Red Rover wrote a lemon called "Through the Looking Glass" way in the past.
FFN has a Digimon fanfic called "Through the Looking Glass" which has been published in April 02.
Lewis Carroll published the book called "Through the Looking Glass" in 1871.
My point is that a whole bunch of fanfics and lemons have titles that have been used (and possibly copyrighted) before. Both in the "community" and in the outside world.
That's why I find it silly that we suddenly start nitpicking about which title was used where and when first. There are 30.000+ Digimon fanfics on the DaD and FFN alone, so it's going to be EXTREMELY hard to find a fitting title that hasn't been taken yet. If you also consider all the other fanfics of ALL other fandoms, AND all the book titles, movie titles, song titles, and other copyrighted labels and titles, you'll end up naming your work "Title_C1884622b" or so.
On-Topic discussion and comments on the story from here on would be appreciated. Thank you.

Quote:It would however be a nice common courtesy to avoid using the same title as someone else in the community's work since they have used it before you. It doesn't matter where/why you thought of using it as the end result remains the same. Furthermore, it doesn't matter in the slightest that his story under the title you want to use is a lemon or not. This is just a simple excuse you're trying to throw out there.Christ, this thread is about the fanfic, not about the title. But fine, SR. If you want to be like that, I've got three things for you:
