Original fiction....for when fandom gets so awful that you just can't take it anymore.
But, okay, seriously...this was just going to be a drive by post, but I discovered that apparently I have something to say.
I'm running out of fandoms. Guiding Light (which, really? Who in the hell ever thought I'd claim that as a fandom?) is going off the air in less than a month. Venice will supposedly be on in a few months, but depending on how they choose to deliver it, it'll probably be kind dicey whether I get my grubby little fingers on it or not.
Wanna hear something sad? I don't even know when new NCIS episodes start to air. Ziva still fascinates me as a character, but I think as much as I love Ziva/Abby, I'm about done with it as a pairing that I can't get enough of. The spoilers for the beginning of the new season aren't helping at all either.
NCIS: LA...well, ya'll have all heard about Louise Lombard, right? Yeah, I was really looking forward to having two female characters on a show that seemed to interact often and not primarily about men. But alas...not to be.
Grey's Anatomy I can kind of take it or leave it, but I don't write for it.
SGU sounds awful, to the point of wondering who the hell okay'd this crap. Sanctuary is fun, but again, not caring enough to know when it starts airing or write for it.
The Hollows...honestly, I think Guiding Light killed the Hollows for me. Say what you will about Olivia/Natalia- and there is a lot to say - but by goobies they are a canon pairing. All the Hollows negativity and author drama was bringing me down, even though I knew better than to hang around on her website because it drives me insane. But the though of having to wait five to seven more years to find out which way she's going to go with Rachel and Ivy and have the constant negative reinforcement that she's not going to get them together? Dude, I don't think I can take that. I can hardly take the long hard slogs like that when I know for sure there's a light at the end of that damn tunnel.
*sigh* So, yeah, that's my current disgust with fandoms in general.
I do have three work-in-progress fics that I do want to complete now that I've finished (writing, not posting) The End of Her World. Taking Chances, one unposted NCIS fic (which will finish![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fanfic100, finally, thank god!) and Let Sleeping Vamps Lie.

Is edginess what they're trying for there? I don't even get it. Argh. I know there's bigotry, hate and stupidity everywhere but in today's overly politically correct society, I honestly don't see how people manage to get by with some of this crap. And you know, it'd be different if they explored the emotionally and moral implications of what they're doing, but absolutely no one thinks that's gonna happen. It's just gonna be your typical "aliens/possesion made us do it" sex romp.
Sheesh. Apparently I have feelings about this. Who knew?

IDEK how anyone can justify doing this kind of storyline ("edgy" is the best explanation I can come up with). (Although, as you suggested, I do admit that it might be an interesting storyline if it was handled responsibly, but the chances of that are, like, nil.) It's so fricking offensive.
