Tbh this how fiction SHOULD be able to be handled, and is the core of why IP law is the devil.
This is my hill, but the modern form of storytelling belonging to the author is
Brand fucking new
Ass Fucking Backwards
The worst.
Corporate bullshit.
Oral tradition and storytelling tradition for all of human history has been derivative and spiraling. Nobody ever got fined for telling a variant on the Thesues myth. And the same thing holds today.
Cause some corporate suit fucks paid Lucas a bazillion dollars now the men with guns will stop you from playing pretend too good in THEIR way. This is THEIR PRETEND! WE OWN THESE THOUGHTS.
You'll never convince me that any of that makes sense.
Fuck two of my favorite pieces of writing are respectively Calvin and Hobbes fanfic and a Harry Potter one.
And Astartes is better than anything Amazon and Cavil will produce. And guess what? Suck it. He played pretend better than you did.
Not a big fanfiction fan but I'm with you and would go as far as saying "death of the author" is a good thing - just not as it's typically used, as a rationalization of leftist cultural subversion. It's not so much that there shouldn't be respect for the overall canon or integrity of a story, but that at the end of the day it's us fans who decide what to accept as canon.
If some weirdo writes a Kirk and Spock gay slash fanfic, most of us pay it no mind and it's forgotten. If someone produces a really good Star Trek spinoff series, we can accept that into the lore and include it in future stories. It shouldn't matter if Paramount suits approved the series or not. We decide.
One day a blow up at fanfiction made a making of a reading no more.
Oh no! say m0r1arty and made a making of account. We no let you write!! say fanfiction, you have two day to harvest first – HAHAHA.
m0r1arty danubed over to Google and made a searching of the internet. Oh no! scream all of fandom over the world who will make a typing of the stories? The moon and the sun making of a peace and god made agreed. We need a policing of the fanfiction boomed god and sent angel police who danubed through the windows a make a shooting of the servers.
Suddenly the stories make a real. The demons made a goings of this say Sherlock as he use riding crop on aliens. It not lupis say House as he step out of house so I am a biking with Wilson now bye bye. Rose made a chomping on Doctor hand Yum, yum I am a raptoring she say before Predator say hunting time for hunting and laser her with shoulder laser. The carebears kill predator with love rainbows from the bodies. John Lennon made of a crying and tears ressurected predator and Rose. Liverpol say the Beatles and Abba agree and hive five everybody. Suddenly the gravity danubed away and lifted the reality curtain. Oh no says Pip I am making of an observation sadly no more nature goggles. We all are imaginings yell Stephen Hawking which upset god. I should have been a goodly say devil as he vanish into nothing. MissingNo sighed as Sweden said goodly bye to the last bromine. A pirate makes a teardrop.
Suddenly all of fandom held their breath and made a not knowing of future…

About 12 years go my favourite (And only) fanfic writer was deleted from FanFiction.net for no discerning reason. I wrote my only fan fiction in memory of him 11 years ago:
