If you're interested in #fanfiction in academic terms (or interested in fanfiction full stop) check out our student conference next week (accessible online)!
Very much looking forward to the keynote by @julianeugarten.bsky.social & exciting presentations by BA & MA students from Germany and the UK.

"Where traditional creative writing workshops rely on clear hierarchies, genre coherence, and marketable-length works, #fanfiction communities tend to play with these. There is no single authority whose judgement is final."
This one is unfinished but it's an AU where Sada built AI Turo after the real one died much earlier than in canon. He has no idea that he's his own replacement and it's heartbreaking (in the best way)

BOY DO I HAVE THE SERIES FOR YOU. You like Pokémon? You like robots? You think the robots from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet got a raw deal? Have a post-Violet series that helps remedy that! I also have other stories taking place in Scarletverse, and some about both!

Le lieutenant Connor Doherty avait l'impression que sa vie atteignait une impasse. Mais lorsqu'une affaire et un partenaire qu'il n'aurait jamais voulu rencontrer le plongent dans une tourmente grandissante parmi les androïdes, il va peut-être trouver un nouveau souffle.

📒Aujourd’hui, c’est le #ZineAppreciationDay ! Le thème de cette semaine est la place des IA dans les fanfiction, et puisqu’il n’y a (probablement) pas de zines faites par IA, j’ai décidé de présenter des zines sur Portal, mon jeu vidéo préféré sur les IA/robot :) Les voici sur ce fil ⬇️ #zine (1/4)

📒Today is #ZineAppreciationDay! This week's theme is the role of AI in fanfiction, and since there are (probably) no zines made with AI, I decided to feature some zines about Portal, my favorite video game about AI/robot :) Here they are in this thread ⬇️ #zine (1/4)
