Re: fanfic clichés you hate

[(Anonymous)]

Inuyasha fandom. Kagome runs to and falls for Sesshoumaru because Inuyasha is a dick to her. She's always the wilted flower. Don't get me wrong, I love me some Sess/Kag fics. They're all the same plot now. A few years back I got so sick of it that I wrote my own Sess/Kag fic where Sesshoumaru was the one in a vulnerable position. It got popular. lol Still proud of it today. Guess I wasn't the only one sick of the same old, same old. }8^P>

I don't suppose you have a link to that fic? (Seems most fic that puts Kagome with anyone else has that premise.)

Here's my fic http://www.dokuga.com/fanfiction/story/3612/1

It won awards on Dokuga.

"Best Sesshoumaru portrayal" 1st place
"Best drama" joint 1st place
"Best AU/AR" 2nd place

All that after I didn't expect it to get any hits at all. Wrote it for fun. Funny how that works ain't it? Now I'm proud of that fic.

I hate this one too. I used to read Sess/Kag fic all the time, but now everything is just like twenty other fics that I've already read. Sess/Kag is a fun pairing and there are a lot of other ways for them to get together than for Inuyasha to be a dick and Kagome to run away, but no one seems to write anything else.

The other big plot that people seem to use is that Kagome is stuck in the present, but she ends up meeting Sesshoumaru again, and they fall in love. And, inevitably, he is always the CEO of a company.

I'm going to check out your fic though, it sounds interesting :)

I'm a big fan of SessKag fics and yes, I agree, many seem to be the same beginning scenario, but I for one usually love what happens after she runs to him if the story is well written. People have written some very interesting follow ups to that scenario.

...besides that Inuyasha IS a dick. It's such an easy scenario to write. xD

As for the 'Sesshoumaru inevitably is always the CEO of a company', I could only ever see him as famous, rich and popular or as a rich recluse who likes to travel. I read a ficlet once where he was an ice cream seller but other than finding it hilarious, as was the author's intention (who also complained that everyone saw him as a CEO), I could never see it as a plausible job for him.

tl;dr I totally understand where you're coming from. I just never get tired of reading my OTPs even if the scenarios are repetitive, about high school, about pirates or ninjas, about ninja pirates in high school etc etc. As long as it's plausible and in possession of good grammar/spelling/sentence structure I can totally deal. xD
