um, I probably shouldn't admit this so loudly.

It seems I have found myself with a lot of affection for a pairing that isn't written (yet?) (well it has, twice now I think), that is quite wrong and a little twisted, but in a way I love it. Said pairing is grown-up!Gracie/Steve. In different ways. In a 'she's always loved him' way, or in a 'he's always been part of the family' way, or in a 'she's gone for years for college and then she found a job on the mainland and now she's coming back and Steve is older but still gorgeous and she's a woman, now, he can't deny her that' way, I just. I find the idea fascinating. And hot, because grown-up!Grace is hot in my head. And Steve doesn't call her Gracie anymore when she's older and curvy and looks at him with defiance in her eyes, no, and he knows it's wrong because she's Grace but, but.

I don't know, you guys, I'm fucked in the head and all that.

I totally see the appeal. And if you're fucked for wanting to read it what am I for writing it? Or for that matter that Steve/Mary I wrote? Apparently I only like het in this fandom if it is at least a little (or in the Steve/Mary case a lot) fucked up.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

Yeah - I couldn't read Steve/Mary, but oh, WELL.

[theellibu.livejournal.com]

I just. Don't see that at all. Can't help it, it just seems a bit too wrong in my head.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

It's wrong in my head too, but I can't help it! Apparently my brain is managing to have it make sense...

[verasteine.livejournal.com]

It's fucked in the head, yes, but by god, this is fandom. We're all fucked in the head. Also, is Danny dead in that future? Because that would matter a lot to me on whether I could believe it.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

In the way things go in my head, Danny's not around, yeah. The clearest image I have of the two if after Danny's funeral, actually. Which is sad, but, yeah.

This is what I've missed most about Harry Potter fandom, all of the fucked up pairings! I don't think I could read it if she grew up with him the whole time, but if it's, like, Danny and Grace moved back to NJ when she was nine and she just thinks of him as her dad's old friend who is stupidly hot and way too old for her, then I am all over that shit. Well. Okay, I would probably read it regardless of the scenario, as long as she's an adult, but I think I would prefer the "dad's old friend" scenario vs. "he's basically my stepdad." I love cross-gen when it's done right.

[imaginarycircus.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I never wrote Kreacher/James... or Hagrid/Dobby... >_>

[tailoredshirt.livejournal.com]

LOL! I never wrote it, but I can admit to reading Harry/house elves, Harry/Hogwarts (that fic was awesome), and Padfoot/everyone. >.> And, you know, every messed up cross-gen or incest fic, although that almost goes without saying if you're in HP fandom.

I kind of want to read the Kreacher/James...

I don't think it's terribly graphic, but I think I'm afraid to read it. If you want graphic--I wrote Snape/Soup:

I have different scenarios, actually. One is, she goes away, back to the mainland, for college, and then she finds a job and stays there, and comes back from time to time - and it's weird and she doesn't see Steve often but every time she does it reminds her of how she wanted him when she was a teenager, and then Danny dies, and she comes back for the funeral, and Steve's stricken with grief, and so is she, and things happen.

And other scenario is that she goes back to Jersey and comes back when she's older and there they go. I like that one, but that one will definitely be thwarted when S2 starts...

[tailoredshirt.livejournal.com]

I am in favor of all of these situations, as long as Steve wasn't stricken with grief because he and Danny were in love. ;_; That would crush me and not in a good way.

I'm also in favor of a situation where they have to keep this hidden from Danny.

Bah, who cares, it could be an AU.

[imaginarycircus.livejournal.com]

As long as she's grown up I think it's awesome and could work. It's crossed my mind before too.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

Yeah, obviously she'd be grown up - I can't see it any other way.

[imaginarycircus.livejournal.com]

Like tailoredshirt the HP fandom kind of broke me. I wrote and read so much brother/sister and brother/brother and even some parent/child incest... That nothing phases me. But yeah only adult Grace in this fandom, yes.

[mercyisme.livejournal.com]

After Supernatural fandom, wrong is really relative. I can't believe some of the stuff I've read, so Steve/Grace doesn't faze me in the least, not even if he is her stepdad (Grace has to be grown up, though). I can understand if people have a problem with it, but I don't see any shame in it - there are worse things being written than two consenting people getting it on.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

I've only stayed in a very secluded corner of the SPN fandom so you know - my fandom prior to H50 was really not the kind to dabble into weird pairings. But yeah, Grace as an adult, and Steve, I don't know, I just like it.

[mercyisme.livejournal.com]

With SPN limited exposure is probably the way to go, at least your risk of encountering the batshit crazy is lower that way.

All my fandoms (except one) before H50 were full of brothers and/or military. *facepalm* (Troy, LOTR, Blackhawk Down; Alias being the exception) I don't even know...

[bandbfan.livejournal.com]

Well if you are fucked then so am I b/c I could really love reading about this scenario!
Glad I am not the only one!

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

I'm probably never going to write it, but I like the idea!

[bandbfan.livejournal.com]

Oh I wish you would, I know you would do a wonderful job

[tailoredshirt.livejournal.com]

lol

[willow-fae-20.livejournal.com]

I could totally get behind the idea of Steve/Grace. She totally superhero-worshiped him at 8 and 9. And he was her first crush at 13. So I can see her coming back to the Island at 22 after a string of failed relationships (because she had ridiculous standards that almost no one could live up to) and realising: 'Holy shit, I've been measuring every boyfriend against Steve. No wonder that didn't go well.'


I know the icon totally doesn't go with what I'm saying, but it's my only Steve/Grace icon.

[delicatale.livejournal.com]

See, this, exactly, yes!

[megaranight.livejournal.com]

I trust you to write something delicate and steamy at the same time, with no wicked undermeanings. It won't be worst than all the horrible fics :-) we write about Steve and Danny.

It wouldn't be a first, the man who saw a little girl, liked her then when she's back, years later, she's a beautiful young woman, and he falls in love. Think to "Sabrina" for instance.

That would be fun to read a fic where they fall in love, start a relationship and have to hide from Danny who still sees Grace as his baby.
