Musing on JE fanfic
I just read several fic prompts for T&T fic and came to the conclusion that I just couldn't write Takitsuba. Then I started thinking about the fics I've written and came to the conclusion that all of it has been cross-group fiction. I've never written anything where the two people are in the same group.
I guess it's some kind of a visceral reation to making it seem "too real" or something like that. To me, fanfic is total fantasy land and I never take the fanfic pairings for real. I can read whatever pairings there are and even like reading fics with pairings where I don't actually like the other half of the pairing in "real life". I prefer their fictional counterparts, weird as it sounds :P...
