I bet SGA fandom is a perfect fandom for smarm. I haven't seen much since Sentinel days, but you know out there, there are stories with John and Rodney cuddling in bed, but still being *just friends*.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

I did start reading a story with John and Rodney being very snuggly in bed, but they had sex. But then he story jumps to John waking up. Turns out he was beat near to death and they'd pulled out the feeding tube, and instead of dying (like they expected) John woke up.
Then I stopped reading.

Dana, your story is fantastic, you nailed the voices and their relationship.

And Shalott just stomped on them for whining. So you win.

Dana, what's the story's title? I'm woefully unfamiliar with people's lj usernames.

Yeah, the original poster is a piece of work. Thank god for sane mods. Fandom wouldn't run without them.
Thanks, askye!
Matt, it's a terrible title and will probably get changed (and certainly beta-read) before I archive it. For now, it's "Empirical Evidence." The thread is interesting, if you want to see a poster compare slash to a pie filled with crap instead of fruit.
No, seriously.

Oh cool, I liked that one! And have vague recollections of previously thinking that lj user was an enjoyable writer without the slightest inkling it was you.

Thanks!
I feel like I need a new tagline somewhere. "Writing poop-filled pies since 1999."

I guess I can sympathize a slight bit with her complaint, since my usual reaction to discovering unexpectedly that a story is Jack/Daniel schmoopfic tends to be a mental "ick!" and immediate flight to more angsty climes. But I think griping about one's objection to slash in general in a community that's more than half Sheppard/McKay stories indicates that the metaphorical homeowner has left the lights on while vacationing.
