(no subject)
So, instead of actually putting new words on my hockey big-bang fic today (which is at 13,000 words), I tried to keep other plot-bunnies from distracting me, by outlining them in Scrivener.
I outlined 3 different fics today, between 9 and 14 note-cards/scenes each (and they'd be sure to expand from there if/when I actually get into the writing).
I have no shortage of ideas, that's for sure.
The three bunnies I worked on are:
The Tazer/Kaner magical realism that I talked about a while ago, where Pat is a cursed fairy prince and Jon is Jon. The biggest sticking point of that one is trying to find a way to express why either of these guys finds the other attractive beyond "They just do." One of the notes is "P insults J, his face and his hockey."
Sid/Geno, also somewhat magical, where Sid has a very bad night after a game and ends up without money, shoes, jacket or phone, in Pittsburgh in the winter. Geno is the 'homeless' guy who rescues him. And there's a whole world of magic that Sid has sometimes dreamed of.
Sid/Ovie dystopian fic where pro athletes sometimes go to underground pit-fights. It's not really Ovie's scene, but there's this one fighter he can't get out of his head, a regular that's owned by the house. So he keeps going back until his favorite is injured in a fight, and by then it's too late to walk away.
Okay. Now that that's pinned down and not going to get lost in my brain, I need to work on the BB some more.
