Anybody prepared to beta read an X2 story? Kurt/Logan, just under 10,000 words?
(It was supposed to be a drabble. I'm not very good at drabbles.)
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Always Anti-fascist!
Cause I'm not one of those people who thought it bad.(I think those were the first I watched.) But Connie's story is better.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Fay, what's the source of that Speranza quote? LJ or a story (and if so, which story?)

Yep, from a story rather than LJ. I've just had a little attack of Speranza catchup, so I'm not sure which one it was from. Probably Eight Session, Kawalski is Bleeding, An Admirable Solution, The Border Between Life and Death or The Killer Replacements.
DAMN, she's good. Not just in the characterisation and dialogue, but in terms of plot and structure. I can't think of another fanfic writer whose conscious use of the medium to facilitate structure - in a way that totally supports the narrative - has struck me to such an extent. She rocks. Plus - hot. And funny. And hot. And romantic.
What's not to love?

Fay, ITA about Speranza. It's kinda scary, but some of my favorite writers are fic writers. It's like the knowledge that you aren't writing for pay or publication opens you up to take greater risks with the style, structure, and content of your writing.

Thanks for all the fish.
Speranza is the best. I'm a little afraid to actually watch dueSouth because I'm not sure it'll measure up to her writing.

That is actually how Reema made me watch MotB. "It's just like Speranza, but filmed! And with less sex."

Mounty on the Bounty, the due South episode.

Ah. Okay. I did see that episode - and I hate to burst bubbles, but not every Canadian knows all of the verses to 'Barrett's Privateers'. Though I'm fairly sure that we all know the chorus... It was in a beer commercial.
