A brilliant idea
Aug. 25th, 2005 09:12 amI am so hopelessly behind on the fandom, having been gone most of the month while you all were at your most productive. You may notice drive-by comments from me on posts that are weeks old. I'm trying, I'm failing to catch up. It finally occurred to me while brushing my teeth that I could solve my problem by jettisoning HP fandom and moving on to a whole new fandom. But which?
Well, I used to be a huge Nancy Drew reader as a child, so I know an awful lot about that canon. ND fandom has the huge advantage of being nonexistant (AFAIK), so there'd be no posts to even have to track down and catch up on.
But see, I still like slash, and Nancy and her twu luv Ned are so blatantly het that that would never work for me as a writer. But there are her sidekicks Bess and George. Now George is so butch that even I, an oblivious 10 year old, noticed, so there's the femmeslash right off the bat. And the author made up some beards for them, Dave Evans and Burt Eddleton (Ned's good buddies). If these boys are so agreeable to partnering two obvious lesbians all around town, there's not much writing needed to pair them up as well, so there we have it! My new OTP: Dave/Burt!
Come join my fandom! I've scheduled the wankfest for 5 days from today, we'll all part enemies by the end of the day. The whole fandom from inception to ugly explosion shouldn't take more than a week, tops.
On another topic, I'm not getting nearly enough sleep. Oh, I guess that really isn't another topic.
