[The subject is O'Neill/Maybourne and why their slashiness has not resulted in more fic; prevailing sentiment is that they're not young/cute enough to get the slash following they deserve. Because, you know, people in their fifties totally never have sex.]

very_improbable: I think there should be a comm for characters who are too old for fandom to ship them properly
very_improbable: I'll finish that Frank/Cyril story sometime and post it there
doorrepairgirl: i think that's a very good idea
very_improbable: It could be called "Mature Content"
doorrepairgirl: haaaa

[LJ interests searching ensues]

very_improbable: Amazingly enough, it does not appear to exist
very_improbable: (I usually assume that if I've had an idea, LJ has a couple comms relating to it already, at least one of them for furries)

My first Old Dude OTP! Oh man.

Actually, for the benefit of the uninitiated and just because one can never revisit "Tunguska"/"Terma" too many times, I shall here reproduce the scene in question, which as you know I am NOT MAKING UP, from X-Files 4.10, "Terma" so everyone can see how goddamn gay it is. (Transcript from Inside the X (http://www.insidethex.co.uk/transcrp/scrp410.htm), though I have adjusted the punctuation slightly.)


WELL-MANICURED MAN’S FARM.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA
Night. A dark car pulls up in front of the house. The Cigarette Smoking Man steps out and climbs the steps to the porch where Well-Manicured Man is sitting, smoking a cigarette.

CSM: That’s a nasty habit. Bad for the health.

WELL-MANICURED MAN: (snuffs out cigarette with his shoe) Health is the least of my concerns at the moment.

CSM: Yes. (Lights cigarette.) According to reports, your...personal physician suffered a serious riding accident here on your property.

WMM: Dr. Charne-Sayre was murdered.

CSM: By whom?

WMM: If I knew, do you think I’d be standing here talking to you?

CSM: (smiling) Oh--you need me now. A man of my capabilities. Is that it?

WMM: This was a professional hit.

CSM: And you out here all alone...so vulnerable. ...Were you sleeping with her? Surely you wouldn’t be so foolish as to put the project at risk for the sake of your personal pleasures.

WMM: Find her killer!

CSM: Call off this Congressional investigation.

WMM: I can’t. But--Senator Sorenson is an honorable man. They are all honorable, these...honorable men. (WMM starts to walk away.)

CSM: I heard Mulder was captured in Tunguska. (WMM stops and turns around.) I hear now he’s escaped. Wake the Russian Bear and it may find we’ve stolen its honey.

and when i say honey

*happysigh* There's so much subtext in there, I don't know where to begin. Those episodes were good episodes.

Magneto/Charles Xavier OTP!!!

LOL sooooo true! Though I remember I was kind of relieved that there was no Formula 1 comm for furries... there *is* F1 slash, though... even Nascar slash!

Strangely enough, the GP2 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GP2_Series) does not enjoy that amount of popularity on LJ... even though because the GP2 is the main feeder series of Formula 1, the pilots are younger. What's up with the nice dashy bishounen? Lulz. I wonder how much of a fandom will this new GP2 Asia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GP2_Asia_Series) thing have in Japan. ^,^
