Re: OCs in fanfiction

(Anonymous) 2021-10-11 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
I tend to enjoy them, but it depends on the context.

If it's a ship fic (MC x OC), I like it (although whether I actually like the OC depends -- sometimes they're really well written and multi-dimensional characters, other times they're doing too much and not being as cute as they think they are) because I know what I'm expecting.

When it's an outsider perspective OC centered gen fic, i enjoy those too.

Random townspeople OCs are fine.

I think the only ones (and I'm guilty of this partially, lol) that really annoy me are OCs that just pop up in a story and I'm supposed to know who the fuck this is,no intro. Just "and Peter came by yesterday." And they're suddenly somehow integral to the story line (and I'd likely have to read some other fic to know who the fuck this is). The good old "asky permission to use my OCs" lol honey this is fanfiction.

I say I'm partially guilty because I have a fic (I never posted) but it's essentially OFC1 from Story 1 (MCxOFC1) who ends up saving OMC1 (brief exposition) and the audience is introduced to OMC2 who becomes the love interest for OFC1 (meanwhile, we're introduced to OFC2 who will be the new love interest for MC lol)
