What's your opinion on crack fics? If you like them then post your favorites here or shill your own and see if other people like them. I await your response.

I think Crack Fics usually only really work as Oneshots, simply because the vast majority of the time, the cast has only the tiniest of connections to the actual character.

Also, any fic which is just "Random stuff happening, hurr durr, bad guys are cats now, and that guy is naked for lols!" is inherently awful. Also, being mobbed by fangirls. Cut that shit out.

Honestly if a good author writes a crack fic it can still be amazing, the problem is that a great many "crack fics" are written by terrible authors who then use the excuse that since it's a crack fic things like "character" and "having a cohesive plot" don't matter.

Crack Fics are AMAZING. Also I've seen more than a few crack fics get off the stuff and then go on to jump genres and become decent stories in of themselves. That's always interesting to see.

I'll add my two cents, nothing sends me into a fit a joy and laughter like reading a crack fic and nothing sends me into a pit of despair faster than knowing it will never be finished or continued R.I.P Chilord you mad bastard

This is why many of the best crack fics are single chapters. They're fits of creative insanity, best written and published in a burst of energy. It's hard to sustain, even if you keep your health. Some people are better at crack, some at serious, some at humor. (I tend towards humor with moments of crack. It's easier to keep going.)

I recall an Evangelion fic that started as something of a crack fic, but was reasonably well received.


Can't think why people thought that the idea of Shinji Ikari being raised by a porn star would be any good though.

Sounds like something you might write. :p
