Some Excerpts

I started watching the "Starsky & Hutch" re-runs on TNT in early 1995, and e-mailed TNT to thank them for airing it. The guy there was absolutely great--put me in touch with a lady who published a fan newsletter, and fellow subscribers there started a chat list, of which I was one of the first three members. I met my fan buddy and beta, Virginia Call, on that list. I had a curiosity about slash, and she kindly loaned me a couple of zines. The rest is history. ;)

Not *total* either way, though I do prefer Blair on the bottom. I see them as equals, and I see it going both ways *at times*, but I think Jim likes to feel he's in charge, even if Blair actually is. ;) My personal theory is that in canon, Blair has been "influencing from the bottom" from outset--ostensibly, Jim's in charge, but it's extremely rare that Blair doesn't get his way. I think a sexual relationship would probably mirror the friendship/partnership. I also see Blair as having fewer issues with enjoying it both ways, and I think he likes to make Jim happy. :)

[I love] "Starsky & Hutch"--because the friendship/love is stunningly beautiful and expressed openly in canon (and the guys are stunningly beautiful, too <g>), and "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven", because while it's much more understated than my other fandoms, there is a moving emotional tie between the male leads (both of whom are very easy on the eyes). There are some wonderful looks and words between them.
