Did you ever wonder why some fanfics start with a disclaimer stating how they don't own any of the characters and storylines they're writing about? Well, if you don't know, consider yourself lucky to have not lived through some of the darkest days of fanfic history. And sit down for a tale of terror and read some fic that was once considered forbidden fruit.
