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

Sepia flashbacks!

They have treatments for that these days.

Yes, I did write for Yuletide the year before last, so I'm okay to play again. Now I just have to decide whether I have time....

I believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers

I'm rubbing my hands with glee at the prospect of requesting stories I want! Yay for fandom presents.

Also, I popped in to ask a favour. I need one more beta reader to machete a short Firefly fic. If anyone is interested, can you email me at thenorthland at gmail dot com? Thanks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

People discovering fic and slash is such a trainwreck.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Except for the part where it seems like TWoP invented HoYay I'm fine with it. Sure, they invented the term, but the concept pretty much goes back to the Iliad and even in modern TV land it at least goes back to Star Trek/1979 or so.

...where to start? Star Trek aired from 1966-69, thanks. And the concept of homosexuality goes back before the Iliad, I'm pretty sure.

Dude. Achilles and Patroclus were so totally doing it.

No, really.

So were Gilgamesh and Enkidu.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It tickles me to imagine that a Paul Rudnick play may one day hence be considered a sincere work that attempted to portray actual contemporary beliefs about history.

If I only had a brain...

So, what set off the Great Penguin Craze in SG-1, anyway?
