Hey guys. Does anyone have a link to that really good Justice League (DCAU) genderswap fic? The one with Mr and Mrs Mxyzptlk? I remember reading it a while back but I can't find where it was linked from.

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

Sorry, mate! No can do.

However, I've just read the third BtVS Season 8 graphic novel, and I'd love fic recs, if there are any?

Oh dear God. I had this amusing idea for a Twilight/SPN story, but I haven't been able to bring myself to reread Twilight, because - well. Once was enough. In order to refresh my memory I just ventured over to Wikipedia and read plot summaries for the whole series - which I hadn't done before - and I am overwhelmed with the OMGWTF. My eyes have rolled right out of my sockets and I'm typing this blind.

I just - I don't know where to begin. Well, yes I do. Stephanie Meyers says she couldn't think of a wonderful enough name for the offspring of two such divinely perfect people as Bella and Edward, so in the end she had to make one up. To be perfect for the unique and special baby snowflake. Reneesemee.

I just...I...

flails

One assumes that the baby has violet eyes and a perfect singing voice. It's certainly already got a werewolf lover lined up, I gather.

shakes head.

Of course, all this DOES mean that there's even more reason for the Brothers Winchester to get in there and sort them all out...

And by sort you mean salt and burn, one can only hope.

Really, I think the only way to be sure is to nuke it all from orbit.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Seconding Brenda. And Ailleann. And Fay.

The Anne Rice levels of ego and disconnect with anything resembling reality is actually alarming, considering the fan collective for both of them and their works. Although Rice has gone on, I gather, to religious works. As Meyers began there.

Well, but Rice has had the crazy from day one. Interview was written after a three-day booze bender, after all, and they didn't get a whole lot more sense-making after that...

Always Anti-fascist!

wrod. I did make up Super Special Names for characters in my one attempt at fantasy writing. But I was about sixteen, and no money changed hands. Now I pretty much stick to names like "James" and "Katherine"

I always thought it was funny that Rice and Gregory Widen, author of the original Highlander script, were classmates. Both came up with immortal 400 year-old characters who had some fundamental characteristics in common (which I've forgotten as I've fallen out of both fandoms), as well as tertiary characters (Marius, Darius both much older and semi-mentorish). Maybe they were both on that three-day bender together?
