The Meme that Abounds About my F-list

Jul 29, 2008 18:21

1. Give me a list of THREE (or more) stories that I would NEVER write.
2. I will pick one of the story suggestions and attempt to write a snippet.
3. Spread the meme on your own LJ if you want.

I reserve the right to veto. But if I do, I will try to write you something else instead.

Now go for it!

Hm...Let's see...

1. An AU where Tim died in the Crisis instead of Kon.
2. Something involving the World Without YJ Cassie, the one who got her powers from Dionysis.
3. Cassie gets pregnant, but Tim isn't the father.

Everything about this is unsettling. But at the moment, all Cassie can think of is that Tim has obviously done this before. He's done the impromptu foot-massages; he's done the late-night odd snack runs; he's done the lamaze classes. All for a baby that isn't his. She wants to know what crazy bitch put him through that, but she knows it would be rather hypocritical under the circumstances ( ... )

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. XD This is just so freakin' *cute*! And the idea of the father being an actual Titan is perfect for a Wonder, but especially for Cassie. (cuddles mental image of the baby) And of course Tim stays with her. He always does. Seriously, the boy is too perfect for his own good. ^_^

Excelent story, doumo arigato gozaimasu!

When I first looked at the prompt, I was thinking of Kon as the father. But then I realized I could be more unpredictable than that. And really, the methods of pregnancy in ancient Greek mythology are too ridiculous to pass up. Rays of golden light? Swans? I mean really. Also, Hyperion being the father is extra ironic because the guy used to be a suitor of Donna's.

And Tim... is Tim. Yes.

Thank you! (Though can you give me a translation of "doumo arigato gozaimasu?")

Heh..."Doumo arigato gozaimasu" is Japanese for "Thank you very much." It's also excessively polite, but it's useful for expressing how much I liked this.

The team doesn't just need intelligence. It needs brilliance. It needs it to balance the pure idiocy that makes up 80% (or more? Less?) of the team. Cissie and Billy's inane argument over lost socks in the room beyond is positive proof. It's times like this that Cassie wishes she'd been granted powers by Athena--maybe even Zeus--but then she eats another donut and feels better. She nearly takes another sip of wine as well, but then thinks better of it and offers it to Tim ( ... )

Heh...nice. XD That elseworld or whatever you want to call it was always seriously messed up, but I gotta admit, you got the two sides of YJ working together very nicely. Nice to see there's still some of the Cassie we know and love in there somewhere. And you even remembered the 'Spoiler' shirt - which is, stupidly enough, my favorite part of that entire incident.

Of course you dig the Spoiler shirt. It's one of those little ironies that makes YJ the bomb.

My f-list is small, and it sometimes makes me sad that so few people take me up on these challenge/meme things, so I figured I'd go for more than one of your prompts. I'm considering doing the first one too, but I need to get a solid idea in my head of what direction to take it in

Though really, I can see things like this snippet becoming a meme: "Take your OTP and write them in an AU where their love story is especially strange and weird." World without YJ is a great place for that.
