Borrowed Plumes: the Fan Fic challenge - support thread

[dirk2024]

Very good point. Although I'd use a stronger word for JKR's attitude than "unfortunate".

How about JKR as the MFC in a noncon story?

 

[Bamagan]

I'm thinking I might actually write something for this after all. I believe Tarzan of the Apes is in the public domain, and the character is still quite recognizable despite the age. The original book probably didn't have a sufficiently graphic description of Jane Porter enjoying feral ape-like lovin' from Tarzan, but that is something I may be able to remedy.

That made me warm.

I seriously doubt that would be published, but you’re welcome to try.

So, a lesbian-themed Friday the 13th fanfic should go in C&FF? Or Erotic Horror? Asking, uh, for a friend. You don't know her. She lives in Canada a-and goes to a different school...

If you feature Ms. Voorhees, Jason, or any other non original characters, definitely FF&C. I did a couple stories (Inside Out and Kings in Conflict) where Disney Gargoyles made non sexual cameo appearances and were not major characters- they went into FF&C regardless.

I guess I should have added a or merely a to let folks know I wasn't serious.

Maybe we can put JKR behind us now? Harry Potter is off limits, and she's a mediocre writer and a pretty awful human being. So let's just move on, shall we?

Excellent!
Mainstream culture universes? Bah! Humbug! I plan to plunder my way through the Lesbian Litverse
@THBGato and @SugarStorm, consider this fair warning

I’m not sure if I should be scared… or excited. Maybe enraptured. Possibly electrified! Either way, it definitely starts with E

I suggest feeling emulsified.

Simpsons is also off limits for Lit per the admins. Pity, I agree Smithers and Burns are a great couple. So are Ruth and Marge. Oh well.

I am reliably informed you may not do fan-fiction of stories published on Literotica. So keep that in mind while you're having fun with the challenge.

You need to get the original author's permission first.

Not so. I wrote a fanfic of Freya Gersemi’s stories last year. Also mentioned a character from Carnage Jackson’s stories and a setting from KMB’s in multiple stories before that. I had the original author’s permission every time.

 

[Rob_Royale]

Still kicking this around. Too many possibilities.

Authors have previously reported getting a rejection that says "We do not publish J. K. Rowling, Simpsons, or Disney fanfiction." Taken literally that would seem to include even characters who are adults in the original material, though looking at what does get published "Disney" seems to mean the animated stuff rather than all Disney properties.

My best guess is that these three brands are so strongly associated with kids that L+M felt it was unsafe to go there at all.

I don't care that much about JKR (I did publish a few HP fanfics, but those were honestly before book 5 came out), but I feel like this warning is outdated boilerplate nonetheless: Disney has owned the Simpsons since 2019, so that's a duplicate warning, even if the Disney warning is just about animated material, because the Simpsons is obviously animated.

It would be good to get clarification on this point before this AC really gets underway, because Disney owns a lot of creative universes at this point: Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars (Indiana Jones for anyone who cares, though most of those stories at this point should go in Mature as much as in FF&C), 20th Century Fox, and more. Heck, they own The Crimson Wing: Mystery of the Flamingos, so people may need to be cautious if they're about to pen some stentorian, pink bird-on-bird necking action.

I get the proscription on characters that are underage in the source material, but if they're using animation as a proxy for that, that's over- and under-inclusive. Yoda is an animated 900-year-old carnivorous dominant male accustomed to being addressed as Master and throwing people against walls; you know that guy had wild younger years and just had all records expunged by the Jedi as soon as he obtained a leadership position in their seditious conspiracy. Meanwhile, Phantom Menace Anakin is a non-animated child character (not to mention almost the entire cast of Skeleton Crew).

The "animated" is my rough interpretation, not an official proclamation. Looking at what has been published here in the last few years is helpful in figuring out what "Disney" means in practice - for instance, there's plenty of Marvel material on Literotica, so presumably that's allowed.

A couple of complications: sometimes material has gotten past because Laurel wasn't aware of the work it was based on, and the rules used to be looser so you'll find older stories which probably wouldn't be accepted now. Also, some Disney stories are based on fairytales in the public domain, and Lit doesn't seem to be preventing people from publishing stories based on those fairytales.

I get the proscription on characters that are underage in the source material, but if they're using animation as a proxy for that, that's over- and under-inclusive. Yoda is an animated 900-year-old carnivorous dominant male accustomed to being addressed as Master and throwing people against walls; you know that guy had wild younger years and just had all records expunged by the Jedi as soon as he obtained a leadership position in their seditious conspiracy. Meanwhile, Phantom Menace Anakin is a non-animated child character (not to mention almost the entire cast of Skeleton Crew).

The vibe I'm getting - and again, this is just my interpretation, not an official statement from the site owners - is that they are trying to avoid hosting material based on media that's seen as "for kids", whether or not the specific characters involved are children. I know JKR has expressed concern about the possibility of young fans looking for Harry Potter content online and inadvertently running into porn.

AFAIK Star Wars in general is permitted but PM-era Anakin would be off limits due to the general rules about minors, regardless of who owns him.

On another note, I just saw this picture and now I'm obsessed with writing a swirling french detective romance about that guy, except obviously she's a suave and dapper lesbian (you can all see it, right?) Real world fan fic allowed?

"It was the heist of the century, and I was the first name on their speed dial: Inspector Teddy Swann. Solving crimes and looking sexy as fuck."

Gender-swap neo-noir crime and punishment fanfic romance. But who needs labels?

Dammit. Now I want to write this story too!

"I won't talk! You can't make me talk!"
I took a long drag on my cigarette and leaned forward so my face was close to his. "No, Andre, I can't make you talk." I exhaled. Smoke curled around his ears. "But I can screw up the paperwork. Send you to the women's wing, instead of your cosy little cell here. They have less supervision in the women's wing, Andre, did you know that?" I took another drag and let it out slowly. "Less supervision, but more resentment. More anger. And more strapons. Do you know what they make strapons from in a women's prison, Andre? Do you really want to find out?"

I don't claim exclusivity, write it! We need this verse to take off (I want to and don't want to know what they make strapons out of in prison... )
