Fluff

Fluff usually refers to a short piece of fanfiction whose sole purpose for existence is to make the reader go "Awwww! That's so sweet!" at regular intervals and/or at the end. Often they involve light romance, but not gratuitous sex, and may well focus on simple, everyday expressions of love.
Fluffy fics usually lack conflict and tend to be quite light-hearted; however, the sweetness can be overdone at times, and they can become lacking in real characterization.
Fluff fics are always Oneshots.
