I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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.

Am I crazy for finding that...more or less crazy? In a fandom the size of SGA?

Speaking as an archivist of tiny to gigantor archives, they are INSANE.

IN. SANE. In the MEM. BRANE.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, I rather thought so.

I also can't imagine changing the title of a story after it's been posted. If it were totally brand-new, maybe, but the archivist even mentioned that she'd read it on the LJ community.

The only thing I can possibly think of is that maybe their software doesn't handle duplicate titles well.

But I suspect it may be an "each story is a snowflake" issue, and I guess I'm just not nice enough to care if an author's feathers get ruffled over duplicate titles.

If I only had a brain...

Offer to change it to "The Widening Gyre".

I should also change the summary to "Rodney thinks about his relationship with John."

Hey, I don't suppose there's a Farscape vid out there to Major Tom, is there?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

On the subject of vids - can you dowload them and watch them on iPods? Or is that crazy?

Hey, I don't suppose there's a Farscape vid out there to Major Tom, is there?

I think I saw something mentioned on my friends list, but I'll have to go and search.

Dana -- can you just add a colon and a subtitle? Counterpoint: something something?

Or isn't that enough?
