Well the most recent one I noticed was a girl wrote a song fic about InuYasha leaving Miroku behind to hurry home to Kagome, cause he couldn't stand to be separated from her.
I had just written 2 fics, one where InuYasha indeed wants to go home and not wait for Miroku after his first trip out of town with him after Kagome's experience in "Future Legend." And the second fic was his return, early in the morning.
The writer of the songfic is one of my regular readers. She created a little songfic where shortly after they were married, Inu's out with Miroku and is too ansty to wait for him and Miroku gives him his blessing for him to return home, and he finds Kagome collecting herbs in the field and they have a grand happy reunion moment.
She wrote this after reading my two pieces. They're different enough that I could consider them derivative in an acceptable way, modelled a bit after my scenario, but not crossing the line. Her reunion scene was way different, it was a songfic; and the idea is probably common enough, except that I knew she had read my stories. I was actually kind of pleased that she may have modelled on me, but kept it her own, and that maybe I'm starting to have a little effect on the post manga fanon. That would be kind of cool. I know my having InuYasha build a house while Kagome was gone has popped up in more than one post-manga fic.
You and me, we like the meta stuff, that's for sure.
