Another fic. RL/SB shippers might want to look the other way...

This one was inspired by a trip to HMS Wolfstar on Fiction Alley. I dropped in to see why people are so fanatical about this ship, and left traumatised by the fanaticism and shoddy logic, and not much the wiser.

This story is the result.

Of course, since then I've visited a couple of other ships in that forum, and they terrify me too. It would seem that I'm just not one of nature's shippers. I've learned my lesson and I'm never going back to SCUSA again... but by the time I'd ascertained this, I already had half a story on my hard drive, and rather than let an idea go to waste, I decided to run with it.

Anyway, this little piece is the story of the awful things that can happen when well-meaning people read far too much into something that isn't there.

As ever, any comments or advice are much aprecitated. So long as you don't flame me for not shipping RL/SB, or ask me to write a sequel in which they get together. It's not going to happen.
