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.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Delurking over breakfast to say: the reason I don't care for Dodger Winslow is that in a anonymized ficathon I guessed which was her story immediately. Because it was the only one with a hinky social-class-and-parenting rant in the middle of it. Even if she were able to be concise, she has no shape of story. They're all bent and crooked as the ego-ideal expands to cram everything else into the corners.

Not surprisingly, her appearances on Fandom Wank and the rants she places within her stories read exactly the same way.

Oh, hah, and guess who's in the first link on Fandom Wank right now. I had no idea.

I am reading centaur fic...

::scratches head::

And I think I'm enjoying it.

I'm about halfway through S1 of Dexter, and I need fic. I've read all the novels, and am surprised (but happy!) with how the show deviates from the novels. So now I want fic. Anyone have any recs?

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

Alas, no. But I just read Finding Nemo slash, and it was very good. Um. Just needed to share that with y'all.

Marlin/Gill? Peach/Deb? Jacques/Bubbles?

I don't even know why I'm asking!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm disturbed that my mind went to a Led Zeppelin/red snapper place.

Nemo/Gill.

(Grown up Nemo, I hasten to add.)

It is both disarming and surprisingly instructive. (The little link at the end to information about the sexuality and developmental stages of clown fish certainly had me going 'Gosh!')

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Cimorene is a very talented writer (she's the one who wrote that terrific OT3 Singing in the Rain story, right?), but Gill is... Willem Dafoe and Nemo has a squeaky little boy voice and... can't quite make myself go there. But the notion that there is a well-written Finding Nemo slash is kind of charming.

I figure if I can enjoy fic about the Winchesters' vehicles having babies I can't judge anything based on subject matter alone.
