badfic stats! oh the humanity!

[xparrot]

Is this the future of One Piece fic? There are 35,000 stories now listed on ff.net's YGO section. Of the first 100 fics (all posted/updated within the last 24 hours or so), there are 20 without spelling or grammar mistakes in either the title or the summary (my favorite is "Kaiba becomes a supper hero" - he starts volunteering at a soup kitchen?). There are surprisingly only 11 obvious Mary Sues, mostly going after Kaiba - Seto-sama gets a lot of action, of the 63 romance/pairing fics, 31 list him in the pairings. Shizuka narrowly beats her brother in bagging everyone's favorite asshole CEO, 8 SetoxShizuka to 7 SetoxJou. Impressive, considering in the series I don't think Shizuka and Kaiba have ever actually exchanged words.

And yeah, I'm still posting there anyway - here's my latest fic, courtesy of gnine, who came up with the whole thing. Featuring time travel, Kaiba angst, and people who take their card games way too seriously...

Your icon still amuses me greatly :)

and *ack* to the bad fic listing...and even GREATER FUCKING ACK TO THE FACT YOU'RE SPENDING TIME LOOKING THIS UP INSTEAD OF WRITING!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRR!!

*huggles*

having a blast here, btw...but you still need to WRITE!!!

Ahahaha. Badfic. Bless it. Ahem. And this only further proves my theory. Everyone gets a piece of Jou's sister. Whether it makes sense or not.

But your fic. Eee! I meant to say something about it a couple days ago when I read the first part. It just makes me so gleeful because time travel... yea, I'll count that as being odd AU fic. And god knows AUs are my personal kind of crack.

Everyone gets a piece of Jou and his sister - I think Jou probably came second in the pairing count after Seto. Considering his dub voice, I'm frankly amazed. No Jou/Shizuka in that 100 but I'm sure if I went back a few pages...

yeah, time travel futures are definitely AU-ish. I'm weird about AUs, a lot of times I don't go for them, but when they work, magnifique! and I'm fond of futurefic. this story isn't going to be long enough to really explore the scenario, but it was hella fun working out the details of it all the same.

Oh, its already started in the OP fandom- I've already seen the 'zolo' fiction cropping up, and ginnyseta posted a link to the fic about Nami, Zoro, and his MASSIVE COCK(tm) (which could apparently take over the world...). That one, at least, was funny-bad.

Supper hero...? *giggles madly* Thats it, now I have to write that... XD

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Yes, write it! Sanji is SO a Supper Hero!!

[lady-karasu.livejournal.com]

Aww hell, now I have to write two of them... *giggles* I had a total mental image of Kaiba accosting people in back alleys with a ladle. Now I have Sanji in tights... *giggles some more* Ya, I'll do 'em both. XD

(I LOVE your icon, btw... [well, both of them, but I mean the one for the post... ^_^])

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

thanks for the icon love - gotta love the big brothers! ^_^

and Sanji in tights could never be a bad thing. nor is making fun of Kaiba ^__^

Hi!

[scriva.livejournal.com]

I just wanted to ask if I can friend you. I've read (some/most of) your stories on ff.net, and you write the stories for fandoms I like to read, like GetBackers and One Piece, and I also liked the newest Yu-Gi-Oh-story you've posted. (Kaiba is the only really interesting character for me, because he makes me always smirk.)

So, I hope it doesn't bother you.

Re: Hi!

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Doesn't bother me in the slightest - the more the merrier, please do come aboard! ^_^ Glad you've enjoyed the stories - and good that you like Kaiba! YGO is my latest craze (...I think that's pretty pathetically obvious ^^;) and while I'm fond of several of the chars, Kaiba is far and away my favorite (well, Kaibas. Mokuba & Seto are a package deal). So there's gonna be more YGO fic on the way from me, but it's *all* Kaiba...
