hello one and all.

Spent today mostly watching CSI NY, and yesterday kimberly (a nerdfighter) introduced me to a csi wiki but then now I can't remember the url D: snap. Will search for it.

I know two characters! Gary is the head guy, like gil grissom, and Danny is the guy who has a real new york accent. That's all I know. Danny's colleague is his girlfriend or um Danny's girlfriend happens to be his colleague and I kind of not like this relationship because Danny's girlfriend (I can't remember her name!) cares a lot about him. And is a really, well, good girlfriend. It's so straight edge! No tension etc.

Okay it's ironic I'm talking about being straight edge in a show about law enforcement, but still. The Grissom/Sara pairing in CSI Las Vegas is so much more interesting! (is it canon? someone enlighten me) But of course no pairing can beat Snarry or Edward/ Jacob.

OMG the Edward/Jacob pairing is like the new snarry. Really! Someone should have a podcast on Edward and _____ pairings! Excluding Bella, of course. I mean other vampires are so hot (hotter than Bella) and there would be "I Would Like To Eat You" tension, you know?

My friend suggested that in Breaking Dawn, Bella would die in childbirth (FINALLY no more whining) and then Edward and Jacob would raise baby Renesmee together!!! Preferably Bella could die before she gets to name the baby, and then baby could have a name that is actually pronounceable.

Oh dear I hope I haven't turned away people who are not into slash. It's only the... 5th day of april and it isn't a good time for people to stop reading. Friend B who was overhearing our squee-filled conversation about edward/ jacob got a little peeved.

It was almost like this: (my imagination has filled in the cracks in my memory)

ME: I hate twilight. Why would I read its fanfiction!
FRIEND: Oh, but you haven't heard of Edward/Jacob.
ME: *squees* Forks is a lovely picturesque place for violent shagging, what with its windy beach and deep forests.
FRIEND: And on their honeymoon they would break more than just pillows...
ME: And the ways they could deal with the werewolves are hot/ vampires are cold thing...

[and we get carried away.]

People in real life think I'm weird after they learn that I like slash. They think that it's weird that anyone would like slash because it's so perverse. And then I learn not to mention Merlin and Queer as Folk and Snapecast again.
There's more to slash than just the shagging-- the best slash sometimes doesn't have sex at all, because the portrayal of love between the two characters is just so much more endearing, intricate and filled with conflict. It's these human elements of slash that makes good fics enjoyable to read, since sexy oneshots are a dime a dozen.

Just another day in the life of a harry-potter-obsessing, beatles-singing and spring-awakening-reciting nerdfighter.
