(I - your icon. What is happening in your icon? there appears to be an octopus or squid flying through the air. I find that...entrancing.)

And, oops, sorry for the username error - this is what happens when I post late at night. But it's fixed now! Assuming I didn't introduce errors in the process of fixing it, which is totally possible, because, well, I was up pretty late last night. (I am part of an ongoing study to see if fandom can replace sleep. At least, that's the only explanation I can think of for my life that seems reasonable.)

And WORD on the this-is-why-fanfic-exists everything, because you can read one tiny Jack/Daniel that rips you apart because there is such a huge rich history that would take books and books to get into if it wasn't already known.

Yes! Precisely! And even books and books wouldn't necessarily get you to the same place, because, at least for me, the cumulative weight of lots of authors is greater than the cumulative weight of lots of canon. Fandom: it is necessary.
