Just finished rewatching Ultraviolet on DVD. If fandom were a just universe (if TV were a just universe) there would be lots of hawt, angsty fic about Vaughan Rice (young Mr. Idris Elba) and his stoic, faithful and doomed to be unrequited love for the utterly emotionally unavailable because vampires ate her family Angie March (Susannah Harker).
Instead I found some slash involving the POV prat played by Jack Davenport. Bleargh.
Yes, Jack Davenport is very handsome in that floppy-haired, ineffectually masculine, chinless English way (see Pirates of the Caribbean 1, 2 and 3) but IDRIS ELBA - Stringer Bell in the house fighting vampires, y'all - and people get all slashy with the pouty chinless wonder?
So. Wrong.
