Most likely not. Although it may seem like it could be an in - depth exploration of a difficult topic, the nature of self - harm is so sensitive. There is a fine line between exploring it in a meaningful way and normalizing it. And in the context of fanfiction, which has a wide audience, it's very difficult to ensure that it won't cause harm, so it's not appropriate.
I'm not entirely sure as 'self - harm' is a very serious and disturbing topic. Fanfiction usually takes elements from an existing work. It might be exploring how a character in a particular fictional universe copes in a way that involves self - harm, but this is not a positive or healthy theme. It could also potentially be about the art of getting by in general, with self - harm just being an unfortunately misdirected or misinterpreted part of it.
Recovery is also a prevalent theme. It shows the journey from a state of self - harm to a more positive and healthy state. This can include steps like seeking help, whether it's from friends, family or professionals in the fanfiction world.
In such fanfiction, one way to deal with self - harm could be through the support of other characters. For example, a close friend in the story might notice the signs and offer a listening ear and words of comfort.
In general, fanfiction that involves self - harm can be a very tricky area. If it's handled in a way that is educational, for example, showing the negative impacts and the path towards recovery, it could have some merit. But if it's just for shock value or to glorify self - harm, then it's completely inappropriate.
No. It's not appropriate. The Avengers are symbols of strength and heroism. Self - harm is a negative and dangerous concept that doesn't fit well with the positive image of the Avengers. It can also be triggering for some readers who may have personal experiences with self - harm.
In Percy fanfiction, self - harm can be a complex element. It could be related to the overarching plot, for example, if Percy is under some sort of dark magic influence. It may also be a result of his relationships going sour. If he feels betrayed by his friends or is facing an impossible situation, self - harm could be a way the author shows his desperation. But this should always be a warning sign in the story that something needs to be resolved.
No. Self - harm is a serious and real - life issue, and creating fanfiction around it, even in the context of 'glee', is not acceptable. It can be triggering for those who have experienced self - harm or are struggling with mental health problems.
Yes, they are somewhat common. Fanfiction often delves into complex and dark themes, and self - harm is one of them. Writers may use it to add depth to a character's emotional state.
Well, it's not really appropriate. Aang is a character from a story that is often enjoyed by a wide range of audiences, including younger viewers. Self - harm is a very serious and sensitive topic. Fanfiction should be more about exploring the character in positive ways, like his growth, his relationships, rather than something as negative as self - harm.
