Porn Delivery

(Not mine, yet. Though I just realized that the battle runs 'til next Thursday, not tomorrow today, so I don't have to stay up all night writing dirty things on the internet, and can therefore go to bed. Hooray.)

Anyway, I've been trawling the battle, and here are some recs, so far. What I'm noticing is that, generally, at least in the fandoms I'm reading in, what's getting written are stories that are really interstitial to canon, by which I mean stories that draw heavily on things that are really going on in the canon storylines, and which are simply being played out during the sex. It's less about PWP in most of these cases, and more about characterization-via-fucking, which is one of my favorite things about good fannish porn, that it's something else while also being hot and dirty.

( Fringe, plus one Fringe/XF crossover )

( The West Wing )

( Doctor Who and Torchwood (that's one fandom, right?) )

( Other: Firefly, Hawaii Five-O, Corpse Bride )

Purim Gifts

(Why, yes, flist, I'm signing up for something else. Because I am, apparently, a glutton for punishment. But this is a great small-gifts exchange, and anyway, I'm a joiner.)

Dear Purim Treat-a-thon Writer,

Hooray! I have never done this exchange before, but, um, I like gifts? And writing things for people? And stories about resistance and radical transformation and women being awesome, and drunken revelry while wearing costumes, which is pretty much what Purim is about, to my knowledge? So I think I have found the right fic/art exchange.

OK, first some general notes about what I like in fic, which I kidnapped (and edited) from my Yuletide letter. I don't really have any graphic preferences, except that Pretty Things Are Pretty. Er, I like funny icons.

( General Things. )

( Fandom Notes (mostly favorite-character lists): The X-Files, Fringe, Doctor Who, The West Wing, BSG, ArchAndroid )

In conclusion, I hope I have not been too much of a bossy asshole! And I am really looking forward to whatever you want to make me! You can ask me questions if you want! Thank you in advance!
