Every fandom has this, hiding in a little niche somewhere. Usually it's even more obscure than little loved canon or subcanon pairings, with the notable exception of "Marth/Manasa" [AKA, "Marnasa"] in the Legend of Zelda/Fire Emblem crossover fannovels by CallistoHime on DeviantART. This seems to be a sometimes touchy subject, though, depending on how flexible the fans are and how many of them are completely diehard. So, be polite, but here are some discussion ideas:

* What's your general opinion on this type of pairing? (Are you leery of self-inserts or mary-sues? Would you even give those types of stories a chance if they mention it?)
* Do you like any CanonOC pairings (that are not your own) in or outside of the Sailor Moon fandom? Why? Why not?
* Do you have any CanonOC pairings of your own (in or outside of this fandom)? How would you describe them? What makes them captivating to you?

Plus anything additional you might want to suggest to it (which I could add in to the suggestions). I'll reply again with my own opinions soon.

At the risk of sounding idiotic, what is a Canon/OC paring? I've never heard that before.

Well, a Canon/Canon pairing is Mamoru/Usagi for example. Both characters originate from the main material. A Canon/Subcanon pairing, for example, would be like this: Kousagi/Helios (random/crack ship as well, but it's just an example). And finally, a Canon/OC is when you put a canon character with a fan made creation.

Ohhhh okay! Gotcha! Thank you!

No problem!

Once I read a little bit of a Tokyo Mew Mew fic where a person paired themselves with Deep Blue. I didn't like it so I stopped reading. Other than that I have never really read canonxOC. Must of them turn into self inserts so there's no point. However I am sure there are some well written.

Once I read a fic about Crystal Tokyo, and Sailor Mercury was working with this random fanmade female scientist that was in love with Endymion. It was interesting but awkward at the same time.

I think that's the only time I've read something of that nature.

If they're written well, I don't see why not.

For example, I'm all for (Harry Potter) Marauder Era OC's as long as the story is kept canon. If they can manage to work this person into the canon storyline that JK wrote, yay. <3

If that makes sense.

And yes I've made my own OC's before.

I don't mind Canon x OC couples or teaming as long as it doesn't change or disturb the original story. Some of these couples are sometimes made and the original Sailor Moon story doesn't make sense anymore since it's been too disturbed. But else than that, I've read some interesting stories here and there through the years.

Well, I don't have a lot of time to be online right now, but one of my favorite Canon x OC couples that I've made is in the R arc of Sailor Moon. Sapphire x Obsidian. While Sapphire is implied to have a bit of an infatuation with Emerald, I don't ignore that - I implement it into part of the conflict, which has been warped into an unhealthy shade from outside influence (AKA, Obsidian's other superiors). The pairing does require the arc to be slightly AU since she is also a senshi, but it is still perfectly recognizable.

i just realized reading this, i actually have a canonXoc. i made an AU where Princess Serenity and Prince Endymion don't die in the Silver Millennium and they marry. since the Moon has no other heirs, they stay on the Moon and Serenity becomes Neo Queen Serenity. on Earth, Endymion's brother Hyperion(the OC) takes over and becomes King of Earth. and he eventually meets Sailor Pluto and they fall in love...thus in the future, King Hyperion and Queen Setsuna rise up Garnet Tokyo together! mwahahaha.^^ so cracky. i even made a picture of Queen Setsuna.

That's really neat Crystal! I like your picture too.

Where's the link so I can read this story? I love sailor Pluto fics <3

well you'd have to start from the beginning to kinda get it...but it's on here!^^

i'mma add another chapter while i'm at it...XD

Your AU depiction of Pluto is very pretty, Crystal. ^^

thank you^^ i'm very proud of her crown.

I'm pretty fond of Canon/OC pairings. I got started in fandom over ten years ago now because I was looking for stories with OCs - I never really grew out of that, though I expanded my likes/dislikes enormously.

Good OC fics are pretty hard to find in SM. I only really want to read stories that involve the canon characters a great deal, and most writers don't want to write their OCs as main characters (because they only write things that deal with canon events and they don't want to insert an OC, or because their story is focused around the OC to a degree that the original cast gets cut). Except for the story by Heavenly Pearl about Ami romancing her professor, I have yet to find a really good Canon/OC fic in Sailor Moon.

