solafiammaSo, yay with the MTYG reveal! And a great big SMOOCH for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nopseud for the fabulous And You'll Notice My Smile (Is Like Kool Aid), which was the PERFECT SeSa giftie for me, with Lance and his KILLER SMILE and CHRISSSSS!!! and miscommunication and cluelessness and snark layers and all manner of AWESOMENESS and, oh, yes, did I mention? CHRISSSS!!! And written by nopseud, so if you haven't read it yet, jump on it NOW before it, I don't know, it BLOWS UP from sheer FABULOSITY.
I've managed to read most of the Trickyfish, TrickC and Lambs, but that's about it. I've been horribly caught up with not murdering my aunt lately (quite successfully, so far, knock on wood), but she's finally buggered off to visit a friend for a week and then she'll be moving in to her independent living place, which is too far away too visit on any kind of a daily basis, so FREAKING YAY on that score. Phew. Maybe I'll be able to read some of the other pairings now.
I wrote Midas Touch forsilveryscrape. When I recieved my assignment, I was all OMG YAY! TrickC! For Mary!! Because, dude, TrickC! My second favourite pairing! And then I paused as sanity took hold and realized, OMG, for Mary! Because I'm, like, kind of in blistering awe of Mary's ability to pack a bazillion layers of meaning into THREE WORDS, which is a skill I clearly lack. *glances upward. um. yes. clearly* PLUS, Mary mentioned in her lj that she had a special fondness for now!fic or future!fic, and I'm so woefully out of the loop these days in terms of canon that I thought I'd have to move into someone else's HEAD (I'm looking at you, withdiamonds, because, dude, your encyclopedic grasp of canon is MIND BOGGLING) forthe duration of the writing, which somehow didn't seem feasible, what with the aunt-ing and whatsmasing and all that good stuff. BUT. Then I read more closely, and Mary ALSO said she liked fantastical elements, so yeah. Ugly magic shoes. Of COURSE. What ELSE? The thing almost wrote itself. AHAHAHA.
Big squish to Budge for the beta, but please don't blame her for the typos I noticed just now when I went to the MTYG site to grab the link, because those happened AFTER she gave it back to me. Gah, the humiliation.
Huge thanks also toephemera_pop, nopseud, phaballa and vaudevilles for keeping the popslash SeSa alive and kicking for another year!

Date: 2008-01-08 11:17 pm (UTC)As far as AUs are concerned, I adore Lance, his personality, what he looks like, how he moves, how he talks. But I love Lance Bass, member of NSYNC, with everything that goes along with that, way more than I love or am interested in Lance Bass, biking tour guide or architect, or, god help me, high school student.
Sam and Dean, though. Fucking amazing characters and canon. I may be late to the party, and just in time for a truncated season 3, but wow. It's an interesting fandom, too. Why would anyone write a Sam/Dean AU? There's that one 23/? 'verse where they're students in a boarding school and NOT BROTHERS, and I guess so that's so the writer can do sex without that pesky incest. I'm not reading it, but I assume that's the reason. Um, that sounds like original fiction to me.
But anyway, all that fic is fascinating to me, with the different directions it takes. So, yes, you're right. THERE'S ROOM FOR US.
