Yeah, I'm certain that it happens all the time.

While xenokattz  may blame me for enabling her, I would like to say that she is just as good. Because of her, I may not only end up writing "Eastern Promises" fic (because when we geek, we geek HARD -- the proof is in the pudding, as the idiom goes), but I now have an incredibly huge fandom craving that is entirely her fault.

So, how much do I now want a

So, how much do I now want a historical AU fic (or just fanwork of any kind) featuring Remy and the rest of the LeBeau clan during the Acadian expulsion, maybe making their way down from Nova Scotia to Louisiana?Errrrnnnngh! WANTS. NAO. And then there's the whole fact that even though France promised the Acadians land in the south of the Louisiana purchase, by the time they actually got there, the land belonged to the Spanish. As well, the existing colonialists (AKA the Bordeaux clan) looks snootily down at the Canadian hicks with their peasant spun and hoes and awful patois, shaming almost everyone to retreating to the swamps

You know, I tried typing out an initial response to this, but it came out as a keyboard smash. Mainly because I was hyperventilating out of unadulterated glee.

YES. YES. YES. SO VERY MUCH YES TO THIS ENTIRE THING AND IT NEEDS TO EXIST NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAO.

Mainly though? An EFF YEAH in general because OMG THIS WOULD BE THE BESTEST THING EVAR. Canadian history, Voodoo, and X-Men lore all coming together in one place? HOMG. I'm nerd-spazzing so freaking hard right now, and it is not attractive in the slightest.

And EFF YEAH Emil plays the fiddle. He is the most hardcore of the hardcore, and I swear that I'm not imagining a "Devil Went Down To Georgia" type narrative. Nope. Not at all.

Why does no one write stories we want to read, Percy? Why do they ALWAYS make us write it ourselves?

[lithiumlaughter]

Because we're sick and masochistic that way?
