I always saw it as fic being the, well, fiction about a world, and meta being the nonfiction discussing that world. Exploring the psychology of why a character made certain decisions, trying to predict what will happen based on the established things we know about that world, looking at how a romance supports or deconstructs different tropes.

Fic writing will often incorporate meta concepts--Harry will defeat Voldemort with power X based on this theory about how love and magic work, Kirk and Spock and McCoy have an interpersonal dynamic which means they could find happiness gettin' it on together, genderswapped Tony Stark would have developed a different relationship with her parents because societal expectations--but use those elements in terms of a story, not an analysis.

Or that's how I distinguish them, anyhow.
