Long ago, like maybe a month or two ago, someone on their LJ (or comm) issued a story challenge, where we were to pick from any number of odd and interesting pairings. I said I might write something, found a pairing (or two) that really appealed, and have stories that would fit the parameters. It was a multifandom challenge and I was sure I saved both the URL and notes on it, but now I can't find either.

Can anybody point me to the challenge?

Oh you clever person, I think that was it. Yes! I have at least two eligible stories almost ready for posting, that fit the criteria of this challenge.

Mille fois merci.

I'd be grinning and whistling now, except I can't whistle.

Thank you!

I dare you to read mine... ;)

Oh, and I can't whistle either.

I would be happy to read yours. What's the URL and who did you slash Jack with? With that man there is no limit to the possibilities....

There was another multifandom slash challenge that I was thinking of too, I think I might have been confusing it with this one... it was in a community that wasn't just for Doctor Who or Captain Jack but had all sorts of other unrelated fandoms - the "lets slash Lex Luthor with John Sheppard" sort of thing. Can't find it now, though. I'll continue looking.

Meanwhile, this is a start.

http://cupati.livejournal.com/4382.htm , someone who I can only refer to as Ms Harkness, because you are indeed correct.

Uh-huh. Wonderful fandom, this.

The thing about Captain Jack Harkness is that you can slash him with practically anyone - any time, any where.

He's like Methos that way.

Oh, how cool! Where was that? Do you still have the URL?

I wanna say [livejournal.com profile] janedavitt... It was kinda long ago.

Thanks; I'll do some snooping around and see if I can find it. Thanks for the tip.

Seems that Ethan Rayne is another character who gets slashed with a wide range of people.

And just today I told a newbie, "no, Ethan Rayne is not really a slut, not quite" ;)

Well, not all slash-conducive characters are sluts, but I'm not sure how you make the distinction... Why do you say Ethan Rayne isn't quite a slut?

I'd say Captain Jack Harkness is a canonical slut and proud of it, though I'm not sure how's he's portrayed in "Torchwood" yet.

Methos is not a slut, though he can be slutty. He's something else but I'm not sure what the word would be. Opportunistic? No, that isnt quite right. Adaptable, maybe.

He told me to, quite indignantly ;)

Methos is not a slut, imo, because he's old enough to understand what sex is, and isn't all WHEEEE about it like some people are. Not to say he doesn't enjoy it or seeks it, but he's a lot more.. practical, and sensible, about it.

Ah, well, that clinches it, then. The man's a slut!

Yeah, I agree about Methos. The word I was thinking was 'pragmatic'.

He's... open minded.. and sociable.

Good things, all.
