Re: Numbers

:P RPS is one of those things that I'm not able to get into. Not only do I have the usual squicks, but it also seems like far too much work (I don't want to have to research my "canon".

you're way ahead of me on that front. :)
All it took was that one person going "Gah, who could like that stuff, it's horrible, and wrong, and gross!" And the contrary side of me kicked up a fuss and made me as *why*. I mean, most people associate incest with parents/aunts/uncles/grandparents and children (and to tell you the truth, those do still squick me), or siblings and *children*. But all the incest fics I read are between consenting adults. Then the only objection you can really have are mutant babies, but since it's slash, that's not really a problem. Ok, there are still people personal gut reactions because they can't imagine doing anything with their siblings, but whatever. I have a grand justification (read as: long winded), but I'm not going to get into it now. :P
It's just one of those things that once I really thought about it, I was able to justify to myself why it's ok.

Charlie and Colby are awesome.
It's sooo true. I always find it weird that I don't come across more fic for them, since they have a lot of chemistry. Instead I've been seeing all this Don/Colby fic turning up and all I can think is o_O Wha? Don was jut being pissy to him in the Janus List, and hardly seemed to care afterwords...

I was afraid that Colby was really going to behave like the dumb jock he pretends to be when he first showed up
I don't think that was a real worry for me, but when you say that, all I can think of is Ford from SGA, how he was always so mean to the Dr.s on the show.
