Line 12:
In [[Fanfic]], angst is often used as an umbrella term for any kind of [[Dark Fic]]. Like all fanfic, it adheres very strongly to [[Sturgeon's Law]]. For every brilliant execution there are ninety six examples that fall flat on their face, and another three that are merely mediocre.
 
Compare [[Wangst]], where the reader or viewer comes to hate the angsty character for being too "whiny" or "wanky", and [[Angst? What Angst?]], where a situation that might be expected to leave a character grieving or upset leaves no impression on them whatsoever. See also [[Deus Angst Machina]] and [[True Art Is Angsty]]. For the feelings that angst is generally meant to invoke, see [[Emotional Torque]].
