those heady days of occupying the moral highground.

I don't care about moral highground, dear Fay. I'm just grumpy because they're writing what I don't want to read, is all. I imagine I feel like all those people whose authors have abandoned their favorite fandom for Smallville, and the like.

Sorry - that totally wasn't meant to sound like a jibe at you/anyone else; it's just that I do think the non-RPF folks have the moral highground. Which makes it difficult for me to reconcile my continued feeling that it's an unneccesary and essentially discourteous form of erotica with the unpalatable truth that I really enjoyed Calico's LotR RPF, and a couple of others too.

I am ruefully amused at my own hypocricy & pine for the days when I was all stout-hearted and believed my own press. Sigh. (But I didn't mean to start the pro/con debate all over again, for it is tired like a tired thing.)

In other news - saw the slashiest episode of Voyager I've happened across so far this evening. Harry/Tom - their love really is a beautiful thing, and the HoYay really was wall to wall. Bless. Enterprise could definitely sell me on Trip/Malcolm with no effort at all. And as I'm re-reading The Princess Bride for the first time in about twelve years I find myself craving Humperdink/Count Rugen. Or possibly Fezzik/Inigo.

Which Voyager Fay? Was it the prision episode? The Chute ?

Yep. I'm still at a loss to think of an interpretation other than "I'm making him my bitch" for the nasty prisoner's attempt to cart Harry away when he first arrived.

(Hi Fay! t waves hand madly )

Hmmmm. I should probably write some fanfiction. Kinda gone dry lately.

But apropros of that, anybody have recs lately? Most any fandom, though I got to watch some Stargate the day before yesterday, and now I'm jonesing for it.

Oh, Fay, that is the slashiest episode. Did you notice the way that Tom and Harry fell asleep holding hands? Awww. Sure, Tom was delirious at the time....

Okay, so now I understand the temptation to write. It is intoxicating.

I need an intervention.

I broke 12,000 words on Part 2 of the DE (which has a name, but which I still think of as either the DE or FutureFicEvilBunnies, which was the file name for the longest time).

I'm almost done writing the Lilah I started in May.

Even Route 66 is going rather well.

So why am I reading AU Badfic instead of writing? Of the Spuffy and Child WIP kind? Please, slap me.

I am horrified and transfixed, but I'm reading Audrey Lemon's (she of the How Slash Saved Me article) Lost Boys series. I need to see this movie. I need to read every good Lost Boys story out there, as much as it deeply scares me.

Link?

I liked the movie a lot at 13. I don't think I've seen it since.

But, anything to stop me from reading the Buffy/Spike/Precious Infant tale.

Haven't any of these people been around children?

Or been pregnant?

For one thing, if you've missed more than one period, or you're more than a little late, the extra line almost always shows up the second it gets wet. You're really, really unlikely to have to wait for first morning urine. Today's tests are insanely sensitive.

For another thing... most five year olds speak in semi-articulate sentences. Mind, they're normally saying things like "That's nice, I wanna watch Pokeman again, how do I rewind?" or "Can I play Sega?", but they're not baby talking at that age.

Sorry. I shouldn't be ranting this much over a premise this bad.
