	Basically it's because the first people posting them called them Lemon

Fanficts and the name 

has become established.  As to why they did, it was probably a refference

to the Cream Lemon OAV 

series, one of the first Anime series of the Genre (And the series

responsible for Project A-ko)

My question is: what's a "lime" fanfic? I've seen that term used now 

sexual innuendo..
no graphic details

and then, and I've been wondering.

And are there orange, grapefruit, and tangerine fanfics? :)

don't forget passion fruit. or is it the fruit of passion? :)
personally i like the term lemon-scented better..
