Oh, as a B7 fan of old, I was thrilled to find new fanfic, and glad to rec it!

It ought not to make a difference, but it does. This being said, I recently came across an insightful comment by laurashapiro (to someone else's post, so I can't find it again right now) about gay writers versus slash writers and very different expectations/representations; it also made me think of Six Feet Under (written and produced by Alan Ball, who like RTD is openly gay), David and Keith and their relationship, which I love but which definitely far more resembles the relationships on QaF UK (or for that matter Jack/Ianto on the show) than the fannish conception of how a pairing out to be.
