you wear guilt like shackles on your feet

So, there was this Doctor Who/SG-1 crossover plotbunny offered on a list. And the stipulation was that it could "be slash or gen... whatever you want". Now, if I were handing out a plotbunny, my stipulation would have been "here. Make it anything you want." But, obviously, hetship isn't good enough for people. It must be slash or gen, or they just don't wanna hear about it.

This does, however, make me want to write a horribly hetshippy DW/SG-1 crossover.

Dr. Grace Holloway becomes the new specialist surgeon assigned to the SGC.... After all, she'd be perfect. She's already encountered the strange and paranormal.

(btw, there's a fairly decent one up on ff'net that's FourthDoc, and borrows Pyramids of Mars lexiconography...)

Hmmm.

From what I've come across 'gen' seems to include slash ust but god forbid it have any suggestion of het ust.

I actually left a group that was supposedly strictly 'gen only' because whilst I was told to keep my ship out of it in the same breath the mod was talking about how cute a couple Jack and Daniel would make.

It was less a case of 'no ship' as '*which* ship'.

But that's just my own bad fandom experience.
Of which we all have at least a dozen I'm sure. :)

Where as mostly I've run into the opposite. *shrug* It's damned annoying either way. Somewhere along the line, the environments in which I could mention working on fic and not have the first question be "What pairing?" got really, really scarce. :-/