A couple of non-romance fics that I liked were Dejana Talis' story with the blue Sailor Moon (Misconception? I think?) and the story of Sailor Astera.

I've liked reading stories in other fandoms where OCs influence the original story or characters, significantly or otherwise, when they're well written. I don't mind deviating from original canon events - though I prefer that these deviations be explicable (rather than inexplicable, XD).

For example: You start off a Marauders' Era Harry Potter fic where your character is a Gryffindor whose romantic interest will be Sirius Black. An inexplicable occurrence would be the author having moved Peter Pettigrew to Hufflepuff or Slytherin, and having him be a completely foul, smelly brat during the entirety of the story. An explicable deviation would be instead using the OC Gryffindor girl as a foil for Peter, or using her as a wedge between he and the rest of the Marauders. Then you can go and explain her as the reason he turned traitor, or have her as the reason they might discover him as a traitor in a future Happy Ending AU.

If that makes sense at all. XD

Generally speaking, I don't read or bother much with non-canon stories or pairings, depending on how I feel. There's also the issue on how well the author pulls it off. Most of the time, I don't bother. However, I have only loosened up to enjoying the children of these pairings (given if the original pairings are amicable break up or stay in character in a sense.). I steadfastly dislike character assassination of any of the originals without just cause or reason.

And I'm extremely leery of any pairing that isn't Haruka/Michiru in a fic because it disturbs me to see them parted in any way, more so than Mamoru/Usagi (but I don't ship them as fanatically.)

Think the ones I can deal with with ocs for mates would probably be the rest of the senshi barring Michiru/Haruka. I don't see why they can't have someone too.


But that's just the SM fandom, for most other fandoms I'm in, I don't care for it at all. I dislike that the OC is the reason for breakups, or someone going evil because of jealousy- that's actually annoying now considering there's a billion others like it. In general there, I try to stay away from it. (RPG wise is totally different because of the chemsitry between players and characters. It either works or it doesn't.)

That said- I make a ton of those. Some that aren't even uploaded anywhere. (like one world I had a pair of ocs engaged to each other but had intimate relationships with both Usagi/Mamoru because of some convoluted idea that the ocs are mirrors of those two. Some light/balance crap. <- never will see the light of day)

My most known Oc/Canon pairing is probably my Sailor DarkMoon (Elation) and Mamoru. They're not that typical of a pairing even if they do come to like each other. (and then I had that one world where it was Elation/Usagi/Mamoru but that's an entirely different story...)

Second most known, Darius who..gets Helios and Diana while I paired Chibiusa with an Oc as well as the Quartet. Then some team pairing with the originals and Shitennous (and PGSM influneces).


So ..yeah.. Well written and at least keeping in character somewhat, is usually my recs for fics (oh and interesting I like out of the ordinary things and as Miss Tricks said, Misconception is a good one.).

Edit: Oh wow, I completely forgot some.

I had Prince Endymion x Three OC women during the past and he has sons with each of them that end up being raised in his care because their mothers were mysteriously missing/killed. In that world, Endymion's a little older and these are all trysts he has with the women.

Oh, that was one thing I didn't say that I agree with Ktenshi about. I really really dislike breaking canon couples up just for the sake of your OC... if you're going to do that, and have the romance be a 'forever' deal, you'd better have an excellent reason.

This applies to canon pairings too... like, Lily/Snape MIGHT be fine... if you start the romance before she starts going out with James or something. Then it's a no-go. (Unless you go into the OT3 route, which is an entirely different kettle of fish...)

But, yeah, Michiru/Haruka break ups are just a no-go for me. Same with Usagi/Mamoru (unless there's brainwashing involved... again). Or their partner is dead.

Pretty much, though I find Snape/Lily far more easier to swallow, especially since they're childhood friends and James -was- a complete Jerkwad. I'm still trying to figure out how he became a 'good guy' later. Either he did it for Lily or actually developed some real moral compass. (Not that I ship Snape/Lily but James was just so unpleasant...)

but yeah, that bit always gets me with the whole thing.

