Robot vs Vampire: WHO WOULD WIN?

[Weltall]

Personally, I don't like fan fiction.

Now, I have read some great ones. IcyBrian has a lot, and there was one called the SquareFiction library (which sadly no longer exists), and in some of those, you had stories that actually took these characters and, without changing basic factors of their motive or personality, actually make them deeper and more interesting.

For instance, there was one short Xenogears fic (and I think it was at that site with all the nasty) about Fei, and how he handles trying to be a father to Emeralda (since he technically is also Kim Kasim, the man who created her). It was really touching, and it left me feeling good after reading it.

However, most of them lack creativity or are poorly-written (If something is written and there are lots of spelling or grammar errors, I can't read it), and those that aren't total crap are often unimaginative or take creative liberty way too far.

I love to write fiction, but I'm far too much of a control freak to write fan fiction, even if I wanted to, for writing fan fiction involves taking someone else's characters, world, setting, and you have to at least loosely follow the rules of this creation. When I write my own fiction, every single facet that is mine to shape and control as I see fit. When I'm on a roll and writing something I really like, I feel an empathy with my characters that I cannot feel with someone elses, for I know my characters better than anyone else ever can. I know every one of their dirty little secrets and hidden desires, for they are all the result of me.
