5 reasons Hard Core Logo should have AU fics (or...not *hides*

[llassah]

1) On the wall of the ‘Haight motherfucking Memorial Library’, Vancouver, there was a sign.

‘No making out in the stacks, this is a fucking place for books, not a brothel, unless you let the staff join in and DON’T GET COME ON THE BOOKS, fuckers.’

‘No pop music, fucking classical, jazz, techno, music that isn’t punk.’

‘DON’T GET COME ON THE BOOKS’

Oh! 3!!!!!

Can Joe plan my practical class for me? It'd be perfect. There'd be a ferret involved....

[llassah]

Joe is of course susceptible to ferrets *g*

Is it wrong to have such a deep and abiding love for the Boys at the battle of Agincourt? I expected to like the librarian one ("DON'T GET COME ON THE BOOKS!") or maybe the science lecturer one, but the Agincourt thing kinda rocked my socks.

I will NEVER write a HCL AU. But if I did, they would be bloody and muddy and hate the French.

[llassah]

heehee, I think agincourt's my favourite one too-

They call this day Saint Crispin's day. Whatever. But, uh, the spoogesucking fuckfaces who didn't show are gonna want to kick themselves when they hear how fucking awesome we were. You people are the fucking coolest!

(go on, write the agincourt one *g*)

OH MY GOD. OHMYGODOHMYGOD. AUs!!!

I'm sorry, I'm flailing all over your journal! Because--because-- I know classical ballet!Billy would look kind of a lot like Baryshnikov, right? But OH MY GOD, the idea of Joe as a mohawk-Balanchine with Billy as his Suzanne Farrell just KILLS ME RIGHT DED. Ahahahaha, but also, jdf;sdjflkdlksadlkdjkfas. (But also, really, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.) "The Don fucking Quixote, Billy! I wrote it for YOU!"

And for 3? The scary thing is that I think Joe would actually be a kind of a really good lecturer, wouldn't he? (Excepting the times he forgot his notes/was high and bullshitted the whole thing and omfg don't lets even get into the bizarre, non-DEA-listed stimulant (bought from the chemistry grads) habit Joe Dick would cultivate) It's, like, that performer egomaniac thing. Undergrads would love him! All older students would roll their eyes and say, "asshole' but be amused by his lectures anyway. But!!! When brilliant post-doc Billy Tallent found out that Joe had singlehandedly sabotaged and blown

I'd read the chemistry one. :-)

I... I think they actually never make it out of grad school. The four of them are working on the lab project that's going to complete their degrees, and it is almost there, but Joe...knows that Billy's only part of it because it's a narrow field of study and because they've known each other since they were thirteen. Joe is kind of a mediocre academic, and he knows it, but Billy is the real deal, and the second Billy gets his doctorate he's going to be recruited by every great school on the continent. Which means that Billy's going to leave. So, partially because Pipe is too high to notice and John too deep in his first major schizophrenic breakdown (when people look at his lab notebooks from this period they'll find that they're entirely full of rambling crap), Joe sabotages their final results *and* pisses in the coffee he gives to the visiting guy who's giving them funding. Between that and the aforementioned stimulant production sting, they're all expelled from the program. Joe finds crap work in the private sector etc etc,

heeheehee, you know, I really think you should write these 8g*. Billy as Baryshnikov- *flails*, because he'd just be so charismatic, and such a complete bitch to work with and just *flails* (also, Bourne's Swan Lake. That duet. Just mmmmphgnaaargh)

And Joe would be an incredible lecturer! He'd get away with SO MUCH! He'd somehow come up with this amazing theorem, and then spend the rest of the time high as a kite from fumes from the store cupboard *g* (and you should definitely write this one *beams* Them working together to find a new...something or other, ending up going on a roadtrip and just complete chaos!)

Number 2- OMG! I would LOVE to see that written.

Number 5, too. Freakin' hilarious. I'd say I'm scared of your brain, but it made me want an HCL/Hercules cross-over...

"A motherfuckin' dragon? You've got to be fucking kidding me?"

"Nah, we deal with these things at least once a month, right Herc? ... Herc? Herc? Oh crap, duck!"

[llassah]

2) yeah, god, ballerinas. The wrongrightness of the idea totally astounds me *g*

5) eeeeeeeeeeeeee! That would be amazing! What on earth would they make of each other *g*(either heacules/joe dick smackdown, or him as hercules...I can't decide which I love more *beams*
