Dude, just cause some of y'all were not on my Happy Two Year Egypt Cruise...
I always had hope. I just sort of perched there like a vulture, waiting for canon to give me an opening. Any opening.
Glad to hear some of you liked it. I've been chewing on the CRACK lately. Seems that the busier I am, the more I write. I resent this.
Does anyone have any details on what went down with the actors playing the Weasley twins and twincest slash?
What I remember is that someone came up to them at some sort of public appearance, told them about twincest stories, and took a picture of them holding a sign that said "Twincest sucks" or something like that. The picture was all over Livejournal for a while, and kerufflage occured, with a lot of people saying that it was tacky to recruit real people to further your fanfic cause. I have no idea what the ultimate resolution was, if any.
Want me to google for the picture?
That would be great -- I read discussion on it, but the picture in that LJ entry had been taken down.
I was wondering if it was sabotage, if the twins had actually expressed an opinion or had it placed in their hands for a photo op.

I think this -- a fan asked them to pose with the sign, or at least that's the impression I got from what I read about it.
Image is hard to find with the obvious keywords. I'll try the actors' names....
Whyfor do you bonk me, Dana?
And I CANNOT find the picture. Sigh.
Oh, I'm not bonking you. I'm just stunned at the people who have no problem going up to actors and saying, "Hey, in case you didn't know, people out there write porn about you! Wanna say something about that?"
ION, Ducks' fanfic site seems to have gotten a C&D. Details here. Note that the board I linked to is apparently B/A focused, pretty anti-Spike, and not pleased with later seasons of the show.
It looks like they're pissed about pic and not fic. Is that your read of it too?

Hello! This is your friendly Sense Of Shame calling. You seem to have left me behind at a truck stop in Toledo. I don't have a problem with the porn, really I don't, but in the interest of evolutionary continuity, please come pick me up and reinstall me soonest so that I may save you from being added to Scary People Arrest On Sight lists. You know I only want what's best for all of us. Thanks!
