Okay, when I joke about protective hysterical amnesia after reading certain fic?

That is real!!!!!

Or so a chat a year ago seems to imply, when I was like "I HAVE READ THIS THING WITH ****-***** and there was ** ****** **** and OH MY GOD I WILL NEVER BE CLEAN AGAIN.

And she shows me a conversation....

(wait. I need to take a minute.

....

Okay.)

A conversation. Where we. Talked. About. This. Story.

I'd poll on my rapidly degenerating cognitive processes, but it would be far too depressing.

Right. Onward to other things.

[livejournal.com profile] amireal mulls fic tropes: make that *a* fic trope - There needs to be more coming out fic. This used to be a BIG THEME a few fandoms ago, but themes, as we know, come and go. Today it's wings, a few years ago it was pretending to be gay FOR THE GOOD OF THE UNIVERSE.

So I crave old themes in my new fandoms. Mmm. Coming out fic.

I don't just mean "We're gay now!" fic. But-- John is accused of murder and Rodney is his alibi! Only it was night time and they were sleeping together!

Or or! John and Rodney are trying to live their lives after atlantis and they run into parents/siblings/exwives/old classmates etc!


I really like the murder one. Or ooh--both of them accused. Or Rodney or John accused of fathering some alien savior!

Seriously. Where the hell are the saviors? Considering worship of the Ancients? There should be holy born kids already.

(it's already been a long day. I woke up late. My shirt is not dry. It happens.)

Random Questions

There was this fic. Not the bdsm ones. It wasn't in SGA. But it was this entire universe that was gay. And--that probably hits a lot of stories, doesn't it? *sighs* I think this one was possibly in Stargate SG1--i read it, er, about five years agoish.

Random Recs

Okay. When I say "gay-making environment", it sounds silly, but this one is kind of cool. They go to this planet, where--okay, I'll quote.

"I went to the Captain to ask permission to ask to study your people," he
informed them. "You're fascinating. You have the same outward appearance as
Earth Humans, but certain factors about you-"

The Pagenisians nodded knowingly and Wani interrupted him. "It is the fact
that our entire population is homosexual."

"That always is of great curiosity for any off-worlders," Sno chimed in.

"Well, it *is* rather unusual," the EMH admitted. "Homosexuality exists in
our home quadrant, yet only on an individual to individual basis, not an entire
planetary population. The closest there is to it is a small number of species
that are androgynous. However, all of them have been androgynous since their
species began to evolve. At least, as far as we have been able to discover. We
don't have any species that exclusively are homosexual. And according to the
Captain, your people were *heterosexual* until forty-seven generations ago when
everyone made a conscious decision to become homosexual? We have never
encountered a culture like yours before. For centuries, scientists have been
attempting and failing to explain, in scientific terms, incidents of
homosexuality in *individuals*. In an *entire planet*, that's more complicated.
It is quite the mystery from a sociological as well as biological point of
view."


The authors' website is down, and I couldn't find it in Trekiverse (which granted, is not the most easily navigatable archive in history), so used wayback. It does make interesting use of the Prime Directive. This also qualifies as literally the first slash story I ever, ever, ever read. Yes. I remember being very surprised.

If anyone has an alternative link, I'd love a better one.

Hmm

I should do work at work today. Let me consider this thoroughly.

Pshaw. Who needs to work? Obviously, our day would be better spent amusing each other. Although I do have to finish my [livejournal.com profile] atlantisbasics story and beta another. Le sigh.

It's all rainy here, but I'm kind of glad because the meteorologists have been pulling out the dreaded "drought" about our summer to date.

I honestly think I've read more badfic in SGA than any previous fandom. My love of the characters draws me in, and then it's like a trainwreck and I can't look away.

For sheer horror, I don't know that anything will ever beat Clark's prehensile cock. And I didn't even finish that story! I screamed, closed the browser window, and shuddered for a good half hour. The trauma lingers to this day.

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:08 pm (UTC)
What was that fic called? I alwasy twitch, but can never remember.

There were many abuses of Clark'e penis. I made a list (http://seperis.livejournal.com/182879.html). It even has it's own tag, just in case I find a new one somewhere.

From: [identity profile] thepouncer.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:25 pm (UTC)
I cannot remember the title. This is probably my instance of hysterical amnesia.

Why are there not more examples in fandoms that I want to read in? Honestly. Burn Notice could do with some forced to marry stories, don't you think?

Burn Notice could do with ANY stories. I want Michael working on the car and getting all greasy and Fi showing up and then he bends her over the trunk and they have massively hot sex with banter.

*wibbles*

Dear lord, I want to read that now. I know of one BN story crossover with SGA, where Sheppard appears on Michael's doorstep, but next to nothing set solely in the show universe. And they're so pretty! And witty! And they fight crime!

