Yeah, yahtzee63 is a great example! (Have you read her ALIAS fic? Lot of it is great, too.) I'm not sure my own is quite as good a plot as the kind of the Yahtzee did (way too much porn. Also, shippines.), but hey, I get a kick out of it.
I have to go to your crack dealer, it seems. Not much crack pops up on my flist. I started reading more of it when that Top 5 Recs comm geared up at the end of last year, and a lot of the recs seemed to be AUs, slave fic, etc...but I wasn't too enthralled with most of them. Heh. Enthralled.
Anyway, I have trouble approaching things with the, "this is just for fun" mentality. I always get worked up about it and want to make it meaningful, and often feel that the "meaningfulness" doesn't really jive with the premise. But sometimes that disconnect is what makes it interesting--like when you read a picture book and figure out the meaning of life, you know? Unexpected insight can sometimes make itself felt more.
I don't know if this fic is your cup of tea. I don't know if it's anyone's cuppa; I need to stop stressing, but I can't because my brain is gone.
