I've never heard a straight guy use "box," but I have heard gay guys use it with great delight.
It was kind of hysterical.
This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

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.

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

I'm still reeling at "pie", as in "guy with pie".

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
...this means something other than 'bloke accompanied by pastry products'?

Has anybody got a Locutus icon lying around? (Preferably a Patrick Stewart-based Locutus.) It's for work.

...so, I'm using the interpipe from school. I'm guessing that this isn't a link I should be clicking from here.

Meanwhile...who's writing good Lost fic? I'm 2/3 of the way through Season 1, and I SO called the incest thing right from the word go. Go me. Am thoroughly gripped, albeit in a mightily WTF???!!! kind of way. But I have faith.
(...actually, what I'd REALLY like to see is RPF with JJ Abrams and whatchamacallim, the writer guy. Because from watching the bonus material, their GeekBoyLove is SO pure and OTPish that I squeed pretty much nonstop. Bless. Them. They're LoTRiPS cute.)
I am loving Lost, though. Fic would be nice - slash, het, gen, whatever. Just good fic. Anyone?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Lessee. I didn't stick with Lost for very long because I didn't like it, but I managed to collect a few scattered fics. Because I do that kind of thing.
You can't have confidence without the C-O-N, Lost/Ocean's 11 xover.
Making Do, Jack/Boone, and this is probably my favorite fic I've read out of the few that have come across my desk. It hits my gay in certain situations thing.
Reparation, Sawyer/Sayid, a pairing of true hotness, there.
Now, in a perfect world, everyone would make the subject titles for fic on LJ something like FIC: Title by Author [Fandom, Pairing/Of Hotness, Rating, 1/1000000] for my organization. But they don't, which is why I suspect I have one or two more lurking in my memories that I can't find. Shrift wrote one (or more?) that are (of course) worth checking out. Especially in the Sawyer/Sayid family.

Oh, the happy hee. There is a Breadbox Summary of SG-1 Avalon. [link]
[MITCHELL JOGS THROUGH THE DOOR INTO THE GATE ROOM, WHERE LANDRY IS ALREADY WAITING. KLAXONS ARE BLARING, AND A FULL CONTINGENT OF SECURITY IS ALREADY STANDING BY. LANDRY TELLS HIM THAT SG-12 SHOULD BE ARRIVING ANY MINUTE, AND HE WANTED MITCHELL THERE. VALA, ACCOMPANIED BY SG-12, WALKS THROUGH THE GATE.]
VALA FANS: Squee!
FARSCAPE FANS: Double squee! With vomit and helium farts!
