  • Revenge Fic
rdfs:comment
  • When the writer has a chip on his shoulder for whatever reason, and inflicts misery on a character perceived to deserve it. Often occurs when the character's role is incidental and the writer really just has a problem with the distinct personality type, or if the character is in the way of the writer's pairing of choice. Another name for it is Anti Fic, although this term implies a degree of clever and biting satire. This type of fic is more commonly referred to as Bashing Fic. If it's for an entire series rather than a single character, it's a Hate Fic. Examples of Revenge Fic include:

In some circles (such as the Anime Fan Fiction Mailing List), a Revenge Fic can also be about characters stepping out of the fictional realm to inflict some kind of revenge on the fanfiction author for the things he or she made them do. This can be a variety of Meta Fic, and somewhat impinges on and overlaps with the conceit of Animated Actors. If this is done by the original author, it might be Derailing Love Interests or a form of Creator Backlash. Can be closely allied to Die for Our Ship or Oh Crap There Are Fanfics of Us. If it's for an entire series rather than a single character, it's a Hate Fic. Examples of Revenge Fic include:
