stories i will write. eventually.
I once posted a meme that asked me to list lyrics that hold a lot of fanfic potential in them in my opinion but the stories never come. I'm reposting them with thoughts I always had for the possible fics as a sort of notes type of thing for future fics I might write. If you feel inspired, go ahead and write but if you rip off my story ideas, at least credit. Oh, and no songfics. Please.
honesty or mystery?
tell me, i'm not scared anymore
i got no secret purpose, i don't seem obvious do i?

This has been this FF8 bunny in my head for years. It's Selphie/Irvine and it's basically Irvine chatting her up. Yeah, that's all I got. Maybe that's why it's never gotten written.
sick and uninspired by the diamonds in your fire
burning like a flame inside of you
but is this just desire or the truth
- foo fighters, "tired of you"
I actually don't know what the fuck this is supposed to be about. Some rather fucked-up relationship. With sex and unspoken emotions. Yes.
i will never want to date you
while i can learn to hate you
if you somehow learn to love me,
well, that's just my luck
- afi, "cruising control"
H/D. Harry and Draco have a problem. They want to hate each other but they kind of sort of like each other. A lot. They don't really want to admit this problem, though, so they stick to sex. But things are complicated. Insert every other H/D cliché out there.
what big thoughts you have
i can see them in your eyes
when you pretend to laugh
the reflection i see
reminds me
of somebody like me
- descendents, "original me"
Pretension. It's the new black. Basically any two characters who discover they have something in common because they're both pretending. But what they have in common is really what's on the inside. And then a story surrounded this. Right now I'm thinking this could be a Bleach story. I just don't know with what characters.
i tried so hard to make you smile
for once i tried to be myself
i made you scared, i made you cry
so i never tried again
- kent, "protection"
More pretension. I like the idea you have to pretend to be someone else in order to be with the person you love. It's self-deceit but you do it because you love and don't want to lose that love. This is probably a Raito/Misa story in the Death Note fandom with some strange AU flavors because Raito? In love with Misa? Yeah. Okay. Suuure.
i'm so glad that you came
i'm so glad you remembered
to see how we're ending
our last dance together
reluctantly cautiously but
prettier than ever
i really believed that this time
it's forever
- the cure, "last dance"
I've always wanted to write a break-up story with this bittersweet last meeting. And the dancing could be a sex metaphor. And the relationship would've gone on-off for years and years and now it would finally be over. This originally half-inspired a H/D story that I never posted because it sucked but yeah.
my feelings stay the same
covered head to toe
in blood and fear and spite
- snow patrol, "gleaming auction"
I just got bunnied for this story in a major way while discussing some crappy R/Hr fic with sioniann. It includes some really weird R/Hr and some even weirder Trio stuff with Harry being dead and cemetaries and violent sex and no happy shit like having 11 babies before turning 40. Also? Ginny might kill herself. Why? Because.
