amusing side note

[syredronning]

When reading GO stories, I stay really cold over P/Q - but give me three lines of Picard/Riker and I'm all hot and horny.

Sigh. Why I can never fall for the main slash pairings of a series? Would make things so much easier at times.

P/Q rarely, if ever, does anything for me, but Picard/Riker makes me vomit a little in my mouth. I did read one where Riker had an encounter with just some guy and that wasn't bad. *shrug*

The only reason I can empathize is b/c of the men in my icon *ggg* I had to invent that freaking fandom. *worships on watergal a little*

I am in such a D/V mood. I'm even thinking about it more than knitting. ;-)

And here I was beginning to think I was the only one that hated P/Q, but like the idea of Picard/Riker. Huh. ;) I haven't found a good Picard/Riker fic yet - read any good ones? I'll have to check out the GO stories, I guess.

I think a good timeline for a fic would be post-Best of Both Worlds - Picard is hurting and definitely in need of comfort and Riker has just proven himself to be a good captain, etc. Lots of good angst and h/c potential there. Plus Riker must have nightmares about Locutus and losing Picard on the bridge like that would make him feel guilty.

But P/Q? I can see Q wanting to explore possibilities maybe, but Picard lusting for Q just doesn't compute with me. *shrug*

You know, I used to like P/Q more than P/R, but I recently found out that I've changed my mind. *lol* I still like P/Q, but P/R is much better IMO. Just watch the first 40 minutes or so of "Gambit, Part I". OMG. Riker's all angry and pissed because someone killed his beloved Jean-Luc. ;)

P/Q is... well, I think Q really has a thing for Jean-Luc, but Jean-Luc would never allow himself to fall in love with Q. They're both very strong personalities and they'd argue all the time. I'm not sure if that's very enjoyable... *scratches head*

I also decided that, if I ever get to write some Trek slash again, I'll write P/R only. *grin*

Oh I know! I'm always into these strange tangential pairings that nobody every writes on, so I have to write them myself to get my fix (which is a slooow process since I'm so lazy XD), or spend hoursssss searching for them.

Picard/Riker is great (though of course you know how I love Riker/Wes, bwahaha)... my ex-girlfriend and I once scarred an online guy-friend of ours for life by roleplaying Picard/Riker in a group chat once. Good times.