Hooray for Puu! I can finally get a professional opinion on matters like this. Yay!
Ahem well to respond:

* What's your general opinion on this type of pairing? (Are you leery of self-inserts or mary-sues? Would you even give those types of stories a chance if they mention it?)
I used to be very leery, I’d try to put critic for such fics…nowadays I simply shake my head. And though there might be some nice self inserts they usually go like:

*Haruka/Michiru Derailment: Ugh! Haruka/Michiru (Michiru in most cases is the victim) has turned into a self-egocentric, manipulative girl and mistreat the other. To further up even more, they often do physical harm to another. Then, a dashing dude(ahem STU) comes from nowhere and gasp! Puts Michiru/Haruka on the right track. The other’s motives? Just to keep an image to society, to keep an image to the fans, simple using the cute/Manly factor of the other. They separate them and Michiru in most cases ends up having child prodigies.

*A New girl has been chosen as a Senshi but the generic doomsday villain is after her. The girls may be skeptic at first or amiable even, but when they meet her she’s a complete Mean, loud mouthed girl or a silent one even further than Hotaru, we find that the girl has a horrible past and the Senshi decide to help her. To spice things up, she defeats enemies which make Eternal Sailor Senshi bite the dust without even waving a finger. Yep, reaaal nice.

*Ä knight from the future, usually lower rank, goes from the future and accidentally or intentionally travels into the past. Said Knight always harbored feelings for the lovely queen and upon seeing her in the past, he can’t help himself. He becomes her…boy and Mamoru? See ya. Then Sailor Moon is rewritten with said knight as the Tuxedo, in some cases the girls have catfights for him…sigh…such a lucky dude.

*Usagi is sent into an alternate reality, mostly where there are handsome men and she’s trapped there FOREVER. She falls for the first male that comes her way and tries to make her new lie…I mean life decent along the random dude.


*A distant relative of Usagi is chosen as a Senshi and, to top it all off, it turns out she should’ve saved the day, she’s sent into time, BREAKS Usagi and Mamoru and starts her own Sailor team.


Now, don’t give me the evil eye, I’ve read some good self-inserts but, most are no brained, cliché or senseless plots. What’s worse, breaking a one true pairing for selfish reasons isn’t just…acceptable. Doing so would affect the continuity and even stability of time, E.G. no Chibiusa.


* Do you like any CanonOC pairings (that are not your own) in or outside of the Sailor Moon fandom? Why? Why not?

Sure, in the Yugioh fanon there are some decent ones, also in the meta anime there are a few. But they are rare and can only be pulled off by experienced authors.

* Do you have any CanonOC pairings of your own (in or outside of this fandom)? How would you describe them? What makes them captivating to you?

I have 2 characters here. 1 Knight and 1 Villian, I just took the appearances(Since even a 4 year old draws better than me), everything else, Personality, story, traits, skills I did them, So you could say they’re OC’s. that's why.

In what’s personal I tried to make them the least non stuish possible since, they come from another dimension, although I haven’t decided, here’s the appeal:

Him With Rei, it'd be a constant Clash as both have strong personalities and a love triangle would be formed along with Yuuichiroh. Fights would ensue, as both are tempered although he’s mucho more reasonable than her, despite this, they develop their trust as he decides to stay at the shrine to perfect his meditation skills for his martial arts. Things get tough with the invasion of aliens and the shrine is getting into financial problems; for the sake of Rei, He'd have to save the Hikawa Shrine by entering a martial arts tournament hosted in Hong-kong and even face Rei's dad and Kaidoh from the manga as, they don’t care about the shrine and want to take Rei away from the group. Eventually to defeat the ultimate enemy he decides to leave everything behind, much to Rei's sadness he decides to go for his own way to kill the timebreakers however, Rei is left saddened and he tries to forget her; neither succeeds, their appeal? The fact that he puts up with her temper and tries to get to her softer side via hard work and, how she chastises him while flirting at him makes a constant change in the relationship not comparable to love and hate.


Him With Minako: it'd be sweet as he falls in love at first sight with Sailor Venus but, as he doesn't know what it is he thinks he's sick. Although Minako distrusts him, as she thinks he’s a youma, hilarity ensues as she assumes her Sailor V persona once again to investigate the new enemy and not give out her powers as Sailor Venus also, to spy on him, both are played for laughs most of the times though. She comes to trust him, as no matter who he faces he stands up for what is right. Constantly they'd be fighting the bad guys side by side to the point where he begins to doubt if he really loves Sailor Venus and his love is really Minako. Another point to note is that she swoons over any handsome guy, thus this makes him feel unsure of himself and prior to fighting the Timebreakers he’s decided to leave her for a happy life and go away to seek revenge. Their appeal? Their silliness and mutual trust. They have their super tender moments and even, share an energy attack together.


