Is it ok if I say something like this?:

"The girl, whom I was suspecting was his girlfriend, gave him a quick hug from behind, then went back to work at her desk."

I'm pretty sure you can have innocent hugs, though, but leave out the girlfriend stuff.

If they were friend hugs than yeah.

As explained by everyone else, and hinted at by smartgirl, I would drop the reference to the relationship and allow the hug itself, eatmorechicken.

Is it okay to mention a war in a fan-fic? Like... The Civil War?

^ I've seen lots of fics that have mentioned or been about wars, so as long as you don't go into too much detail I assume it would be okay.

I know romance isn't allowed, but what about a boy being really protective of a girl? Like, he's just going to say "Watch your step", "Be careful," and stuff like "No it'll be too dangerous" I'm not going to add any blushing, but maybe a litte bit of smiling. They're not going to kiss or anything like that, i'm staying VERY clear of that idea. Would that be okay? I understand if it isn't, but I would like an answer. :3

I don't think that would count as romance, but I'd wait to get a second opinion before going forward with your idea.

Since he's just acting as a pompous protection dog, I don't see how that would be against the rules. Just make it clear that they're just friends.

Okay, thanks :3 I'll wait for a mod/scout/admin to answer this first, though. x3

Boys and girls can be totally platonic friends, RainbowSugaBabe. Just because many people don't believe it doesn't make it so. If you write your story clearly there should be no question that there isn't any romance involved. I'd say you are good to go with your idea. But if you want to wait for a current "badge" to sign off on your idea, I wouldn't begrudge you that.

Okay! Thank you Mamanator! :3

Is my story title allowed to have these?:

|

Hello again.

I have a little..I don't know violent/blood/gore part and was wondering if this would be allowed?:

"She suddenly fell back on the hard, edge of her desk, then landed on the floor. Her forehead was covered in dark red blood, and her face became pale and cold. Was she....Dead?"

Thank you!

I believe that is allowed, AlwaysSmiley. Use of special characters to make titles noticeable is not allowed, but if you're just using it to space things out and don't go overboard, I think you can. For example, this would be allowed:

Spring Blossoms|Chapter 3 Posted!|Horror and Suspense!

I believe this would NOT be allowed:

~*~*~*~*^^^^Gracies life! She wasn't always fab!~*~&~~*~&^^^^

Get it? :3

I get it now. Thank you. =D

Would it be okay to have a fan-fic where somebody gets sued and then gets in court? Or should I stay out of the topic?

I'm pretty sure court scenes have been done before and were perfectly fine, so it should be okay, but you might want to check with someone more experienced.

It depends on what the person is being sued for. If it's like, a robbery or the constant torment of another character, go ahead. I believe murders are also allowed, if you are VAGUE about it.

If it's something like...well, something that's obviously adult, don't even try it.

Thanks, because I was thinking about doing a fan-fic somewhere along the lines of getting sued for Robbery/Counterfeit item selling.

The theme you are considering, Luna, should not come back to haunt you. Just remember to keep things on topic of ACC relation and, if something went horribly wrong (loss of life) during the robbery, to not have them go into detailed account.

I agree with Mamanator, although so no one gets upset, I wouldn't include deaths if you were thinking about them. If you desperatly need to, I wouldn't go into detail although then it could be hard to make it sound intresting.

imo, Deaths are completely fine. I've had people tore to pieces with shrapnel, shot, stabbed and tortured - the thing is - you need to give your reader the impression of what's happened without going into graphic detail. :3

Would I be allowed to say that one character has a crush on another character, as long as the other character doesn't like the first charater back??

ffyddie, I'm not too sure. It might count as Online Romance, so I would stay away from that idea.
