Fun With Fanon by lyn (pg, just to be safe)
Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Author on LJ: Haven't been able to find any, help please?
Author Website: http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/tsstories.html (She also has a slash page, http://brothersinarmsfiction.com/tsslashstories.html)
Why this must be read:
As you can tell from the title, the fun in this story is identifying all the fanon cliches in this short piece. But lyn has taken those cliches--and after more than ten years of very prolific writing in the fandom, there are a lot--and made a coherent story of them. With smarm, even. (Wait, does smarm count as a cliche?) This is one of my favorite "guilty pleasure" fics, because wow. Making a story out of cliches is not as easy as it might seem. *G*