Him With Setsuna: she appears quite lonely, distant, but kind and gentle in contrast to his somewhat goofy, cheerful and snarky attitude. We can also add from the musicals, she's quite playful, often making him blush. It would be a mature like love. He would be intimidated by her mature charm. Initially they meet in college, as he came from Tosa to study and he’s smitten by her. They would get along, as he accompanies her to shopping, drinking green tea ect. Setsuna teaches him about Fashion as he knows nothing about it and we could see the more feminine side of her. As Sailor Pluto she’s would try to stop him…to no avail. The enemy faction, the Timebreakers seem dangerous and he constantly puts his hide in danger for both Pluto and Setsuna, earning him a much stern nag from both. Despite this, he makes her loneliness fade, if, for a bit with his antics and make he happy. The enemy leader, Miira would throw his soul to hell and it's up to her to rescue him. Setsuna understands that they are alike, he’s lonely but unlike him, she hasn't lost hope and would try to reach out to him. Beat tells her she doesn’t have to bear a big responsibility and vows to protect her and that she is not alone. He for his part can’t believe he’s good enough for her that’s why she takes the lead; they reach a point in which they melt just by looking into each other’s eyes and begin to long for each other.


With Hotaru, if such a thing is possible as she's too young, it would be a protective and Beat would be protective of her, Hotaru would think he's too good for her as she's sickly, but because he treats her with respect he even encourages her to overcome it and she deems him as the first friend that's not a senshi. They fill each other's flaws; Hotaru is his brains, while he is her muscle. As Sailor Saturn, she would be overprotective of him reversing the role and try to protect him. Professor Tomoe feels happy to see Hotaru smile with someone.

Now for some opinions:

-Mary-sues aren’t cool for one reasons they ruin the story, don’t let their charms fool you. Why would you like a character whose flaws actually make her even more detestable? They ruin the suspense, in the end she’s gonna win so why bother?

-The sues/Stus are usually self-insertion and have little to no flaws. The people who do that, don’t know how much they miss, it’s easier to love a human character than a perfect or sueish one

-Mary-sues usually use a “Hijacked by me” story, ergo, the cast disappears and the fic centers SOLELY around her, she’s just that good…or so she thinks.

-I don’t particularly defend to death Usagi and Mamoru, I like them a lot but not to an extreme but, they ARE a couple, it’s cannon, It’s word of Naoko, the same for Haruka and Michiru, no matter what you do you can’t change that. Why? Because a fanfic is a work from ANOTHER PERSON’S IDEAS, doing that is like going to a person’s house and saying, wow your house is horrible! Let’s paint it like I say.


-Unlike popular beliefs Mary sues are actually one dimensional characters, they have no interaction with no one, they do as they please and have no ultimate goal rather than their own happy ending, so it may be likeable but it’s rather hard to bring a story with one in it.

Thanks for the topic Ms. Puu. I’d like your thoughts.

Ah, this topic. I have to admit that I'm guilty of a handful of self insert attempts, all of which have fallen to the wayside, simply because I had not the idea where I wanted the story to go.

Only one of them involved Sailor Moon, when I was embarking on the rediscovery of this piece of my childhood I have so adamantly attempted to erase from my memory (I was ashamed for years for even the thought of liking it), it was a way to "write out" the excitement that was building up inside me.

Then three attempts at rewriting, each toning down the OC. An interesting note, is that I wanted him to have a liking on Usagi, even turn her head a little, just a little, but eventually go to the wayside and let her end up with Mamoru.

Then I got stuck at trying to have a magic system that wasn't terrible, and haven't done anything else with it ever since.

Canon x OC can be really good sometimes, as long as the story make sense, that there is a backstory, and it can be coherent with canon. Hard to make with Sailor Moon, but not impossible. I once read a really good fic about Mako getting infatuated with a guy she met at Crown, and it was completely written under the said boyfriend's perspective (including moment where Mako disapeared right when weird monsters appeared, etc). Really nice, I wish I could find it again.
And then, there is senseless crap like that:

Spoiler:

Really, this guy's deviantart account is a goldmine. Overlooking the fact that Rei is actually not a boycrazy person at all (even in the anime where she is kinda more rabbid), this guy gave his OC no backstory whatsoever. That's an exemple of things you shouldn't do.

