I thought that was the purpose

Nah, it's not

not that I write any, trashy or not

The purpose I suppose is for people who can't or won't put the effort into world building to create something

so then what is fan fiction supposed to be?

Literally what I just said

It's an appreciation for a pre existing world and an excuse to make a story

Hey hey don’t bash smut fics some of them have nice plots to go along w the porn

At least that's how I see it

Yeah but I meant the *bad* stuff

Oooh

That stuff

Yea

<:Ben_Cringe:752572527120875520>

where it's out of character

And awkward, and clearly written by a twelve year old

Lmao yup

I can’t read fics without proper punctuation and grammar lol

I’m spoiled

Same

Anyway, I only bought up the smutty fics because there's a greater divide between the good and bad in them

Omg I remember this one time a girl who liked me was trying to get me to blush by showing me some smut she’d written but by that point I was hardcore into yaoi and gay fanfics so I just read it w a blank face, handed it back, and said she could use some work <:KEK:795742276549607456>

It was also straight smut so I wasn’t into it <:KEK:795742276549607456>

Lol, I'm a veteran fanfiction reader but I don't have the talent of chill like most of y'all

nah, i do. a kid posted a very cursed fanfic up here once, and ronin had an mlp/walking dead fusion

Lol, that's the only kind I read

I can read anything in front of anyone and nobody would know

Eek

That's a handy skill

<:thinking:726878987837636698> i like 'em nice plots

Yes it is <:KEK:795742276549607456>

Lol exactly

Absolutely, I always avoid the pwp

i like them (sometimes) when i know the author

It depends for me lol

Sometimes I’m in the mood for plot w slow burn over 100k words and other times I just wanna get to the smut w a nice 2k pwp

I get that

But usually I'm an enemies to lovers kinda gal and those aren't good unless they're a slow burn

Ooo yesss

Those are awesome

what constitutes a complete story
