MY FAVOURITE THING EVER EVER EVER: BREAKING UP FIC CLICHES.

Here are some suggestions! (sorry for repeats -- this is part of my MASTER LIST, also used here in part.)

Overall "Story Type" cliches
- Vampires
- Pirates
- High School AU
- Elves
- Mermaids (XDDD PLEASE) have you seen the Quistis is a mermaid fic?
- ___ got sucked into the game (bonus points if you avoid a Mary Sue!)
- ___ gets sent into the past/future and has to work with someone's parents/children
- Taking a vacation!

Romantic Cliches
- AU Rivalry (High school jocks/nerds, Old West sheriff/outlaw,
- X tries to commit suicide and Y saves him/her and/or nurses him/her back to health
- X sleeps with Y once and gets pregnant (bonus for Mpreg!)
- MYSTERIOUS STRANGER


Personal Cliches
- ___ discovers a mysterious power / secret about their past
- ___ and ___ find out they are related!
- ___ finds his/her long-lost sister/brother/mother!
