This is hopefully going to be epic

[hoppipolla]

This basically stemmed from a long, long conversation I had with acityofwonder . Basically we are kind of tired of the same pairings being written so, we thought hey, we'll write some of the ones that WE like. Some of the more unusual ones sure, but we know that there are many on our flist who would read these.

This is also a place for fic requests. Not the

WORLD DOMINATION. STARTS. NOW

I AM STOKED. I KNOW I ALREADY READ IT AND I KNOW WHAT'S IN STORE I CAN'T WAIT

BITCHEZ BEST WATCH OUT. FIERCENESS IS ON

I love it but you already know that. so yeah, I love it ♥

[leetje]

Oh! I fully support this movement!

Maybe we could also breathe new life into fbslashelite? It defenitely would keep out the teenies!

[hoppipolla]

Thank you! You are always more than welcome to leave a prompt or just start pimping the random pairings :D

[hai Marco]

I would love that! I think it would be a great idea, and I hate to say it, but say no to Sernando and S/X

Wanna be a mod? Kell's one too ;) I could use all the help I can get!

Already said to Kell, there's going to be a freaking ban on those ridiculous pairing nicknames. JUST NO.

[hoppipolla]

Oh I would love to. You wouldn't mind if we link to this post, just to explain our decision to kickstart the community again?

Oh God yes. Kell and I were trying to make some up for the pairings we like and we said if it couldn't go together, then they weren't meant to be :D

What a great idea! Would be nice to see some variety. I'd love to see more unusual players being slashed. I mean, there are so great (and good looking) players nobody ever writes about. I am going to think about a great unusual pairing and I will get back to you with that ;-)

[hoppipolla]

Thank you, like I said, we were both just so bored and shocked at how many times one pairing can be written. And you are right, there are tons of possibilities for slash outside of the normal pairings.

Take your time and leave as many as you'd like. 2009 is a year for the revival of good slash

Hey! Well, I have to admit that all of your pairings do sound very interesting, and yeah, I also have to admit that it's rather boring to read about the same OTP's all the time so THANK YOU SO MUCH for making something like that <3 And *of course* there's a pairing on the list I thought about several times before: Yoann and Pippo... Would you do this for me? *beams* I don't really care about the plot, I love being surprised, so... <33

[hoppipolla]

Thank you. I mean not all my pairings are for everyone but it's just the idea. Why shouldn't someone write who they want without fear of making someone mad?

Feel free to tell others, they don't have to leave one here but just start saying no to the over written pairings.

I will definitely write that!

[x_acid_queen_x]

I definitely agree with you on that!

I'll think about others, too... It was just so funny that Pippo/Yoann was on your list *grins*

Aw thank you <333

Hopefully the fandom can get back to the way it was.

See, I'm already proving that people want to read pairings like that.

I think this is a great idea! In a way it's also a reminder that, hello, there are other pairings than, i don't know, Sergio/Fernando and Stevie/Xabi, that can be written. According to the tags at fbslash, Xabi is the one having been slashed the most of all people. /fun fact.

Okay, so the pairing I've always wanted to read? Steven Gerrard/Gareth Barry.

[hoppipolla]

I agree. I mean there is nothing wrong if someone likes them, but seeing both of them being written everyday is a little much. I think Serie A is pretty neglected and yes it's not for everyone, but there is so much potential there. And just there but England too. If people would just open up and start seeing past one OTP. It's nice to have, but it's nice to have variety.

OOOh that's a good one. I love it.

[regions]

Oh yes, and don't get me wrong, I do love me some Sergio/Fernando and Stevie/Xabi too. But sometimes it's a bit overwhelming when it's only them. Variety is good.

[hoppipolla]

I've never been a huge fan of either (shocking, I know :P) so it's always been a bit much for me. I would love to see people writing more of what they want.
