Community Profile

Welcome to h50_gen - a Gen only Community for fanworks of the TV-Show "Hawaii 5-0".

Definition of Gen

For the purposes of this Community the definition of Gen is as following:

Gen stands for General, and related to fanfiction, fanvids, fanart, fanmixes, icons and podfics that focuses on the 'general' aspects of a fandom. This excludes fanworks focusing on relationships either of a romantic/het/slash nature. It includes hurt/comfort, episodes tags, AUs, casefic, etc as long as the fanworks meet the first requirement.

So, no focus on romantic and/or sexual relationships. Also, please no pre-slash/het. Canon pairings are okay as long as they are not the focus of the fic/video/art/icon/fanmix/podfic.

Here are some examples what's okay and what not.

Letting Steve wake up with Catherine at the beginning of a story or let him be called away from a date? Okay. Telling us what they've been up to in the night or what will happen after the date if it involves sex? Not okay.

Letting Danny remember a lazy Sunday afternoon in bed with Rachel when everything was still all right? Okay, as long as it is not the focus of the fic. Showing us what they've been up to? Not okay.

Creating a video/art/icon/fanmix/podfic about Kono and Danny and their working relationship or friendship? Okay. Creating a ship video/art/icon/fanmix/podfic about them? Not okay.

When in doubt, please ask a Mod in the „Page a Mod“ post (comments are screened).
