Re: What was the popular trope when you got into fandom?
(Anonymous) 2024-10-22 04:48 am (UTC)(link)When fics were basically continuations of the series [fandom Quantum Leap, PG version] with writers trying to tell the same sort of stories we could no longer get from TV. Of course nowadays QL is dead, but worse than that, ever writer seems to think that fanfic is only for shipping and rarely writes anything for any fandom without a shipping scene levered into it. You don't have to ship to do fandom [blahblahblahdisclaimeryoudon'thavetonotshipeitherblahblahblahweirdodefensivenerdsinterjecthere].
I also miss when fantasy novels were all about the true and noble king returning, and the orphan living in poverty under the heel of the evil usurper turns out to be the prince who has to adventure with a band of happy friends at least one of which was an elf.
