Welcome to Sentimental Journeys, a Boyband Slash (BBS) / Real Person Slash (RPS) site that is the secret vice of an otherwise respectable academic and writer.
Slash, of course, is that particular brand of fanfic that posits same-sex relationships between its characters. RPS - Real Person Slash - has as its characters the (usually manufactured and merchandised, unreal) public personae of, well, real people (you guessed).
For that reason, if you are underage under your local law, have moral qualms about same-sex relationships, or mistakenly thought you'd found a wholesome boyband fan site, scram. Git. Vamoose. Aroint thee. Beat it. Alternatively, if you want to write and complain about how RPS is immoral, illicit, unethical, and fattening, go ahead ... bearing in mind that my advanced degrees include law and philosophy (with ethics and logic both standard on this model).
The rest of you, come on in. Don't expect a lot of bells and whistles and fancy schmancy HTML: I'm a writer (and a danged serious one, in my 'real' life), not a web designer, and you should be here for the fic, not to see what I can do with GIFs of the Maryland State Flag or animations of Lance Bass's booty dance, okay?
