I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

As noted above, Sweet Charity is live. Bid on a hapless writer or artist or vidder or knitter and make them follow your orders!

I'm up there, but what's pretty exciting, I think, is the number of good vidders who can be had for a relative steal, considering the prices that get paid in the Vividcon auction.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I think that for me, the best story in SGA fandom is a tie between Martha Wilson's Retrograde series, which is awesome plotty crossover comfort-fic, and M.'s Your Cowboy Days are Over, which is critical thinky post-colonial deconstruction of the Atlantis mission. With porn.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

As long as we're plugging Sweet Charity, note that yours truly has knitting -of-your-choice up, and I note a number of other Buffista names I recognize are also offering fic and whatnot.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Is it too late to sign up to contribute? As in, to offer to write something?

Anne -- alas, yes.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I'm also doing Sweet Charity. I offered three pieces. May the fic gods give me strength.

I need to stop bidding on people.

Anne, this is a recurring event, so you can easily sign up next round.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

It's a weird feeling to discover a story you'd completely forgotten you ever wrote, isn't it? I would have sworn I'd never written Buffyverse.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I can't tell much about "Prisoner of War" from McShep Match without spoiling other than saying it's very good. But read it if you're an angsty SGA fan!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Matt, I read that on a friend's rec yesterday. It is good. Hard to read, for various reasons, but good.

And I rarely even read SGA!
