Dear Turlough,

I'm very sorry to have to admit this, but I've been cheating on you with Dean Winchester. I'm afraid his angsty carnival of manpain has become inexplicably compelling, despite being hilarious. Perhaps it is the fact that it comes in such a pretty box.

Please reassert your daddy issues for my consideration at the earliest opportunity. And maybe hit some demons and cry a bit.

Yours in deepest shame,
uktg xx

Seriously, I think I broke something in my head. A very large portion of my brain knows that Supernatural is sub-X-Files post-Buffy nonsense written by people who perhaps read a magazine once while stuck in a lift. And yet I am goofily involved enough to have watched quite a lot of it online, in tinyvision, with the audio out of sync and FRENCH SUBTITLES. Help? I've been kidnapped by a fictional character who likes cock rock and is really quite a lot of an arsehole. *is bewildered*

Should any of you be similarly unwell, don't spoilerise me: I've only seen up to 2x13 2x14 (OMG!) and I'm sure plenty of thrilling manpain is yet to come.

Oh, and just to share the trauma around:

This is really not helping my fic-drought. But it erases that nasty Daleky aftertaste quite well...

I cannot resist! I just had to watch another one and it was AWESOME! Except for the part where the gencder politics of it made me nearly climb under the table. And the fact that the whole thing was unspeakably lame and crass and ridiculous. YET I LOVED IT ANYWAY.

Don't worry, I'm not going to get all ridiculous about it (although I'm entertained by the idea that Firefly and SPN have any kind of logical crossover other than 'stuff what is on the telly'). For one thing, the fandom sounds like Hades. And I am fully aware that it is horseshit. But I am shallow and sometimes a pretty boy angsting is all I'm looking for, k?

God, I'm an addict. And the internet is my 24/7 dealer. :(

But but but that's how it BEGINS. And the time you spend watching SPN is time you don't spend writing Turlough being sexed up and watching Who!

Oh, sobs and sobs.


Yes, SPN fandom ate Firefly fandom. It is tragic.

Nonono! For I am hopeless with the fic writing at the moment anyway so this is merely rejuvenating my fannish squee in a sideways direction so it can return to Who fully refreshed and delighted! And I was able to produce Ben/Turlough picspam in the midst of subtitled Winchester-based viewing, so it cannot take me entirely away from Who even when the insanity is upon me.

Look, I'm just having a naughty affair with something that's beneath me, and will have a season finale in a couple of weeks. I'll soon crawl back to the One True Fandom all apologies, filled with guilt-induced fic and teary tales of how the other fandom was no good to me.

I BLAME RUSTY.
