Yeah, I have to admit that I've read my share of Kurtty fic. Poor Kurt, but poor Kitty too! Why do they write Kit as treating Kurt so poorly? In the comics after she and Kurt made amends, they became really good friends. I know the fic is based on Evo, but Evo Kitty doesn't seem like the ultra-mean type. Even though Evo Kurt is young, I don't think he would let himself be a door mat for any girl/woman. Oh well...

Yeah, the evo Kitty isn't really so mean. I have found her voice a bit abrasive though.
Fasheem, yeah I remember that bat-guy. I thought he was kinda funny. You gotta wonder how he could live like that, though. How in the world did he eat or got to the bathroom? Yeah, I can guess...very messily. I guess he's the EQ equivilent to the stinky Englishman.
Elwing, I came across the news of a new EQ story at Comic Connection. Yay!! So if the x-men let me down this Spring, I read new stuff about my other favorite elf to make up for that.
Here's the author's page at fanfiction: http://www.fanfiction.net/index.fic?...e&UserID=44542
The story I've read is Warped Realities. Just a warning , there's a lot of Gambit, but don't worry he doesn't get the herione. She chooses you-know-who http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
So that's what "Mary Sue" means. I kept seeing that term but couldn't figure it out. Oh well, I don't mind, being *ahem* a Mary Sue myself. >^_^<

I'll wallow with ya, Biscuit! I think everyone is guilty of a little Mary Sueism!
And Spatch, Mary Sue is a term that started in Star Trek fandom with Ensign Mary Sue who is perfect, talented, beautiful saves the Enterprise and gets all the guys. It has leaked over into all fandom and is basically a self-insertion fantasy for the writer. They can be great fun to write and some of the better ones are great reads. I must admit to an addiction to Mary Sue silly fics!
Yup, Sheemie, it's OTL. Mainly I do a lot of deleting on there, but there are a couple ongoing Kurt stories now, a few one-parters and a 23-part(!) Excalibur story that're really good. There are some great general X-Men stories on there now too, like "Marvels, Maggie" and "Half-Lit World."

I knew all those reviews would come back to haunt me! But I'm getting better. I saw a story with a summary that went something like, "More Kurtty mush! Hope you aren't all getting tired of this!!" and I ignored it! Sure, I was tempted to skip the story altogether and just write a review ("Yes! Actually, it is getting a bit tiresome!") but I managed to restrain myself. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif
Thanks, Spatch. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif But you forgot to mention that oftentimes in the Kurtty fics, Kitty loved him all along. She was just in denial! Of course! It all makes perfect sense now! She thinks he's cute but she still hates him (Why?) and treats him (and everyone else) like crap! But then, the terrible threat to Kurt's life (Huh?) causes her to realize she loves him! And admit she loves him! And everyone's happy, especially all the other characters who don't have to put up with Kitty's "moods" now that she's spending all her time with Kurt.
I always feel so bad for Kurt at the end. I think of the life ahead of him, Kitty whining on dates, Kitty whining at the wedding, Kitty whining about everything... and what about the children? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Slarti, do you mean OTL? I used to be on that list but I quit after about six months of no Kurt. I'd go into my Yahoo! mail every day, use the handy search option and come up with nothing. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/frown.gif I should have just stuck with it.
I'm on a bunch of lists for Evo fic. Some of it is really good. One great new author is Vi Rath, who has written quite a few cute little stories and a couple longer ones... I can't remember the site they're on.
Another thing about the Evo fics is they seem to be packed with Mary Sues. *cough*Chaya*cough* She is strong and independant! She has so many guys after her she doesn't know which to choose! She has amazing powers of everything! Ladies and gentlemen I present to you... Mary Sue!
I'm intoxicated by my verbosity. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
You mean you couldn't get though my fic? Why not? With Mary Sues it depends on the writer and how good they are with words and with pulling you into their story. I've read some that are good and made me go "Man, that was cool!" and some that made me go "Oh god, I gotta stop, I can't take this any more."
that's so wierd, moonbean, I just can't seem to get on your site.
Anyway, I found the fanfic, but I couldn't really get trough it. *grins all night anyway*.
So that's a Meary Sue fic? Glad somebody explaied it. Hate those! Mostly poorly written egotrips...Grr. One of the reasons why I usually avoid fanfics.

Your fic was exellent moonbeam (me and my big mouth!) but it's the blatant self-insertion ones that annoy me. Oh well.
I just found one that really cracked me up by the way. I don't know why, but I laughed out loud. http://www.fanfiction.net/index.fic?...d&storyid=8453 hehe http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif Pikachu is in it, among others...

http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/biggrin.gif! You don't know why you were laughing, Elwing? I'll tell you why... it's funny!
Although saying it was the best Nightie-fic you'd ever read was a bit much. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
