If it's just a stargate, then never mind. I already incorporated that technology.
If I ever owe you a favor, though, I'll give you one of the "mushroom top" control device spares I have lying around my lab. I've discovered that the red light thing in the center can be rigged to glow, which is great for christmas parties.

Forgive my ignorance Jeanne. An old-fashioned fanficcer such as myself isn't quite hip to all these new fangled complicated gender-bender terms <g>

Yep. A GW yaoi fanfic writer is someone who writes Gundam Wing yaoi (male homosexual) fanfic. GW yaoi is much more prevalent than BGC yuri (female homosexual) fanfic.

So, let me get this straight (no pun intended)... there was (almost) a riot over whether 2 male characters from Gundam Wing were homosexual or not?
<scratches head>
Now I wonder what I might have missed when I *did* make it to the Fanfic Panels at ACen...

Page i saw on the anipike was the 'anti pregnant Duo page' Where Duo gets an artifical womb implanted and totes a baby around so he and his yaoi lover can experiance parenthood.

I don't care whether it's cool or not - I still write about those kinds of relationships.
When I have time to write, that is.
Any month now, I'll get back to writing...

Most yaoi fans frown on the mpreg fics. The few who don't are the butt of constant jokes by the rest.
I am resisting the urge to turn "butt" into a raunchy pun.

No, the almost-riot was when someone in the audience said that "obviously" the GW boys were straight, and the 2 GW yaoi panelists almost went off, the rest of the panel groaned and put their heads in their hands, and the rest of the audience went into various forms disagreement with the 1st audience member or laughter or "ooh" and settled back to watch the fun.
GW yaoi usually assumes that all 5 GW boys are gay, or at least bi.
Actually, GW yaoi usually assumes that every male character in the series is gay, or at least bi.

Depends on who you're pairing up. Like pairing Leon with anyone.

Behave yourself, Stephenls.
I monitor these ng's from my little corner of the Multiverse just to keep tabs on the likes of you.
You go messing around with *any* of the Nenes and I'll make sure she/they reprogram your computer so that *every* link you follow will actually lead to a site with "/scat/" in the URL.

Ack!
Um, what about the Nenes that, thanks to the whole "infinite variety" thing, are actively wishing that someone exactly like me would show up using something exactly like my portal-generator? There's an infinite number of those too, you know.

Don't forget there's also an infinite number of Nenes who are waiting to kill anyone coming through such a portal. And an infinite number of Nenes who'd remove all those dodgy links from your computer. So I think you're safe. Unless you run into a homicidal Nene or twenty...

I'd just have to find one of the infinite Nenes fits my original description /and/ can remove the dodgy links.