I don't read many fics or pairings in general, but my rule for it would be same as most things. If it's well written and grabs my attention, I'll give it a chance. I can imagine it'd be much easier to do something with the other Inner Sols rather than Moon or Uranus/Neptune but if you really wanted to have a guy go out with Usagi you can just put it in the timeline where Mamoru broke up with her during R. Have Minako play matchmaker. It'd be doomed to fail, but there's a lot you can do with that scenario. An awkward date where Usagi is still hung up over Mamoru, the hilarity of Minako playing matchmaker, Mamoru seeing them together. Lots of stuff. But, for it to work you have to lose the Mary Sue/self-insert bit and make them an actual original character. Give them their own back story, personality, etc. Otherwise I don't see it working.

In summary: you want to put an OC with a canon that's fine with me. Just have it make sense and no Mary Sues. Mary Sues are a no-no in any situation.

Oh, wow. I had forgotten about this thread. ^_^"

Nice to see it getting some life, though. To add some more ideas to the thread: What is your favorite CanonOC pairing that you've read?

EDIT: I also should probably clarify. My original set of questions wasn't just about self-inserts or Mary Sues, as the majority of us all share the same opinion, XD. It was also meant to include the scope of all depictions of the OCs.

Quote :

What is your favorite CanonOC pairing that you've read?

Damn.

This turned into more of a diatribe on GOOD romances that I've read. SORRY.

I've actually read a lot of Canon/OC in a ton of fandoms. But the only one I recall in SM fanfiction is an OC/Ami romance - after the girls have started pursuing their dreams, Ami goes to Tokyo U, where she begins a friendly relationship with one of her professors. It was an adorable little romance with some amount of drama and legal intrigue when another student, upon discovering that Ami and the Professor knew each other out of class, accused Miss Mizuno of cheating and the Professor of favoritism.

It was set in a manga-only verse (which the author is very fond of) and had chapters involving the other girls to a degree. By the end of the story, it's very easy to see the future that Ami and her love interest could have together, with or without Crystal Tokyo. The characters were very well balanced, the story seemed very grounded, and it was all well within the bounds of canon.

The same author also wrote a version of Rei's father (as an OC, much of the story was written before PGSM came out - she was amusingly accurate in her portrayal of him) - and she does very well in telling his story, and illustrating the romances in his life (mostly OC/OC), and even has a story out there were he marries Ami's mother. I've never been sure whether that was OC/OC or Canon/Canon.

Outside of Sailor Moon... I've read more. In the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fandom there was an OC/Chrysalis fic... that was fairly to very good up until the last few chapters. The OC was a scavenging woodsmen pony who Chrysalis fell in with after being forced out of Canterlot. Decent story, great OC. This particular author was exceptional when it came to balancing her characters and staying true to her own portrayals of them - up to the point of tragedy. D:

There's an old Harry Potter Charlie Weasley/OC fic I've been following called The Family Clock. The author started it as a self-challenge to create an OC without creating a Sue - and I'm not sure whether she's succeeded or not. The lead character is a young woman who runs a magical clock shop in Diagon Alley - the same shop that maintains the Weasley family clock. The character is extremely quirky, uptight, and maintains Victorian attitudes, dress, and standards of behavior and speech, while being an exceptionally gifted artisan and merchant. The romance is cute and well thought out and executed, but the story (despite the listed genre) is not a straight up take-no-prisoners romance - half the story becomes a world-building exercise that explores the Alley, the mercantile side of the Wizarding world, the politics and economics and history of the Alley and how every element comes together at just the right place and time to mold the OC from being an ordinary shop keeper to being a leader of the lower classes in the Alley during the upcoming war with Voldemort.

In the Naruto fandom, there's an author named Rin O' Gen, who's started several fantastic OC/Kakashi fics... with the same OC. She has an exceptional grasp of characterization, and is humorous and consistent with her plots, characters, and the quality of her writing. (Unfortunately, she hasn't finished any of these fics.) The OC in question is a self-insert who, in one version of the story 'falls into Konoha.' And then adopts little Naruto, and is adopted by Gai in turn for being an extremely persistent civilian who insists on exercising every morning, which is a cute little storyline. The other version of this same story is one where Kakashi falls into real Earth, and finds a young woman with a bunch of Naruto manga and flips out. They're both the exact same characters in completely different, hilarious, circumstances - made even better by not falling into the fan-service traps that most 'characters from X fall into the 'real world'' fall into.

