I was bemoaning the lack of reading comprehension skills in fandom with tzikeh just the other day.
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.
Someone's already submitted Firefly!
I noticed that when I peeked in the thread earlier today. Do I dare check back in? Is there stupidity? Is there entertaining stupidity?
Someone already submitted "The Inside" as an obscure fandom, so the only reason I have to go to the thread would be for the sheer fun of it.
There's no back-and-forth, so really there's not much opportunity for entertaining stupidity. Several repeats of various kinds, though, either in-thread or stuff that was in the challenge last year.
ETA: Gummi Bears! Oh, God, someone must do a Gummi Bears/Care Bears crossover. Clearly.
I recently rewatched most of the first season of Gummi Bears. I could TOTALLY write Gummi Bears fic. Sadly, I am unfamiliar with the Care Bears.
However, Gummi Bears / The Inside strikes me as, seriously, the weirdest crossover imaginable. I may have to write it just in case. Can you imagine Mel on Gummy Beary Juice? Cuz i can't, but I WANT to.
She'd need a (lot of) cigarette(s)
You know, Gummi Bears is oddly ficcable.

!
In a way, I really hope you do write this.
Gummi Bears... that really brings back some memories.
Gummy Bears... high adventure that's beyond compare...
OMG, gayest theme song ever.
I threw a Gummi Bears themed event one time third term. It involved playing that song on repeat. So. Bad. I love it.
Dashing and daring, courageous and caring,
Faithful and friendly with stories to tell.
All through the forest they sing out in chorus
Marching along as their songs fill the air.
Gummi bears! Bouncing here and there and everywhere
High Adventure that's beyond compare
They are the gummi bears.
*too-de-tooo, toodly-too-TOOOO*
Magic and mystery are part of their history
Along with the secret of gummi beary juice.
The legend is growing, they take part in knowing
They fight for the right in whatever they do!
Gummi bears! Bouncing here and there and everywhere!
High adventure that's beyond compare!
They are the Gummi Bears.
*doo-de-doo!*
They are the Gummy Bears!
Wait. You're telling me they made a television show out of a candy?
... Nah, even I can't summon up the appropriate outrage.
It's the Disneyist show ever, too, I decided. Hundreds of images that recall old Disney movies to my mind, especially The Sword and the Stone (which makes sense, as they both have kings and medieval castles and such).
