We could all use a bit of love these days, and I think the BSG peeps have the right idea. What better way to share the love than a love meme ( Read more... )

To make a more general love post, I wanna talk about writers in general.

As far as personal writing, I love that it's accepted/encouraged to write something set in Season 1, making the story completely AU but still fun. I love that everything's acceptable - even mpreg and crossdressing.

I love that there are writers who take the mess that is seasons 4 and 5 and still find a way to make Clex work whilst still in canon.

I love that sometimes, Clark can be a hooker, and other times, Lex can be a virgin. I love how we can just start the story that way and no one says "No wait, you can't do that."

I love how we can write futurefic where Clark is Superman and works with Lois in the Daily Planet but he doesn't have to hate Lex.

I love how the setting, Smallville, means that anything can happen. Someone can grow wings, one made of fire and the other made of ice, and no one even bats an eye. Here in the Smallville fandom we don't have crackfic. We have canonI love how countless writers include Lex's love of purple in their fics ( ... )

Awww! *giggles* This is my favourite post yet. No really!! You are right--there is something very freeing about the Smallville universe. I think it's awesome that you've praised the writers' creativity.

Here in the Smallville fandom we don't have crackfic. We have canon.
*lol* I love that line!

Everything's acceptable! Yes! That's a great message to spread, because it's waaaaay more fun that way. And there's always someone out there that shares your love. *g*

Thanks! I wanted to send a message that even though every author may not get tons of recognition here, they all deserve love for what they do! The Smallville fandom is indeed a kind of freedom. I like how you put it that way.

And there's always someone out there that shares your love.

This is definitely true!

One thing I think we will always have is a wealth of story possibilities to chose from. Whether canon, AU, fixit or Futurefic, we've got them all. :)

Don't I know it! I have a MS Word document full of links of stories to read. Also, some of the links are to rec posts, which means tons of fics branching off from there! I never imagined this little fandom could be so huge!!

This is about the nicest thing. And I couldn't agree more. So true, every bit of it. *blissful sigh*

I love how Lex and Clark have a destiny, and we can use that in any way we can think of.

Yes, yes--that's it exactly! That's the reason my love for SV keeps me here, keeps me reading and loving every possible way the boys can be written.
