DPP: First Fic Friday!

[winegums]

We've had a comfortably quiet week here, and it's been nice (I would like to speculate that it is because people are following the collective meltdown of one of the most annoying fandoms in existence in the wake of scandalous celeb gossip, but that's just me and my cackling, plus my eternal gratitude that we're not anything like that level of crazy

I tried to stay away from BSG fanfic for awhile, because I knew that the show had a MASSIVE fan following and there would be fic out the wazoo and I would end up being spoiled for all of the seasons I hadn't watched yet. But by the time I had hit the end of season 1 I just had to try and find something with out spoiling myself.

Somehow I stumbled across reelpilots and a link to The Cutting Edge (My favorite movie of all time BTW).

The first story I ever wrote was Whom The Gods Would Destroy. A drabble playing with the Apollo and Daphne myth.

haha that's pretty much what happened to me too, I tore through Season 1 and NEEDED the fic like burning and ended up spoiling myself! That's the great thing about AUs, they still give you your fic of the characters you love, but without spoilers.

Also your icon is giving me so many FEELS :(

I have that titled in my list as "Lee, Before and After".

You can also feel free to snag and use, just credit n_e_star or my comm palis-delon

I am pretty sure that the first BSG fic I read was Leda13’s ”Fearful Symmetry”, which became one of my favorite Kara-centered pieces in fandom (yeah, I am a lucky girl because that was a hell of an introduction IMO, hee). Also, I think the first LJ I started like seriously lurking was taragel’s journal. I was such a stalker, lol. Ah, good times! And so much fun :)

Oh wow, it really is a beautiful piece. You did get lucky with that for an intro to pilotfic there :)

I think the first fic I read might have been the wonderful Detour by brynnmck. First fic I wrote was Brotherly Advice.

There is so much amazing vintage pilots fic out there (as in, written pre-finale), it'll take me years to get through it all at the rate I'm going. I'd read some of brynnmck's stuff before but not this, so thank you for the link!
