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.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Yeah, I had a feeling some of the slashers from TPM days would go nuts over that.

I might have gone a little nuts myself.

Fay, that's exactly what I thought. I haven't read a lot of Qui-gon/Obi-Wan, but now we understand how Obi-Wan survived all those years in seclusion on Tattooine.

Not that I'm saying that's a bad thing, of course.

Fully 2/3 or more of my Netflix queue was selected for research purposes.

Yes, but can a ghostly spectre help polish your lightsaber?

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

I haven't read a lot of Qui-gon/Obi-Wan

Yahtzee's stories were the first ones I read, I think. I've only read a handful of TPM stories (largely from Poly Recs), but there's some fun stuff out there. (Needless to say, I've loved reading Fearless Diva's WIP 'The Language of Baked Goods', which is damned funny but also sexy and all that good stuff.

TPM will always mean torch to me.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

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.

Can you at least point the desperate addicted fic-hunters at the places where such a thing was mentioned, to give a wider hunting-ground? (I quite understand if it's, say, f-locked ljs, but it seems worth asking.)

But what I really want to read is the post-Ep III OB/QG fic.

I'm afraid to say that, having firmly resisted the Q/O concept (on the grounds of icky age-gap) ever since having hear of it, I'm gradually coming around to the idea; post-Ep III is the perfect place for it.

I have a vague memory of a Luke/Han story that went to a number of the places that idea could take you.
