I always seem drawn to the pairins that are rare, or, when I do find them, either badly-done, or the character I love best is written as a jerk or something. WOE! D:
I am bewildered sometimes at McCaffrey's inclusion of gay or bi characters in her works. She includes them, which is good; and they're normally good people, or are doing something important, etc, which is also good. But she writes them as...idk, bitchy, or issue-ridden, or just ~off, somehow, you know? o.0
I'd give a lot for a good blue-green, brown-green, bronze-green pairing that were both written as stable, interesting men, and an important part of the story. K'lon in "Moreta" came close, but we never got to see A'murray.
Over in AI, I've been badgering people to write me a ~male queenrider fic, and we did get a tiny ficlet in one of the kink memes that was excellent, as far as it went. K'ris, the character that accidentally Impressed a queen, got a lot of shit for it that made you just long to protect him and kick ass, lol. But it wasn't long,and it never got to the mating flight or any consequences! D:
Do you know how HARD it is to find good Scott-oriented X-Men fics? Most of the fics with him in them seem to be written by Wolverine fans, and even the writers who like him don't seem to know much more about him than we saw in the movies-not much canon info-and it annoys the heck out of me.
Fanfic can be so addictive, and it's difficult feeding the craving, isn't it? :D
