drugged-out crackfic

I love that this is LITERALLY drugged-out fic. Heh.

Wow, Lizzy. You took an offhanded idea and RAN with it. Seven-year old Corny and his Pez (*ahem* birth control ;)) is so adorable. Bad-boy rebel Corny is HYSTERICAL. Hair-losing Corny is really, really sad :(. Injection Corny is remarkably thoughtful. But, my favorite Corny?

OMG. OMG. OMG. Sarah Paquette, the brunette history-class taking-fucker Corny. Because...perfect. Very hot, but very believable, and...Viagra. DUDE. IT HAD TO BE DONE.

Seriously, this is an awesome piece of writing. You OWNED the challege! :)

(I'd say more, but I can't for any coherent thoughts at the moment, because of THE END OF THIS FIC. OMG!)

I always find it amusing how pieces that I'm not necessarily the most proud of (typically due to their cracked out nature) end up just being so well received. Which - YAY. I mean, no complaints, of course. I just guess I'm not as used to writing the cracked-out fluff(ish) fic yet. (FYI - this piece and Logan, On Ice would be the two fics that fit the above category)

Still, it was a lot of fun to write this, and Sarah Pocket totally deserved the shoutout. ;-) Looking back, now that I've gotten some sleep, I am strangely proud of this piece. I mean, are there any OTHER Cornyfics in fandom? Hee. Plus, it's about time that my schoolwork helped me write a fun fanfic. =)

Thanks for the feedback, my dear. YOU are awesome. =)

Teehee...I have a friend named Doug Cornelius.

Awesome, wonderful, so great. :D

Hee, really? That's too funny. Of course, this fic was in no way meant to implicate anything about *him*. (perhaps I should start putting things like *that* in my disclaimers ... ;-)

Thanks so much for the feedback. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it. =)

This was a lot of fun to read. It was quick and easy and just light and enjoyable. Corny doesn't get much attention and it was reading some insight into him. I know it is a serious issue but the idea of Corny bald is quite amusing, I couldn't help laughing at the image. I liked his thought process during the Lovenox section, very insightful on your part. And I can totally see a little kid, any little kid eating their parents pills, birthcontrol or otherwise if they thought it was candy.

Fun read Lizzy, I am glad you decided to write this.

Thanks, Susie! I had a lot of fun trying to figure out how to write Corny, and trying to get into the head of a stoner like him. (especially seeing how I don't partake) Writing Corny bald was a lot of fun - and one of the best things about "5 things" fics is that they can be totally contrary to reality as we know it. =D

Thanks so much for the feedback, Susie. I'm happy that you enjoyed it! :)

Wow. Your fic encompasses everything: sad, thoughtful, funny, etc. But this part,

One of the reasons he kept his hair so long for so many years was to help hide his rapidly-receding hairline. Add to that the fact that his mom and dad have both needed to wear wigs for as long as he can remember, and he really should have figured that his own hair wasn't long for this world.

killed. I liked how you conveyed Corny's emotions and situations in these simple sentences. Awesome job!

Thanks! I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed my attempt at getitng into Corny's mind. The concept of Corny going bald was an interestin gone to tackle, and I'm glad that it entertained you.

Thanks so much for the feedback! :)

Awww. You made crack!fic literal. Hee! What a fun take on a minor character. :)

herowlness March 12 2006, 02:07:17 UTC

Well, I don't know if any of the aforementioned drugs are *technically* crack, but it's definitely drug fic of some nature! =)

I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed it. Thanks for the feedback, Erin! :)
