So you watch (or rewatch) something and the slash goggles slide into place juuuust so and you go read all the fic and none of all the fic has the huge-ass story you want to read for that pairing so the story takes over your head right when you're in the middle of something else and the pairing involved no longer has what most people would consider an active fandom and it was never that big in the first place because of one of the actors involved so nobody would read the story but you would because you really want to read that story and no other fucker is going to write it for you.
AND it's not even a super-duper original idea so it wouldn't be anything amazing or more than just something that's hot and readable but that's all you need and you have flu and haven't been able to sleep all night because of coughing and mucus and breathing issues so instead you sit on your sofa and try to make some progress with your primary WIP but instead the story you want to read has created itself fully in the centre of your head and you really don't want to pull that 'abandoning the primary WIP because ~bunny' YET AGAIN and you're really enjoying writing this WIP so you try your best to ignore the uber-bunny whispering to itself in detail and promise yourself you'll probably write it once you've finished something and that you'll probably not post it anywhere anyway because holy shit it's embarrassing and the few fandom friends you have left will spend the short remainder of their acquaintance with you side-eyeing you for writing that one thing.
and nobody's likely to read this as you seldom post in lj anymore like everyone else but you had to get it out and you don't have a tumblr or twitter anymore and typing it out in public is the only thing that shuts the uber-bunny up for FIVE FREAKIN SECONDS.
