flashforward

Well, in a flashforward novel, one characteristic is that it can play with the readers' expectations. By revealing future events early, it might make readers constantly compare the present situation in the story with what they already know about the future. Also, it can be used to build complex plot structures. For example, the events shown in the flashforward might seem impossible at first given the current state of affairs in the story, but as the plot progresses, the pieces start to fall into place and the connection between the present and the future becomes clear. This makes the reading experience more engaging as readers are constantly trying to figure out how the story will get to that future point.

Yes, it can. Starting a story with a flashforward can immediately draw the reader in and set up expectations or mysteries that drive the plot forward. It's a bold choice but can be very effective if done well.

I don't have the exact answer for you. Sometimes these flashforwards can be inspired by a combination of various literary sources or could even be an original concept not based on any specific novel.

In this story, the light room could also be a place of transformation. The boy, who might be initially shy or scared, grows in confidence under the man's guidance. The flashforward could be a glimpse into their future relationship, showing how they will change and influence each other over time.

One well - known flashforward novel is 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut. It uses flashforwards in a unique way to tell the story of Billy Pilgrim's time - traveling experiences.

The man could be a father figure to the boy. They might be having a serious conversation in the light room. Maybe the boy has done something wrong at school, and the man is trying to correct him and give him advice on how to be a better person.

An idea could be a world where magic is illegal, and those with magical abilities are hunted down. The story could follow a young magician on the run. He discovers an ancient, hidden society of magic - users who are planning a revolution. He has to decide whether to join them and fight for the right to use magic freely or try to find a way to live without magic in a world that hates him for it.

One idea could be that Percy is under a spell or some kind of mind control when he kidnaps Reyna. Maybe a new villain has emerged and is using Percy as a tool. In the fanfiction, Percy might be fighting against this internal force while Reyna is trying to figure out how to break the spell on him.

Achilles is the most important character. His mother Thetis also plays a key role as she is involved in his invulnerability. Then there's Agamemnon, with whom Achilles has a major conflict. Patroclus, Achilles' close friend, is also an important character.

One common theme is the clash of different worlds. Since Bella is from the 'Twilight' universe and Draco from 'Harry Potter', their different magical systems and cultures often collide. Another theme is the idea of forbidden love. Their different backgrounds and the fact that they belong to different fictional universes make their relationship seem forbidden. And there's also the theme of self - discovery. As they interact, they both learn more about themselves.
