Quick Fic Rec

Anybody who hasn't done so yet, go read xparrot's Games of Chance.

It's... yeah. I left feedback that is about as eloquent as a brain-damaged slug, but I take solace in the fact that I can blame it on general story awesomeness. It takes about five of my favorite things in the universe and weaves them all together in gorgeous, breathless ways. I refuse to tell you what those five things are, because it's so much better if you figure them out for yourself, but I dare you to read this without racing your heart to the finish line.

(And while there is no pairing listed, my OTP little soul was not in any way unhappy. Just so you know. Plus, our team = love here. So, basically, it's very much like an episode, if they had the time and license to be this overwhelmingly cool.)

In short: go read this story right now, because it's brilliant and tense and her Rodney is fantastic.

Eee~! *blushes bright red* Really, I am so flattered you liked it so. I have a feeling your five favorite things are mine as well, because, yeah, that's why I wrote it, I adore all these sorts of things way too much.

And yes, I didn't list a pairing because I didn't really want to define it as slash or pre-slash or gen; really it could've been any (just because I didn't show them kissing didn't mean they weren't, soon as the narration faded out...this is kinda how I see the show now anyway. ^^;)

Really, really did, and do. Those are some perfectly awesome five things. *g*

because, yeah, that's why I wrote it

Hee. It'd be no fun to spend all your time playing in a sandbox you didn't like. Also, if I had a nickel for every story that got started just because I wanted to know what the heck happened and no one else was kind enough to read my mind and write it... *g*

just because I didn't show them kissing didn't mean they weren't

And really, the story doesn't need anything more. It's perfect as is, and whether or not they're locking lips is kind of irrelevant in the larger context, because the reader doesn't need the confirmation to know what they mean to each other. *happy sigh*

this is kinda how I see the show now anyway. ^^;)

Heh. Welome to the dark side. We really do have cookies, and it's so much more fun with the slash goggles on. :)
