One Piece Idiotic Fic: A Kiss from the Captain's Daugther

[maldoror_gw]

The only excuse I have for this 'fic' is that it seemed like a good idea at the time. Unfortunately, since I'm mostly braindead these days, that's not saying much. I've completely stalled on my two serious fics, I spend my few free minutes a day playing stupid computer games (did finish Bioshock though, go me), and trying to find different folk

Heh.

Vary cute *KAWAII* story -- PLZ RITE MOREZ! - a sequel with teh real captain's daughters - One for each of them!!!11!!

*ahem*

Sorry.

On other topics - I was never too fond of lullabies myself - we stuck to a few old standards - the mockingbird one, and an appalachian folk song about dosing the baby with moonshine. Yeah. These classics we interspersed, eshala and I, with renditions of Tainted Love, by SoftCell, and various Kids in the Hall songs - These are the Daves I Know I know, and the Macaroni Song were favorites.

And now she's a perfectly normal teenager - complete with surly mood swings and faster than light typing skillz.

Ooooh, what's the appalachian folk song entitled? I might be able to find it online. So far, I'm singing to her about the White Doe who ends up hunted down and eaten by her brother, as well as an old French riddle/masonic song, the song about the morbid dolphin, 'What to do with a Drunken Sailor' reworded to 'What to do with a Cranky Baby', and a very bad rendition of VNV Nation's Illusion. I also sing Kumbaya but not too often because I don't want to scar her. So a song about moonshine would be right down my alley, I think :P I expect her to turn into a teenager regardless, so I'm ready for anything...

What'll I do with the Baby-O. Found a download here:http://www.aca-dla.org/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/Berea&CISOPTR=421&REC=11 - there's a bit a music history before she sings the song.

That is AWESOME and exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, thanks! There are other tunes on this I can use, too. I love folk songs, they usually have a great life story attached to them (unlike those soppy lullabies), something along the lines of 'everybody dies in the end' :P

(cracks up) That's brilliant. :)

ROFL! LOVE this one! Totally unexpected, and no, the captain's daughter wasn't Sueish at all. XD

ILU. ♥ I'm half-tempted to recommend this as an antidote on GAFF.

Grammar Nazis unite!

[thrice_shy]

Love your icon! Add one differentiating loose and lose and it'd be perfect ^_^

[maldoror_gw]

I'm not sure there's enough anti-MS venom for GAFF, after all there's at least a dozen other MS cliches I wasnt' able to include :P

I have not spawned at this point, but I'm informed by credible sources that a parental running monologue does, indeed, begin about the time the infant begins attempts to communicate.

"To save one from going mad," one of the sources (my mother) explained.

Re: Lullabies: I am working on a version of Zevon's "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner" for lever harp, which I think would make a spiffy lullaby.

They can still see his headless body stalking through the night
In the muzzleflash of Roland's Thompson gun

Now I wanna read your Mary-Suez...! Braids and crazy eyeballz plz!

[maldoror_gw]

That sounds like the kind of lullaby I sing her: I use oooooold French songs such as La Blanche Biche (woman gets turned into a white hart and killed and eaten by her brother), an old mason's riddle song, a lot of songs about couples dying of a broken heart, Scarborough Fair, etc.

I'd write about the Mary Sues but my keyboard would implode out of sheer horror.
