archangelm127 Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 I didn't know where else to post this thread, so if it's in the wrong part of the forum, I apologize. Question: What precisely does the story code "WAFF" ("Warm and Fuzzy Feeling") connotate? I would presume it's akin to romance, but I've never heard it used in this context before so I thought I'd better ask before using it to label my stories. ^^ Quote
shinigamiinochi Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 We had a discussion about this awhile back, WAFF is extreme sap, romance that so corny that you can't help but roll your eyes. WAFF is to sap as yaoi is to slash, it's just that WAFF and yaoi are for anime stories only. It's because those words originated in the anime fiction world and not in other fandoms, though I think you should be able to use them in any fandom. Quote
maidenhair Posted July 26, 2008 Report Posted July 26, 2008 I honestly don't have an answer for you but you might want to check out this thread... http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/inde...?showtopic=5838 ...as this question has come up before. I say use it liberally and confuse your readers! Quote
archangelm127 Posted July 26, 2008 Author Report Posted July 26, 2008 I wouldn't call my two stories thus far "extreme" sap, but they are romance tales. One might argue that pretty much everything we all do here is just silliness, now that I think about it. No idea whether my stories qualify. Maybe someone can give me an unbiased opinion? Linky. In any case, thank you, shinigamiinochi and maidenhair! Quote
JayDee Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 Now there's a story code I don't have much use for Quote
