Date: 2012-08-28 07:14 am (UTC)It was because of people talking about it I downloaded season one in the first place, and then I didn't watch for ages. Meanwhile people kept talking and eventually I cracked and thought, okay, I'm going to watch. And really enjoyed the show when I did.

Date: 2012-08-28 09:45 am (UTC)It was Paris/Torres from Voyager. I was a huge P/T shipper, belonged to a mailing list and everything.
This was before I'd discovered slash but even so, while my Voyager ships expanded to Paris/Chakotay, Paris/Kim, I still loved Paris/Torres a whole lot.

Date: 2012-08-28 12:01 pm (UTC)*sits on hands until the urge to tell about another homeless story that includes hooker fic passes*
16 -- As it's you -- and me -- it's going to be Frank/Mikey.
Frank is the star of a travelling cookery show. In the show he travels around the US creating dishes in each new place. It's not a hugely successful show, Frank's no Jamie Oliver or Bobby Flay but he is starting to get noticed. So much so there's talk he's going to be invited on Iron Chef, which would be amazing!
The other four would be his support team. Bob on sound, Ray on camera, Gerard directing while Mikey does publicity, source ingredients etc. It's a job they all like, except as they're driving around the country in their Frank V US bus, Frank realises he's falling for Mikey.
Not that he's going to do anything about it. Starting something would be stupid when they're stuck together for months on end, plus, Mikey's never given any indication he wants more than to be Frank's best friend.
Needing distraction and unable to just go out and jam at the nearest dive, Frank cooks instead. BBQ on a makeshift grill at the side of the road. Cookies baked in the tiny bus oven. Fruit salads that he chops well into the night. Each time he tries to feed the stuff to Mikey, and sometimes he eats, sometimes he doesn't and sometimes Frank ends up sitting outside at night, eating a warm from the over cupcake and wondering what the fuck he's actually doing.

Date: 2012-09-18 01:38 am (UTC)Aww, maybe Mikeyway gets really nervous around Frank ('cause he's SO hot and awesome). So his stomach gets totally riot-y. It's not that he means to be cool and hot with Frank, it's just that, well, he doesn't want feel bleech-y after Frank feeds him his dishes.
I'd like to think that eventually Ray has a SRS BIZNESS conversation with Mikeyway (because Frank's sad to the point that the dishes aren't coming out right). Mikeyway tells Ray about his feelings for Frank. Ray talks to Gee (who talks to Frank).
Frank gets smallpox and Mikeyway's the only one who's been recently vaccinated. So he takes care of sick!Frank and, maybe, one night he tells Frank about how he feels (thinking that Frank's asleep only he ISN'T).
And then, there are mutual confessions and Frank/Mikekyway smooches when Frank's fever finally breaks.

I have glee about your story idea. I especially like the smooches. Those fit in perfectly.

Which I feel bad about as it contains a pairing you don't like so I know you haven't read. Just, I really like the world I created and think that I managed to balance the gsf aspect well, and managed to get Bob as part of that group in a believable way.

Date: 2012-08-29 06:05 am (UTC)That's easy. Arsenicjade.
I have a lot of writers that I love but Arsenic is the one who always writes what and who I love the most. While my emotional connection is bandom, and therefore I love her bandom stuff the most -- the Avengers stories she's posting have the same kick to me. When yet again she writes the character I love best in situations I love most.
She's got this way with words that's beautiful to me, and the themes of her stories are ones I love beyond measure. Her stuff can get very hurt heavy at times, but the balance never seems off because for all the hurt there's comfort, and that sense that the person who features in the story has a place to call home.
I find it incredibly hard to pick a story I love most from her as there are many I love like burning and none that I think are bad. But if pushed. Light To Burn All the Empires is special because she took a situation I enjoyed reading about added in Mikey being cared about always by his brother, band and friends, and created a believable threesome on top. She's magic. I'll forever believe that.
