Yeah, that's the thing. She's pinged so many troll buttons that some of us are wondering if it's just a huge joke on the fandom:
- Mary Sue fic
- unexpected crossover (not only is Mary Sue an immortal, but she's Duncan's protege
- implausible and over-the-top sex scenes (with Dr. Luka from ER)
- use of sockpuppets, including posting a comment to her own story and then claiming it was a relative who used her computer
- Stirring up a weird discussion about the difference between an "author" and a "writer"
- replying to another author's story in French
- spilling her life details after about a week on the boards, including the fact that she has MS which triggered a near-fatal heart attack a couple of years ago that confined her to her bed and put her on the path to fic-writing
That's the hard part, you know? Because The Plagiarist Who Used Y Too Much strikes me as just as ridiculous and mind-boggling as this latest Nikita kook.
On the other hand, I suppose there are people in the Nikita fandom who would be capable of pulling this off, and by capable I mean the kind of mean-spirited, self-righteous -- er, you know who I mean.

Another mournful chronicle of Harry Potter rising from the ashes of Book 5.
The air held a slight fragrance of abhorrence and it tightly held him with its invisible claws. His eyesight was going in and out of proportion anonymously and everything was distorted for the exception of a dark figure standing inapprehensive to the power tugging wind.
This one reads like spam.

The mental picture this gave me (based on a literal interpretation of the text) gave me my first real laugh of the day. Which I needed.

For a few moments, I was not only getting the literal picture, but thinking of the chatacter Paris from the Gilmore Girls!
Anne , I just read your CSI recs from crack_van as well as an improbable but enjoyable Simon/Lex Luthor, and I really enjoyed them Do you know any more good Dara/Grissom. I am afraid, as is usual with most of my ships, that the schoopy schoop prevails to the detriment of good writing.

In my stubbornly literal mental picture, it's kind of shuffle-hopping along behind him, making moist little squishy-squelchy noises at every hop, and picking up bits of road grime and dropped pigeon feathers as it goes along. Every once in a while it has to stop to catch its breath, because it's hard going, trying to catch up when you're shuffle-hopping and squelching along without legs.

Agreed. It takes a
lot
to get me to read Sara/Grissom, usually a) prior knowledge of the author's stuff or b) a rec from someone I trust. There's only one other Sara/Grissom fic I'm going to rec, and in that one, the 'shippiness is kind of tacked on. Let me see what I can find--I probably won't have a chance to post any recs until tomorrow, though.
Are you sexually frustrated? Is your partner not 'getting it? Do you want to make them notice you? Well, read on, my friend, read on.
This one would probably make me want to read.
*shame*
