Following on the feedback discussion (I don't get fanfic awards so much I have nothing to say about them), I've just received what I think could be the best bit of feedback I've ever. It's about the Angel/Wesley drabbles, which some of you may have read, it's not long or detailed. The person- whom I've never heard of before- just wrote: "DISTURBINGLY COOL."

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Heh.
Feedback is cool, I don't send enough but I'm trying. I recently got some feedback on some of the first stories I wrote and that's really cool.
The "disturbingly cool" feedbacks are the best.
They are indeed the best. I replied with a simple 'Thank you' and I hope they get the message.
I tend to gibber inanely back to people who write me.
You never gibber to me. To be fair, I don't so much write you as post to you, but still.
I try to answer feedback.
Evil, evil badfic.
"Wild night?" Wash asks cheerily and nudges me good-naturedly with his shoulder. I don't know when or how it happened, but somehow, this easy-going man has become my closest friend on the ship. It's nice to have someone to talk to. As much as I love Jayne and am growing to love the Captain, neither of them have much use for what they consider idle chitchat.
I cover a huge yawn with a hand, nod, and say, "The Captain joined us last night."
"You know, you shouldn't let those two wear you out so much," he says with a little concern and a smile. "You're the only doc we've got and it just wouldn't do for you to drop dead from being over-fucked."
'Cause, ew.
Huh. That's... Huh.
I haven't read much Firefly but strangly I think I know what story that's from. At least I've only seen one Mal/Jayne/Simon story.
No! Don't slash the doctor! He's straight!
