BRITTA/SLATER FOR THE HBIC WIN!

 My hand to god I was just thinking how awesome Britta/Slater could be together and then I check my flist and behold:

I Don't Think We've Met by summerstorm 

"She doesn't know what the punchline would be, if this were actually a joke. She's not a jokes person. She's bad at them, she can accept that. She's not a crazy narcissist who can't admit her own flaws, and she's reevaluating her ability to be honest with herself since she started the community-college Britta equivalent of a catfight over a boy. Admitting she's bad at something is a good first step. Second step. Whatever. So, that's where reevaluation comes in. Self-analysis, and eradicating your own weaknesses, and admitting you can't make jokes, and cheap beer. All of those are good things."

This author nails Britta's voice, the way she's opinionated and indecisive and witty in a sardonic way, and Slater is deliciously arrogant and there is a scorching hot wall-make-out scene.

I got six and a half hours of miserable, nightmare-filled sleep last night, so instead of answering these two memes, I'm going to throw them at my flist, because I want to hear your answers.

fannish5 : List 5 works (where work could be a series, movie, book, episode, or even a character) that you feel are misunderstood, and why.

What series, movie, book, episode, or character do you think is misunderstood by the fandom? Tell tell.

Personally, Dollhouse (neither as good or as bad as people say) and Snape (for obvious reasons) are on my list.

And the current writer's block:
