And Pinecone as Beatrice.

>What is Divine Comedy
>What is My Diary

Paradise Lost is highly original, though.

What does that have to do with fanfiction status?

Fanfiction is inherently unoriginal.

No, the Koran is.

>>7578025
fanfiction is a supremely stupid concept only made possible by burgeoning late 20th century media franchises for children, and thus cannot be applied to the Aeneid
