kyuuketsukirui (which is John/Rodney, Adult, and 5800 words) and its sequel Ring of Fire (Nails Driven Through the Steel) by busaikko (which is also John/Rodney, Adult, and 5700 words). Yes, I know this post comes a couple days early, but I am unexpectedly all on my lonesome this weekend and in a much better position to host a discussion than on Monday when I must work until 9:00 pm.In addition to a discussion of the stories and how they interact with each other, I think these selections are also an excellent opportunity to examine the following:
1. The AU in general and how it functions in fandom
2. Collaboration
3. Extra-canonical sources of inspiration
4. Eleventy million things that are not occuring to me just now :)
Remember, authors, to let your flists know we're talking about you and let's have an excellent convo, comm.