A fandom that is literally built on OC/Canon pairings is the Elder Scrolls fandom. Oblivion spawned an incredible number of romances - some very, very good, like the universe built by Raven Studios. Raven Studios went and created protagonists for each of the major questlines in Oblivion, each with their own solid characterization and independent personality, and wove their stories loosely together into a trilogy. The Main Quest story stars a girl whose brothers have taken over the Fighter's Guild (necessitating that that particular questline had been undertaken by them years before the story begins) who accidentally gets herself thrown into prison. The following story is a romance between Martin/OC as she goes out and gets into trouble in his name as a Blade, and he looks for the way to shut the Oblivion gates. Post-questline, she becomes the hero of the Knights of the Nine. The second story woven into the first is of the Dark Brotherhood questline, which seems to have an obvious ending until it doesn't - the story is a suspenseful mystery starring an ex-Mages Guild associate from Anvil, complete with a creepy romance with Lucien Lachance. (For the record, this Lucien seems much more sympathetic and less evil than canon Lucien.) The third story is OC/OC, starring a washed out, boring librarian figure-woman as she investigates the Shivering Isles on behalf of her Lord, Hermaeus Mora.

If you can't tell, I'm outright recommending these.

The Dark Brotherhood questline boasts a truly unlikely number of romances - mostly Lucien Lachance creepfests. There are one or two really good ones, so, if anyone wants a rec, lemme know. There's even a decent slash Lucien/OC fic! Which is justifiably listed as a dark comedy, even, which is a hard line to balance with anything, much less with a well rounded, bumbling male POV OC.

And this is where I derail myself again.

I can and have read almost any pairing. The thing about asking, "What's your favorite OC pairing?" is that the answer depends on the OC and the writing. A decent writer can sell me on anything. The Elder Scrolls fandom is a brilliant example, because literally every story in that fandom is centered on an OC built from scratch by the author - and it doesn't matter a whit, if the writing's good enough to pass muster. I've been sold on het, slash, tragedy, comedy, straight up schmoopy harlequin, whatever - if the characters are well balanced, if the author can write a romance in the least, I can read it.

WITH ALL THAT SAID.

I quit for the moment, because I can go on FOREVER.

----

I'm curious about the other side of things. Writers, what sort of OC x Canon pairing do you want to write?

Quite the post! Thank you, Miss Tricks. ^^

It is good to see that there are some who aren't gun-shy, though, be it reading or writing on this side. I myself haven't written many CanonOC - save for a long-running RP that went with a fannovel world of mine; which is now being converted to an original-verse (long explanation; though only four characters have the same function as the canon ones - most of my cast was OCs) - but now that I've come to Opaque, I'm very tentatively experimenting on a different level. Relationships that explore social mores for better or worse interest me, and digging into the psychology of a character used as a weapon, who believes her redeeming qualities are far and few in between, and seeing how it relates to a gentler canon character is most intriguing. It is just the context of the background that is a trigger-topic.

Opaque Note:

Hmm well done ones I like?

I would have to say the one that Janelle did (the popular old Neo Sailor Moon/Zodiacs). She had an Oc paired up with older Chibiusa and it made it rather believable and lovely really. I liked all the characters in the story there.

Not a real Oc/Canon character more of a OC/OC and OC/Canon in a way. Which was a Sailor Dark Moon with the first black Sailor senshi I ever seen, Shaquila. And Jadeite was her enemy/she was being pursued by him.

Sure it was slightly "eh' but it has a nostalgic place in my heart.


I make a lot of stories featuring my ocs. (I'm a hypocrite a bit. I won't read an OcxCanon story unless it's REALLY highly recommended. ) I don't mind writing it and I mostly don't expect people to like them much because the characters are what I would've liked to have seen in fanfiction anyway. (There haven't been a lot of black sailor senshi focus. So I made one.). Or rather in fiction period. So.. I don't know..

When people like my Ocs, it's pretty cool. ^^;
