botiasI have a confession to make. I rewrote someone's fic once. Took the dirtybad offspring of their imagination and did all sorts of precious things to it. I was rather pleased with the result, and sorry I could never share it with anyone.
Technically, there's no reason why I shouldn't so long as I credited the original author. Isn't it just fan fiction of fan fiction? But with great availability comes great responsibility I guess. Online fan fiction is not just a relationship between a reader and an inert chunk of cellulose; it is a community. Asking first would only be polite. I wonder how many fan fiction writers would say 'yes' to such a request the way Joss did?
