After reading Nan's post, I find myself wanting a definition of a deathfic so that I don't post one without a warning (assuming I ever write one). Here is a possible list to choose from.
1. A story where Lois and/or Clark die,
2. A story where any of the main characters die (ie, Lois, Clark, Martha, Jonathon, Perry, Jimmy)
3. A story where a recurring character dies (ie, Mayson, Dan, Ralph, Cat, Jack, etc)
4. A story where one of the goodguys die.
5. A story where anyone, including the bad guys, dies.
6. A story that focuses on death or uses the death as the focal point of the story.
I would have thought only number 1 would make a Lois and Clark story a death fic, but lately I've begun to question that hypothosis. Could someone please enlighten me?
