SWEEENEEEEEEEY!

Ahem. Anyone know what fanfic there is for The Sweeney out there?

Well I'm pretty sure there's some here but it'd be slash. It's not the easiest fandom to track down - nothing on Britslash - but either elfinessy or arjuna_lj might know.

Thanks for this (slash is definitely fine, I'm asking for a friend).

Normally I'd make some sort of skeptical comment there. Dammit. (And, thankyou! I was just about to email you back and say yes yes please ask your flist! You have saved me the shame.)

Isn't it awesome?

[altariel.livejournal.com]

LOL, yes, guaranteed "for a friend"! I knew the f'list could as ever provide.

The Sweeney is GREAT, I am going to make a post soon all about how wonderful it is. They had a spaghetti dinner together where John Thaw threw spaghetti at the wall to see if it was cooked! Then they got drunk and moodily bitched into their beers. Then, I assume, they made sweet sweet love. It didn't show that bit.

It didn't show that bit.

Except in our Branez.

Can you send your friend over to dv_squee and tell her that the police car just expanded and got very wet?

[katlinel.livejournal.com]

OK, I know nothing about Sweeney fic, but why are you not having any dinner? This seems utterly wrong and does bad things to my brain. I hope it is not because you have lurgy.

[toft-froggy.livejournal.com]

IT HAPPENED IN MY BRANE.

[altariel.livejournal.com]

Noes! Not bad things to your brane! I was having no dinner because it was too early. 1pm: stilton and white onion soup - yum!

Fantastic icon.

You know, I've never seen Drake's Venture. Bad fan.

[mraltariel.livejournal.com]

From Ep 1: "We're the Sweeney, and we haven't had our dinner."

Topped only by "Get your trousers on, son, you're nicked." from the same episode.

[mraltariel.livejournal.com]

Then how come I saw it too?!?

[katlinel.livejournal.com]

1pm: stilton and white onion soup - yum!

Oh good, my brane is soothed.

Fantastic icon.

Thank you. I am rather pleased with the icon myself, hence the GIP in my journal. *is smug*

I googled Tenko and quotations and found the Louise Jameson quote, and that was it. Just the right text for that icon.

(Edited to close italics properly.)

[katlinel.livejournal.com]

Ah, my lack of knowledge of 70s police drama is shameful but I am now enlightened.

Of course, it makes Gene Hunt's quote about 'avin 'oops even better.

[toft-froggy.livejournal.com]

OH NOES, INVOLUNTARY MIND MELD! Attacked by a fanfic cliche! Now I will find out that actually you are in love with John Sheppard. *points to icon*. But really, how could you not be?

[mraltariel.livejournal.com]

No, yeah, you're right. He's luvverly.

[hafren.livejournal.com]

Just got recced this

[altariel.livejournal.com]

Brilliant, thank you!
