Flist, Romans, Countrymen? Lend me your expertise.
My genderswapped X-Fic came a-callin’ today. And Riley!Muse is kind of scaring the hell out of me.
To borrow a format from Katt…
Percy: *flipping through paperwork, attempting to be productive*
Riley: AHEM.
Percy: Yes?
Riley: You need to talk to him. NOW.
Percy: Who?
Riley: Playin’ dumb don’t suit you, girl. You know exactly who.
Percy: You’ve been making googly eyes at Omorede and considering flirting with John just to piss Scarlett off. FORGIVE ME FOR BEING UNCLEAR.
Riley: I been givin’ off every single signal known to man and then some, and Andrew is JUST NOT GETTING IT. Y’SEE HOW THIS PRESENTS A PROBLEM?
Andrew: *off in the corner, reading*
Percy: Mmmm. He has been kind of oblivious.
Riley: KIND OF? I have flirted, I have hip-swished, I have SAT IN HIS DAMN LAP AND ALL BUT TOLD HIM I WANT TO RIDE HIM LIKE A COWGIRL. We beyond oblivious now. We into the territory of the ridiculous.
Percy: You don’t even know why you want in his pants!
Riley: BUT I KNOW I WANT IN THEM.
Percy: *yanking at own hair* You don’t even know how difficult that makes things, do you?
Riley: DON’T CARE. LIBIDO.
Percy: Hey, you were the one who went and got yourself hung up on the one guy in the mansion who can’t make skin contact. That’s not -
Riley: DON’T CARE. LIBIDO.
Percy: If I don’t have your motiva-
Riley: MAKE IT HAPPEN BITCH.
Percy: But-
Riley: DIDDY MAO.
Percy: *weeps*
Riley: *heads off towards Andrew, head held high*
Scarlett: *whispers* You want me to take her down to the Danger Room and absolutely break her? ‘Cause if you want me to, I can.
Percy: NOT. YOU. TOO.
So, moral of the story? Riley likes capslock and may be trying to kill me.
Care to help save a poor author by sharing really good, non-shmoopy guy-falling-for-girl stories/music/anything? Good X-Men fic recs that get into why Gambit finds Rogue attractive? Anything that's gonna get me in the proper headspace for both Riley and Andrew? If I don’t get Andrew properly interested in Riley right quick, I think I’m going to have a full scale revolt on my hands that even Scarlett probably won't be able to quell.
