White space, I've called it, the story in the margins, the subtext that isn't always just about finding the slash, but sometimes about finding the second story, read without reading, imagined in the description of a smile and the casual insults of people who don't need to be polite, and found in the small things. You know, the ones that are rather more important than you might at first glance think.
I can write PWPs and JustSmut and nonsense, but that..that...the white space, that's what I sometimes seek, when I really put my mind to it, when writing fanfiction isn't just a fun way to pass the time or please a friend, when I really care about what comes out of my pen, about what my fingers type on the keyboard, when I want not only to tell a story, but THE story, that's what I look for, that's what I cherish in other writers' fictions, when I find it.
That white space. :)
