Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

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.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

WOOT!

And Thank you!

My latest Star Trek offering, written for Trek Reverse Bang:

We've got the right to pick a little fight (Bonanza!)

Gen, PG

Summary: Larry just wants to impress a girl. Instead, he saves the world?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Sail,

Interesting, from what I read, but chapter 2 is a duplicate of chapter 1.

Because books.

I really can't take any fic seriously that uses "limpid blue pools" unironically.

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

Well, at least it's not "his cerulean orbs."

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Is someone moving with a cat-like grace?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If it's my fic reading list, they're "merging with his mossy jade stare".

Because books.

I quit reading at "limpid blue pools," so I have no clue. Someone was undoubtedly going to move with cat-like grace any moment, though.

I have no idea how I made it far enough into a fic that this line:

Sam glared; "don't... Even... I am absolutely knackered! My head is pounding... There was no milk so I'm having overly-sweetened black coffee... Just... Couldn't this have waited, Gabe?"

made me stop reading, because there's no way that was the first hint. But since Amy is setting a good example, I can learn from her determination and save myself the aggro.

Which is another word neither Winchester brother is likely to use.
