Oh my god...you found my show! *g*

Let me know if you're really getting into it, because my recs page has, like, a zillion DS recs.

No, God, no!!!

...

*Clicky*

Ooh. Shiny. I've only managed the beauty and wonder that is Fraser/Vecchio so far. I'm halfway through the first season and I am already so on board for them. (Makes me suspicious of this Kowalski chap--I want to like him, but I haven't met him yet. He could be this fandom's Draco. *Fears*)

I adore Fraser and Vecchio's dynamic as friends, but the slash thing isn't usually happening for me (although I can be convinced). There *are* good Fraser/Vecchio slash writers, but the vast majority seem to write Vecchio as a dirty uncle and Fraser as his slightly retarded ward (and yes, I've given that pairing a more than fair shot *G*)

However!

Vecchio gen? Fantastic. And the episodes are maybe (probably) better than the Fraser and Kowalski eps, although they're the pairing my heart belongs to.

Have you made it to the ep "Victoria's Secret" yet? If not...wow. Lucky you for still having that to see new.

I haven't even really dipped my toe into the fic waters on this--sad! (I could so see Fraser/Vecchio working. May have to write something--damnit, the stories are lining up.) Maybe I'll find some good stuff in the trawl.

No, I don't think I have yet! I'm only just finished with Disc 2. *Makes mental note of Ep title.* I'll watch out. Thanks!

Oh, you'd totally know the ep if you'd seen it. *g*

And honstly? I'd love you to write Fraser/Kowalski at some point, but the world could definiteley use some more decent Fraser/Vecchio.

Bah! Your corrections are no good here! (Except if they're on my stories, in which case, go ahead, because I can use all the help I can get with the little details.)

Hee!

Well...if you're ever in the beta market, I'm your gal. I'm *much* better at spotting other people's grammar/canon/continuity errors than I am at spotting my own. :)

Addendum: Fraser is hot. Mounties, in general, are hot. That is all.

Jump in, the water is great. I haven't even gotten to the Kowalski stuff... Oh, well. Didn't stop me from reading Trek slash (Oh, Spock!) won't stop me from reading this. :)

*Salutes, thanks with chocolates* Honestly, you guys rock. It's like--'Hey, anyone want to fill up my free time with sweaty Mounties for the next two weeks?' 'I do, I do!' Awesome. :)

Hey, cool! There is much goodness in dueSouth, as you're discovering.

A very short, very good little story is "Across" by AC Chapin. Her "Acharnement" is one of the most recced in the fandom, but I like this one too.
