Dark Angel: Plea for FicRecs and Beta Request
A friend of mine recently lured me into watching Dark Angel.
I found it to be of the yay! I mean, it's sci-fi and post apocalyptic-y (which pretty much guarentees I won't hate it), the lead is a kick ass female with a no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners sort of attitude and a soft underbelly (one of my favorite archeotypes!), and we get Jensen-flavored eye candy in the form of Ben and then Alec (not to mention sexy-girl eyecandy in Max and O.C.), so I mean, really, what's not to like? It is one of those shows where the story that just keeps getting darker and darker and more painful to watch, which I have a hard time with because I get too invested in the characters, but they did do a good job of sticking in little things for me to laugh at along the way. I also found the end sort of abrupt and confusing, but I attribute that to them having to wrap things up quickly when it was canceled. So yeah, it has a few issues, but all in all I'm a fan. I give it two thumbs up.
Anyway, having been indoctrinated into the fandom, I immediately went in search of fanfic and found... well, nothing. Nada. Bupkiss. Okay, so that's not exactly true--fanfiction.net (as previously ranted about) certainly has a lot of DA stuff, but if there was anything much worth reading, I couldn't find it.
So, can anyone rec me some decent DA fic? Please? I'm not picky; I'll read any pairing (het, slash or gen) in just about any genre. So please, take pity on me and send some recs my way. I need my fix, goddammit!
In other news, I wrote pr0n! Heh heh. *looks around shiftly to see if the decency police have come for her yet* The overwhelming abundance of Max/Alec super-fluffy romance!sex on ff.net made me write 2000+ words of smutty heat!sex in sheer self defense. It's NC-17, and um... not fluffy. It's also my first attempt at PWP, so I'm kind of unsure about the quality, and I'm looking for someone to beta.
Porn snippet:
Max. You’re in heat.”
“I know.” She purrs, stalking towards him again.
Alec takes another step back, eyeing her nervously, “You don’t really want to do this, Max. How about you go take a nice cold shower, or… uh… or you could do some pushups, maybe?” He swallows hard, bringing one hand down to shield his groin, trying to hide his body’s reaction to her. “How about I give you a ride home? Huh, Maxie?” Alec’s words increase in speed and pitch as his back hits the wall. “I’ll take you home to O.C. and she can hit you or ice you down or whatever the hell you usually do when--” He breaks off when Max pushes his hand out of the way, palming him through his jeans. The length, the heat of him, burns into her skin, even through the thick material, making her groan. She watches his Adam’s apple bobs down then back up as he swallows again, her eyes are drawn to his throat; that, she decides, is the place she wants to lick first.
“Max,” he tries again, voice low and harsh.
“Yesss…” Max breathes, and she presses herself against him, sliding her body along his, loving the feel of him.
So, Anyone interested?
