I don't even know. It's a term that keeps popping up, but I've never heard anyone define it. :/

I've never seen the term prior to this secret, but if I had to take a stab at it...since the id is the part of the psyche that involves base needs (food, sex, etc) and is preoccupied with avoiding pain and seeking pleasure, I'd guess id-fic are like PWPs? Fics that are meant just to give people squee or get them off without making them think or feel any kind of painful emotions?

IDK, that's the only way this even kind of makes sense. :/

Oh, this makes...some sense, yea. Don't know if you're right, but thanks for the reasonable explanation anyway. :)

A bit like PWPs but more often for the emotions than for the sex drive? Like, really shameless and gratuitous h/c, unironic tropey romance, whump or rape, stuff that's just written to let the writer & readers feel feelings with no higher artistic purpose (except maybe by accident). I love idfics.

eta: weird that you were describing something fairly unambiguously positive but what makes me think 'idfic' is more of the gratuitously dark variety. Acknowledging that people take pleasure in that stuff - especially in h/c - is what I really define as 'idfic', for some reason.

Yeah, strange...maybe I was being positive without realizing it? I'm not one who gets too hung up in the "negative" of the id - it may not do much for one's cultural or spiritual development, but in the most basic sense, it doesn't hurt anything. Chimpanzees spend most of their time living the id...they've been known to throw shit at each other (and others) literally, and even on occasion gang-beat a potential threat to death and carry its head away as a trophy. They still manage to survive and thrive within their communities just fine. The id just spews out what it means to be alive and feeling, so I don't have any particular qualms of negative/positive with that. It's the ego and superego that become more concerned with what it means to be human, and civilized, so I wouldn't expect any kind of morality/justice/whatever in an "idfic."
