A Guide to Fanfiction Tropes and Genres:
đŞI made this cuz honestly, why not lol. For people who are beginners to the fanfiction universe. For anyone who wants to get a glimpse of what this world is like and the common themes used in this "off-the-wall piece of literature". Could be for research purposes or for curiosity, or maybe you want to start writing stuff but not sure what things you might use. No matter who is reading this, I hope this guide helps you.
--I also made this for myself, as a lil handbook to look at while categorizing the fanfics i collect in my blog.
đŚThere are genres/topes/themes which you won't be seeing much or any at all particularly in my blog; but I wanted to add them to the lists anyways because they are widely used in fanfiction. I tried to include the main, most common things used in fanfics. Because in reality, the possibilities in a fanfic are endless.
--Many of these are self explanatory so I didn't add extra info to most of them.
This may be used by other fandoms as well. Since this is a Jungkook based account, he is used for some of the examples. You can replace him with anyone you wish to write/read about.
đĽI added most things myself from the knowledge accumulated through my years of experience in fanfiction consumption. For the things I thought I might have missed, I used multiple websites and a reddit post as a referance, which I will credit their links at the very end.
đŤShoutout to chatgpt for alphabetizing my lists in the end. It would take me ages to edit this
đŠ If you think there is anything I missed, feel free to contact me, I can always edit this post to add new things.
PS: I chose to omit much of the specificities of explicit content (such as specific kinks). I tried to keep things a bit chill. Most likely the authors will include the details of the explicit events in their explanation section. You will know what they are when you see them.

-The end
â ď¸You may reblog or share the link of my post. But please dont repost this without crediting me.
AUs I kinda want
- you smacked me in the face while telling a story but donât stop, I really wanna know what happened to your grandma
- you stole my window seat on the airplane and Iâm about to give you a long ass complaint but oh god youâre really cute and itâs your first time flying and fine, okay, guess Iâm sitting in the middle seat now
- I stole your Netflix password from our mutual friend and normally I just quietly watch storage wars but itâs three in the morning and youâre watching Legally Blonde 2, is everything alright?
- I accidentally said your name wrong one time when you first ordered at my coffee shop and now youâre getting revenge by mispronouncing mine in increasingly horrible ways- no, itâs NOT yam, try again asshole
- Iâm a demon and you just summoned me but as Iâm hanging around in preparation for fulfilling the deal, weâre starting to talk and youâre actually a really good person, maybe you shouldnât sell your soul for this.
- you're super good at this class and Iâm really bad at it and I know we donât really like each other but can you please, please tutor me? Iâll do anything
- you heard me ranting about a play I saw three weeks ago that you really liked and now weâre in the middle of a passionate debate and I guess youâre right about the staging being good but you canât argue that the romance was horrendous
Some more AUs I want
- You always take up two parking spaces in the communal garage for our apartment building and it pisses me off because SERIOUSLY?!? so Iâve printed out a snarky coloring book page (âif you master coloring between the lines on here, there may be hope for your parkingâ) but you catch me sticking it to your windshield and, hey, how dare you say that about my mother, do you wanna fight?
- Weâre both shopping for Christmas trees and Iâve found the perfect one but itâs caught your eye as well and Iâm more than willing to fight for this but you also look really cold and tired so maybe we can work this out over some hot cocoa and, oh, well, now we're under some mistletoe, guess we have to kiss
- Iâve had a crush on you forever but weâve never actually spoken because youâre hot and Iâm shy but now youâre walking over here and ohmygod you look even cuter up close what the fuck do I do?
- I subtly referenced a show I really love in one of my poems for English and now the teacher says we have to peer review so here you go- wait, why do you look so excited!?- do you watch it too!? Whoâs your favorite character???
- Iâm walking my dog and I don't know why but he really wants to get up in your lap Iâm so so sorry about spilling your coffee can I buy you another one?
- I know itâs late and I only know you through one of my more distant friends but I know you live in my neighborhood and I just fell and hurt my leg and I donât think I can walk, oh god, can you please please come to get me?
