Site updated March 30, 2009: New SGA Story: The List
Thanks to FaithsQueen for the luscious MSP banner at the top of the website. You rock, my dear!
Stupidity R Us: Mice has taken the Fanfic 100 challenge for Stargate Atlantis, with Rodney and Carson as characters. This challenge is to write 100 stories about the chosen characters in response to a series of prompts. People from all kinds of fandoms are signing up for the challenge. To see what else is out there, check out the Big Damned Table!
Hi, I'm Mice. Welcome to my Hole in the Wall. It's not much to speak of,
but I've got a hell of a lot of cheese -- Fic! I mean Fic! -- here. Lots of
slashy goodness, so if you're under 18 or don't like boys with boys, you
should turn tail and leave right now. If you're offended and you bitch at
me, it's your problem, not mine.
About Mice:
Mice is a Sexy Senior Citizen who happens to like guys. Especially young,
sexy guys with young, sexy guys. He watches smutty videos that aren't his,
writes smutty stories, and attempts to get dates with young, sexy guys. He
hasn't had much success with the getting dates thing, which is why he
writes smutty stories and watches smutty videos that aren't his. A retired
iconoclast and rabble rouser, he lives in the Washington, DC area.
Mice was abandoned as an infant at an ice station in Antarctica and raised
by a flock of noble Emperor Penguins. These gentle, flightless giants of
the ice treated him as their own son, teaching him the ways of the deep,
wild sea. When he was finally rescued by a team of Russian geologists, he
was held for study, then helped to escape by friendly American scientists,
who also wanted to hold him for study. When Mice learned to talk, he
expressed a distinct preference for herring, and a deep-seated fear of
walruses. To this day, their shining ivory tusks make him shudder from his
bones. Mice can be picked out of a crowd on a normal day by his insistence
on wearing a tuxedo at all times.
Mice was raised in a Buddhist monastery in northern India, where he
developed a fondness for bald men and chanting in Sanskrit. This goes a
long way to explain his fetish for A.D. Walter Skinner, Captain Jean-Luc
Picard, and villainous magnate Lex Luthor, but does nothing to hint at the
reasons he mutters to himself in Hopi when nervous. He claims to have once
seen the ghost of Walt Whitman. Others insist Mice was mistaken, and it was
actually the ghost of Charles Darwin.
Mice is actually Hillary Rodham Clinton in a very convincing disguise.
Mice is actually Sir Edmund Hillary in a very convincing disguise.
Some of this might be true on alternate Thursdays. Maybe. Except the
walruses. That's all true.
The entire Moments Sacred and Profane series won the 2007 DiversiFICation Award for Best Beckett/McKay Drama! A huge thanks to my readers who nominated the story!
