Of fic and OTP and Mafalda.

Flist - I'm going to fire some of you! So last night I followed a link provided by aswanargent - and okay, I could have been watching Farscape instead of going clickety-click but I do have a good explanation, which I'll spare you because man, I'm already digressing right this second and this could turn into a novel before you even realise I had a point to make! - and I found myself - yes, I'm back to the original sentence, now - over at cesperanza's LJ where I decided to spend some time. So I'm going through her posts, minding her my own business when WAIT A MINUTE, what the hell is that? What? I'll tell you what - or else I wouldn't be writing this entry. That was a brand new Dead Zone story! And not any kind of DZ story, guys - which would have been beautiful in and of itself already btw, because, like, the DZ fandom? Doesn't exactly crawls under fics, you know *hugs scifiroots some for her own contribution* No, it was another Walt/Johnny - my second OTP in that series - and it was 200k long! I thought I was gonna cry.

Actually, I did think I was gonna cry because turns out it was also het - read, not in flashback but as part of the main storyline - and I'm afraid I'm quite single-minded as far as DZ threesome is concerned, ie I'm all for the Bruce/Johnny/Walt hotness but replace Bruce by Sarah and it doesn't have the same flavour. So when it's a sorta ménage à trois with Sarah, well, it just wasn't the same. I do like her character - and actually like her with Walt in canon - but fanon my Johnny only belong to a) Bruce, b) Walt or c) both. But anyway, the story was good, the sex was hot and there were all those DZ themes I enjoy so much, so it was okay ;-) But it still reminded me how much I like knowing beforehand what pairings the story will play with *nodnod*

Oh and a little meme I found amusing - blaired from wisdomeagle, I think:

1. Number One OTP that is truly THE ONE TRUE PAIRING - withstanding the test of time and fandom whoring: Alright, well I have to go with Jim/Blair here. I'm trying something new, ie really trying to answer the question and pick one OTP over the other - so I won't mention Jack/Daniel. See me not mentioning Jack/Daniel. Though no, to be honest, even though they're close - the almost-sitting-on-each-other's-lap kind - Jim/Blair is #1a.
2. Your OTP today: Jim/Blair
3. Baby’s first OTP: *scratches head* As in, the OTP that I started with? Duncan/Methos
4. That Rare Pairing that you Love: Bruce/Johnny or Walt/Johnny. What? I know I said I was trying something new and picking one answer instead of two and all. Well, I did. Try, I mean. Where were you when I answered #1?
5. Character you pair off with almost anyone: *thinks* Wesley for FPS and David Wenham for RPS.

And for honesty's sake, the meme originally had seven questions but I deleted #5 and #6 because I thought they were lame, I mean, they weren't fun.

And more Mafalda quotes for those who enjoyed them yesterday *g*

PS: I have tomorrow off! And then It's The Weekend. And then it's Bank Holiday - so that makes four, count 'em four days off work, wheee!