- My car broke down and now I rely on you for rides everywhere and Iâm sorry but we are NOT listening to anymore Adele no matter what you say about her talent if you want breakup songs at least have some self-respect and go with Taylor Swift
- Iâm waiting for my friend to be done donating blood but youâre really cute and youâre ushering me into a waiting room and I guess this is my life now- how much will I be giving away again?
Camp Counselor AUs
Just got back from being a counselor in training at my favorite camp ever and Iâm feeling inspired.
- One of my campers just shoved 12 cherry tomatoes into her mouth and spat them up into the air and I know you saw it too and now weâre both making eye contact and if you keep making that dumb face Iâm going to die laughing please have mercy
- Weâre doing some conflict resolution exercises and weâre supposed to pretend to be a pair of campers who got in a fight while the third member of our group is the counselor but youâre really into this and itâs honestly super cute oh my god, how did I never notice this before?
- A kid from my cabin and a kid from your cabin are obviously crushing on one another and weâve decided to help them get together but along the way, we start to bond and Iâm accidentally sabotaging out kids so we can keep hanging out all the time but you found out and now youâre pissed and how do IÂ explain myself!?
- Weâre co-counseling the youngest group of kids together and theyâve decided that we absolutely have to get married so now weâre holding a makeshift wedding ceremony and theyâre insisting we kiss and you look so pretty up close and Iâm about to die of embarrassment, please help.
- One of our nighttime activities is stargazing and apparently youâre a mythology nerd so you start telling our campers all the stories and I can help but notice how cute you are while youâre all animated and excited because normally youâre kind of shy and this is something Iâve never gotten to see before
- Weâre in the middle of a vicious prank war and you decided to individually wrap everything on my bed in plastic wrap which Iâd normally find pretty funny but itâs really late and I donât have the time to deal with this so scoot over asshole, itâs bed-sharing time
- Itâs movie night for our campers and weâre sitting in the back sharing popcorn but one of the characters just made a joke that definitely wasnât child-appropriate and Iâm dying laughing but all our kids are confused and now Iâm choking on a popcorn kernel, help!!
- Weâre crafting and you want to make a flower crown but youâre also really bad at this so youâve recruited me to help you and I keep getting distracted by how adorable you are when youâre concentrating really hard on something and when weâre finally done itâs an awful flower crown but you look so happy with it and I just cant.
Some cute aus
- I've had the worst artist's block for ages and it's really starting to seem like I'll never be inspired again but I saw you in my figure drawing class and holy shit, I have to paint you!!!! Would you please, please sit for me!? I'll love you forever if you do!
- I'm new to this flower shop and I'm arranging the roses when you bust in, slap a twenty down on the counter, and demand that I give you a bouquet that means fuck you in flower language only I don't know flower language and now you're yelling at me for refusing to help you and oh my god, I'm about to cry
- I got trashed as hell at a party and accidentally summoned a demon??? Idk how, but they're following me around and terrorizing the neighborhood cats when I sleep and they're actually, like, wicked funny and super sweet when they want to be and kinda cute- side note: did I fall in love with a fucking demon!?!?
- My homophobic aunt made one too many sly remarks about Lisa and her girlfriend and I'm pissed as all hell so I grab the nearest waiter and kiss him/her right in front of her. TAKE THAT AUNT MARGERY, also sorry about that, can I maybe take you out for coffee some time? As an apology?
- Yes, I am a fairy and I'm small and sparkly, but if you keep calling me cute I swear to god I'll chew off your fingers and steal your cat, I am being serious here how dare you fucking laugh!!!
- I'm at a debate tournament and I just lost to you and the judge basically ripped me to shreds over a couple of mistakes and I'm literally holding back tears and as soon as we leave the room I start crying and not only do you comfort me, you offer to buy me some donuts from the refreshments stand. I think I'm in love
- A storm knocked out my power and I just bought ten gallons of ice cream- please don't ask why- will you come over and eat it with me before it all melts?!? I'm desperate.
Meet ugly
- So I may or may not have maced you because thereâs this really creepy guy whoâs been showing upside my house and I finally worked up the courage to face him but he wasnât him he was you and oh god youâre crying, please donât do that, Iâm so fucking sorry let me help you inside!!
