And if you're looking for Hard Core Logo fic that's gritty and raw like an open wound, try Hetre Z's One, Two.
It's the dysfunctional Joe'n'Billy show.
And now my boy's in love. All hearts and flowers. But, doesn't it freak you out that she used to change your diapers? I mean, when you think about it, the first woman you boned is the closest thing you've ever had to a mother. Doing your mom and trying to kill your dad. Hm. There should be a play.

My local paper ran an article about fan fiction as its feature on the Friday insert.
Can you imagine my expression of "Oooooh nooooo!", my fork halfway to my mouth, as I frantically scanned it to make sure there was nothing that could be connected to me?
Fortunately, it focused mainly on gaming fan fiction, parody, and young teenagers. It actually also wasn't insulting.
If I have any ambition this weekend, I'll see if I can't type it up.

Thrive to spite them
Lizard that is bad, I only skimmed it but it's bad, not made any better with the phrase "woke up in his own sticky emissions"...

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I had to stop reading when it started turning into songfic.

I've learned that if it inspires La Lizard to profanity that odds are I should just go re-read some nice Spike/Xander.

Oh, I'm easily inspired to profanity.

I clicked on it, though, because Anna S. mentioned she'd been thinking about writing a mini-tiny S/X-flavored AU S5 (as her lovely story Sidelines was for S4), and she nodded to it as an effort at exactly that that had already been done. I think it's like when Speranza nodded to that horrible Fraser-POV thing in her notes for Chicago's Most Wanted. And I really know that I'm not Speranza; and I'm not Anna S., but it would seem to me that with the both of them being such amazing, intelligent writers it's kind of a little understood courtesy that they have to bow to the people that had previously written stories with the same ideas, but... dude. Anyone with half a brain can see they suck.

It might have been one of those "Such a great idea, if only they'd had the tools to pull it off, I have to set this right" kind of things.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Oh, yeah. I do that I the time. I was reading a story this evening, and it didn't suck, but I thought the characterization was way the fuck off, which made me think about the characterization I'd do... Storywriting, I believe, often works like that.
