What is it about Coming Clean these days...

[revid]

I just went back about 100 entries, which is about 10 days or so, looking for Billie Joe/Mike slash, which is about all I read these days. I kid you not, if you exclude drabbles and young!Billie/Mike (because I doubt anyone can ever improve upon al_teregoz's seminal work), there were all of about half a dozen Billie/Mike fics. Seriously.

What's up with that? When did everyone turn into a Billie/Tré 'shipper?

If I could write het, I'd write you an Billie/Audrey! (Maybe I'll try a drabble.)

And if I could write slash, I'd write a Billie/Mike. The thing is, even though most of it is mediocre, the good stuff is so good (I'm looking at you tasyfa I actually get discouraged, rather than inspired when I read it. Lame, I know.

Yeah, I could stare at that animation all day long too!

Thanks, dear. I didn't mean to sound like I was fishing for compliments. I mean, I know I can string sentences together reasonably well, but some people set the bar so high!

I agree with this one up here. ^

You can write slash. You can write het. (OBVIOUSLY - the first paragraph you added to our tag game the other day raised the level of the game tenfold with its quality, and you probably didn't even know it!) You simply need a muse to to take you where it may, my dear.

(And I know you weren't fishing for compliments, but I wanted to give some anyway. So there! ;P)

Awww, thanks hon! I appreciate the encouragement. That impromptu little smutfest was sure fun. I figured no one would mind me inviting myself in in the middle. I'm quite excited to see what you and Tas are coming up with.
