The weekend was all Querstrich meet, "Star Wars - Revenge of the Sith", and, predictably, "Stargate: Atlantis" (what else?). And of course talking about our plan for world domination. Really.

The meet consisted of more or less the usual suspects at

mamoru22's place, plus a few newcomers, in short there were

mamoru22,

xkatjafx,

mareen,

lovis,

trobadora,

kriski,

esda,

jassanja,

ten_chan,

i_am_schizo,

ridicully and, well, me *g*. Unfortunately,

_bettina_ and

temve couldn't come, and I missed

gwendolen,

moonilicious and

mabiana.

Since I'm too lazy and tired right now to type up what happened in detail, I'll simply cop out by linking to the others' lj entries here, here and here.

Mood: tired

I changed it immediately!!!1!ONE!!1

;-P

I remember starting to read the first one, and stopping because I couldn't stand the amount of Duncan bashing. This time, I've read it through, and while it certainly has something, I won't keep it on my hard drive. It's a tad bit too much OOC banter and weirdness.

The second one I read in its entirety some time ago (and saved it) -- it's weird, too, and Duncan is... well, let's just say he's far too accepting of a situation that would have had him up in arms and torn him apart much worse in the series.

By the way, I have 15,9 MB of HL fanfic on my hard drive, most of it from 1998. Should I transfer it to my USB stick and take it with me to our next meet in N.? You interested?

Gah! replied before I saw you deleted and reposted, so here we go again:

Neither of them is perfect, that's for sure. MarySue!Methos annoyed me more than the Duncan-bashing in the first one, which won't come as a surprise to you. It's not a keeper for me either, but I liked it well enough considering the fact that I never really came across much HL fic I liked enough to even finish reading.

The second one I really like - it's a very fascinating twist on the idea of a quickening taking someone over. It's creepy, but in a good way, and I just couldn't look away, even the third and fourth time I read it. You're right about Duncan of course, but then again it would have taken a much longer fic to work through all that.

I'd love it if you brought the fic with you! For some unknown reason (I really don't remember why) I deleted most of the HL fic I had at some point and would love to read some again. Thanks!
