    Actually the concept changed a lot over time. A few centuries ago it was perfectly acceptable to take someone's story and characters and retell it in your own way, but copying someone's style was frowned upon.

      I would consider that fanfiction in modern parlence and I see it as distinct from plagiarism and piracy as well. And morally okay, good even.
