timepiececlockDude, Spike/Ed fic just creeps me out. For Cowboy Bebop fic I mean. Especially since the writers seem to think they're all rebellious and strong-stomached for writing a controversial pairing.
And yet I never see any Jet/Ed pairings, which would be jsut as bad but no worse. I want to yell at the Spike/Ed people "If you're so rebellious and self-cool because you write a cotnroversial pairing, why are you writing Jet/Ed? Because Jet is too much like her father-figure, and it would be ooky, right? Yeah. So much for your rebellious nature."
On the other hand, I read a fic recently where Ed had a crush on Spike (who was as expected totally oblivious). That amused me a great deal because they had her very in character in that she reacted like you'd expect Ed with a crush at 13 to act-- oddly.
