When in despair... reach for the badfic!

I might also reach for the MST3K section on tv-links.co later. Not too much later, though, since I have work in the morning.

But I've been amusing myself by reading this "Hellsing" fic, as reccommended by Weaver, aka [livejournal.com profile] nightofcydonia, when I put out the challenge to find a "Hellsing" mpreg fic: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2847586/1/The_Way_to_an_Heir

Now, in all honesty, I can't decide if it's bad or not. It's fairly well-written, aside from grammatical glitches and spelling errors (English is, apparantly, not the author's first language, so I excuse those errors). But there is some OOC-ness -- specifically a romantic Alucard (the execution keeps conjuring images of David Boreanz as Angel in "Buffy the Vampire-Slayer; I try reading the story with Crispin Freeman's voice in mind, but it keeps sounding out of place) and plenty of Alucard/Integra romance, but it's not enough to make me sick -- it ties into the anime-verse, and since I'm more of a manga/OVA-verse person, I cut the anime-verse folks a lot more slack. I have to admit, it's got one of the most ...interesting sex scenes I've ever seen. It has to be read to be fully understood. And the pregnancy itself... cliches abound, but somehow it manages to remain true to it's wierd logic. I'm only on chapter 10 of... 16. We'll see if it's GAFF-worthy or not.
