Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Can I mention that I still watch the DC series finale about once a year, when I need a really good cry? I was all about the Joey/Pacey. That show is what got me watching the WB more closely (oh, I cringe in embarassment) and that made me watch Buffy as more than the occasional viewer. So I have thanks for it.

The prison colony story is so despicably good. God, sometimes I think Sep could write any broken and fucked up thing and I'd just beg for more. Actually, not thought but fact.

Fay, this isn't necessarily on par with reccomendations, but that I've found enjoyable enough to want to read again. It's not all McShep--gen, other pairings, etc. But there's 158 stories in there, so it might get you started?

I wrote 17 pages of fic and 10,000 words yesterday in three states, on two airplanes, and in my dorm room. I've never gone into writing farr like that before. It was kind of awesome, and the first time I've started *and* finished a story without having any kind of prompt or co-authorship in about two and a half years. It made me so happy.

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

Brava!

Between that and The Roads Never Lead Where They're Supposed to Go, the fandom has been rocking the funny-as-hell crackfic lately.

Oh, yeah, that's just an insanely fun crackfic of a story. I enjoyed it a lot.

But I feel obligated to cheer for the gen adventures, since they seem to be comparatively rare in this fandom. Yay gen!

I love this bit in particular:

"I'll get you for this, Rodney McKay," Carson shouted up at him, raising his fist.

"What, are you a cartoon villain now?" Rodney called back. "Go through the goddamn stargate already, Doctor Claw."

If I only had a brain...

Mighty is the fandom_wank. Somebody's done a Does Doctor Who Have Sex? bingo card. (spun off spoiler rumors for Season 2, but I don't think the card itself is spoily)

Bwah! I believe I fall firmly on the "bitch, please... he totally had Romana" square.

Art Crawl!!!

If the First Doctor had a granddaughter, doesn't that suggest that sex was had at some point?

One of the arguments is that Susan wasn't really his granddaughter. (Personally, I prefer to assume that relationship was exactly what they said it was)

OMGWTF! Someone wrote an SG-1/Atlantis AU in Bryan Fuller's Dead Like Me universe: [link]
