I Will Kick You To Sleep.

You know, I don't think a single person has written Nathan/Elena/Sully Uncharted fanfiction, and this makes me really quite sad. All I want is fanfiction about them hunting treasure together and accidentally falling into a three-way relationship, whoops, and Nathan being totally okay with this arrangement and Sully being a bit freaked out. (Elena falls somewhere between the two, but closer to the 'I'm okay with this' side of the spectrum.) I thought you were supposed to have everything, Internet.

In fact, it's a good thing I'm so smitten with Nathan/Elena, because a bit of poking around seems to indicate that it's the only pairing anyone writes. There's a tiny smattering of Flynn/Drake, a tinier one of Flynn/Elena and maybe two Nate/Chloe fics, but that's it. Poor Sully is left out entirely. I suppose the fact that he's twenty-five years older than anyone else in the main cast, semi-raised the main character and has a scary moustache gets in the way of most 'shippers.

As my output for the Uncharted fandom so far consists of two Nathan/Elena fics, I suppose I've no right to complain. I don't even have much inclination to complain; after some thought, I've come to the conclusion that Nathan Drake/Elena Fisher is probably my favourite pairing in the entire videogame world (this is not hyperbole; I mean it with all my heart), so I'm perfectly happy that the fandom focuses on them. But I would sort of like to see a Nathan/Elena/Sully fic. Just one.

I'd rectify the Nathan/Elena/Sully lack myself if I could, but I find myself completely unable to. I've no idea where to begin! I suppose the most likely scenario is 'Nate and Elena are already in a relationship and Sully is gradually brought into it somehow', but how?

(I don't actually 'ship Nathan/Sully on its own, but apparently I am all for it as an aspect of Nathan/Elena/Sully. I don't understand how my mind works.)

To whoever said 'I THINK I MIGHT KNOW WHO YOU ARE, ANON' over at [personal profile] unchartedkink, if I was indeed the person you were thinking of: I'd try to deny it, but I suppose this entry makes it rather obvious.


Slightly worrying side-effect of the Uncharted games: I've started looking at buildings from a 'how would I scale this?' point of view. (Or 'how would I scale this were I Nathan Drake?', I suppose, because he is a much more accomplished building-scaler than I.) If I start actually trying to scale buildings, please stop me; I can't see that ending well.

I know of at least two crazy Nate/Sully shippers over on tumblr - one of them who may or may not legitimately think they are Sullivan's gay incarnate... maybe they're just really into RPing.

... I hope the latter :|
