I enjoy canon-close and A/U stories myself, but I can be pretty picky when it comes to the latter. It has to be pretty darn original and interesting for me to actually want to read it. But most of the A/U's I see are, "What would happen if these characters were in High School?" Wow. I don't even want to go there. But would you object if my next One Piece story had a fair amount of angst than normal? :P It would have *h/c* in it. *wiggles eyebrows*
Concerning that wonderful feeling in the pit of your stomach -- yes, a rare breed indeed. I pity the rest of the human race.
I've seen massive ST fan-zines that have been published on the net. Most of which are Kirk&Spock. I've thought about certain elements of their relationship being reflected in Luffy and Zoro's relationship also. Often times, the bond between captain and first mate is portrayed as strong and true. I love. I get what you're saying about the pon farr stuff, though. I've wondered about that myself -- I guess there really wouldn't be very many options. But many fans, being the dutiful writers that they are, have taken that theory upon themselves. But you probably already knew that.
--Hah hah! Sanji! I can almost see him saying that, too. Oh, the humanity...
