Natural Habitat by Belatrix Carter

[executrix.livejournal.com]

Fandom: Blakes7
Pairing: Blake/Avon (not to mention Kerri/Roj...)
Site: It's number 0016 on the Blakes 7. The front page for the library database is
http://www.hermit.org/Blakes7/Library/SrchReq.cgi . You can also get a list of all the stories in the Library at http://www.hermit.org/Blakes7/Library/Lists.htm.

Why It Must Be Read: B7 canon should be VERY ashamed of itself for including an episode (Ultraworld) in which a group of aliens demand that crewmembers perform "The Human Bonding Ceremony" for their information.

However, gold has been panned out of dross by Belatrix, who posits that Blake and Avon find themselves captured by insect scientists whose very funding depends on producing a mating pair of humans. (Belatrix has been Belatrix since before there was a Potterverse, much less a Potterverse Belatrix.)

I'm sure you'll be touched and inspired by the ingenuity that the scientists show to preserve their grants. (B7 canon, however, is very tough on Grants.) WARNING: Don't read this while you're drinking coffee--fandom disclaims all liability for consequential damages to keyboards caused by spit takes.

Is it possible to direct link this fic? I find the search engine a little confusing (don't see where you'd enter 0016, for one). Thank you!!

Sorry for the confusion, but the direct links to Library stories are about 8000 characters long (which is why I did it that way). You don't exactly enter the story numbers. On the front page, you can use the interface to select story criteria, or use the drop-down box by author's name. If you go to http://www.hermit.org/Blakes7/Library/Lists.htm, you can pick among three lists: one sorted by author, one sorted by name of story, and one by index number.

Ah, you can actually solve that with a little html formatting:

[a href="http://incrediblylongaddress"]Name of Story[/a]

Where you replace [ marks with < marks.

Otherwise, I'm afraid people won't take the time to hunt the fic down, and I would prefer direct links just for uniformity's sake. Thank you!!
