Since the MPAA has been worried about losing the copyright on their rating system, fans have worked out a system for themselves. The one I'm using is The Fan Rated Rating System.

The Variations Set of Stories

VARIATIONS ON A THEME (04/97)
A set of stories all based on an idea sent to us by a reader, concerning Methos' dreams or nightmares about the events of Comes A Horseman and Revelation 6:8.   This is the original idea as it was sent to us:  "It's a dream/nightmare that Methos has. His mind is trying to deal with all the shock, anger and fear he's beset with due to the events of CaH and maybe Rev (and some events seen only in fanfic). Anyway, his dreaming mind has pulled these things together and confused them, including his pain and anger over Mac's summary judgment of him and memories of his capture, training and use of Cassandra, until those memories metamorphose into Duncan playing Cassandra's role. As the function of dreaming can be wish fulfillment, even in a darker sense of venting anger in this way, Methos' unconscious mind can satisfy and relieve the anger and assuage the pain of current reality, since in his dream which, of course, is set in the Bronze Age, it is Duncan who was taken from his village during a raid and must learn that he now lives to serve Methos. And will stay alive only so long as he pleases this horseman."

Bits of Fluff and Nonsense

These are vignettes that come from list challenges or other unlikely inspirations. None of them are very long, none of them have any literary merit. Hopefully, they're at least fun. All I'll guarantee is that they've been spell checked.
