Re: Off Topicness of Fanfics

>W/Anya would be on topic here?

Not on topic, but not completely off-topic, either. B/W is first,
first, last and always. But if an author, having written B/W for us,
wanted to post a W/Anya fic, s/he could, and would have to merely note
the pairing in the pairing line, not flag the whole thing as OT. When
Pat posts more of "Human Layers" (Buffy/Cordy) or the Gopher and Red
continue "Three Years in Hell" ("Beth"/Faith), they don't have to mark
them as "OT", but this is more of a courtesy to the authors, not because
B/C or B/F have equal status with B/W here.

There are degrees of topicality, and I'm sure I'm muddying the waters by
trying to explain them. (Gah.) Anyhow, the easiest way to make all of
this moot is for people to write lots and lots of B/W fics :)
