I am hungry

dragovianknightAbsolutely STARVING, for TKR fic.
Now, I am the first to admit that TKR? Not actually a good show. (Come on, it was part of Action Pack, which gave us Hercules, Xena, and a buttload of shows without leads capable of somehow making up for the complete failure of everything around them.) I watch it NOW, and I think, "Self, I totally understand why, first run, you missed about half these episodes." Because I was just there for the talking cars - try to act surprised - and none of the talking cars could hold a candle to KITT (or even KI3T).
There are only 22 TKR fics on the Pit of Voles. This in itself should tell us something. (Edit: Of these, I have read the four readable ones. One I recoiled from like a vampire when Jenny walked into a "Christian themed coffee shop"*, and several are written in German. Why did I stop studying German?)
And yet, having mainlined the show (on second complete view-through right now; thank you, Hulu) and started writing the TKR team into the Indestructible verse, I am desperate for fic worth reading. I...I may have to write it myself. *sob*
Also, there is a Toyota Tundra staring at me hopefully going, "I think a REALLY BIG SHIPPING CONTAINER should be arriving at the KITT Cave any day now, don't you?" *sigh* Oh, Tundra, why couldn't you just stay happy as a Maximal reindeer, I ask you? (No, "Because you stopped writing Beast Wars" is not an answer. Go away.)
Edit: I CAN HAZ ALBATROSS NAO! (Yes, fine, most of my 750 words involved brainstorming TKR fic.)
*Although now I do kind of want to see "Holy Grounds" appear in Highlander fic, because there it could have LOLarious uses. Or possibly in Forever Knight. And no, I am not going for the obvious Knight crossover.
