Here and Now

Gah, wasn't it just November? Although, I guess that at my lj, it really was. *sheepish*I know I've got a lot of nerve showing up here after almost a year, so thank you so much for not kicking me to the curb. Erm, but no worries, of course, if this serves as a reminder that you meant to click that button a long time ago ( Read more... )

WELL, FANCY MEETING YOU HERE.

Didn't you write some L/R earlier this year? I'm v.v. excited to read what you come up with for the challenge. YAY!

I spell it "donut" even though I know "doughnut" is technically correct. But the former has taken over.

OMG RIGHT?!?!

And yup, I wrote L/R elevator fic early days. All by myself! (The Buffy stuff I did was part of a huge collaboration.) Now one of the L/R WIPs I've been tinkering with for months is thisclose to finished. I think I could actually wrap it up this week were it not for work and getting ready for adjrunCon :)

I only have vague ideas for Douchefest -- one of them is RPF, I don't even -- but I think wrisomifu will really help me focus.

I'm right there with you on donut vs. doughnut. I'm too resistant to such a fundamental change. Plus, "doughnut" just looks too fancy. Like the extraneous "u" you Canadians add to all your words ;-)

Listen, our "u" is civilized. ;)

Hmm, RPF for Douchefest? How would it be about L/R and Noah?

Each section would be right after a new script comes out, and with each one, Van would slowly come to realize that a) Reid is awesome, b) Noah is not awesome, and c) Noah hasn't been awesome in a v.v. long time, if ever.

That's the gist of it, but there would also be Jake having no such realizations (this is "canon"), light digs at his blind-acting, and Van and Eric running lines and talking about (rehearsing?) their kissing scenes.

I get that such a piece would be borderline Jake-bashing, and I really DO NOT WANT these ideas in my head, which is why I haven't asked if RPF (which I don't even really read, so seriously, wtf!?) is even allowed, but for some reason I'm having trouble thinking of anything else :| I'm hoping that finishing the WIP will help.

We (the mods) haven't talked about RPS/F, since this is a character-driven challenge. Hmm. I do tend to think we'd really rather keep it all character-based fic, since we don't want any Jake-bashing in the comm or to invite any more wank. :/ However, you could still write it, obviously! Just not for noah_who.

I'd be delighted to bounce fic ideas with you for the challenge if you're feeling stuck! And I'm very excited about this WIP. Also very excited by all the emailing and commenting you're doing. I APPROVE.

Heh, I don't want to write it. I feel weird that I've even thought about it to this extent. (Just when I thought I had no more fannish boundaries.)

I would imagine that an RPF from an unknown writer would go unnoticed, but even the idea of wank makes me queasy, which is another reason I cannot even believe I'm having these thoughts :|

Oooh, I would love to brainstorm with you! Or just talk about how awesome Reid is :) I really do hope that once the WIP is finished, I can hit the reset button on my brain. *crosses fingers*

You'd be amazed the things these wanky Nukers will seize upon. :|

If you're free later, I'll call you tonight for brainstorming and to force the WIP details out of you!

I would love to chat :) I miss those boys so much and have started re-watching eps, again, but it's not enough. Thank goodness for good fic! *clings to FOUND*
