t puts on "Enabler" hat
I stumbled across this challenge while checking a CSI fic archive.
Given that it's a T.S. Eliot based challenge, I'm hoping for a lot of good, twisty, dark fic to come out of this thing.

That looks interesting, Anne. But I already have so many challenges on my plate (I think six by the end of April) that I'm skipping the Angel femslash-a-thon. And I really want to make someone write Harmony/Eve, pre-Home, because I am evil and wrong.

I'm almost tempted, but Grissom scares me, and I'm not sure I know the others well enough to even think about writing them.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
The Eliot tempts me a lot, but I have never watched CSI.

Always Anti-fascist!
I have, but maybe six times. Not enough to fic it.

Gah. I just signed up. Anne, you wanna beta me, since none of my usual suspects watch the show?

I'd be glad to, Dana. I look forward to seeing your take on the show.

Oh, what fun it is, to have someone read the first three paragraphs of a story with some very complicated characterization and announce that it's "out of character" because the choice the character makes would "spit on her love".
Because we all know that every decision is all about twue wuv, and life is simple, and there are no difficult moral questions or shades of grey in storytelling or real life.
Is there a way to filter only for smart readers?

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Oh, dear. What story was this about? The Casablanca fic?

Nah, it's Xenophilia, where Aeryn makes a very difficult decision about the possible pregnancy.
It's in no way an easy story, and I wouldn't have reacted so bad if the individual commenting had at least finished the story before pontificating on it.
People? Annoying.
