PWP meme

Borrowed without permission from penknife and piratemistress. Because doing the meme was more fun than trying to write the actual stories.

Includes big giant SPOILERS for AWE.

*laughing all the way down the hall*

Jack: Oh, for the love of-- Just fake it, love. I promise you, no one will know.
Erinya: Have you met this fandom? These people know their classics. And their dead pirates. They'll know.
Jack: Then distract them with convoluted sentence structure, scraps of Latin, and humorous side-tracking. [off her look] What? It's always worked for me.

This fandom's pretty sharp, it's true. And this is one of the stories I've been waiting for. PLEEEEESE?

Johnny: [from his personal cloud of smoke] Sorry, no. And just to really throw you for a loop, I'm finally marrying Vanessa this summer.

Don't you find Jack playing Johnny sometimes a bit weird? I mean, no weirder than the reverse, I suppose....

Will: No kidding. This one is a bit Grimm.

Oh that's good! I want to visit your Green Room!

Elizabeth: YES PLEASE. I mean, I guess that's all right.
Will: That's it. I'm officially on strike. [produces sign] Come on, Elizabeth, let's go.
Elizabeth: [sulkily] Oh, fine then. Like you never made puppy eyes at Jack on the way to Tortuga.
Will: How did you--Hey! Did he tell you that?

*cannot stop laughing*

Hee! I'm glad this made you laugh! It amused me, too.

I think the main problem with the Underworld story is that I have to deal directly with metaphysical law in the last part in order to finish it up the way I planned, rather than just riffing on the mythology. Further complicated by the fact that Persephone rather wants to keep Jack around.

Don't you find Jack playing Johnny sometimes a bit weird?

Yep. Which is more and more what the ALK stories are about, crazy UST aside.

I want to visit your Green Room!

It is fun to play with them in meta-space, especially when I'm blocked on actual fic. And yeah, the post-AWE Green Room is an interesting place. Although it gets awfully snarky in there....
