Somebody who is reading my fic in lj is expecting a happy ending for her favorite ship(which I like too, or I wouldn't write in it) but, strictly speaking, I'm not seeing it, at least in a "They get together" sense. Not this time...shippiness just means an acknowledgement of the other as a sexually attractive being, yes? UST counts, right? My other thought "This is what it feels like to be Plei." Although she is still mistress of darkfic. This one isn't dark or light...sort of ambiguous. Whatever ending happens, they're gonna have to sweat this time. Of course, it feels different than "Band Candy". Damn.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

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'll have you know, I'm working on TWO happy endings right now, missy.

So, maybe I'm going darker to keep fandom on its axis?

I have always sprinkled fluff in the darkness, and really, am not sure where this "dark" rep comes from. *g*
But I hear it often.

Considering how "Sunrise" is going, I'm intrigued....

I know how it ends. You will note that it's been gradually getting less and less bleak.

There are NO puppies.
Though, honest to Dog, I did consider them for the cliche fic.
I settled on something else, instead.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Gah. The biggest Farscape fic board has instituted mandatory disclaimers and strongly encourages specific warnings for sex, violence, and cruelty to puppies.
...okay, that last wasn't true. But someone has asked the mods to require advance warnings for slash. Sigh.
I can't even begin to have this discussion again. I just can't. So I'll just sit here and think evil thoughts about unlabelled character death fic.
