Shippy thoughts

Sep 11, 2005 15:04

Okay, I'm bored, and kinda upset-not really upset about anything, and getting something down on paper (or on screen) always helps, so this is just babbling. No fics or icons, or anything interesting like that...

fandom babbling including a ship-tally )

Jed/Toby
Oh, my god and I was so sure I was the only one! Not to rampantly pimp or anything (or actually to do just that...) but Tangle. Don't know if you've seen...?

Can you find Jed/Toby anywhere, btw? I've not looked *really* hard since the National Library is less than helpful as a search engine but it seems even less common than Sam/Toby. *weeps*

Jack/Daniel*
*Yessss, oh yes*
Out of curiosity, which eps have you seen?

but mostly I like the beautiful, tortured intellectual kinds
I hear you, man. Although I'm sometimes easy on the 'beautiful' requirement. ;)

Oh, and I'm a terrible person and forgot to tell you this like eight months ago when you posted the link but, I read 'While they Sleep' and...oh *god*. You did, if I remember correctly, almost make me cry at work. :)

Did just there. Sorry, I read, and meant to comment when I had time, then distraction happened. So I guess I'll forgive you for 'While they sleep' :) Glad you liked!

As for Jed/Toby, did you try Big Block of Cheese? http://bigblock.westwingstories.com I haven't read any in a while, but I'll have another look later and see if I have any links saved.

Out of curiosity, which eps have you seen?
Umm...Prisoners (glasses moment!), The Gamekeeper, The Sentinel, Avatar, Affinity, Moebieus 1 and 2. Trying to catch it when its on sky, and reading lots of fics and watching vids. But still need to catch up, so guess I'll have to buy or rent to fully indulge in my Daniel-love. Any particularly good recs btw? I'm working my way through archives, but sloooowly!

Oooh, pretty good choices there. 'Gamekeeper' is on my list of floppy-haired!Daniel favourites ;)

I did yeah, but they've just incorporated Big Block into the National Library so any easy links there were have been lost in the inexact search engine of the NL. But I'm still looking. :)

As for recs, yep - I've a few *g*
'Past Imperfect' by Widget
'Spark of Life' by Kyrieane
'Elements' by Destina
'Civilian' by Paian/Komos
'Context' by Salieri/Troyswann. *Love* this one, it's probably my favourite J/D even though I still don't really understand the ending!
'For Now' by Paian/Komos. *All* of paian's stuff is worth a read. Gorgeous, and *uber* hot, prose.
'Solitude' by Greensilver
'Pieces' and 'Slip' and 'Would, But Not Unless' by Salieri/Troyswann. troyswann rocks. Again, really wonderful prose ( ... )

""Now, most slash writers are straight women, so maybe I shouldn't be too concerned. But still... surely the idea of me with the cute guy should be better than the idea of cute guy with hot guy?""

With regards to this, I'm a 95% lesbo, who hasn't kissed a guy since 1994, but I think Mal/Simon is one of the hottest pairings ever, right up there with Grissom/Greg :> Don't worry about your RL libido reflecting itself in your fanfic... just run wild!

:-) Thanks, that's actually kinda reassuring. And my muses seem to agree with you, don't think I have one het fic in my head right now! All over the Mal/Simon. So pretty (and I saw them in RL *squees....* okay, I'm done). Is that how you came in, btw? Not that I'm complaining, I love people commenting on my non-fanfic or icon entries, but it's unusual... So, looking forward to Friday? ;-)
