Of Kaamelott - sorta - and Incest!
Oct. 30th, 2005 08:04 pmFirst - and before I kill you with my squee - GIP! Because a) Kaamelott owns me these days b) I suddenly discovered a certain love for text icons and c) that episode killed me with its awesomeness and it cracked me up like crazy.
Second SQUEE, peope, SQUEE! I?committed wrote fic today! Of the Special Hell persuasion: its original title was Special Hell Fic for I'm so clever and witty. It's not Sam/Dean though, sorry, but it's definitely Don/Charlie - boy is it ever! It's 2.390 words of Don/Charlie, even. Well, so far - I haven't sent it to the Beta Extraordinaire, yet. I need to sleep on it, then tomorrow I'll see if I still like what I wrote *fingers crossed*
But dude! I wrote a fic, wow *blink* As soon as I saw we had a new Numb3rs community, namely
numb3rsflashfic - which hi! Pimpity pimp, guys, it's a flash fic comm! With weekly challenges. For Numb3rs! Wheee - I told myself: "Self. You need to write something. Now!"
And I did *does the victory dance* The first challenge provoked an immediate response, which I didn't use in the end. Turns out too many people had the same lol But it was okay because my muses weren't put off and they gave me something else *loves Muses*
And there is smut! And Introspection and Angst. Again *shrug* See, I haven't the slightest problem with incest fics - obviously - it's not even a guilty pleasure for me, it's only pleasure. But even then, I never forget that the characters are brothers - which as incest goes? Is kinda the point - and that it's Taboo and Wrong. At least for us, now. Anyway, I don't forget and my characters don't forget either and as a result we have Angst and stuff.
Also, something funny? It's usually Don and Don only who ends up having Big Issues and who has a hard time accepting things. He's the one overtly angsting, whereas Charlie - though conflicted as well - usually goes with the flow. Maybe it's because of Don's Big Brother status? And come to think of it, isn't this a trend in the fandom? *ponders*
Anyway, I wrote a Numb3rs story this afternoon, yay! *is proud*

Date: 2005-10-30 10:42 pm (UTC)Yeah, Don is the one who seems to have the bigger issues in fic, and I'm not sure why. Not that I don't see why Don would, big brother, FBI agent, but I can't figure out why Charlie wouldn't, even though I write him that way, too. I wrote up a whole paragraph of maybes, and then realized they just really didn't make sense to explain why Charlie would have fewer issues. *g*
I'd like to think it's because Charlie's had more time to get used to it. He's adored Don since they were kids, looked up to him, couldn't say no to him, wanted to impress him, and one day he realized he was in love with him, that he's always been just a little bit in love with him, and he's gotten used to those feelings and used to hiding them, from their father, from Don himself, that it's almost a relief to have to stop hiding them from Don when Don finally sees, and now it's Don's turn to have to get used to it, but he will, 'cause Charlie's going to help him. *g*

I always saw Charlie as more of a if it feels good, do it kind of a guy, because he can't be bothered with stupid societies morals getting in the way, while poor Don gets left with all the angsting. And then they have sex and it's all good! ;)

*nods* I think you're right. And it's funny how pretty much everyone in the fandom sees Charlie and Don that way...
