We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.

Hey. New board.

Darn you, wee Plei! Our conversation over in B and A inspired me to read some Buffy girlslash. And now I might have to finish my dusty old Great Willow/Tara AU Fic that I started ever-so-long ago.

Sometimes I wish I were less ambitious with my fic. I'm several thousand words into two different fics that could easily turn into novels if I ever get around to finishing them. Hopefully the sixth Harry Potter book won't turn my Hermione/Ginny one into a useless mess.

EDIT: OH NOES! It looks like I may have lost what I had of that Willow/Tara. How could I have done that? Sad now.
