Unlike other fanfics, this one will probably have a slower pace. Since it's about mourning the dean, it will take time to develop the characters' feelings of loss. It won't be as action - packed as some other fanfics. Also, the relationships explored will be more about how the characters interact in the context of grief rather than other typical relationship dynamics.
It differs mainly in its emotional tone. While other fanfics might focus on adventure or romance, this one is centered around mourning. So it has a more somber and reflective mood.
In a Beginners Guide to Mourning the Dean Fanfic, it's different from other fanfics in several ways. The narrative will be driven by the process of mourning rather than external plot devices like in many action or mystery fanfics. Characterization will be deeply tied to how each character copes with the dean's death. There may be less emphasis on world - building if the story is set in an existing fandom world, as the focus is more on the emotional journey. And the resolution might not be as clear - cut as in some other fanfics, as mourning is a complex and ongoing process.
