

Yeah I wouldn't just say 'fanfic' although I know a lot of it is bad. I've read plenty of good ones you know.

Believe that I speak from experience when I say that 90% of all fiction is awful. The difference between fanfiction and original fiction is that original fiction is divided into stuff that gets published (assumed to be good) and stuff that doesn't (assumed to be crap left mouldering on the literary agent's slush pile). Unless you go to one of the sites reserved for posting original fic (and who does that?), all the original fiction you come into contact with has been filtered through more than one editor, and the 90% of it that is bad has been rejected and will never assail your eyes. (Don't know how Sephanie Meyer slipped through the net).

There is no such distinction in fanfiction between published and unpublished, good and bad. Anyone can post a fic on fanfiction.net or AO3. There are no editors, no quality control, no gate-keeping. So of course 90% of it will be bad, because 90% of everything that is written is bad.

That said, bad is a relative concept. E J James wrote badfic and became a multi-millionaire. By any conceivable standard, Fifty Shades Of Grey was awful. Even the author thought it was pretty awful. But plenty of people thought it was good enough to spent $15 or $20 on. Ditto Cassandra Clare, notorious plagiarist.

PS Unlucky and Force striking sparks off each other.

That's Force's mating dance if you didn't know. :awesome:



Speaking of, you know what's really weird about Zack and Aerith's relationship? It's not even the lack of physically intimate stuff. It's that Cloud found out where Zack was from less than 30 seconds after first speaking to him. Zack and Aerith dated for the better part of two years, yet she is completely shocked when she finds out he's from Gongaga.

What the hell?

Which, and sorry to bring it up again, is to say nothing about how she tells his poor parents NOTHING, the heartless jerk.

I understand she can't give them a lot of closure but they ask you if you were the girlfriend he spoke of and you just walk out of the house?

^Could be the party didn't know they were in Gongaga in FFVII when they bumped into Zack's parents.

OK that's a long shot, but they may have just run straight to that house first then realised the town they were in was called Gongaga?

yes i am making this shit up to try and make it make sense

Don't you see. It's a subtle Clack proofz.

Zack told a different story to each of his many different girlfriends, just in case they ever met. Also, he didn't want any angry exes winding up on his parents' doorstep. He didn't need to hide the truth from Cloud because he wasn't planning on getting into his knickers.

Hmm that's tricky. But I call two souls in one body because Zack kicked the bucket, but is able to materialize when Cloud needs some lovin'. Or help in a battle with Sefiros.

Dammit Kore, I was gonna say clack proofz! Though has anyone noticed how Tifa seems to know Aerith better than anyone else in the party, even better than Cloud? That's AerTi proofz if you ask me, not to mention she tells Cloud in the ending she wants to meet Aerith again. Clack and AerTi are clearly the *actual* intended couples.:monster:

The Ultimanias exist to create confusion amongst us and lead us farther from the truth.

No-- in some cases they subtly present the real canon. Why do you think Aerith never got it on with Zack? She's clearly not into men. :monster:
