The Grandfather of all slash: Kirk/Spock makes the news

Newsweek attempts to answer the age old questions:

What the hell is Slash? and Where the hell did it come from?

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*

Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] romaine24 for the link!!! *twirls you*

Heh. No, you really don't want to see it with me because I am going with a whole bunch of old K/S fen and we are going to get thrown out of the theater. ;D I imagine there will be squee plus lots of complaining about things not being done according to canon! Star Trek canon is srs bsns. As opposed to Harry Potter canon which is merely a suggestion.
