Gay. Totally gay. Liberace gay. Nightmare on Elm Street 2 gay.

I'm revising my novel yet again. This time I'm trying to put a bit more humor into the banter. I've got to compete with the Joss Whedons and Shane Blacks of the world, now don't I? Serious, irony-free dialog is dead! DEAD says I!

Y'know, it occurs to me that the way I'm writing the friendship between the two main characters, Sam and Alan... well... I think I've been drawing my experience from their troubled relationship from my last couple girlfriends. Without even realizing it, there are some serious, "OH SHUT UP AND KISS HIM ALREADY!" moments.

When I start seeing slashfic based on my work and LJ icons that say "Bluestone/Crowley=OTP," that's when I'll know I've made it.

Just give us half a chance! Squee! You've heard this before, but:

Indicators of slashy subtext:
1) Touching
2) Conversation
3) Arguing
4) Ignoring each other
5) Being aware of someone's existence
6) Being unaware of someone's existence

(yeah, like I wouldn't comment on this one.)

Nightmare on Elm Street 2 gay.

Soooo... basically anything can be construed as slashy?

Seriously, I totally want to get enough of a fandom going for my stuff that I have legions of slash fic writers out there playing with my toys, so to speak. I want a cult! I want a fandom! I want a nap!

Bitter at my little homage, snooky-bear?
