Me too...I'm afraid. Anyway, if you like Fry/Amy pairing so much, you should write your own fics, yes? just don't expect anybody to like them...*hides under a chair*Umm...What does Inu-Yasha have to do with this? *is confused *

By all means, if you can't find any Amy/Fry fan fiction, write one of your own. As for a Naraku/Kagome pairing... that's not quite as crazy as it sounds. Naraku lusts after Kikyo, and Kagome is the reincarnation of Kikyo, so it's possible he could have similar feelings for her. It would be completely one-sided though, as the only feeling Kagome has toward Naraku is righteous fury. I went completely of topic there, didn't I? Sorry about that.

Here is the address of my naraku/kagome fan fic, if you ever want to read it. http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1497178 i think it's good, but you tell me. anyway, back to topic. i think i will write it, when i finish with my own naraku/kagome fan fic. thing is, i find futrama too damn shallow to really write about. inuyasha is much deeper as far as character and plot depth go. there are also many more characters to play with and such. futurama has very onsided characteres. farnsworth will always be insane, amy will always be asian and a little crazy, leela a biatch, fry an idiot. BAM!! i just kick my disliking of this show up a notch! oh well. i'll write it. but i am unsure of how i can for reasons stated above. can anyone prove me wrong on this one? i mean i just don't see it. call me a blind man in a black room looking for a black cat that isn't there, but i just can's see the depth i prefer to work with. if you read my inuyasha fan fic, you will see how i can write and how i need good continuation of plot and character development.

Amen, poppler-new-person-with-a-lower-rank-than-me-who-makes-me-feel-better-about-myself! If a show is shallow, make the fanfics deep like deep fried onion rings! Although I don't really agree that Futurama is shallow. :/ At least you get to see some of the characters' back-stories that let us know why they're the way they are today. (Well, you know. 'Today' in the future. Wait, that doesn't make sense, I'm confusing myself! ) I should stop rambling while I'm still sane. Anyway, we're all open to opinions here! Just state it politely and maybe everyone will take you seriously.

ok ok....i can do that
but i find my self asking....to lemon or not to lemon....for all those who do not know what a lemon is, it is a term used for sexual conted in a fan fic, AKA, full blown romance novel getting it on.
in my last futurama fic you all seemed to hate, vehemently, i meerly stated that it happened, but i have reached a point in my writting that i would like to add it in, besides, ff.net has no truly rated R fan fics! NONE!!! two are a digimon crossover that SUCKS! and the other three hardly warrent R material.
so i ask you, to lemon or not to lemon? would you think less of me if i did? and, if i did choose to lemon, what pairings would you want? that is, besides the obvious fry/amy pairing.

In my own opinion I agree with just about everything Teral just said, which...kinda defeats the thing of it being my "own" opinion. Anwho. You can have What If fics sure, but if someone writes it well enough, then probably the reader is willing to believe everything the writer puts down. If you want to write a story in which Fry and Amy (or whoever) have sex, then by all means, go ahead. The way I see it though, Sexual Intercourse in a storyline can be split up into 3 sections: Before, During and After. Or A, B and C. I would suggest the best thing is to do A then jump straight to C. Do whatever the hell you feel like in C, for instance you could make it extremely obvious what's just happened, or even hint as to how it happened. But leave the rest to the reader's imagination. I *personally* believe it would work better that way, then no one is offended by choice of words (if they would be offended in the first place) and everyone can happily have their own nice little idea of what happened in B. I read a couple of years ago Eric Idle's "Road To Mars" which is a very good read, but it does have a sex scene or two discribing in some detail. Done well, then there's no definite reason why you cannot write a sex scene in detail (unless you're writing a children's book ). But the only problem then is that this would run up against various policies of various websites. Though Teral will notice my hypocracy here since he knows that some of the more racy parts of my WIP fanfic are quite "detailed"...

I don't think that getak is trying to be a troll. He's just stating his opinions.
There is a difference between a post that says, "I don't really like this show, and here's why..." and one that says, "Futurama sucks! You people should get a life."
The latter contributes nothing, and is obviously meant to piss people off. The former is just stating an opinion. It may be an unpopular opinion that you disagree with, but it's still just as valid as any other opinion.
Yes, it may be strange to post on a message board about a show you don't like; but if that's what getak wants to do, what's wrong with it? As long as he's not insulting to other posters, I don't see a problem.
[edit] I hadn't seen getak's last post when I wrote this. Then again, Pitt was provoking him. Knock it off, both of you. [/edit]
As far as the lemon question goes, I agree with Teral and Zed. Sex in a story is okay, but don't actually describe the act. At worst, it's offensive; at best, it just distracts from what might otherwise be a good story.

Closing this thread as Amy goes out with Kif and Fry continues to chase Leela.
They had a relationship in "Put Your Head On My Shoulders" which ended this whole idea. Amy made a further reference that there would be no hope in "Time Keeps On Slipping" with regards to Fry not being a great lover.
