OMG

[hmpf]

814 fics featuring Methos at AO3. And from what I can see at first glance, a *lot* of them actually look really interesting. There's new fic by Amand-r, even.

OMG WANT.

Duuude, I'm *so* overdue a dive into fic reading.

Stupid RL, always interfering... (I suppose I could replace my fic writing time with fic reading time, but somehow I can't bear *that* thought, not with Back to the Future so close to finishing, and other fics percolating in my brain. Arrrgh.)

IIRC, the ones from Amand-r are a few months old at least; they're just new to AO3.

Anything beyond 2005 is new to me.

That's what I mean when I say I'm overdue some fic reading... ;-)

actually great news. someone (ages and ages ago) told me that Amand-r passed away. now I have to go pounce her and give her huggles

What a horrible rumour!

Her husband died a few years ago, though. I suppose that may have been the seed of that rumour - somebody getting their facts mixed up there.

don't know, it was very specific. I asked him if he heard anything about anyone and he said that she was so distraught over her husband's death that... yeah it was crap

Haaahahahaaahah.

REPORTS OF MY DENISE ARE OVEREXAGGERATED.

HOW OFTEN DOES ONE GET YO SAY THAT?

Check the pairings tags too. Not everyone lists the characters. (trying to remember if I did, for my creaky old stuff)

Well, I was looking mostly for gen,

which tends not to be listed under pairings - although, as for everything, there are exceptions. :-)

Highlander is probably the fandom, out of all my fandoms, where I go for shippiness (of any sort) the least. Not that I'm particularly fond of that kind of thing in any of my fandoms (except, oddly, Harry Potter, but I barely count that as one of my fandoms - that was just one three-month fic reading spree in 2003 *g*). But Highlander definitely least of all.

When I do get around to my next big fic trawl, I will of course check the fandom categories themselves, rather than just search by tag. That's still the best way to find *everything* that might appeal to me, and AO3 isn't too big yet to make it utterly impossible. :-)

(I want to start that big trawl NOW, so badly... Can't, though. *sad*)
