Okay, this is the downside to RPS. I can't kill any of them. That feels like crossing a line that I can't bring myself to cross.
Two words: Zombie. Justin.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that any genre where you can't kill people sucks.
Free yourselves, people! And start off with the people I hate.
Okay, never mind, the pain's talking.

Shrift, you weren't supposed to see that.
Well, the hysterical blindness doesn't seem to be bothering me today... heh.
What can I do to make it up to you?
Well, you're under the weather, so I can't be as unrepentant and cruel as I'd normally like... and the stories I've found thus far have been frightening in the way that has deep sapphire eyes and questionable grammar.

PMM, I haven't got around to this one myself yet, but a friend recced this the other day, and I've read other stuff by the same author, which is resonably good.
That help?

And if you don't mind joining a mailing list on Yahoo to get at the archieves (it hasn't made it to the website yet), she's just posted a, um, intresting Willow/Aragorn story. Here.

Heh. I'll check it out when I get home.
(SA can tell you I spent last night looking for the worst stuff possible on adult fanfiction dot net. Umm. And by worst, I mean... well, don't even want to think about it, because you ain't seen squick until you've seen some of the things up there.)

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Willow/Aragorn?
Colour me cynical. Although I must admit I loved one Smallville/LotR piece by Shalott. Bwah!

Gosh, having one of those job-things really cuts into your discussion time. :-)
Sorry to have been a cause of dissension. I was in a bit of a pre-Xmas funk yesterday and that may have made me overshoot the goal of trying to lay out my particular take on the conceptual issue of RPF/RPS in the spirit of sharing rather than condemning. It is an issue that I have personally wrestled with quite a bit.
I made a post to the LJ discussion, but it hasn't been released yet because it's anonymous.
