Yeah - there are many different ways to approach the concept of "mind-fuck" - since the show is called "Unexpected Levels" - I am looking for vids that either are interestingly meta and original or vids that just floor the viewer - kinda what I call a mind fuck. So vids I would call a mind fuck generate a "whoa, dude" reaction - like "So Real" or Killa and T Jonesy's "Closer" or Seah and Margie's "Haunted" - vids that blow your mind. Mind fuck - mind blow - all of these things make me happy.
So while a Riley/Spike vid has the unexpected part - it would have to also have the level part. It would have to make me believe that R/S was one true pair or something - I don't want a slash vid in the show that just makes it on curiosity factor.
IMO a slash vid *needs* a canonical basis. This is just my opionion - but I when I watch a vid I want to feel like a part of the show is being illuminated - something that may have been buried in the text, or something that was everything but blatantly stated. Constructed reality is fun - but it never really gets to me without a firm basis in canon.
So while L/L fuckedupitude is pretty much canon on the show - what can actually be done with that - the way that relationship can be illustrated in a vid could be gut-wrenching and mind blowing - so I was wondering if maybe that vid exists. I would understand if it doesn't - it is a big ole squicky theme.
