A meme, because I haven't done one in FOREVER!
Comment here if you want to play, and I will give you three-six couples that I associate with you, and you make an entry in your journal talking about those couples and fics that you wish the universe would write for you.
leobrat gave me the following:
~Well, I was going to NOT say Damon/Elena. Because you write all the stories. But is there anything you ever wished to see, that you did not write?
~Beth/Daryl. Do tell ME what you would like to see.
~Puck/Quinn
~Angela/Jordan (MSCL)
~Matt Donovan/Anyone/Everyone
Damon & Elena
--I remember in early S3, I always wanted Damon to JUST GET OVER ELENA. I bugged a friend until she wrote some of the story, but she never finished it. So, yeah, I always wanted the fic where Damon is Rhett "My Dear, I Don't Give a FUCK" Butler and Elena is Scarlett "I Will Get Him Back Tomorrow!" O'Hara. I would be fine with an ala Scarlett sequel fic where she wins him back, but it's not necessary.
--I also always wanted a Human!Damon and Vampire!Elena story--it's the one story about them I started that I never finished. Now that we know we're getting S7 for sure, I still have hope this could be a canon story...but I would so read that fic. Not an AH AU, but one where all the witches who hate Damon made him human for some reason and he and Elena have to cope with the differences that creates in their relationship. My idea also involved amnesiac!Damon, which I would also read. Combined, separate, whatever. The point is, it's ELENA TRYING TO WIN DAMON, not the other way around.
So, those were the two scenarios I never got around to.
Beth & Daryl
--I have always wanted Carol's appearance in the hospital to be a ruse to rescue Beth, who in turn rescues all their asses right back of course. Sexytiems ensue after they get out of Atlanta.
--I love Prison-era fics, too, but not overly romantic, like just the undertones of their awareness of each other. There was this one I read where they had to dance or something, and I remember it was just perfect. Basically I'd read fic where Daryl has conversations with everyone but Beth ABOUT Beth, like Beth has about Daryl. Like, beginning spark fic, to light up the sky.
--I generally don't care for non-ZA-AUs, but when I got Garth Brooks' new CD last fall, there was this song on it:
His version has no audio on YouTube, but this guy does alright on it, so you can hear it. The first time I heard it, I was like BETHYL FEELS! So, yeah, that's the non-ZA AU I want.
Puck & Quinn
--You know, I really did write these two in all the incarnations I wanted to see: getting back together after all the Beth drama; grown-up PQ coming back together after many years apart; and AU PQ keep the baby. Mostly what I wish for them? That their creators had loved them as much as I do.
Jordan & Angela
--I have always known that if I knew what fanfic was in 1995, I would have been writing it about this show. I wanted Angela to have her first time, and for it to be sweet and good, and the only way that could have happened was for Jordan to have LOST her and then to win her back...and we never got to see the after. I don't think they would have made it out of high school, but they would have been that sweet high school thing that is just the best you can love when you aren't a wholly formed person.
--20 year reunion (Jordan wouldnt go the 10, and Angela almost didn't go to the 20), but they get there and they're single (Angela's divorced, some unsettled dreamer type like her first love and her dad who ended up leaving her because he was unhappy in his life) and Jordan's never been with anyone longer than the two years he was with her in high school. 'Cause. You know. He's loved her all these years.
Matt & _________ (Bonnie, the answer is always BONNIE!)
--This is the story I've always wanted, Matt and Bonnie, who just look at each other one day and realize, WE'RE THE BEST ONES! WE SHOULD BE TOGETHER, HEY I ALREADY LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Because they are! They are, they are! And did you hear? McQueen in leaving TVD, so my Matt/Bonnie dream has new fire!
--I did like Matt and Rebekah. But only if Klaus is nowhere near them to muck it up. Her remark about how beautifully human Matt is, is still one of my favorite lines of the series. She would still think that, even when he looked old enough to be her grandpa. Because. MATT FUCKING DONOVAN! And she would never turn him, but bring lovely roses to his grave each week.
This was super fun, so glad I did it!
