More wing-fics, please?
Apr. 27th, 2008 05:34 pmSo I joined genrefinders and clicked the "wing-fics" tag and found two I have not yet read and went \o/ but my lust for wingfic knows no bounds.
As a bribe for more, I bring additions to the wingfic genre for your reading pleasure:
trinityofone's extremely slash, extremely (in spots) NC-17 rated trilogy:
Man Who Rose From Earth
Flux
The Rise and the Fall
So, other than those, can some kind soul please share where the rest of the wing!fic is hiding?

[rated PG, pairing = OT4-1, short. "Summary: In the crumbling capitol of an Ancient Empire, the sun sets on another lost day."]
Cerise's Caress by
cat_77
(author says it's crack; beta notes indicate it broke her brain...)
[Rated PG-13 for mild language, AU, Team, Crack; no word count, looks medium/short]
In Shades of Indigo and Violet at
out_there
"You're surprisingly mean for an overgrown butterfly." (Ancient device gives McKay butterfly wings)

In the light of day, when they're relatively safe, he knows it's just a fantasy he has - his own fallen angel. But sometimes, late at night, he wonders.

An Aesthetic Solitary Thing by
eliade

Written to the following "badfic" summary:
"When Rodney starts exhibiting strange symptoms, Dr. Beckett discovers something odd about his genetic makeup. Now Rodney must find a mate -- before his alien side chooses for him. Warnings: wingfic, tentacles (NC-17)."
(note: all the stories in that ficathon were much better than their summaries, of course)

[Rated PG, no pairing, John is listed as the character. 2744 words. "John's always been closer to ascension".]
Of Wings And Flying Things by crystalheaven
[author's note provides no summary, rating, length nor pairing. Not beta read. "like I'd subject my beta's to this thing" Appears to be short and crackish.]

Date: 2008-04-27 09:46 pm (UTC)I've got a crack fic one that might technically fit: Cerise's Caress (http://cat-77.livejournal.com/68146.html), but it's, er, a different kind of wing fic from standard.
Different is good!
