Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Since colbertnation.com used to have a fanfic page (including some PG-13 slash), I figure Real Stephen is more amused by it than squicked. The standalone page is gone, but I'd be surprised if it weren't still going strong in the forums.

But really, everyone should at least read Harry Potter and the Eagle of Truthiness, which is completely G rated and also hilarious.

Always Anti-fascist!

Ok, Trudy, I'll keep my eyes out for a good "Stephen" fic for you...he gets slashed with Jon a lot. I read it sometimes, but writing it seems too embarrassing

Matt Taibbi translates David Brooks. It's a thing of beauty.

I am in desperate need of going to the bookstore in Hastings Ranch and the library down the street. The bad side to the Hastings Ranch bookstore trip is the rain is really coming down now. Maybe I'll wait until this weekend.

Our wings are not tired.

I thought I was the only one here who wasn't into fic. I guess, if Wicked counts, I am?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I don't read fic either, javachik. Except for Wicked and the like.

Wicked is as close as I come.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wicked is fic by my understanding of it. Published for profit doesn't un-fic it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

No fic for me either.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I read a lot of fic, but usually for movie or tv characters. I recently enjoyed some rpf bandom stuff—Seperis' Adam Lambert fic. (If it's bandom when it's about a musician rather than an entire band.) While Lambert is a hottie, I think it's a case of liking the author than fic about the subject matter.
