GREETINGS, CHILDREN

You should all be doing this now:



Because it's a chance to FIX EVERYTHING.

And yes, yes, I have already written Sam/Ainsley fic and asked for more and demanded that people write me Jackie/Hyde fic, because I AM LIKE THAT.


DO IT.


Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] anythingbutgrey for turning her misfortune into a fic-a-thon!

Hehhhhhhhh. I wrote ensemble fic, mostly, with a total self-insert which is why I never posted it with some Sam/Donna and I totally ship Josh/me. It was a lot of between the lines type stuff, post-ep or missing scenes, up through mid-season 5, at which point Donna ran off with Sam and it became wildly AU, lol.

Ha! It sounds like you had a lot of fun with it! I have similar self-inserts in my head, which I never end up writing down, but I think it's part of loving a fandom a whole whole lot.

I think it's also part of "OMG I want to work in the White House someday." I fanficced myself into my chosen career, since that was when I was deciding to go into politics. :)

And you really couldn't find better people to work with!

That's so cute!

And yeah--watching the show makes me kind of depressed because I just don't believe that most people who go into politics are as good of people as that cast was. Not that there aren't a lot of good people who do, it's just that most of them don't make it as far because corruption gets you further.

Haha, yeah, I vacillate wildly between inspiration and depression watching this show. I have met some people who are as dedicated and well-intentioned as these characters, but I've met plenty of people who are... not.
