Fan Fiction: Writers, Readers, and Enablers
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Dana, I'd like to archive request the one you posted in Bitchy Fic.
Er, I'm kind of tweaking it. And doubling it in size. (Blame Micole). And trying to figure out what to do with it now that it's been profoundly Jossed.
But when it's done, you can certainly have it.
HA!
You're having my issues. (Glowers at 1500 word story that's now 13500 word WIP.)
Although, I tend to just slap the AU tag on anything I know will be/has been Jossed to Hell.
Yeah, which is what I'll have to do, because no way in hell I can rewrite enough to make it un-Jossed.

I knew when I started the current one that I'd be Jossed, but hoped I would be able to finish it before that happened. But, now that I don't have to, the pressure is off.
I fully intend to finish Ethan and Giles in China, because they left it wide open, and some explanation for Off!Giles needs to be done. If I were a less schmoopy writer, I'd off Ethan.
anyone here think they can pull of Darla/Karen (yes, Will and Grace Karen)? Cause, umm... I have a strong desire for it. Real strong. Like, umm. Yeah. Strong.

I have this insane crush on Karen. I'm not especially fond of Will or Grace, but Karen rocks my world. Also, I think that whatever Jack wants, Jack should get, and Jack is CLEARLY in love with Will, which is why Jack has been such a manwhore.
Every six months or so, I binge. It's a bad habit.

I'm sorry, my darling. It's just - well. I watched it once, and said OK, even though D. messing makes me break out in hives, I love McCormick and will see what the supporting cast does. And then supporting cast (male) was toothache-makingly camp and the pretty lady who played Karen opened her mouth and suddenly I was remembering Fran Drescher (ONLY as a reference to voices that make me want to go stick a fork in my own eyeball) and, well, it was no go after that, I'm afraid, even though most of my friends adore it and we share many, many other tastes in common, including Buffy, and Angel, and....

I'm told her actual speaking voice is quite different, unlike Drescher (thank goodness for her if it's true). As I said, the crush is inexplicable. She just... hmm. Paul describes her as the screechy woman, and yet... I adore her. Still, it's the voice that caused the longing for Darla/Karen.
During a rewatch of Dear Boy, I was struck by certain similarities in the way that Darla speaks and the way that Karen speaks. And then I thought about them shopping. And cheerfully killing people. Fashion police with fangs.
