Mostly not about pegging

1) Last night in brooklinegirl's journal, I might have made a comment along the lines of "CKR should be fucked, and often, and by somebody who knows how."

Um. Mangling classic quotes for porn purposes = for the win? Maybe?

2) I am still thinking about kidfic an awful lot. Help me! Seriously, what is it about due South fandom? I know there's no other fandom I've been in where I actually want my OTP to get together and be together 4eva and be domestic and HAVE BABIES OMG. But, um, RayK and Fraser? I want them to be daddies. I can't help it. And I have heard many other people say the same exact thing -- usually kidfic isn't their thing, but in dS? Bwee. What the hell is that about, you guys?

(Hmm, I am still annoyed with myself for missing Dira's kidfic panel at Muskrat Jamboree. LAME, erica, LAME.)

I don't know if you guys know this, but Diefenbaker really, really likes babies. He is FIERCELY PROTECTIVE of random nobody-cares-about-the-damn-baby in A Cop, A Mountie and a Baby. (Fox, Dief LOVES BABIES. He likes to PROTECT THEM. It's VERY CUTE. *cough*)

Which is to say, I want you to imagine for a second what Dief would be like with FRASER's baby. Seriously. omg, what if something happened to Fraser and/or Ray and Dief had to TAKE CARE of the kid and protect him/her from the bad guys? Dief herding along tiny toddler or grade-schooler to safety!!! o. m. g.

Hi, I am pathetic and just melted my own heart. Um. I think I lost my point.

3) I really, really love this picture of Don McKellar and Daniel MacIvor. I'm just throwing that out there.

4) In conclusion, Fraser is wearing boots, suspenders, puffy pants and a wifebeater. Please indicate how he could be any hotter without actually being naked or engaged in kissing with another person. (AS ALWAYS, extra points for diagrams!)

I have an answer to that:

Unlike 85% of the slash pairings out there, Ray & Fraser would be good parents.

As an example: Fox Mulder & Alex Krychek? Justin & JC? Kirk & Spock?

Right.

Where Ray & Fraser are just looking for the excuse to settle into placid personal lives. Sure, there may be crime fighting. There may be adventure.

But at the end of the day they have jobs, responsibilities, insurance, and are stable and ready for a kid. Ray was married for a good 15 years. Fraser held the torch for a woman he sent to jail for a decade. They know commitment. Ray has cannonical interest in aquireing kids. Fraser is good with babies.

It's just so perfect. The question isn't "Why kidfic". With DS, the questions are more prosaic "Chicago or Canada?" "Is child due to ex-girlfriend or adopted?" "whose last name does it get"

I mean, it is impossible not to love kid fic for a show that is at its core incredibly domestic.

Okay, that is an incredibly good point. You're totally right, they ARE domestic. They just want a happily ever after and sit around doing their own lives. So it makes a weird sense for them in a way it doesn't for most people.

Exactly. For them, the natural next step is the whole settling down process. A kid? Fits right in.

It's a combination of age, personality, and the show set up.

Personally, I want to read about what happened when Turnbull married Donna Martin and they moved to California....
