Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think we should do a similar challenge.

Bee-yatch, you on AIM?

Thanks for all the fish.

What sort of challenge would that be?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Where you trade stories with another person, and take their story and rewrite it from a certain point. Which is a challenge Ple made, only her's was take your own fic instead of someone else's.

Which is how Absolution was sprogged. No pun intended.

Huh. Interesting thought.

Are they good enough to warrant such close scrutiny?

The author in question is good. But it's all pairings I don't write and fics that are kind of...vague. That's not the right word but it's the best I can come up. The stories are ambiguous in some respects.

And I'm not the sharpest spork at KFC when it comes to this stuff. So I need to read them and figure out what they mean and they decide how I'ma gonna fuck with that.

Can you make them...less vague? Like, plothaving?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Don't read Stargate, but Brighid, whose taste I trust, says that this is excellent.

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

Whoa. Would this be the same Amperage as in Amperage and Livengoo who wrote in The X-Files way back when? I gotta go check it out. Whoo! t /recent Stargate convert

Vonnie, I almost posted some other Stargate links in your LJ this morning, but they were slash. Regardless, Brighid writes some of the most fabulous stuff in any fandom, so I bet her Stargate is pretty nifty.
