Common Tropes in Fanworks

• Pheromones: many fans were unhappy with the use of pheromones when Cindy was introduced, and how it made Peter and Cindy sexually attracted to each other, and unable to control themselves. Fans would sometimes ignore this completely in fanworks, or reworked it some how.