Why aren't good writers out there dancing to my whims?

From: [identity profile] seperis.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:03 pm (UTC)
It's not a bad story! That's the funny part and what makes it traumatizing. It's the yuletide Care Bear bondage fic. Bent. Mind.

Yet so freaking *hysterical*. I bookmarked it.

From: [personal profile] ratcreature Date: 2007-08-21 03:10 pm (UTC)
Oh, I remember that. I don't think it had it's full impact on me because beyond collecting the stickers into a book as a child I never had much contact to Care Bears, and I only really knew them by their German names anyway. Here they are called "Glücksbärchis" (literally meaning something like "little happy/luck bears) so at first I didn't even realize it was the same series.

From: [identity profile] sp23.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:09 pm (UTC)
Heh, about the murder plot, I actually have had a plot for an "original" (and I use that term loosely) romance fic set in cowboy times where the handsome stranger is accused of murder, but he can't have done it because he was having sex with the heroine's sister who was married and so she comes crying to the heroine that she can't be the handsome stranger's alibi because it would ruin her marriage and her reputation. He refuses to name the woman he was with because he's noble and stupid that way, and so at the trial the heroine comes forward and lies on the stand and claims he was with her. So he gets acquitted because the heroine is (or rather was) a well-respected ranch-owner (of course), and in order to salvage her now tattered reputation, she and the handsome stranger must marry! Wacky hijinks ensue involving the real murderer and cattle rustling or stage holdups, or shady bank managers... something. And in the end they fall in love and have lots and lots of sex. *g*

Dude, the possibilities of what the actual murder was about is endless, but in the end irrelevant since the whole point of the story is to get Handsome Stranger and Heroine into bed. *g*

From: [identity profile] thepouncer.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:32 pm (UTC)
Well yeah, but if there's stagecoach related shenanigans, the Handsome Stranger could impress the Heroine with his mastery of horse-riding, no?

From: [identity profile] sp23.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:35 pm (UTC)
*nods* Mastery of horse-riding including scooping Heroine up into his manly arms while riding past at a gallop to rescue her from impending doom is absolutely a must scene!

I haven't had my caffiene yet and the slash goggles are, like, surgically implanted and I thought that it was going to be the heroine's brother he slept with. Or something. Which, uh, mind you I think the original thing is pretty awesome! I am going to go drink some soda and pretend I am awake.

From: [identity profile] sp23.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 03:51 pm (UTC)
Hee, I was thinking that if I made this an AU on Planet Gay, I could turn it into a John/Rodney fic with John having slept with Jeannie and Rodney bravely taking the stand to protect his little sister's reputation. *g*

From: [identity profile] amireal.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 04:26 pm (UTC)
YES! THIS TYPE OF THING. Ahem.

Imagine who would end up pretending to be John or Rodney's lover?

From: [identity profile] sp23.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 04:34 pm (UTC)
I know! It's so hard, because I'd want Rodney (Handsome Stranger) to be with Sam (Heroine), but John is so obviously Handsome Stranger, and I can't see him with Sam and I can't see Vala as Heroine and Elizabeth is too boring. And then where would the other boy fit in?

From: [identity profile] amireal.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 04:40 pm (UTC)
I think John would be Handsome Stranger and Teyla the heroine, it adds angst because John and Teyla have Things In Common and for Rodney that means they Must Be In Love.

From: [identity profile] sp23.livejournal.com Date: 2007-08-21 04:42 pm (UTC)
As long as I didn't have to write John and Teyla actually having sex or falling in love, maybe.

God, I suck at trying to think of John in a het situation. LOL

You cannot taunt me with fic like this and then not give me actual links to actual examples of said fic! *flails* I have no idea why, but right this minute, I would probably give up my firstborn for fic like that. Especially the Rodney and John post Atlantis running into People They Once Knew. Post Atlantis is made of awesome. (Tho colony!Atlantis, and John/Rodney with the colony!Atlantis, is way better.)

I'm actually very tempted to do this, now that everyone's talking about the murder plot. But I'm sure someone who's a better writer than I am will write this fic now, and I don't want my own story with the same content like the brilliant one look pale and weak in comparison ;)

Seriously. Where the hell are the saviors? Considering worship of the Ancients? There should be holy born kids already.

Hmm, a bit late for the post, but I've always had the idea of John and/or the natural gene carriers being seen as your gods/deities and the ones that got the therapy being seen as imposters/devils/second-class citizens/something really, really bad.

I was never sure if it would be outsiders thinking such or if something happened to make the expedition themselves think that (because John would, of course, be the leader of the naturals and Rodney would be the leader of those w/the therapy, which leads to all sorts of confrontation) or hell, an AU of such.

Not sure where those without the gene would be in the grand scheme of things. Worshippers?
