Request for conflicts

Nov 08, 2008 15:15

I HAVE DECIDED that I should probably write some fic wherein there is a conflict, and then the conflict is resolved. Yes, I know, this is all very avant-garde. I am an experimentalistThe only problem is, I am crap at coming up with conflicts other than "How do I get these two unlikely characters to make out ( Read more... )

Man vs. Man
Man vs. Nature
Man vs. Himself.

...

No? Too facetious?

*ponders on it* I am trying to think up some conflict myself, right now, though I am a little more limited in that it's for the stopwatch exchange. Lesigh. Anyway, what's wrong with conflict in order to get two unlikely characters to make out?

I may come back later when my brain turns on. Right now, I got nuffin.

Hmm. Well the last debate I had with someone came about because a news item was described with the term 'underground cave'. We wondered whether there was such a thing as an cave that wasn't underground.

But then my silly arguments do tend to be around what silly turn of phrase someone has said this time (I correct the grammar of the television. It is probably not healthy). My most recent one involved someone mentioning that an incident took place "at 7 a.m. in the morning". As though there was a 7 a.m. that wasn't in the morning.

I... may need ehlp.

Hmmm. I like that last one. So. Man vs.... Toaster. Small domestic appliances everywhere (at least, everywhere in Cardiff) are revolting. And not in the "haven't been cleaned for years" sense of the word. Torchwood must find the cause of this disaster and stop it before Ianto's coffee machine gets infected and he goes berserk and kills things it spreads to computers and cellphones and the internet it's too late ( ... )

Oh fun, can I foist some of my plot bunnies off on you?

There are lots of fics where Ianto sleeps with Jack to keep him from finding Lisa, but I would like to see one where he doesn't actually enjoy it, one where he might actually be straight. Which, of course, would make Jack chase him that much more.
