Remember how in my post about Tara Gilesbie I mentioned that my friends and I had recorded our own dramatic reading of My Immortal? Well, my sister suggested to me that we start doing that with more fan fictions and posting the recordings on my blog. I asked my friends if they would be interested, and they were.
And so, I am happy to announce my new series, if you want to call it that, in which my friends and I will read and commentate on bad-but-funny fan fictions and post them on here for the world to enjoy. I don’t know how often we’ll be able to do this. We’ll try to do it as frequently as possible (that’s what she said?), but don’t expect regular posts for this series. Meanwhile, I will still be making somewhat regular posts about random things that only I seem to care about.
My friend Corissa (a.k.a Cori), Faye and Alfredo were the ones who did the My Immortal readings with me, and the four of us will be undertaking this little project, but perhaps other friends of ours will join us if they’re interested.
If you know of any bad fan fictions we can read, let me know. They can be about anything, but they have to be funny bad, not disturbing bad. Don’t suggest anything like Pokémon Story, please.
Not-so-quick explanation: Pokémon Story is an infamous fan fiction about a trainer named David (same name as the author, so it’s obviously supposed to be his self-insert) who has a female Gardevoir. For those who don’t know, Gardevoir is a Pokémon from Generation 3 who is one of the very few human-like Pokémon that is actually nice-looking and not creepy. Now, I’d already seen some weirdly sexual fan art of Gardevoir, but Pokémon Story took it to another level. David apparently thinks Gardevoir is hot, even though she’s a Pokémon, and so he… rapes her. It’s quite descriptive and very disturbing. I couldn’t even finish reading it. The author of that fan fiction is a sick, sick man. Even worse, Gardevoir is one of my favorite Gen 3 Pokémon, but it’s hard to look at her the same way after reading that fan fiction.
So yeah. Don’t send me anything like that. I want fan fictions that will give me a good laugh, not make me want to burn my Pokémon games.
Hopefully, this series will be enjoyable for the five people who actually read my blog. Stay tuned!
