Cameron Alphabet Soup! B is for Boondocks

[lolmac]

It's Gen Fic Day again over in sg_fignewton's sector of the Empire, and I have not one but TWO fics for it!  (Although neither one is a novella.  Sorry.)

This is for the letter B in the Cam Alphabet Soup.  The second fic will go up later today.

B is for Boondocks

It was Cameron Mitchell’s twenty-third trip through the Gate, so the number wasn’t anything special

Cam won a place in my heart with surprising speed, considering that I'm a Jack girl. (As you might have guessed!)

This is great!! You really have Cam's personality down to a T. And yes, I am extremely impressed that you can spout off all those techno-gizmo terms without even breaking a sweat!! lol

a lone point of stone and metal in a sea of green and brown and bronze and gold.

Simply gorgeous description!! I could almost envision it. :)

*g* Thank you so much!

I did like the 'widget-o-meter'.

"Not in Kansas anymore" is such a Jack thing to say, but it's so right for Cam too. ;-) So clever!

*g* Thank you! I was having fun with the notion of Cam not being Jack, but inadvertently falling into certain accidental patterns. Especially given that the character really is from Kansas!

Under the wide empty sky, rippling waves of grass ran out to the horizon in every direction from the Gate, a lone point of stone and metal in a sea of green and brown and bronze and gold.

That is such an evocative description.

“Nothing but miles and miles of . . . miles and miles.”

LOL, I can imagine how he'd say that so perfectly.

Thank you! Now I need to write something with Cam and Vala in it!
