OC focussed fics or pairings? (kbin.social)

Does anyone read fics that are centred around OCs at the expense of canon characters? Like a story about an OCxOC pairing where the canon characters are only on the side or background to the core pairing?

I'm trying to figure out if it's worth posting a story I have an idea for (that won't get out of my head & demands that I write it next).

Glad you have those in your fandom you can refer to. It gives me better comfort when dealing with unreasonable readers. Sadly "don't like, don't read" has been a lost art for awhile. I hope one day it will become trendy again.

Sometimes fandoms that used to be unfriendly to OCs will turn around because a couple of fanfic managed to become super popular. The English fandom of Naruto has a few well documented cases of this.
