I'm rather impressed at the accuracy of the article.

Where No Man Has Gone Before

*snort*

quote:
Some stories—including many tales centering around "pon farr," the overpowering Vulcan mating impulse introduced in the episode "Amok Time"—are almost unbelievably explicit, but most are primarily about the creation and maintenance of a romantic relationship.

I have this wicked desire to see what exactly makes something "unbelievably explicit". *g*

Hee! There's a fanfic out there that basically has that plot! Harry and Draco as journists who go undercover to a HP convension. It was surprisingly poignant.

I believe my sister might have use the term "unbelievably explicit" when she stumbled on a the Admin Series. *cough*

Oh God! That's when she 'stumbled' on my reading of "Virtual" isn't it!?! :D
