How Four Idjiots Got Baptized by Pat (PG-ish)
Hi! I'm ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zeldaophelia (though, I write in the M7 universe under the pen name Jenifer Davis) and I'll be driving the Crack Van for The Magnificent Seven one of this month's featured small fandoms. While I tend to be partial to JD (I'm a Dunne's Darlin' through and through), I am going to try to rec fic that feature each of the guys and the various adventures they get up to. Not to mention introduce all the different Alternate Universe Sandboxes we have to play in.
Fandom: THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN
Pairing: None
Author on LJ: Not as far as I know.
Author Website: N/A (her fic can be found at Blackraptor)
Why this must be read:
While The Magnificent Seven lend themselves to a number of Alternate Universes, we're going to start out this month with purely Old West (or the original series universe) fic. The boys tend to have a rather wicked sense of humor, and how better to demonstrate than with a story that will make you laugh yourself silly? This is a great fic for newcomers, it isn't an epic-novel length adventure, but a short introduction to the guys and the town and, well, boys being boys.
Plus, the warning speaks for itself:
Warning: They use some bad words. The chicken does too, but it doesn't translate well.
Excerpt from a Letter to Maude Standish:
Dear Mother
I want you to know that our little town is not entirely bereft of the benefits of civilization. Indeed, recently Messrs., Tanner, Wilmington, Dunne and I were baptized by total immersion by no less personage than Mr. Chris Larabee himself.
But you needn't worry, Mother. I promise you that your darlin' boy is still a businessman and a gentleman in the fullest sense of the word. Actually, Mr. Larabee would never have apprehended me if I hadn't been laughing so hard. You see, dear Mother, it happened like this...

I was just looking at the fandom overviews and *wishing* for more Mag 7 recs. It's nice to know that wishes can come true, even in icky ol' Feburary. It makes me hopeful for the rest of the month. :D
Boy,oh boy...
