Why the heck are there so many fandom stories about fantasy world characters attending ordinary high schools? The Zanarkand High theme is practically a genre.
Oh, wait, that's because a lot of fanfic writers are probably high school students.
It's still strange. I mean, for FFVIII it makes sense, in a way, but... for things like FFX and FFVII it hurts my head.
I suppose somewhere out there on the net there's probably a BORG COLLECTIVE high school, with Seven of Nine flirting with all the boys, or perhaps a Pirates of the Carribbean High with Sparrow picking on the class nerd Billy, or...
*shakes head to clear it*
On the other hand,
cupcakemonster wrote a gangsters Spira that I adore, even though I usually avoid that genre. So you just never know.

I read two sentences from those mentioned fics and I hit my back button immediately =3=
And I agree with saharasnow... there are a lot of dropping into spira stories or ones where the people were actually from spira but ended up in our world somehow only to come back to spira but without an explanation how they ended up in our world in the first place.
btw, I have a great story for you about the people teaching our kids english in this country. :D You'll love it.
But never in my right mind would I have posted it on the internet for all the world to see.
...Then again, if spurred on by enough stupid people doing the exact same thing as myself and getting glorified for it, I just might have. *shudders* I cringe at the thought.
Dont these people have any shame??
And did much fic and art ensue.
Oh, if I only realized what fanfic was back then. Thankfully I was only the muse XD
Else I'm sure someone would've been gouging their eyes out over my fic. :)
OK I'll go crawl back in my geek hole now.
My favorite was Puck/Data. XD
The reason I decided to write high school AU? To see how hard it was to do it correctly (FREAKING HARD) and to have an excuse to write Seifer as a bouncer in a male strip club. Oh. Zell and glitter. ZELL. GLITTER. That really should be the first reason I give. >D
