Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

That's OK; it seems to my decidedly amateur eye that they mangle concepts on the show all the time. I saw one episode about sabermetrics that was, well, if sabermetrics were really like that, there would be no reason to have a Society for American Baseball Research, because all of the research would already be completed.

You should be hiring yourself out as a consultant.

Oh, word. But the show comes out once a week, whereas fanfiction can just keep coming.

So are there any SW readers/writers/fans around here? Because I have this idea after seeing Ep. III about Obi-wan/Padme/Anakin that will. not. get out of my head. I'm wondering if anyone has written it yet, or saw the same thing I did.

It's possible that I have the heavy-duty slash goggles on.

I've seen mentions of the *idea* of Obi-Wan/Padme/Anakin, but I have yet to track down an actual fic. And I've been looking fairly desperately for any Ep. III fic, because I have plot bunnies and no time to feed them. Ailleann, I heartily recommend that you write it yourself.

I think I saw some mentioned a couple of days ago, but I've no idea where.

And, because this thread's been slow, is the Shiny New Fandom high I'm experiencing at the moment the reason people become such big old fandom whores?

Yup. Plus, never a shortage of anything to read.

I've seen lots of mentions of Ep III fic, but since I still haven't seen the movie like the sad overworked peon that I am, I can offer no recs.

And, because this thread's been slow, is the Shiny New Fandom high I'm experiencing at the moment the reason people become such big old fandom whores?

Uh, possibly. And what Dana said. Plus, I seem to be a multi-tasker by nature, and I also find that it helps to keep obsession to healthy and pleasant level when I spread my interest around.

And if you get frustrated with something, you can just focus your attention on something else.

...which is just a clever cover for the fact that I have fannish ADD.
