chibi_trillianY'know, I half-feel like I'm betraying my fandom because I've written way more One Piece stuff than I have Bleach stuff.
I don't know why. I think it's easier to write for One Piece because it's a bit more loosely wrapped, for lack of a better term. Bleach's storyline is so tightly put together that there's not really room for fanfiction to be edged in properly. I hate having fanfic happen in a nebulous "sometime," especially when that nebulous "sometime" didn't really occur in canon. One Piece, on the other hand, has lots more wiggle room--travel time, random island visits, things like that. Fanfiction actually has somewhere to go. Well, that, and it's nice that the entire main cast of One Piece is over the age of consent (at least in my state--yes, in Maryland, Luffy is legal) whereas the main cast of Bleach is rather profoundly not.
In other words: Bleach, baby, I still love you, but I want to go to Utah so I can be married to One Piece too.
