Finish-a-thon 2009 Post of Squee

[kerravonsen]

One thing I am missing about this year's sign-ups is the squee that people would do when they saw what people have signed up with. So, in the name of "Take Back The Glee" Year, I hereby open the Post of Squee.

Take a look (and come back to) the Full Author List, and post here about the story ideas that you are squeeful about.

ETA2: I have added links back to this post, so you can click on a link at the individual author page and it will post it here! (I love it when a plan comes together)

Re: Vana Tuivana

I agree that their relationship in the book is perfectly drawn as it is, and that moment of things *not* happening is just an amazing moment, and that it's important to value non-romantic relationships, which is one of the things tLHoD highlights.

....I just also think that some pairings are *made* for huddling-for-warmth pon-farr telepathy-porn to be written about them.

(I agree with vana_tuivana about all the other wonderful things you could do with this story in terms of wider themes - I also think that the way tLHoD, the story, thinks about sex and relationships is something that could use some deconstruction - and Le Guin herself wrote a pwp femmeslash short story set on Gethen that tried to fix some of those issues, but it could use more. But I also enjoy the old-fashioned slash tropes for their own sakes.)
