schmericaOkay, so do you ever get pulled out of stories by some small detail and then realize what's weirding you out is that the story does something that weirdly contradicts your own personal fanon? Because let me tell you, it makes you feel REALLY GODDAMN DUMB.
My example from tonight:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rhythmsextion just posted some very lovely priest!kinky F/K porn over at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
stop_drop_porn (which you should all go read, and give her feedback). And I'm reading it and enjoying it muchly, and then I come to this line:
Because Ray has never wanted to go to a confessional so badly in his life. And he isn't even fucking *Catholic*.
And then my brain goes, "But! Ray Kowalski IS Catholic!"
And then my brain goes, "Wait, they never actully say that in canon, I guess. The closest they come to religion is the 'Churches make me nervous'/human sacrifice thing in Say Amen."
And then my brain goes, "Yeah, but, but, but. It makes SENSE for him to be Catholic! And that's how I always think of him, so there!"
And then my brain goes, "Self, you realize that is the VERY DEFINITION OF FANON? Jeez. Dorkwad."
And then I went on and read the rest of the lovely story. The end.
Edited to add:

Also? OMG, yes, Jack'n'Sydney2Getha4Evah!!!111!! (But not in a sexy way.)
Seriously, I have SUCH the mighty love-on for the Jack-Sydney relationship. (And the whole SpyFamilyRobinson, for that matter, but especially Jack and Sydney. Jack just delivers such total roundhouse kicks to my buttons...it's all of a piece with being head over heels in love with Firefly's Simon and AtS's Wesley. He puts love first, above everything, and he would die or kill or compromise every other thing he believes in or values for the sake of the person he loves. Kills me ded every single time.)
