So, meanwhile, in between applying for the job of Humourous Astrologer (thanks, shrift, christhetoken), fighting with this computer and trying to write a pilot about space--

In between being sucked into prillalar's pit of Drabbling--

I've accidentally started reading Jurassic Park III slash.

When I came out of this movie, lo those many years ago, I said to the Internet, I said, Jurassic Park III is the slashiest movie I've seen this year, but even then, I didn't really think there was anyone out there who'd take the bait, anyone out there who legitimately thought this thing was a fandom. Huh. Shows to go me.

The Alan/Billy slash -- because I'm pretty sure this fandom doesn't need another pairing -- is where it's at, and while a lot of it is drek, some of it is highly readable, so I figured I'd share.

Cori Lannam's stuff is best, I recommend Third Time Under [39k, NC-17] for good old fashioned First Time and feelin' the love. Her shorter piece, Lucky Strap ain't half bad either, though you need to care a little more about this Billy character than I do for it to resonate.

Jen Faulkner's slash is highly tasty too, with 110 in the Shade for some NC-17 PWP at the ol' swimmin' hole, or You Won't Fall, which is a solid R with flashbacks and old-school UST and angst.

Nix's All a Matter of Impulse is solidly mediocre but has lube; Elfin's Development is also just average but has some fair First Time smut going on.


And then there's Sithkitten, with Once Bitten, which I haven't read yet but which is 162k (and then continues as a series!) so that's always promising, and Sithkitten's how I got here in the first place.

She wrote three Jeremiah slash stories, Jeremiah/Markus, even, which are incredibly average but lengthy and meaty, and have the honor of being the first (and before killabeez, the only) J/M stories on the internet. So I'm fairly certain I'll plow through her JP3 fic, find them average and satisfying, and fill that jones and go on to live another day.

I post this here on the off-chance it'll be interesting to any of you, on the even off-er chance some among you will write Alan/Billy for me, and as a general PSA to alert the fannish community to the fact that JP3 is among the slashiest movies ever.

Bedtime!

Ahhh, I actually rented it and watched it twice, goggling at the slash, wondering what happened. The first movie, all about the dinosaurs, as I was quite young and the entire family was struck by dinosaur fever - like many other families at the time, I'm sure. The second movie, waste of time and I thought a third part would be about as good as, say, Highlander III. Imagine my surprise. There's this music vid for it that I've watched more times than is strictly healthy. Naturally I cannot remember where I got it from, but, uh, it's good.

This is where I'm struck by a sudden sinking feeling and turn around to behold my humble DVD library. Oh dear. It's there. I completely forgot. Theirloveissojurassic!
