I will completely read Atlantis, if you want to send it. Although I probably won't have time until Tuesday...and I have no idea when the current flashfic challenge ends.

Hey. New board.

Quiz: What's everybody's most shameful OTP? What pairing do you love to read and feel bad about loving to read it? Any fandom.

Mine is Rory/Paris from The Gilmore Girls. I feel bad about even watching the show most of the time, so reading the fic makes me feel even worse. And yet I do it. Regularly.

brillig

was reading the current flashfic challenge entries earlier and had a psychotic break, I think.

It's the sort of thing that led me to be the unrepetent slasher that I am today. Hell, even the phrase "slasher movie" now has a whole different connotation to me.

Yes, Virginia, once upon a time I said, "Slash? Guys together? That's--but why?"

It's like portions of my mind were replaced by aliens.

Thrive to spite them

I remember the first slash story I read -- I think it was Ducan and Richie or maybe Ducan and Methos (more likely that) and I just didn't get it. Couldn't see the sexy.

Then I read another and I got it (I think it was a better story).

I'm not very OTP. In fact the only OTP I have is the one that's most shameful -- Sayid/Shannon. Yes. I know.

The most unlikely Due South pairing I like is Vecchio/Turnbull -- I think I've read all the good stories (and there aren't more), I can't tell you why but I like the pairing. And Kowalski/Turnbull. But not really Fraser/Turnbull -- doesn't ping for me. But I lke almost every other pairing.

With BtVs, I really enjoy reading Spike/Xander, but at the same time I don't really believe they'd hook up -- Xander has too many vamp issues.

But I'm open to almost any other pairing.

The other night I was wondering if anyone had ever written a Gilmore Girls Luke/Rory. But someone, somewhere probably has -- I'm sure every pairing has been written. But I was kind of wanting a twisted, wrong story from someone who writes well. Just out of curosity.

Hey. New board.

Dude, Rory/Luke almost writes itself. It's a bit squicky, but not too bad for me. The hard part would be writing Lorelai's reactions.

Hell, Rory/Lorelai almost writes itself, and you KNOW it's out there. That disturbs me.

There's Buffy/Dawn/Joyce.

I've read TWO Buffy/Mr. Pointy stories.

Someone has written everything. No matter how freaky the pairing it's out there somewhere.

Pacey/Joey from Dawson's Creek. A;though I am more ashamed about the show than the pairing.

Ouch. Splinters.

Pretty much my reasoning on the shamefulness of Rory/Paris, actually. Because the first season was great, but every week I wonder more and more why I keep watching...

Also, is there any good fic about Lilly Rush from Cold Cash Files? I am sort of fadcinated with her, but I suspect there are only schmoopy hot partner guy/Lilly fics, so i am ascared to look.

OTP? wassat? *g*

I have an OT3, though. Not much into OTPs, although I suppose you could say I cut my teeth on Mulder/Scully. But I'm not embarrassed about it.
