Honestly, I think fic is just not a good medium for LOTS. I mean, the dialogue and plot is weak at best. What makes the show awesome is the pretty, the way the characters interact with each other, the slo-mo sword fights, etc. Those things are hard to capture in fic. However, in vids...these things can absolutely be shown. /fannish theory for the day.
btw, did you see the last ep? I really like the concept that God is a young girl, but I thought it went a little heavy on the exposition.
actually, I really enjoyed some early C/K fics that didn't shy away from Cara's f'ed up mord'sith practices and had her prance around Kahlan like the devious woman she is. Nowadays it's mostly "oh nooooes, Cara has feelings, WOE, what can she do?" which is nice as well, but...different, though it does follow her character's development on the show. I miss the early stuff!
I'm pretty sure I hold the title of Jaybee's most rabid fan, so whatever she writes, I'll read it. But how could you ever write a parody of LOTS that was more ridiculous than the show about a leather-wearing dominatrix, a crazy old man, a little boy with a personality like a puppy dog, and a sorceress with the power to make people her love slave? Hence, 'not actually a parody'. LOL.
