Gilmore Girls fic: Richard Gilmore and the Homemade Broomstick

[oxoniensis]

Richard Gilmore and the Homemade Broomstick [Gilmore Girls, Richard, Dean/Rory, Gypsy, Lorelai, G, 1,119 words, a silly little AU for kellifer_fic, to make up for the tardiness of your proper story. Sort of spoilery for 2x12. A huge thank you to zooey_glass04 for betaing, and making me post!]

Wooo, yeay, you posted! It is am awesome little fic, my dear :D I am still giggling over the picture of Gypsy. Also, it did not fully sink in before, but OMG Richard on a broomstick! D'you think he'd ride side saddle? *amused* I guess he'd make a point of riding astride, and when he went out with Emily she'd make him go on the carpet, and he'd pretend he was just doing it for her but secretly be relieved, ahaha.

Your fic seems to have eaten my brain, now <3

[oxoniensis]

Oh yes, side saddle! Hee. I had this picture of his broomstick as very stately and padded and comfortable. I think secretly Emily prefers the broomstick (it does take two) but the Axminster just *looks* so good and makes all her friends jealous (it seats 10, and was frightfully expensive, and is really ridiculous for the two of them).

The worst of it is, now I keep wanting to do things with the other characters - make Taylor a bad-tempered squib, and Kirk could drive a knight bus! And can you just imagine Babette with a crystal ball, and Miss Patty giving broom flying lessons?!

[zooey_glass04]

Ahahahahah oh, Miss Patty with lots of little girls bobbing up and down on their training brooms, doing synchronised flying! I loooooooooooove you! I would so not be sorry to see more!

[oxoniensis]

Oh, the possibilities! They're all just too fun! I bet you could write something good with that...

I... I love this so much.

SO MUCH I HAVE NO WORDS.

*flails*

[oxoniensis]

Whee, thank you, darling!

[meli_64]

Holy crap. This creates, hilarious pictures in my head. Mostly of Lorelai making funny magic jokes. Brilliant!

[oxoniensis]

Hee, thanks! I wish I could have given Lorelai more room in the story, but Richard just kept shutting her off! *g*

[kellifer_fic]

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *takes breath* eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

I love this! *squishes fic and you*

I want to fold it up and keep it in my pocket forever and ever because it is so adorable... :D

[oxoniensis]

Yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed it, cracked as it is! Even if Richard is just as pompous as a wizard as he is normally. *g*

[tigriswolf]

Oh, *hee* Just awesome.

[oxoniensis]

Thank you! It was a ridiculous amount of fun to write!
