Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

That remix is brilliant! I love fandom.

And Slow Show owns my whole goddamn heart.

In the end it's only ever been one step, and then the next.

Thank you, Kate, my breakfast did not work (baking powder is an important ingredient, kids, don't leave it out) and now I am grinning all over my face.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

"Slow Show" lives in my head, rent free. I actually resented "The Witcher" when we started watching that last year, because it wasn't "Warlock". It's just. So good.

Do fan film links go here? Because this article does a not-terrible job of talking about fic, especially in the context of responses to R*wling.

Remember how cracktastic SGA fic got? Well, MCU fic may be moving that way. [link] Delightfully so. I can hope this is the start of a trend.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

DH independently decided to watch Stargate Atlantis. I have seen bits and pieces while he's watching, which made me realize that the show in my brain is much more informed by the fandom and the fic than what actually aired. That was a good fandom. I may have to revisit some.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Star gate Atlantis is one of my weird fandoms where I read the fic, but have only watched one or two episodes.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

That is a solid life choice. It's a wildly uneven show.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Bah. I read a relatively-new SG-1/SGA crossover that was recced on a DW comm this week, and ... yikes. It read like something from the mid-1990s. All the male characters were gay, and none of the female characters had any lines at all. Oh, and Elizabeth Weir was a traitor. And Sam Carter was nowhere to be seen.

And yet the story was written in 2019.

I do not miss the misogyny of classic slash fandoms.

Thrive to spite them

I thought I had commented on this...

I keep seeing that in 911 with Ana, since she's the love interest for Eddie and the show hasn't made Eddie/Buck canon. I've seen where people make her a stalker or turning threatening or something

And Ao3 is limiting tags. It's interesting to read the comments and people who are glad vs the people who think 75 is too few and they need more.
