I'M BURNIN INSIDE TO TOUCH YOU, BABY!!!!

Goodness I love Johnny Depp (Crybaby is on Oxygen right now...heavily censored...fucking Oprah. Though seriously, is there anything more ridiculous, or fucking hot, than Johnny Depp warning Allison that "orphans have special needs"?)

Quick note of importance. My apologies for freakout of the other day. I am good now. I am just...surprised is all. That people like my crappy writing. It amazes me. From now on though I shall direct all praise to Pooky, as she is really the one who made me write it.

Also...so far my biography of Marlowe from the library is so boring. I mean...I don't know what I was expecting-- like a Cambridge dorm room under the covers snuggle fest and handjob I guess.

That would be hot. Totally hot. Sexy and brilliant but poor undergrad and his equally poor bedmate shagging to pass the time, all the while Marlowe is in love with some snotty as hell rich kid who doesn't appreciate his education, and they hate each other, but stare at each other with a furious, panting kind of want, that just leaves Marlowe wound up and bitter and frustrated, screwing his roommate desperately. And it turns out his roommate is in love with him, worships him, but he doesn't know it. And...and...this would never ever happen but a girl can dream.

I feel like Pir8fancier. All it needs now is a super goth and intimidating professor with a preference for same snotty rich kid but a watchful eye on that troublesome Marlowe. Considering Marlowe was the only surviving son in his family, I guess that does make him The Boy Who Lived.

I would give such a story....3 dicks I think. Maybe 4 if the prof gets involved.

The worst I would feel upon hearing someone had written fanfic for my work without my consent (Pooky and I discussed this one night) is weirded out that they would do it at all.

There are some authors who have specifically asked that people NOT fanfic their work. Anne Rice for one. Fanfiction.net will not post stories based on authors who have demanded not to have their boys played with.

You know, I think this is less of a moral issue using a movie (say, POTC) to spin a fantasy about because a movie is primarily a visual medium. Also the actors are playing parts, right? I mean, if we have Jack Sparrow sucking commodore cock, then it's not Johnny Depp sucking off Jack Dav, now is it? (Well, in my twisted imagination it could be, but let's not go there just yet).

But writing about another writer's writing is a whole of a hell of a lot different, and if a writer that I'd written slash about came out and said, stop, cease, and desist, I think I'd have to honor that request as much as it would pain me to do so.

And then if I read it and they slashed like...Deniau and James...

I would have thought this nigh impossible except after reading the chapter after Rene going insane (I know, which one was that). Where Deniau and James are watching Rene and Thierry on deck after Rene'd been chopped up. There is a new comraderie between the two of them. A sort of respect that had been missing before the re-taking of Rene's ship. As James begins to understand Rene's motivations, he naturally, I think, begins to understand Deniau's. Of course, Deniau is far from stupid, and it seems to me that anyone even thinking about trifling with Rene's studly boytoy is asking for a swift knife in the gut. Asking in NEON! And James is Rene's plain and simple. Nope, it wouldn't work. Before that specific chapter, I'd think anything based on James/Deniau would be a very gruesome fic with non-con as the name of the game. Based on your characterization of them up until that point. Shudders.

At the very least they should ask your permission. Someone asked me persmission to do the other half of "Lettered," my fic that is entirely from Draco's POV, a series of letters Draco Malfoy wrote to Harry Potter. We never see Harry's answers, just Draco's letters. I wrote it in such a style that I thought you didn't need to see Harry's answers, but she asked me if I was ever going to do the other half. I said no and if she wanted to, go to town. I've never seen her rendition, so maybe she never did it, but I'm glad she asked me.

And my book? People do not write fanfiction about second-rate mystery novels.

Well I did have someone ask once to write more of my 'Covet' story. I said ok. She never did it either. Hmmm, now that would be the ultimate rareslash wouldn't it? Slash based on other author's slashfic...Oh my! The Controversy that would bring.

And James is Rene's plain and simple. Nope, it wouldn't work. Before that specific chapter, I'd think anything based on James/Deniau would be a very gruesome fic with non-con as the name of the game. Based on your characterization of them up until that point. Shudders. Such facts have never stopped a determined shipper, now have they? Heh heh. (Actually, Pooky and I non-con slash Etienne and Deniau all the time. Speaking of ew).

I think people might fic your work, the problem with rareslash in general is that you might make the pairing in your head, but you just feel that it will go unnoticed or no one will know the rare movie/book it came from if you wrote it and posted it. I was honestly shocked to discover Holmes/Watson slash (innocent me) as I thought I was the only one who made them such a tasty couple as I read the stories.
