As I'm sure you all saw last week, Betty White is the last Golden Girl standing now that Rue McClanahan has passed away.
Fanfic for this show pretty much does not exist (as
thelastgoodname can attest), and that's just wrong. Wrong, I say!
So if you love Blanche, Rose, Dorothy, and Sophia half as much as I do, let's change that 100 words at a time!
Femslash, gen, het, slash, whatever you want to write--as long as it celebrates these wonderful characters!
Please signal boost, says the girl with the tiny flist. :)

Re: Okay, this is sadder than I meant it to be
Date: 2010-06-07 03:57 am (UTC)One of the things that I love most about GG is that it's a show about older people, and so death and infirmity and all of those issues of aging are part and parcel of the show. And I adore that it treats older people as beautiful, complex, sexual beings.
I just wanted to pay a little homage to that.
And also, I couldn't help but tear up at the thought of Blanche going to meet her Maker in a dress that would have the preacher hot around the collar.
Rose is just so fun. She's so innocent and sweet, but, as you say, she's fearful as well, and I think she can be the cruelest of them when she puts her mind to it because you don't expect it of her.
