[tvd] ficathon suggestion | "I've stopped trying to find any peace in my mind..."

So, it seems like the best way to enjoy The Vampire Diaries these days is to simply Go With The Crack. It's a thing. So I thought, why not celebrate that?! So, THIS! I have no idea whether this has been done/attempted before. I've not seen one quite like it but it seems like SUCH FUN so I kinda think I can't possibly be THAT ORIGINAL...!

Anyway, I call it

THE CHINESE WHISPERS FICATHON | TVD STYLE






So, the plan is this:

1. People indicate in a reply to this post their interest in participating and I will create A List.
2. I write the start of a fic. The opening scene or two for example.
3. I then send it to the next person on the aforementioned List Of Those Interested In Participating.
4. They write the next couple of scenes and SEND IT BACK TO ME ONLY.
5. I forward THEIR CONTRIBUTION ONLY on to the next person on the list.
6. They read that one part and write their own response/continuation (without knowing what happened in the original part).
7. They send their reply BACK TO ME ONLY.
8. I forward THEIR CONTRIBUTION ONLY on to the next person on the list.
9. Once everyone has had at least one turn (depending on how many people I get who might be interested, you might get more than one turn), I POST THE ENTIRE FIC AT ONCE.
10. CRACK WILL ENSUE!

I fail to see how this can't end epically.

The writing rules:

(Because, although it's crack, it still needs to have some semblance of sanity to make it readable) would probably have to be: Anything canon goes. Story-lines, characters, relationships, friendships, personality quirks, supernatural lore, etc. And it's set present day, and in Mystic Falls.

Needless to say, CHARACTER BASHING FOR THE SAKE OF IT does not go with FUN CRACK FICCING OF EPIC and so this is obviously out!

I'm thinking, 4 days turnaround per part? Or 2 days to tell me you need to pass on your turn so I can forward the section on to the next person on the list?

THE RULES ARE NEGOTIABLE AT THIS STAGE!

Anyway, if you think this sounds like as much fun as I think it sounds like (heeeeeee), then leave your "HELL YES, I'M IN" below in the comments (and an email address if you prefer, otherwise LJ PMs will be used as default for communication).
