Drop the fics that you can't get out of your head. I have one that's been stuck in my head for months. I will drop it in the comments.

What do you like to write in the OUAT universe?

Do you have a favorite pairing, genre, AU, character, or type of story you keep coming back to? Maybe you write canon-compliant fic, fix-its, crossovers, or something completely different.

I'm curious what you like to write!

And if you'd like to share your stories, feel free to drop a link. Totally optional. This is just a chance to get to know the writers in the library and see what everyone is creating. 📖🖋️

What’s an underrated fic trope you’d love to see more of in OUAT fanfiction?

By trope, I mean a story pattern, character dynamic, relationship dynamic, pairing setup, AU idea, or fic premise.

And underrated doesn’t mean nobody writes it. Just something you think doesn’t get nearly enough attention in fandom.

For example:

• The person everyone relies on → Regina [everyone uses Rumple. I think its Regina and it underrated]
• The only one who really understands them → Regina/Hook [Both Evil in the EF trying to be better]
• Platonic boy/girl duo → Emma/Merlin [I really enjoyed their dynamic in 5A. Emma seemed to open up to him]

Basically: What’s something you wish OUAT fanfic explored more?

Drop the trope + your character or pairing example. 👀
