[fic] the complete guide to insufficiency

[youcallitwinter]

So fluffyfrolicker is hosting the mortals shall bow; a multi fandom women comment ficathon and I AM BASICALLY MAKING EVERYONE WRITE ME RAVEN/BELLAMY FIC AS THEY SHOULD. And clearly I am surrounded by people I do not deserve, because they've actually done it to. PLZ READ ASAP.

I hate to show up uninvited

But I'm just sitting here going through the comment thread and it just struck me that Octavia/Bellamy are such an otp material that it's a bit incredulous. I didn't even realize that while watching the show. So it just goes ahead to show that either I am very ignorant or you guys are very good at enabling people to ship the most angsty of ships. Excuse my five year old grammar I'm still reeling.

They have got all the elements right: co-dependency, the Klaus complex i.e. the overprotective, slightly incestuous, older brother complex, hate-love dichotomy, resentment and also the Jamie Lannister excuse: everything I do, I do for love. I mean it's kinda hilarious that Bellamy justifies all his actions in favour of protecting Octavia. And I totally like the thing Octavia has going on for herself, the whole I-kissed-him-because-i-wanted-to-be-kissed attitude is becoming and Marie Ang-Icantspellit is too attractive to be anything else. Half of my incest ships happen due to the very fact that the actors are too attractive to be shipped with anyone else. But then again the actress playing Raven is gorgeous. Clarke, I don't like her much, but only because the whole fandom likes her.

Anyway you guys talk about the Blake siblings in such a fic-cy manner, not necessarily incestuous but a very complex relationship that it could be easily misconstrued. Am I even making any sense? I am quite surprised that you haven't written for them, meaning I am kinda wondering if you're gonna write for them. Of course 'hoping' can be easily substituted for wondering here. I mean it's been long since you last wrote an incest thing and Octavia /Bellamy is totally up your alley(?), what with your affinity towards both the actors. Just please please give It a thought in the very least. I will totally join Lj to advance this one-sided plea into a conversation.
