I need to know, for science: Fanfic writers, what is a drabble?

Exactly 100 words. The limit is the challenge.

Around 100 words.

Anything less than 1000 words could be a drabble.

Drabble is just another term for one-shot.

Any fic can be a drabble.

A drabble is anything that can fit on a post-it note.

Non-writers also free to weigh in.

There is a correct answer here by the way. I am a drabble purist but I want to know what other people think about this beloved format.

Genuinely one of my very favorite pieces of art ever. It's a masterpiece of design, materials, and execution.

I never get tired of seeing it.

i actually never ever want AO3 to be censored bc nothing is more fun than reading the tags on a fic and going “huh. didn’t know there was a market for that.”

how do you do, fellow Creatives™

"Didn't know they were dating" is slowly but surely becoming one of my favorite tropes. What do you mean, these two characters who are soulmates haven't actually been in a long-term relationship like everyone thought? What do you mean they didn't know? Everyone knows!
