Banichi's POV on the entire Foreigner series might be about as funny as All I Ever Needed.

It's possible nobody who understands both sides of this reference is around anymore. All I Ever Needed was Helen's hilarious remix of Nsyncgrrrl's unintentionally hilarious epic All I Ever Wanted, which was deep in a dramatic and emo teenaged point of view, and by using a different point of view, the remix highlighted just how funny the moody protagonists really were. This was the first remix I - or most(?) of then popslash fandom - were aware of (2001? 2002?), and predates the term "remix" gaining popularity, at least in my corner of fandom.

I went to check my recall of events just now at fanlore only to discover that there's not even a page for AIEW, let alone any mention of the to-my-mind seminal AIEN.

I did sorta wake Wax up to ask about it (except not the bit about why it was funny - she does need her sleep), and she agreed. So once she reads the Foreigner series that will be at least two. I suppose nobody who was active in popslash then has worked on that section of the wiki.

Maybe someday I will try again. I usually adore Cherryh but so far not Foreigner.
