The Great Escape.

May 21, 2012 14:05

Dear F-list: I am tired and my brain is broken and I am in desperate need of some shameless fannish escapism. Have a meme (that I nicked from redbrunja).

Name a character or pairing I know and I'll tell you what cliches, kinks, or tropes I'd write for them.

If you need a primer/reminder, you can pretty much look at my fic, my bookmarks, or my userpics to ( Read more... )

fandom saves the day, meme, you know you want to

Oooh, that's a good one. I kind of want God Mode Sue apocafic for Teyla, on Earth post-finale. And good old-fashioned amnesia fic after Michael. And some kind of twist on Girls with Guns, where she's a close combat specialist with her own damn gate team.

Loki! llwyden May 21 2012, 19:58:49 UTC
...you knew that was coming, right? ;)

For added bonus, give me both of them - Avengers!Loki and Gabriel (separately, I mean, though a crossover might be fun crack, too).

Ooooooooh. When I think about being fannish with Loki, I want all the Five Times fic omg. I think he just lends himself really well to that structure. And, like, random Five Times fic. Like "Five Times Loki Waged War on Reality TV" or "Four Times Loki Had a Pet (and the One Time It Ended Well. Kind Of.)." Mostly I want to see all the other times Thor fell for AstralProjection!Loki, starting from childhood, and how many walls/cliffs/large bodies of water they entailed.

With Gabriel, I'd actually want a kind of rehash on the Groundhog Day Loop from Mystery Spot, but actually involving him. Or really, really cracky Big Screwed-Up Family fic. And I will always, always, always want Gabriel-As-The-Unreliable-Narrator fic. Always.

A crossover might be too much for my fragile little brain to process (Loki: "I am a god, you pitiful flightless foot soldier." Gabriel: "Yeah. Historically, not a big fan."), but omg, the possibilities. I think I would need Time Stands Still fic, with Loki and Gabriel freezing everything on Earth and trying to ( ... )

There exists a trope for these two that I haven't already written? I mean, there was the Convenient Escape fic (aka Relocation for Plot Convenience), and the Torture Porn fic, and I'm working on a Hero's Journey (that's also a bonus crossover!). Hmmm. Maybe a nice "don't know what you've got 'til it's gone," which has been done for these two, but they make it so easy! And I will never, ever get tired of jealous!Oliver. Ever.

Steve/Natasha, please.

Well, there's the obvious - the two of them need all the "When Backstories Collide" fic ever. Maybe a good Cataclysm Backstory, told non-linearly, with Bucky at the forefront. But really, Guilty Conscience Redemption FTW! Natasha's ledger is dripping in red, and I think Steve perceives his similarly (between Dr. Erskine, Bucky, and now Coulson). I'd love to see even some quiet conversation between the two of them, post-movie, with Nat holding her vodka and it having no effect whatsoever on Steve and the two of them drinking anyway. Maybe to have an excuse for sex as an outlet.

Wow. I think that's the first trope hypothetical that I may actually have to write.

Oh, wow, that sounds AMAZING. And yeah, there are some epic opportunities for 'backstories collide' with Steve and Natasha.
