Well, I got it anyway...it's deep and I think it's playable.ETA: I bet Edward R. Murrow never had to worry about being slashed!
I suppose I should confess that I once read Joe Biden/Everyone in the White House fic.
It was pretty funny.
I can also Kevin Bacon the WHRPF fandom to CWPRF and Bandom in a handful of easy steps! (Hint: like most things wrong, it involves Pete Wentz.)
Hmm, yeah. RPF is neither squick nor cake for me, but it's definitely a thing with conventions and plots and storylines and not just pastede.
Yeah, and each RPF fandom's conventions are rooted in the source, for the most part. (I would explain further, but no one had grabbed me a gin and tonic.)
I would grab you booze but then I would have to drink some too, and it's not even noon yet.
It's 5:00 somewhere!
enabler!
This can't come as a surprise, can it?
OH NOES

Bingo. I didn't read RPF until I got into bandom, and even then, it took me a loooooong time. (I think there's a post way back in this thread from me bewailing the fact that there was MCR slash fic.) Speaking strictly for me, from the bandom perspective, it first was that I wanted to read about more (strictly gen!) wacky hijinks, because good God, the MCR boys were made for wacky hijinks. And then the slash (esp. Frank/Gerard) seemed plausible, because of how they present themselves on stage. And then someone had to go and write the epic bandom vampire AU, and it was all over for me.
