In a KS-fanfiction it is usually a new student arriving at Yamaku and immediately making friends with absolutely everybody.
He is:
- a foreigner
- rich
- good at sports
- gets top grades in all subjects
- has Hanako ask him out on a date on the second day after they meet for the first time
- beats Emi in their first race
- vanquishes Shizune at risk
- immediately understands Rin and
- either has a disability that does not affect him at all or
- has been dealt the cruelst fate the author could think of and still heroically never complains and outperforms all his schoolmates.
Generally, I'd consider any fic where I can check two or more of the above a Mary Sue fic.
I should write one with all of the above traits just to piss off everyone.

And then everybody should remember the "no requesting" sticky. This IS still in the Fan Fiction section, you know.

Not really requesting. More of giving ideas, and making jokes.

I have a feeling that thread becomes invisible for some people considering the amount of times I've had to voice my suspicions about a post or post a link to it.

It's still classed as requesting, just written differently.

Just a suggestion Silentcook, If you think this should be a genuine archive, I suggest you sticky it. Because right now its a bit hard to find, in the middle of all the new fics and necros. just my 2 cents
