"Logic is wreath of pretty flowers that smell bad."
I have officially joined the dark side as far as fic is concerned.
I've started reading Star Trek fic.
Oh god.
I've been a fan of the original Star Trek series since 1995-ish and, yeah, even at that time, I noticed (and enjoyed) the slash, but even after getting into Akame, and thus fic in general, I resisted Star Trek fic.
I'm uncomfortable reading fic about characters that speak English. I have no idea why.
In the last week or so, however, I've read a whole bunch of Trek fic. Mostly Spock/McCoy because, well, yes. I can't read the porn, though. Oh god that squicks me out. But really, I don't want to read the porn (or the romance). I guess that's not how I see the characters? *shrugs*
One thing I find interesting is there are so many aspects of these characters and the Trek universe that show up repeatedly in fic that I had never seen in canon before, and I'm wondering if it's because my knowledge of Trek is limited to only the original series and the first seven movies (and a couple episodes of TNG). And the first season of Enterprise. Does Enterprise even count?
A couple years ago, I started an Akame AU Star Trek fic. I really want to finish it now to stop me from just writing actual Star Trek fic! But... I can't write Jin. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
Meh. I don't know where this entry is going.
