Re: what Thomas GIbson ships

Probably, but I think they'll be cool with it as long as NOBODY do anything creepy like approach* them with it.

Did you see the clip of Gibson in a corset in Psycho Beach Party? Plus, he made out with a dude in Dharma & Greg, it wasn't a brief smooch, it was a When You See My Wife, Give Her This long smooch. He's been an actor for a long time, it's just fooling around.

...and MGG was a fashion model.

*Approach: I think that's the definite line crossing. If I had to go into a coworker's office to get something, accidentally knock over a box that tumble out a notebook that opens to drawings of everybody in the office having an orgy - well, it would be awkward, but in that situation, the coworker didn't do anything wrong - everyone have the right to fantasize, in privacy. If they actually approach any of us with that or left it open on his/her desk, THEN it is sexual harassment panda time. Or if it's online, in public.

With celebrities, they are playing characters even when they are not on stage, like, during photo ops and public meet and greets. That's what I think the RPS is about, their public personalities, it's like the Stephen Colbert thing. So I don't see anything wrong with it, as long as there is a big clear but not graphic disclaimer so they'll know to back away if they stumble across it, and that fans keep in mind that these are locker room penhouse exchanges and NOT bring it up to their face evar. Not unless they ask about it.

...and so long as, considering that the locker room fantasies are about real figures, obviously the usual whumpage we do to Reid we really should be careful about writing when it stars MGG! (Oh geez, I was just on the wiki trying to find Sir Ian's opinion on this, but then I found out someone was charged for writing RPS...why? The man in question wrote a fic featuring band members of Girls Outloud being kidnapped, raped, and murder, yikes! At some point, you gotta remember that your right to SHARE fantasies never trumps someone else's sense of safety)
