fic: Five Planets Never Visited by the Excalibur (PG, various)

Aug 02, 2011 20:52

Title: Five Planets Never Visited by the Excalibur
Characters/pairing(s): the crew of the Excalibur, with vague implications of pairings
Warnings/notes: Crusade-only fic, so probably best to give this one a miss if you haven't seen the series. Also: vaguely (femme)slashy, in the sense that yes, I ship, but no, this is not a romance fanfiction.

five planets that ought to be on any self-respecting spaceship's itinerary )

This made me smile! I love it :)

"Honestly, Maximilian, what do you think I am?"

("A colossal pain in the ass," Eilerson muttered.)
^I could hear their voices right there.

I love the "five things" in fanfiction and I love what you've done with it. Great fic. Crusade needs more love!

Thank you very much! I was just sort of uh wishing Crusade had gotten a second season, and from there, the idea for this fic was born. (Admittedly, even a second season might not have included alien catladies but eh.)

Great fun! Really good charactisations and it is amazing how many stories you tell in so few words! It is really fun to see how much you tell us about the characters in this.

(Also, yay for writing Crusade - I'm glad I'm not the only person writing it for this fest) :)

Thank you! I suppose I could have settled for just one planet/story but ... on second thought, no, I couldn't have. *g* Happy you liked.

(And hurray for a second person writing Crusade. ^_^)

"Look at it from the bright side, sir," Matheson said. "We could be talking to Jar-Jar Binks." Yes! What a delightful story. I am squeeing!

Thank you! I definitely think Gideon would prefer Ewoks over Jar-Jar Binks any day of the week - for all that he needs Eilerson to translate whatever they might know about a cure. *g*

Loved it - hehehe, so tongue in check. Especially the last planet. Ewoks! And then..."We could be talking to Jar-Jar Binks."
*still laughing*
How I loved Galen. Always wished there were more episodes, or that the series could have had a conclusion.
This was such fun - thanks.

Thank you! it was great fun to write, too.

(I was slightly stumped for the last planet for a while, but then it just sort of clicked - even if I suppose Ewoks aren't a cliché, as such.)
