What's the one story in each of your fandoms that's never been written but that you're DYING TO READ???
Also (if Pen cheated, who am I to play by the rules) how long do your fandom obsessions tend to last and what usually drives/seduces you into new fandoms?
I want to read the long plotty bantery BSG story where Kara decides to find the rails again and gets promoted and knocked back down and kicks and fights and finds friendship with Roslin (who is being kicked to the ground politically but gnashes her scary teeth like a demon and gets back on her feet). And they have to deal with lots of Machiavellian stuff and the angst and woe of wanting the Adama boys but knowing how bad for them they are. And they do that together with huge amounts of black humour and self-knowingness. And then one day, over the light table they plot battles on, they just look at each other. And then they make out. And then they take it in turns to be confused. And then they have sex. Lots of it. With talking
( ... )
I know nothing about BSG. NOTHING. (Except old BSG, but that hardly counts.) Sadly, it comes on at the same time as both Dr. Who and Prison Break, and oh, woe, only one VCR. Prison Break has gone on hiatus for a spell, though, which means the odds of BSG being viewed have suddenly SPIRALED OUT OF CONTROL!!! At which point I may have something pertinent to add in response to your rather awesome sounding story wish.
And OMG YES with the Philadelphia story idea! Somebody (who isn't me) should totally write that right now! This minute! What the hell is wrong with people that they aren't glued to their keyboards tapping this out?? Also, how would you cast it? More importantly, who would Chris be???
I might just kill to read your Firefly/Popslash crossover.
It is so sad when fandom obsessions start to fade, whatever the reason. Did Buffy fandom go potty? I didn't know that. I watched the show but never got involved in the fandom, although I'm not sure why. Probably one of the few times when the show was satisfying enough on its own.
BSG is fantastic. Very dark, but fantastic. So hooray for your death spiral. Um. You know what I mean.
And somebody should totally write The Sparkly Philadelphia Story. Chris has to be C Dexter Haven of course, except there would be no rendition of High Society's 'True Love' because ew. And I think JC should be Tracy and Lance should be Mike McCaulay and Joey the Celeste Holm character. Justin is probably the cutely annoying younger sister. Not that I've thought about this. At all.
and you could always write my firefly/popslash crossover. because you do pretty banter and it would be immensely cool. basically someone has to because now I'm desperate for it
WHY IS THERE NOT FIC ON DEMAND FOR ME WHEN I HAVE A COOL IDEA? WHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY? It's times like these I wish I wrote. Then I clock myself round the lughole and giggle. Because NO. Not a writer. I can beta but have no drive to write at all.
Did Buffy fandom go potty?Oh ho did Buffy fandom head bonkers-wards. There were enough nuts to give anyone anaphylactic shock. Mostly the

Ooh, I can hardly wait for BSG. Dark and fantastic, sounds like just the thing. *rubs hands together gleefully*

Hee! Perfect. Boy, it's been a long time since I've watched that movie. I should strong-arm my sister into watching it with me this weekend.
also, you are eeeeevil. just sayin'. OMG, though, that would be an awesome story. SOMEBODY needs to write that sucker. Tomorrow, please. I haven't actually read any Firefly slash. Any authors you particularly recommend?
dribbly gooey tinhat fangirlinessOh, dear. That does sound kind of. Um. Gross. Who were the Spike redemptionistas? I mean, I'm not asking you to name names, I'm just wondering what their schtick was. Of course, if the memories are just too back-of-the-hand-to-the-forehead painful and something you'd rather not re-live through the re-telling, ignore the question and pretend I never asked it

Everybody should rewatch The Philadelphia Story. Immediately. And then write me fic (am I harping on this too much?). You KNOW you want to!
Firefly Mal/Simon slash - one of the few things I've read is a long incredibly plotty story, set through the entire series. Trauma Medicine can be found hereSpike redemptionistas were all about making Spike not evil and getting him together with Buffy as a nice person (or occasionally with Xander as a nice person). Not as a demon who fought with himself and had nasty aspects. They wanted him boring and safe basically. And the show kinda went there with the giving Spike a soul thing. What me? Bitter about season 7 Buffy? Nooooooo. Surely not
