It's hard to say for sure without reading the specific fanfiction, but it could likely include some of the classic Star Trek characters like Captain Kirk or Captain Picard. They are central figures in the Star Trek universe and would be prime candidates for having their destinies tangled.
One possible interesting plotline could be the unexpected alliances that form between different species in the Star Trek universe within the context of 'tangled destinies'. Maybe a Klingon and a Vulcan have to work together due to some strange cosmic event that ties their destinies. Another could be the exploration of alternate timelines where the destinies of beloved characters are tangled in ways that change the course of the Star Trek story we know.
It can seem strange at first. However, if we think of it in terms of the franchise's influence on the fanfiction and vice versa, it's not so odd. The official Star Trek has inspired a vast amount of fanfiction. And in a way, the existence of that fanfiction is like a feedback loop that the franchise can 'observe'. So, while it's an odd concept literally, it makes more sense when considering the relationship between the two.
No. Fanfiction should uphold certain ethical and respectful standards. Anal fanfiction often involves inappropriate and vulgar content that goes against the positive and inclusive spirit of the Star Trek community which is generally about exploration, diversity, and positive values.
Geography in Star Trek 2009 fanfiction can be used to enhance the sense of exploration. Different regions on the planets in the fanfic can be home to diverse alien species. For instance, a frozen tundra area could be where a reclusive and technologically advanced race resides. The geographical layout of these areas can also affect the plot. If a planet has a large ocean that separates two warring factions, it could be a major obstacle or a key strategic point in the story.
Yes, they might. In fanfiction, the characters are often written with a love for the Star Trek universe. Since they are part of that world, it's quite possible that they would enjoy watching the series as it's a way to see their own world from an outside perspective, and also to relive adventures similar to their own. It can also be a source of inspiration for them in the fanfiction stories.
It influenced the franchise by showing the producers what the fans were interested in. If a particular character or plot in fanfiction was very popular, it could potentially inspire the show's creators. For example, if a fanfiction explored a certain alien race in a new and exciting way, it might lead to that race being introduced or further developed in the official series.
This statement can be taken in a few different ways. On one hand, it could simply be a fun, creative way of saying that the Star Trek brand or community is aware of the fanfiction. The fanfiction often explores new ideas, characters, and storylines within the Star Trek universe. So, in a sense, the larger Star Trek concept is 'watching' these new and different takes on its world. It also might imply that the fanfiction has an impact on how the Star Trek franchise is perceived or even potentially developed in the future.
They expand it by exploring 'what - if' scenarios related to the rules. For instance, if a rule was changed, how would it affect the relationships between different species. It can also introduce new cultures and species that are created based on the existing rules framework. For example, a fanfiction might create a species that has a unique interpretation of the Prime Directive, which then leads to new storylines.
Definitely not. Star Trek has always been about high - minded ideals like exploration, cooperation, and understanding different cultures. Fan works typically revolve around these themes, such as writing about new alien species the crew encounters or how they solve complex moral dilemmas. This type of vulgar fanfiction goes against what the Star Trek community values.
