Embrace your lameness -- A 12-step program for boyband slashers.

[bubosquared]

Step One: Admit they're cute.
Step Two: Admit they're hot.
Step Three: Pair them off in your head and run screaming from the idea.
Step Four: Get dragged back kicking and screaming.
Step Five: Hunt for fic. Even bad stuff works, because you don't know any better yet.
Step Six: Become disgusted with a lot of the bad fic.
Step Seven: Be attacked by plotbunnies.
Step Eight: Resist bunnies.
Step Nine: Scream as they attack even more.
Step Ten: Write!
Step Eleven: Realise you actually did write that, yes.
Step Twelve: Embrace the lameness!

I don't care what you say, I think Joey is cuddly and Chris is an elf. Lance, however, has weird-eye-syndrome, JC is a dork, and the Infant looks like he should be someone's prison whore.

No, you are *not* permitted to find them attractive if *I* don't find them attractive! I'll fight ya for it. ;-)

Pfshaw!

I have two brothers and I fight like a girl. I can beat you without even trying. ;)

Oh, yeah? Well, *I* can't even make a proper fist, so I *win* this girly-match! [folds arms, looking smug]

I'd like to see you make that fist with my teeth in your arm.

Oh, yeah? Well, *I'd* like to see *you* bite my arm with my boot in your teeth!

So *there.* Hmmph.

You know, I would be attempting to protect Melle if I weren't laughing so damn hard.

No wonder boyband-fandom is so stereotyped. Y'all fightin' like girls, sheesh. Get with it, yo. [/bad Justin imitation]

And once upon a time, I thought Lance had freaky-eye syndrome as well. Then I watched 'Making the Tour', and *that* excuse to hide behind went right out the window.

And yes, Vali, they do dress horribly. Their mothers should all be ashamed at what those boys wear. But it doesn't make them any less fun to slash. (And they don't wear stuff that's any worse than what Bon Jovi wore in the eighties.)

Look, there must be some kind of amino-acid mutation on one of my chromosomes or something, because I don't git it. But still, any excuse to girly-fight cannot be esteemed lightly. ;-)

Well, I never understood dS slash, either. Read some, liked some, didn't 'get' it. IDIC and all that, I suppose.

Eh, I'm sick of dS. LOL. Still gotta update that archive, though...grumble.
