Dames are Trouble was the one that came to mind purely because even if I didn’t know you, which means I would likely not know about Veld or BC or of Lucrecia outside my initial impressions, I would have likely checked it out purely because of the title, I’m shallow I know. I would have most likely enjoyed it even without all the information and while I probably wouldn’t go trying to figure out who Veld is I would have likely checked out some of your other stuff more for Lu than Veld.
I can see the Lu/Iffy stuff not being as popular because of the slash (even if it was mostly subtext but if you’re seeing it as Lu/Iffy and you don’t know the author I’ve learned you usual assume the worse because there’s a lot you can do with a G rating but then I think I’ve regressed from wanting to read romance to just cuteness as while reading Night Watch I fan girl whenever Vimes mentions Sybil), Lucrecia herself has a worse rep than even Cloud in the fandom and unless you watch the Icicle Inn tapes all you see of Iffy is her dying (which I didn’t my first few times playing through) so it’s unlikely for someone to have much interest in her it’s like the whole mother thing people usual don’t write about mom’s outside of them being mom’s so I’m not sure the majority of the fandom can relate to that kind of character. Mom’s are mom’s so you don’t realize they have back stories it’s like how kids don’t think their teachers have lives. I adore Iffy now but I hadn’t thought much about her before you started writing Veld and reading over the BC scripts where Aeris mentions recognizing something about Elfe or some such she wouldn’t have clicked with me.
Sailor Moon has a huge section of the pit so it can’t purely be because of the lacking of hot guys, also it’s my understanding Poison Ivy/Harley Quinn is rather popular. It’s more likely the people who are interested don’t know they would be if that makes any sense.
Though, how there isn’t an enormous onslaught of Elena fiction completely and utter mystifies me. She is a brash, aggressive, nearly innocent but not quite young lady surrounding by attractive men who is in love with an old darker man who is in a position of authority over her, goodness graces that’s like the building blocks for almost all female fantasy heroines out there all she needs is a mentor and a pet/strange ability. At least, I don’t think there are but I don’t actually like reading about villains unless there are good guys involved so I’m not so much in the Turk fandom.

Sorry that ended up being so long.
