A phrase used in many forums to describe a story idea of almost any kind. Any takers? SemperBlotto 07:24, 29 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Seems to be under some use, with many relevant Google hits. Davilla 23:27, 1 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

It is certainly used in the sense described. I will add one quote, but it needs cleaning up. Got a plot bunny hopping around in your brain but stuck at a crucial part? ...

From RFC[edit]

Hey, I took a shot at cleaning it up, if anyone wants to check up on my work. (I'm new.) I know that the print quotations are preferred, but couldn't get Google Books to admit that it has appeared in print. That doesn't surprise me; it's a term that originated in fanfic, which doesn't have much of a print presence. I'm hoping that a webzine with publication dates, issue numbers, and non-anonymous authorship is official enough for Wiktionary's purposes. Sanguinity 21:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
