32:00 Robot slowly discovering and understanding feelings is absolutely amazing and all, but I'll always be even more of a sucker for a robot that HAS FELT love, it KNOWS it can feel anything, but just refuses to accept it either because throughout their life they've always been treated as nothing but a machine or because they believe themself to be a "superior being" who isn't "bound by emotions", UGH I just love it
I hate crossovers in fanfic but I really like them in fanart. There's a lot of art exploring Aziraphale/Crowley and Stede bonnet/ Edward Teach encountering eachother, and those are always so much fun
You want Hanahaki to be more messed up? Mali, I have the fic for you. >:3 Edit: This video was extremely based. Pretty sure my horror trilogy would be up your alley too. XD
I have a game suggestion for you based on the all of your comments throughout this tier list. In Stars And Time, is a game that is about one character trapped in a one day time loop. It’s super angsty and very well written. It’s also on steam for $20 which is insane for how long and good the game is.
I haven’t watched the video yet so maybe she brings this up but I definitely think that content drought and depends on execution should switch places. If it depends on execution I still enjoy it sometimes but if I only read something if there is a content drought that means I do not like it but will force myself if there is nothing else to read
From someone who does RP, the main one im in has SOOOOOOOO many different tropes at any given time, I've found that miscommunication works really well for angst. (Also had a brief love triangule caused by a miscommunication, and ended in a poly relationship, so... yeah.)
I got so happy whenever you started talking about DSMP, they genuinely had really good lore that I really miss, I mean, QSMP is great but I just miss two guys selling drugs in a van leading up to a murderous pig destroying a whole country with the guy he once PvP'd for 100k, ya know? And Hermitcraft doesn't have enough lore to feed me, even tough it's my all time fav SMP, but the fanfiction community knows what is doing(I just avoid the ship ones, cause eh)
8:00 I have the perfect scenario Warhammer 40k fanfic (don't get murdered by copyright) So you have a romance between two devout people both going through hell in recruitment training, and they have to hide their love from their higher-ups because if they don't they get fucking murdered - and they have to do this while going through military training from hell coupled with sunday school run by the nazis
I don't think I've ever actually read a fanfic Crossovers in fiction have always been my favourite. There are so many that would work together for a one-shot or occasional crossover. Star Trek with Stargate or Godzilla with Pacific Rim would be pretty awesome. (Watching Trekies have a melt at the SGC becoming more powerful in 30 years, then the UFP in 300 would be peak comedy) Brooklyn 99 would work with alot of these tropes aswell, I think. Like B99 would work great in Mass Effect or Star Trek, or any AU setting. That would be amazing It's also a great way to see different franchises handle different situations is also very interesting. It would be really interesting to see the Star Treks UFP try to deal with Mass Effects Reapers (And fail, I believe) or UFP deal with Stargates Ori. Watching Balders Gate deal with Dragons Ages Blight or put any franchise's characters into Bloodborne's Yharnam and gleefully watch them snap Twould also be hilarious to do a ACC or SCC Hunger Games
I always like the idea of all sitcoms occuring in the same universe. Shows like Friends, the Office, Big Bang, Young Sheldon, Life In Pieces, essentially anything light hearted without magic or the supernatural could all easily exist together. Brooklyn Nine Nine and New Girl (I think it was that show) already had a crossover and this is just the logical extreme.
I think my friends use AO3… I’ve never used any writing sites in my life but I have written things… (You shall ignore the rest of this unless you want to see me go off into a loophole of confusion) I’ve only written weird spinoffs of my characters… that’s the only thing I’ve done… no wait I’ve put my characters into already existing worlds… at least they aren’t as weird as my characters when I write things about them… yeah um… my characters are strange end of story! Hailey Robinson is such a common name… yet that’s what I choose to name myself this time… Hailey is one of my characters…
How do you feel about “what if” scenarios? I’ve seen it in some video games where characters were swapped for other characters (within the same game), with a change/lack to the story/ending, but not within fanfics.
I looked up what ABO is… I knew what it was kinda… but now I 100% know… I think I only knew the premise… but I didn’t know the male alphas get prego 💀 Uh… I just realized how to troll some weird people who say they are alpha males on Twitter/X… hehe
Mali you are reminding me of so many different mha fanfiction that I have read. Also yes I want to watch my fictional self go through angst over Shigaraki I need that
I adore watching these because it’s always so fun to see how all our interests in fanfic differ. That being said, I’m always a sucker for fantasy and royal au. Oh heck yes let’s go!!!
