One example of a different type of fanfic is the 'gender - swap' fanfic. In this type, the genders of the characters are swapped from the original. So in a Naruto gender - swap fanfic, Naruto could be a female. There are also 'high school AU' fanfics. In a Harry Potter high school AU, Hogwarts could be a normal high school and the characters would be regular high school students with normal high school problems. And then there are 'reincarnation' fanfics. In a Sailor Moon reincarnation fanfic, the Sailor Scouts could be reincarnated in a different time and place.
Sure. A 'coffee shop AU' is a type of Alternate Universe fanfic. For example, in a Supernatural coffee shop AU, Sam and Dean might be baristas instead of hunters. Another type is the 'prequel' fanfic. It's like if someone wrote a story about what happened to the characters before the events of the original story started. For instance, a prequel fanfic for The Lord of the Rings could be about Aragorn's early adventures. There's also the 'time - travel' fanfic. In a Doctor Who time - travel fanfic, the Doctor might go back in time to meet a younger version of himself.
Well, there are continuation fanfics. These are like when a TV show ends but fans want more. For example, a 'Game of Thrones' fanfic that continues the story after the final season. Then there are crossovers. Say, a fanfic that combines the world of 'Harry Potter' with the world of 'Percy Jackson', so characters from both universes interact. There are also prequel fanfics. In the case of 'The Hunger Games', a prequel fanfic could be about the early days of Panem before Katniss was born, exploring how the Hunger Games came to be in more detail.
Well, the autonomous drones can be considered a type of robot in fiction. In some military - themed fictions, they are used for surveillance and attacks. Then there are the entertainment robots. In the movie 'Robot & Frank', Frank had a robot caretaker that also provided some entertainment. And the transformable robots, like the Autobots and Decepticons in 'Transformers', which can change their forms from vehicles to robots and vice versa.
Sure. For the urban setting, 'The Great Gatsby' has the wealthy Long Island as part of its setting. As for the historical setting, 'War and Peace' is set during the Napoleonic Wars. And for the rural setting, many of Thomas Hardy's novels are set in the English countryside.
Sure. For mystery visual novels, 'Zero Escape' series is a great example. It has complex puzzles and a mind - boggling plot. In terms of slice - of - life, 'Summer Pockets' is a lovely one that shows the beauty of a summer on an island. For the horror type, 'Ib' is a well - known visual novel that takes place in a creepy art gallery.
Sure. For the type of historical romance, 'Outlander' is a great example. It combines historical events with a love story. Another type is historical drama, and 'Schindler's List' fits this. It's a very powerful drama based on real - life historical events during the Holocaust. And for historical adventure, 'The Three Musketeers' is a classic, full of swashbuckling action in a historical French setting.
Happy ending example: In 'The Little Mermaid' (the original version), the mermaid turns into a spirit of the air after sacrificing herself, which is a form of a happy ending as she gets a chance at an afterlife. Sad ending: In 'Of Mice and Men', George has to shoot Lennie, which is a tragic end. For an open - ended ending, in some detective stories, the detective may have several leads at the end but the story stops there, leaving it up to the reader to decide what might be the solution.
Of course. In the case of military historical novels, 'Waterloo' by Bernard Cornwell is a good one as it vividly portrays the famous battle. For historical romances, 'Pride and Prejudice' can be considered as it has a love story in the English countryside during a certain historical period. For epic historical novels, 'The Lord of the Rings' (while it's a fantasy, it also has elements of an epic historical story in its own created world) shows large - scale battles and historical - like developments. For biographical historical novels, 'Steve Jobs' by Walter Isaacson tells the story of the tech icon.
Sure. For the magical world, 'Harry Potter' series has Hogwarts, a school full of magic. In the cyberpunk world, 'Blade Runner' shows a future with high - tech and a gritty urban environment. And for the parallel universe world, 'Sliding Doors' presents two different timelines based on a single event.
There are many examples. In adventure fiction, 'Treasure Island' by Robert Louis Stevenson is a great one. For historical fiction, 'The Pillars of the Earth' by Ken Follett. And in horror, 'Dracula' by Bram Stoker is very well - known. These books are representative of their respective types of fiction.
The conclusive ending where all loose ends are tied up neatly. Every question that was raised in the story has an answer. If it was a mystery story, all the clues come together and the mystery is solved. All the characters' fates are clearly defined, and there is no room for speculation or ambiguity.
