Wodehouse

Does there exist any Psmith and Mike slash?

Who is this Psmith, you ask? Well, he is a Wodehouse character that predates Jeeves, has his unrufflable intelligence, is young and, unlike Jeeves, is attracted to and revels in Trouble (with the capital T) - although he never seems to realize that he is causing trouble and floats through it all beautifully and unscathed .  If you like Jeeves and haven't read Mike and Psmith or Psmith in the City (and Psmith, Journalist to a lesser extent) you should, you'll like them.

I haven't read Leave it to Psmith but only because it's not available on Gutenberg Project (the others are) but I don't think I would like it as much because Psmith falls in love - with someone who is not Mike.  These two are ripe for slash.  Ripe I tell you.  They're like Bruno and Boots - except in the early 1900's and in a British boarding school.

You can read all about Psmith (the P is silent as in pterodactyl or, as Psmith says, as in "pshrimp") here.  If you're bored one day and need something good (and slashy) to read, you could certainly do worse than Psmith.  What about Mike in "Mike and Psmith"?  Well, Mike is the love of Psmith's life.  He's a lovely young man, much more straight-forward than the complicated Psmith.  You'll love them.  You'll want them to be slashed.  In fact, you should write that...  :)

Hey!  Someone poke astolat (who else writes Jeeves?  I know she's written at least one Jeeves story).
