I'm currently reading Vin-centric gen stories in the Mag7 fandom.

Someone please hand me a gun. Need ta shoot myself. IMMEDIATELY.
I'm evidently beyond all kind of first-aid.

<sound of hammer being cocked>
<despairing sigh>
BANG!

I think I have to join you, cause I've read a whole bunch of gen, not only Ezra-centric but simply seven-centric.
Why are the gen stories in that fandom so often better than the slash-stories? Weepy!Ezra, Girly!Vin, Über-Angry!Chris (somehow everyone seem to miss that that man actually smiles and has a sense of humor).

I want them like I seem them on the screen and not some charicature of the guys.

Anyway, every tried Meg Tipper? She writes some really good gen, great AUS too. Or Eleanor Tremayne, also pretty god if you like Heroic!Ezra with lots of suffering. Also very slashy, just not slash :-(

Al lot of the gen stories are really borderline slash. All that's missing is that final step which they don't take :-(

Hey, [livejournal.com profile] gwendolen, thanks so much for helping me out on that topic! Already wanted to ask you, since you'd mentioned reading M7 gen, too, but then, I was feeling too... ahem, guilty to try it... wanted to e-mail you and instead tumbled head over heels into this huge pile of fiction. ;-)

Will try the authors you mentioned above. And I can only wholeheartedly recommend Brigitta B and NotTasha; I'm still captured by their stories and nowhere near finished. Woe me! <g>

Guilty??? Might that have something to do with e-mails? .
Hm, you could make it up to me by betaing some of my M7-fics . Yeah, I'm writing M7 again. Right now mostly little ficlets about Ezra.

I'm defintely an Ezra-Girl .

NotTasha is great, you're right there. Her stories don't take much to turn into slash. Have you already read the series where Ezra helps Vin with his reading? Something with Andes, and another story has something with snakes.
It turns into Ezra/Ines (one of the few het-pairing I like) but also has a strong emotional connection between Ezra and Vin.

Hey, I'd love to beta your M7-ficlets! :-)))

And yeah, I loved Down the Amazon and Snake on the Loose/Snake in the Grass very much, too. Ezra hurt plus Chris regretting his actions... always a good mix! ;-)
But so far, I haven't been able to stomach a het pairing; I always grit my teeth when I have to suffer through a small Chris/Mary scene.

WANT CHRIS/EZRA!!!! <sob>

Me too!!!!!

Okay, I'll mail you the ficlets. One after the other. And yes, some of them will be Chris/Ezra.
How about Chris/Ezra/Vin??? You up for some threesomes?

Btw, have you read the stories from Macx and LaraBee? There you have lots of Chris/Ezra-goodiness.

Will read those ficlets tomorrow -- didn't go online tonight until an hour ago! :-) And I do need to get some sleep soon...

Threesomes are not exactly my favorites, sorry. Always thought that three people was one too many in bed.
As for Macx and LaraBee, I like their 'Mythological Beasts' storyline, whereas I'm not so fond of the vampiric one. But then, I guess we've all encountered way too many vampires in each and every fandom; it's the AU per se. Don't ask me why. And I try to stay away from fictional pets. Shooo! ;-)

Okay, waiting patiently. Also for these e-mails. What happened to Boromir?

I like the idea of threesomes, at least in the M7-fandom.

Vampires are always problematic .

Ah, yes, JMS' maxim: No kids, pets or cute computers

Ficlet's on its way back to you! :-)

JMS mentioned those three as a big no-no somewhere?! Really?! Guess that proves, once again, why I fell so hard for B5. <smirks> Sensible boy.
