Re: Dear Fanfic Author....
(Anonymous) 2017-03-13 01:49 am (UTC)(link)My fandom is "Inu Yasha". Ten years, and if you're going by the manga, not a single actual kiss between Kagome and Inu Yasha. Yes, there is plenty of skinship, but no kisses or anything more risque. Ten years of pent-up frustration at my OTP not getting anything steamy (especially when Inu Yasha and Kikyou get TWO kisses, dammit!) equals me writing loads of smut.
I could write a sequel about their daily lives, but finding in-depth information about Feudal Era Japan, the peasantry in particular, is very difficult without access to a university library or scads of cash to buy rare books. I could try and write monster-of-the-week, but I'm still learning Japanese mythology, and I will never have as full a grasp of it as Rumiko Takahashi did because 1) she's native Japanese and 2) a huge fan of Japanese myths.
So, I'll write to my strengths and thoroughly enjoy myself.

(Anonymous) 2017-03-13 02:23 am (UTC)(link)1) OP didn't say that the characters' sex lives weren't unexplored territory, only that the author OP was addressing didn't explore any other territory except sex.
2) mrs_don_draper made the rather hard to believe claim that the characters' sex lives were the ONLY unexplored areas. That's a significant distinction.
