Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

Okay.

Where's the Daniel/Vala porn?

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

OK, someone totally needs to write VM/mini-Jack. Well, not in a shippy way, but as an excuse for a snark-off to end all snark-offs. Having him transfer to Neptune High is pretty minor as crack-addled AU devices go.

Fay, I'd say to stay away from VM fic until you're done with the season, because a lot of fic spoil for the identity of the rapist & murderer, and if at all possible, I'd recommend watching the whole season unspoiled.

I haven't seen that many Logan/Weevil fic despite the rampant slashiness. Come to think of it, I can only count a handful of stories I found memorable, full-stop. There are fic (largely het), but most of them are so-so in quality, and the best ones are set post-finale. (I think all the best slash writers have gone to SGA fandom.)

You're about half-way through the season, right? We have a few stories at BSO, but most of them are spoilery for the finale. Hmmm. Let me see if I can round up some non-spoilery recs.

Silvia Kundera's "This Is Not Ironic". [link] Weevil fic, mostly backstory spec and not spoilery.

Mosca's "Nobody Wants to Uncover". [link] Weevil/Logan set around "The Girl Next Door" (the deeply slashy detention episode.)

Another good post TGND fic: [link]

Hawt and snarktastic AU version of "An Echolls Family Christmas" (the poker episode), "Snark Never Goes Out of Fashion" (Veronica/Logan) [link] One of my favorites.

Fucked-up Veronica/Logan/Duncan (not spoilery post ep. 1x08), "History" [link]

Short but evocative Logan-centric ficlet, "The Scent of Blood Orange" [link]

I like Fox's "If It Makes You Happy" a lot , which is a Veronica/Logan circa 1x10 and is messed up and ouchy in the best possible way: [link]

Hawt Weevil/Logan/Veronica smut, "Sweeten the Pot" (set during the poker episode): [link]

Totally adorable wee fic about Logan and Duncan meeting for the first time in the kindergarten: [link]

"Family Ritual", which is about Aaron and Logan during that scene in "Return of the Kane". It's pretty fucked-up, and altogether believable. [link]

OK, that's as many I can dig up in early episodes-centric fic. As a rule, the LJ community vm_fic (http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=vm_fic) is a good place to go; they catch most stuff that are decently written and characterized, and they ladies who run the community helpfully label the fic by the episode they spoil, which is a huge help if you're not done with the season.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Where's the Daniel/Vala porn?

An excellent question.

If I only had a brain...

There isn't any good stuff, and don't think I haven't been looking. Julie Fortune has made vague promises.

I keep an eye on the LJ community daniel_vala [link] .

If I could write banter, I'd try it, maybe. But I can't, so.

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

Thanks, my lovelies! You rock!

Serious question: Is Daniel attracted to Vala?

I know all of *us* are, but I'm wondering if he's just annoyed. And not in that annoyed I-want-to-do-you way, just peeved.

Is Daniel attracted to Vala?

He's missing Jack.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I'm gonna buck the trend and say no, not terribly. I mean, he's got eyes, but I don't think he really wants to do her; I saw some describing his behavior toward her as looking like big brother and annoying little sister, and I think that's closer to what I see.

I think he could get there--they click together pretty well every now and then--but he's not there yet.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Is Daniel attracted to Vala?

Nope. Very with Katie here, although I'd add that they'd have to sell me pretty hard to buy that changing.
