dangermousieOh, the pain, the pain! I have just now stumbled across a fic where Max and Logan of Dark Angel have a temporary cure for the virus which prevents them from touching, so they...have immediate hot monkey sex? Nope, what they do is engage in songfic horror. Here is an exerpt:
“I heard this song recently, and it reminded me of what we have, and I wanted to share it with you, especially tonight.” Max replied mysteriously as the music filled the air...
[insert song lyrics]
“Who sings this?” Logan asked softly.
“Kelly Clarkson.” Max replied.
Logan nodded as he remembered, “The first American Idol. This is the song she sang after she won.”
“I think it describes us, this moment perfectly, don’t you?”
Logan listened to the words of the chorus before he replied, “Yeah, I’d have to agree.”
Ummm, the year is 2020, the characters are a genetically engineered soldier and a hacker revolutionary. And they still can't escape acting like emo 14 year olds. *sporks self*
Have I mentioned the part where Max rejoices in bringing "her man" beer? What is the fandom obsession with taking strong, in-charge women and turning them into someone who wants nothing more than to cook pot roast and iron shirts?
To wipe away the nasty:
