Beta? Anyone? Bueller-?

I was challenged to write Het. Yes, a slasher writing het.

Wait, wait. It gets worse.

I was challenged to write Lorne/Heightmeyer.

Well. I have a story. Very brief.

NC-17 Lorne/Heightmeyer.

Any interest in betaing it? [livejournal.com profile] amothea has given it a once-over but feels it needs fresh eyes.

I'm here and have got nothing to do. I'd just like to know: How long is it? Do you like Heightmeyer or Lorne?

It's 2,400 words, about five pages per my settings in Word.

I love Lorne, so I wrote the story from his perspective. It has Sheppard as well, so that makes me happy.

I don't think I'm all that nice to Kate, but it's the male perspective on an awkward situation.

Cool, send it if you want me to give it a read, and let me know what you'd like to hear back from me.

Great! *pounces* What email should I send it to?

Comin' at ya.

Much as it pains me, I think het is the way to go with Lorne due to the vibe the canon character gives off. The only fic I've ever seen that convincingly used him otherwise was of the Ancient-sex-ray-made-them-do-it variety.

I agree. While a good slasher can come up with a situation or extended character development for anyone, Lorne gives off a total straight vibe.

Oh, please, if you want a second (third) set of eyes. My username at hotmail.

Okay, I have a lot of work to do from two betas who are scratching their heads over the problems in this story. At this point it's not working at all (largely because I don't like Kate I think). It should turn up in your in-box some time tomorrow.

Sounds good.

No, the icon choice is not a harbinger. Why do you ask?

chain, comma, yanked. ;->

If you want to have an entire fly set of eyes then you are always welcome :)

*eyes you*

Lorne/Heightmeyer ... what is the world coming to? :P

I was just thinking of you last night. This story is giving me a lot of trouble, largely because I so dislike Kate. What email can I send it to?

Either enname.mori at gmail, or to the yahoo address you used last time. Both will get it to me.

Think of the devil and he shall surely appear.. : P
