Secret Santa slash story

butterflyI've been thinking about why I'm willing to sign up for the *nsync one and not the Buffy or Harry Potter ones.
The biggest reason is that *nsync is the only fandom where I've written outside of my otp. With Buffy, I've written non-shippy stories, but even then, they weren't about another couple. In *nsync, I've written every pairing. I've written some threesome stuff.
I'm much more laid-back when it comes to *nsync. Maybe it's the fandom vibe. Maybe it's because the five guys just have such great personalities. I don't know.
But everywhere else, I'm much more rabidly OTP.
And since I can't talk about my new fic, I'll yammer on about last year's for a while.
That fic was... a landmark fic for me. It was my coming out fic, the reason that I told my mom about my slashy sex writing tendencies. It was non-JuLa, which was a scary idea for me at the time. But most of all, it was about the *nsync guy that I was least attracted to: JC.
And I'm proud of it. It isn't terribly long, but it is the longest fic that I've completed. It made me all proud of myself for making the deadline. It was a challenge because I had to figure out how to get JC and Nick together and how to finish the story. It's not happy, which was a change from the sappy JuLa that I write much of the time. It has a line in the beginning that totally foreshadows the ending.
So, yeah. It was cool. I hope that I can have as much fun with it this year.
And look! My TV trading card icon is back! Whee!
