Spend a lot of time on my web project Forbidden Fruits today. Especially, considering that I had other plans. Oh well, now I will go shopping for the weekend and then see if I can possibly manage to not having to leave the house on Thursday after I return form the uni.

Forbidden Fruits will get a complete overhaul and will be no longer just an archive for OFC Fanfiction, but also OCs in general and *drumroll* Vampires. Which means I can also ask people to archive Gabriel / Vladislaus slash there and my own Vladislaus / whatever pairings ;)

Maybe that attracts a few more people to the archive.

I do not want to expand too far, but considering I got the fanlisting for vampire fanfiction, I felt more than ever the need to make an archive for that. Admittingly "Forbidden Fruits" was a inside joke about how hostile* some slashers were towards het stories, especially if the features ofcs, but I think the name is cool on its own and fits vampire fanfiction also.

* You know those guys who were saying that het was totally disgusting, any ofc was automatically a mary sue if she shagged up with a canon - nevermind that their own slash pairings were often even more out of character and far fetched than those they het ones were attacking. Just think of Highlander, all those crazy batshit insane shippers, who couldn't stand anything female paired with Methos, because he and Duncan being the OTP of all times *rollseyes* yeah, completely ignoring the fact that both had affairs with girls left and right. Back then that attitude upset me, because it was scaring off potential writers who would not write fluffy out of character slash (not that I would have minded good Methos/Duncan slash) but some nice or often not so good het stuff. Nowadays I am a do it yourself girl ;)
  • I just read about it on Bloody Fangs. I´m curious about the changes. I don´t know if I´m even registered at the "Fruits", shame on me :-( I really find the domain lovely.

    Slashers who hate het, yeah weird. They live the cliché. I like slash myself and yeah, I wrote a lot of slash, but I don´t know how long I search for a good het-fic out there. I think I have to dive into the fic-portals someday again (to get scared like shit about the young writers) and do intense searches.
    • Yeah, I'm curiuous about what I will come out at the end of my plans ;)

      Whether it is slash or het, good stories are often hard to find. Although I admit, I'm more inclined to like a cheesy not to good het story if the sex scenes are nice, because I like reading stuff with a woman in it (such a shame that good femmslash is even rarer) but even there my patience has limits.
  • I know exactly what you mean and think your idea is a great one.
    I'm not that good in writing fanfic in English, but I love our little RPG, especially when it comes to scenes between LaCroix and my character Loreen. What the other players/writers don't know is that the person who writes LC and I also write uncuts.

    (German: diejenige von uns, die in dem Rollenspiel das Ganze ins rollen bringt, beginnt mit dem Uncut aus dessen Sicht/Ich-Form ((LaCroix's oder Loreen's)). Und die andere schreibt darauf das Ganze im Grunde nochmal aus Sicht des anderen. Das hat eine unglaublich intensive Wirkung/Spannung. So geschehen natürlich auch schon mit meinen anderen Characteren Serena und Natalie.)

    Since our RPG is international and open to all ages we have to keep it 'clean' ;-)
    I too like slash stories, but I love well written het stories!
