Mostly they're just stupid. ;) It's stories where characters are auctioned away for charity. The bidders then win a dinner with the auctioned off parties. Of course the author's favorite couple 'win' each other (who wins who all depends on whether it's men or women who are being thus exploited in the story) and romance ensues. Usually there's a bidding war with some unworthy stranger or former love interest, whose bids make the bidding half of the couple realize either that he/she must come to the rescue of the (wo)man they have been secretly in love with for the longest time, or "Zomg! I'm totally in love with that person. Why didn't I see that before?"
Did that make sense? *is confused*
Good luck finding good WaTfic! I've been looking for the last 2 months and nothing....
But there USED to be good stuff, right? Why isn't it still out there somewhere? I don't mind that it's old, I just want it to be good. Why is that too much to ask??
Script? Program? How much easier would that be... I went kinda crazy last night and wrote the beginnings of an FAQ (Because it seemed an easy place to start and I was feeling snarky) and found a host and everything. Basically, all I need now is a layout and some graphics. Oh, and stories. Which is where I get stuck.
