plotbunnies politics pop-up fanfic POV The Powers That Be (TPTB) Ever get hit with a story concept that doesn't really go anywhere but you have to write it? You've just been attacked by a plotbunny! Possibly inspired by general John Steinbeck: "Ideas are like rabbits. You get a couple and learn how to handle them, and pretty soon you have a dozen." The catty, cliquey goings-on within the web of interpersonal relationships which inevitably evolve general in any close-knit fandom. Ever seen "Pop-Up Videos" on VH1? That's where they show a video and "pop up" little interesting/funny facts about it while it's playing. Someone had the bright idea to do the same to a fanfic once (exactly once, mind you), creating a comics very gentle but still funny sort of MSTing. Ever since then, some writers who are afraid of their work being MSTed are also afraid of being "popupped," so they place warnings against both in their disclaimers. Why? Ya got me. Point Of View -- specifically in fanfic, a type of story told first-person from a character's point of view. Star Wars Has migrated into comic ficdom with X-Men movieverse fic. The people who control the canon material, be it comic or TV show. In other words, the people who hold the rights to the stuff we like to write fanfic about, and who could probably squash us like bugs if we pushed it. So far, so good. ;) This term lies somewhere between respect and sarcasm, and usually does not include writers/creators beloved by the fans. TIIC (The Idiots In Charge) can be used if you're feeling particularly sarcastic. Note: This term can also be applied to any nebulous agency or persons who "hold the reins" in a story. Most commonly used in X-Files fic, but seen almost everywhere. Star Trek, Xena, others PPC See Protectors Of The Plot Continuum. Tolkien A story that takes place prior to the timeframe of the pre-series Star Trek series in question. Foxtrot, preservation pre-slash pro MSTing Protectors Of The Plot Saving a fanfic for posterity, usually on a website. A variation of archive. A story which explores the potential for a same-sex romantic relationship without actually initiating it or dragging it out into the open. Tends to be PG/PG- 13, and not very commonly used. See slash. A MSTing which gets its source material from something somebody got paid for -- movie script, TV show, published book or poem, etc. Unfortunately, due to copyright paranoia, most pro MSTings have been removed from the net. Calvin & Hobbes slash MST3K A writing society devoted to "removing" Mary Sues from the stories they infest -- mainly LOTR. Hubsite Tolkien 180
Continuum PWP RACC RACMX Ratboy ratings Real Life real-people fic is located here. "Plot? What Plot?" or "Porn Without Plot" -- the nickname for a story which was written purely for general the sake of creating pointless sexual escapades. R rec.art.comics.creative, the newsgroup home to comics stories about original comic-type characters. rec.art.comics.marvel-x-books -- the discussion newsgroup that ACFF split away from, itself a spinoff of the newsgroup rec.arts.comics.marvel I comics believe. Turncoat agent Alex Krycek. Noted here because X-Files it's not an immediately apparent nickname. An author- or archivist-applied system which lets readers know what they're in for before they start reading a story. Not all archives or mailing lists require ratings, but most of the good ones do -- ratings are increasingly becoming a solid component of good fanfic etiquette, and at very least authors are expected to warn readers if a story contains explicit adult content. Using the American movie guidelines as a template, most fanfic can be rated as follows: • G: Good clean fun for all ages. • PG: Mild implied sexual innuendo, mild bad words, or violence or serious (though not quite mature) topics. • PG-13: Some violence, bad language, obvious sexual innuendo, implied sexual general relations. Also may include some mature topics such as suicide, homosexuality, drug/alcohol advocacy, rape aftermath, details of childbirth, etc. depending on the mores of the fandom involved. • R: Just-short-of-explicit sex, graphic torture or violence, rape. Not recommended for minors. • NC-17: explicit erotica, excessively gory violence. Often illegal for underage readers. • X: the same as NC-17 but only in reference to sex. No longer used by some fandoms. • XXX: Pure graphic badly-written porn -- rarely seen and not encouraged in fanfic circles. The dread eternal reason why fans vanish, authors stop posting, and archivists fall behind in their general duties. Often abbreviated to RL. Fanfic written about the actors or creators behind a fandom -- often abbreviated to RPF. Also called unknown but actorfic where appropriate. See also real-people recent slash. 181
