NC-17
This warning applies to stories of any and every kind. If you
are under 18, or reading sexually explicit material is illegal or
distasteful to you then stay away from these steamy stories! These
could also contain material that is simply not suitable for those
young or young of heart. Topics might include extreme violence and
unwanted sexual encounters.
R
Beware, there are things in these stories that young-uns should not stumble across. It's just like the movie ratings. There is more blood, sex, and maybe even some foul language to be found inside. If you shouldn't read these, then be warned!
Classic
These stories stick to usual Xena story lines with ambiguous subtext (if any at all), non-commital relationship between Xena and Ares, and other aspects you'd expect to see in an actual on-air episode. No explicit sex (unless specified NC-17)
Alternative (Alt) or Subtext
FF stories for all the Subbers out there, here are the stories that gave us what Ren Pics wouldn't! Here Gabby and Xena are lovers, though not every story is explicit.
Shipper
"Shipper" usually refers simply to people who share the idea of a romantic relationship b/t two characters. On this site, and many others, I'll use it soley to denote fan fic with Ares and Xena as lovers. Share the passion between Ares and Xena that was only glazed over during the 6 seasons.
Uber
Do you believe in reincarnation? These bards do! Uber stories follow the reincarnations of many Xena characters throughout time and their interactions with each other.
Post FIN
Stories that take place after the famous season finale, A Friend in Need.
Slash
MM stories involving relationships between various male characters in XWP and HTLJ. Not every story contains explicit sex. Those that do are marked as NC-17.
Hercules
Stories about the HTLJ characters.
Alternate Universe (AU)
Same characters, but with a different slant. Perhaps a certain key event didn't happen exactly as it did in the series, or this is this author's interpretation of how things should have gone.
Poetry
That one's pretty self-evident. ^_^
