matrixrefugeeAnd it's not even on the Pit of Voles, aka fanfiction.net, either.
I've been scrimmaging around, looking for "Shark" fanfics (recently got my hands on a gently used copy of the Season 1 box set), and I haven't found a whole lot, at least not on ff.n. Seems a lot of people are taking their fanfics to LJ and other journal sites (I don't blame them), plus I found a small archive of just "Shark" fanfics...
And there's a whole, thankfully small section for "slash". Gaaagh... At least James Woods's character is spared the indignity -- that and seeing Stark slashed with anyone is aneurysm-inducingly horrible; plus seeing any James Woods slash would be like seeing my crazy friend Mark slashed, since he looks like he ought to be JW's kid brother. But we have to endure Jessica Devlin/Madelaine Poe femslash. I don't see the pairing at all; please to be keeping your private fantasies where they belong: in private.
Or worse: Madelaine/Julie Stark slash. I think Sebastian would probably slash (in a completely different order) anyone, male or female, who laid a dishonorable hand on his daughter (wonder if that's how her loser-drunk boyfriend disappeared from the series, aside from him being swallowed up by the writers' strike...). Especially since she's underage, though I'm hazy about the age of consent laws in California. Hell, would Sebastian really care about age of consent laws, if his daughter was involved (or anyone's daughter, since underneath his narcissicism, there really is a moral side to him...)? He'd find a way to make the "indecent congress with a minor" charges stick even if he had to use spit and/or used chewing gum.
I'm staying away from the "romance" section: probably wall-to-wall Stark/Devlin smut, anyway, and while I think James Woods is hot, despite being an older guy... I don't want to think about anything beyond a PG-13 rating involving him.
This is what I get for testing the waters to see how much of an audience there is for "Shark" fanfics...