- My new puppy is a sweet and precious darling whose only sin is that sheâs not potty trained and I warned you not to come any closer but... yep... there she goes. Sorry about the piss all over your shoes, I guess.
- You were a simple roofer, stapling shingles down onto my neighborâs roof. I was a jackass who decided to play baseball in the front yard despite knowing my aim was horrible. We are the idiots who ended up in the ER because you stapled your hand three times and I feel too responsible to leave you alone like this. How much hospital coffee will it take to make this up?
- So maybe I was in the wrong when I punched through your car window but what are you gonna do? Sue me??? Oh shit, fuck, I didnât mean literally! Iâm so so so sorry, please donât call your lawyer on me Iâm too poor for this!!
- no specific prompt but can you just imagine a hooker x undercover cop au?? that would be pretty epic.
Some gay prompt shit
Iâm big gay, I have thoughts, here we go
1. BIG soldier lady and small, waspy, annoyed medic who has to deal with her constant injuries. Obv a wartime thing. She never realized how much big dumb lesbian means to her until she fucking gets stabbed and itâs up to her to save the life of her crush. Itâs got angst, itâs got whump, itâs got fucking everything!!
2. Hot pirate captain lady with probably a corset or smth b/c Iâm gay and her prim, proper, noblewoman gf who ran away from her shitty parents for that sexy pirate lifestyle of adventure on the high seas. They are the original proprietors of be gay do crime. They are everything I need in life.
3. the Cool Out Suave New Wave Gay Girl and the one girl who just kind of realized that like??? maybe the reason I donât feel attracted to guys is because iâm gay??? and they go to hs and are both very in love and you will now write a 300,000 word story abt their dumb pining asses as they both assume the other couldnât possibly like them while going on dozens of dates that they donât realize are dates
4. Creative writing class. High school. One of them writes moody high-atmosphere murder mystery stories. One of them writes soft love stories abt gay cowgirls riding off into the sunset together. They fall in love slowly, over the course of senior year, and write stories together in the sunshine filled courtyard and there is Yearning.
5. Cowgirl romance! There is cowgirl one and cowgirl two and one of them wears her hair in like... trendy braids, and the other has hers cut really short and dresses kind of masculine and both of them are grubby but like in a cute way and they are so in L O V E. (what if we kissed right after we drove the cows home? jk jk!!... đł... unless...)
- youâre a big content creator in a few of my favorite fandoms and I make a point to follow your blogs because I think youâre pretty cool and holy shit you just fucking followed me and why and how and oh my god, could we be mutuals? Yes?? Really???
- So weâve been chatting on and off for a couple months but recently weâve been talking like... all the time and... well, you are in my city. And... I have been wanting to meet you. And... well, honestly what could it hurt? Wanna get bubble tea next tuesday?
- Iâve been struggling with my weight for quite a while and itâs really starting to mess with me so I decided to hire a personal trainer and holy shit? You keep giving me all these sweet little compliments and encouraging me and I never realized a person could make me feel so good about myself?Â
- It turns out that moving cross country is like hard(??) and I also know that we donât like know each other know each other but none of my other friends live in new york and youâve got a really nice truck and wonât this be a nice way for us to bond? Donât you wanna come and get to know me? Just a little bit?? Please??? (Iâd pay for a moving company but Iâm broke as hell)

AU List
Hello! Welcome! This is my attempt at keeping the AU's boiuncing around in my head in order. They should be mostly in chronological order.
Some of them are getting turned into full length fics! The list (and it's open to suggestions) can be found here: Fic List
A couple of things:
Please feel free to write your own fics based on any of these! No need to ask, simply link it so I can also read it <3
If you have any specific scenarios you have an idea for and would like me to write- my asks/prompts are always open! I can't guarantee quality as I do most of my writing at like, 3 AM but I'll try my best!
I don't condone racism, bigotry, homophobia, etc.. I do not welcome it here. I acknowledge that I have biases that I've yet to unlearn. If there's something that makes you feel unwelcome in the things I write, please let me know and I will fix it ASAP.
I write these mostly on little to no sleep (thatâs when I get creative I guess?) so good luck.