You know,my favourite fanfic trope of all is no misunderstandings and both male lead and female lead are currently healing for their traumas. For example,male lead is suffering from PTSD or aftermath of a war. And for the female lead family troubles or in my case currently in denial finding out the person who uses to cherish you is not what they seem. And I love red flag couples that are acknowledge by the author as nothing to be swept under the rug or also in my case, do crimes that aren't forgiven by the other characters.
The slow burn one is such a mood… My favorite persona fic hit 1mil words like last week or so… 52/60+ chapters, and a planned sequel… I‘m fine… xD (A tale of two tricksters, if anyone‘s curious) (Also yes they fucked like five chapters ago… probably 800k or so words in? Idk I‘m bad guestimating)
I have flashbacks of my Undertale/Touhou Project crossover I used to be Wattpad famous years ago for that shit and my UT aus rating. I love that stream god it made me reminisce on my Wattpad years xDDDD
I'd argue that Katniss, Peeta, and Gale aren't actually in a love triangle, at least not the kind you'd normally think of when you think of a love triangle. Peeta and Gale serve the purpose of the opposing perspectives on the war that Katniss can't get herself untangled from, Peeta for peace and Gale for continuing the violence. And so from the very beginning it is clear that in a story about war and propaganda and Katniss's ptsd and trauma, she would end up with the love interest that believes in peace and a world without violence. In comparison to love triangles only showing hot guys and a will they won't they narrative (a narrative the hunger games barely gives attention to if at all), it's significantly harder to group them together In my opinion
Dammit, I've had a fic marinating in my brain for so damn long that I've been too busy/scared/incompetent to put down into words and now I feel like I have to tag myself. Fuck it, let's go! Canon Compliant: Honestly this really only applies to the first part and then like... 50% of what happens afterward, because one MC gets sent to the future and the perspective flips between characters now in her distant past and her present, which is where it becomes... Canon Divergent/Fix Fic: Yeah that's right, I'm erasing like 8 movies and lord knows how many hours of TV from existence here. No I will not be taking criticism on that. Slow Burn: A bit? This is part of why I haven't really started writing. I WANT it to be a slow burn, it SHOULD be a slow burn, but it only lasts about 1/5 of the wordcount at most and potentially a lot less. Grumpy & Sunshine: Ye. Perhaps even more than once! Angst: So much angst. A pivotal scene is basically one character yelling at another saying "you want ANGST!? Strap in asshole, I'll show you fucking ANGST!" Enemies to Lovers: Ehh.... Maybe? More like "begrudging allies" to besties for a few times for sure, though it definitely gets to "lovers" at least once. Secretly Dating: Yes, but IN MY DEFENSE the reason for secrecy is that they just kind of fell headfirst into the situation only to realize "oh shit, this would be a gigantic political scandal if it got out". Arranged Marriage: I mean... No but now that you mention it. :P Major Character Death: Canon? Probly not. OC? :3 See source for Angst. Unrequited Love/Painfully Oblivious: Yeah for a bit. Patching Up Wounds: Yeah, likely at some point. Idiots in Love: Listen to me, listen to me carefully. IMO EVERYONE can be a bit of an idiot when they're in love. Of course there are pairings in here that share a singular braincell. Miscommunication: It's FICTION, of course this'll happen. Genderswap/High School AU: Not actually in the story proper (unless you count a character transitioning as "genderswap", I don't) but I have considered them in my head for working out character dynamics and fleshing out personalities.
1:29 wait where is quotev on the list (in your opinion)? it was baby's first fanfic site from before wattpad and somehow it still exists. i think quotev might be worse, but i haven't seen wattpad since like 2016/2017. so quotev might be better now, who knows lol
1:23 some if my characters got inspired by Wattpad stories. And tbh I slightly perfer it because I have tried using ao3 3 times and could only find stories way to strong for me
Honestly, the only reason I don't usually care much about X Reader content is because it's almost always focused on romantic relationships. Like, I'm guessing it's an ace thing, but for the vast majority of fictional characters, I would be more interested in an X Reader fic focused on platonic or familial relationships. But most fic authors don't do that, so I usually only ever read X Reader stuff if it's with any of a small handful of characters. I know I'm definitely in the minority when I say all that, but more platonic/familial X Reader content would still be really cool.

Either inject it into my veins or feral for it. It’s sort of a more specific version of canon divergence or AU, both of which I vibe with strongly.
As someone who has read exactly 0 fan fics I'm sure I'll understand this.
