...or the Childermass one. Whichever. And I'm currently poking at that one exchange fic of mine that you are reading, so there should be a little more of it in your inbox by the time I go to sleep. In order to return the favor for being awesome and making me write, here's YOUR assignment:
300 words of Yuletide. You are going to pick an idea and write it, and I don't care if it's bad, okay? You are going to do that and then send it to me.
The Mummy AU is incredibly tempting. Gerard is SO CHARMED by Egypt and keeps trying to wear giant hats to protect his complexion but he forgets because he gets so excited by the antiquities and the markets and studying the irrigation systems, and now he's sulky because he's getting a TAN, BLAST IT ALL. Frank just rolls his eyes and Mikey sighs and buys him another parasol. Gerard will probably just forget and drop this one in the Nile again, too.
OMG. I will try! Especially if I know I am getting amazing lovely ficbits from you in exchange.
Aahaha, I did not send you that part! There is a lot of Jane being like, "Put on this eyeliner for me, Will?" And Laurence being like, "..." and then her cocking a hip and unzipping her jacket a bit more and him being like "OKAY DO YOU PREFER COAL BLACK OR COFFEE BROWN?" And then IDK IDK maybe she's like "Hahaha, those two boys are in love with you," and Laurence sulks because she's just taunting him and making fun of his schoolboy crushes and it's not very nice, and she's like, "No, seriously, they want you." But then I want Jane to never leave and it all gets muddled and argh. ARGH MY BRAIN.
...I am still playing in the RPG. I won't lie. YOU SHOULD JOIN. Have you read any of it yet?
This is me! Only worse because I signed up to Yuletide on the whim of some madwoman who used the deep affection I have for her, and possible abuse of our psychic link, to make me think that it would be a good idea and I don't even have my own copy of the fandom in question because ARG new job that takes up 12 hours a day and also I really want to see more of the ghost!fic and as for me, poor Captain Allen is feeling very left out only not really because today I put him in a harness but that's by the by, so really it is Adam who should be feeling left out and maybe he should go sit with Gee and wait for our muses to return while they talk tiny cute boys and make up?

OMG, I wish I was close by because I have copies of the fandom source in question! And you know I will definitely beta for you! BECAUSE ILTHATFANDOM OMG. Also if I were closer we could huddle in a heap together and weep into our tea and plot ghostfic/steampunk crossovers. Which may or may not be one of my plans for my 12 Days of Christmas Madness. :D? (I know, I'm a madwoman.)
Also, YES THAT SOUNDS AMAZING. Gerard + Adam = love.

I might go buy a copy today when I go into town to buy dull things like a bus pass and less dull things like Christmas presents.
Truly, you are a crazy person, but that crossover might actually MAKE MY LIFE. If you ever want to chat about it? :D
They are lovelovelove and win. The pressures of responsibility and the problem of falling of love with your best friend who keeps touching you inappropriately. They could chat for hours!

Why is this not a ticky box poll so I can ticky ALL THE FRANKS AND GERARDS? And why isn't one of the options FINISH GHOST FIC, WOMAN (;____: because I piiine)?
At any rate, you know how I feel about the Mummy AU, as in you know, DO IT
I OBJECT TO THE FACT THAT THERE ARE NO TICKY BOXES IN THE FIRST POLL. As I would like to tick at least three of them. (Also, wait, isn't Byron!Brendon finished? Is there more? *clutches it to chest*)
because gosh darnit if I can't find time to talk to you on a freakin Sunday morningt_lyricalDecember 6 2009, 18:52:15 UTC
bb, good luck with Yuletide! I totally know the feeling, but I'm sure you'll come up with something AMAZING. Unfortunately I had to default out of Yuletide because I thought I would have time to reread the series I signed up for, but ugghh. The canon is really intricate. (And it doesn't help that I owe, like, a bajillion giftfics for birthdays and Christmas too, aaahh) But I sure as hell will try to put in some stories once Yuletide Madness opens up. >:C
>> which began as a fun OT3 piece and somehow has devolved into a Roland/Laurence kinkfest
FFFFFFFFFFFFFF--ohyes.
And awww, I think it'll be real cute to do 12-days-of-christmas fic.
