Oh my God.
Sometimes, my flist worries me. Seriously.
But let me start at the beginning. I just read a little ficlet by
order_of_chaos - first person POV, no names mentioned. For those who don't know her (which would be a SHAME, because she's a genius!), she's mostly writing in the PotC fandom, so I expected the fic to be about Jack and James - or at least, I expected to read Jack and James into it at once. What totally surprised me is that I didn't. What I saw instead of Jack and James were Miroslav Klose and Ivan Klasnic - and I don't know if that's my own fault or the fic's fault. I know I've been spending a lot of time in the football fandom, but with some fics, it's not possible to read football people into it, and I wouldn't even be that confused now if I had thought about Jack and James BEFORE switching over to Miro and Ivan. But the two Bremen players entered my head IMMEDIATELY after I had read the first line. The atmosphere of that fic is so them that I'm completely speechless.
Do you know that feeling? Or am I going completely bonkers?
Maybe you should see for yourselves:
Love Hate I - Animosity.
