I have written some fic in an elaborate crossover AU and every so often someone who likes it suggests I should file off the serial numbers and publish it as an original fic. And, granted, it is so AU that it's practically original in some ways... but it's still fic, and it just doesn't work unless you already know the main fandom it's in. It just would not work as an original story-- I actually think it's pretty good and I am proud of it, but I have read enough to be sure it would not be publishable as original fic.

I appreciate the compliment when people have said that, but sometimes readers and authors do underestimate how much context and attachment to the characters from canon etc affect your view of a fic. Like, bless you if you can do it but it seems like it would be pretty rare for it to work
