And how similar in many ways John Connor is to Sam Winchester.
John Connor is, I'd say, 75% Sam and 25% Dean. (Long lost Winchester? Y/N?) I swear, I was plotting epic SPN/SCC crossover fic by the 30-minute mark.
(Also, I'm not really a femmeslasher, and even I can see the Sarah/Cameron.)
Oh Aimee, it's so heartening to see you so... innocent. Give it time, though.
Man, I think I bloomed too early with my fic reading. I'd been through mpreg to the other side of wingfic by the time I was sixteen. It would be nice to be shocked, still, occasionally, you know?
Aimee, you should definitely read Tissue of Silver and Things Invisible to See, but I will admit a strong devotion to Transformations (and its sequels: Nights-Blooming Heartsease and Repairs); it's one of those stories I go back to time and time again.
I'm also very fond of momenti diversi, and Blue Vase, which is neither an easy nor particularly nice story, but nonetheless brilliant.
Additionally, I am all about the Harry/Ron/Hermione, of which there is minimal good fic (or at least, this was so prior to DH; given Recent Events this may have changed), so if that interests you at all let me know, and I'll throw some more links at you.
RE: Het pairings, it has come to my attention recently that in the last two years or so I have as many, or slightly less, het pairings as I do slash. This surprises the hell out of me. And it saddens me that I don't have very many at all femslash pairings. There are reasons why that is, I think, but sad nonetheless. F/F needs love too.

There are sequels?!?!? Oh, boy.
Warning: "Night-blooming heartsease" is a gorgeous story, because it's written by julad, but make sure you know what you're getting into going in.
Oh God, I love those stores. I haven't been reading much fic lately, but I might have to donate my weekend to a re-read.
Transfigurations and Things Invisible to See are some of my favorite stories ever in any fandom. Weirdly, I did not used to be able to get to Transfigurations at work (and have a nice copy that Lee sent me on my computer because of it), but I was able to visit SA's links
Also, by the way, that link for "Things Invisible to See" doesn't work any more, because the rebeccalizard domain seems to have expired. I'm pretty sure I found a new link during the recent PolyRecs link check, though I forget exactly where it is. It should be current on the Harry Potter page, though.
Oh, huh. I didn't check, just pulled it from delicious. Damn.
