Option Number Two, by Northlight (PG)

[anenko.livejournal.com]

Fandom: Big Wolf on Campus
Pairing: Merton/Tommy
Author on LJ: anenko
Author Website: Nonsensical
Why this must be read:

Tommy/Merton, pre-slash and silliness.

"Are you a genius or not?"

"Am I a genius or not?" Merton huffed, offended. "You wound me, Tommy. Of course I have another option, but I doubt you'll like it any better." Merton sighed and bit lightly at the edge of his thumb. "Werewolves 101, Tommy: what makes you wolf out?"

"The full moon," Tommy said promptly. Merton's rolling hands urged him to continue. "Pain. Fear. Anger. Lu--" Tommy faltered as Merton nodded, "--st." Tommy cleared his throat. "Merton, you're a guy," Tommy protested. "You're a good friend and all, but you aren't really my type." There: that was nice and diplomatic and soothed over a potentially awkward moment.

Or not, because Merton was talking again.

"Oh, please," Merton said, rolling his eyes. "You're easy, Tommy, and I haven't been your friend this long without picking up on a few of your sweet spots."

"I'm easy?" Tommy gaped.

Option Number Two

Mostly, though, this entry is meant to say good-bye. I’ve greatly enjoyed my time rec’ing Big Wolf on Campus, and talking to fans, new and old. I’m delighted that so many of you were willing to give this fandom a chance, and were kind enough to tell me when my pimping was working.

Thank you so much for your hard work this month. I'd already read all the fics you pimped, but it was nice to be reminded of some of my favorites, and really wonderful to see this obscure little fandom getting some well-deserved attention. Your picks were excellent, and hopefully you drew in some new fans.

Thank you! I've loved your recs, and I'm coming up with bizarre BWoC/*NSync x-over ideas. See what happens when an RPS popslasher gets intrested in FPS again? Strange things happen, man.

(Now if I could just watch the fucking show, things would be good).

It was a real pleasure.

So do I. BWoC fandom is more or less comatose at the moment--a few new fics are still appearing on the mailing list, but they are few and far between. I still have a bunch of Big Wolf snippets, but I haven't touched them in quite a while.

Hee! We know, at least, that both Lori and Tommy are really *very* fond of boybands. . . .

(Now if I could just watch the fucking show, things would be good).

I hope, if and when you get ahold of the tapes, you like the show as much as I do.
