mst3kslash S2, and added tags, with figuring out memories situation later.
Now, I should actually work on actual slash stuff, but I don't have any workable slash at the forefront.
...
Speaking of slash, I was thinking that while there was a word for one who does gen (a generalist) and a person who does slash (a slasher) theres no word for a het person. So, hetador?
I mean, since slash has become to mean "non-cannoncialy male/male pairing" instead of "any pairing that isn't cannon," I'm at a loss to call pairings that are male/female and non-cannoncial. And since you can't have non-cannon pairings in gen works - or at least I think you can't - there's no words to describe it.
Of course, this is comming from an unrepentent slasher who is also cannon-hugger and I'm still not sure if that's possible.

- Relationshipper or 'Shipper is starting to morph into term for het writers.
- Slasher is for m/m writers,
- Femmeslasher is for f/f writers.
Note this is coming mostly from my sister, so it's leaning towards crime dramas and anime. Select pairings sometimes have their own name for writers as well. There's really no break between non-canon and canon in the terms. The fic is what it is.
I take gen as "any story where pairings aren't the point", not limiting it to canon or fanon pairings. You can have non-canon pairings in gen fic, given that they aren't the focus. Anonymity is gen, although it probably will have references to pairings at are not canon in the original fandoms. "Gen" is also becoming interchangeable with "plot fic" in some fandoms, which makes me very sad.
And "generalist"? That's a really, really stupid term. I prefer "gen ficcer" over that, and that's not the most creative name ever either.
