rarewomen, wiscon, and accidentally falling into decade old fandoms.

1). For rarewomen this year, I wrote "Klytemnestra, in Fragments" for yetanothermask. I have been eyeing her prompts for years and always meant to write her treats, because of how many lit fandoms we share, but my procrastination almost always means that I have time to just write my own assignment. But the universe aligned this year to match us ( Read more... )

I mean, I kind of knew that it was leading towards bad things, but it was such VAGUE fandom osmosis knowledge that it didn't really even come to mind until it was like 'OH, fuck, I am actually unhealthly obsessed, WHAT DO I NEED TO WORRY ABOUT.' But, alas, by then, it was WAY TOO LATE.

BUT MORE SERIOUSLY. That is awesome that you love Elizabeth. I have gotten to the point where someone will talk about SGA and say something stupid about Elizabeth, and I'm like "OH, OK, I don't have to pay attention to you anymore, BUT SHUT UP ANYWAY la la lala" um. Because Elizabeth is amazing and I can't help my love for her.

Which isn't really serious, is it? idek.

OMG. Do you need fic recs (that would require me to remember Elizabeth fic, um, it's been a while)??

I mean, Lantis is such a hive of boyslash everywhere, it's hard to find the stuff. There is a least enough Sparky Elizabeth/John to, um, last a while? Not as much if you were into Sam/Jack, mind. But enough.

NO, LYSSIE, LOVING ELIZABETH WEIR IS LITERALLY THE MOST SERIOUS THING IN MY WORLD RIGHT NOW.

Although, given my thing for HBICs, and courtly love, was it EVER in doubt that I was going to fangirl Elizabeth and ship Elizabeth/John? It's only surprising that it took this long. I mean, LOOK, I finally find a ship with an actual fanbase, AND I AM TOO LATE BY ABOUT TEN YEARS. *dies*

I have been reading WAY TOO MUCH FANFIC. Really, I kind of needed to after I broke up with canon, so I could PURGE it out of my head. BUT! I am always up for recs!

Um, I checked to see how much fanfic there was, and on Ao3, it's like, 700 Elizabeth/John fics to John/Rodney's SEVEN FUCKING THOUSAND, I am not making these numbers up, sigh. /fandom bitterness

Also, I want to be surprised that anyone could possibly hate Elizabeth, but I am not surprised, because fandom.

I thought you might like her! Like, years ago, when Megan was watching, I think. But, uh, the show had already trodden on my heart too many times by then.

I am glad you are devouring fic. =D

(We also have sparktober every year. )

ELIZABETH WEIR IS THE BEST. SGA, alas, was not worthy of her. Or Teyla. Or Ronon. Or anyone, really, though it did have it's moments.

I have some fic bookmarked in various places.

John/Elizabeth

Cam/Elizabeth - Cam is on SG1 so I don't know if you know him.

Stargate fic, including Elizabeth pairings - I think these are all bookmarked by pairing? There's SG1 fic mixed in there as well.

fic bookmarks on AO3 - I think you can filter these by character, if you just want the Elizabeth fic. I think you can also filter by fandom if you want all of my SGA recs.

She is so awesome, I am literally unable to deal. Like, she doesn't even need guns. SHE HAS HER OWN MILITIA!

Also, you're awesome for saving and sharing those links. There are actually quite a few there that has managed to escape me.

I'm also up for coffee, dinner or just hanging out.
