So many WIPs, so little time

Nov 23, 2010 23:22

I have reached that point with my WIP list lately where no matter what I sit down to work on, there will be that nagging voice in the back of my mind telling me I really ought to be working on one of the other ones (it would be nice if this at least deterred me from compounding the problem by starting new stuff, but... well, let's just say that ( Read more... )

fic, guilty gear, cable&deadpool, writing-related blather, xxxholic

This is evil, for the record. Making people choose between GG awesome and C&D awesome...

I am actually a little surprised to realise there are people reading both! ^^; (Obviously my memory of who comments on what is less than entirely perfect.)

Err, there are a couple of one-shots in particular that I'd love to see... Do you accept suggestions?

What with the current length of my WIP list I probably shouldn't... but you could always throw the ideas my way anyway and see if they ping.

Ok, here they are :)

First of all, I'm sure you know that animated video of Guilty Gear X, with Ky's infamous, immortal, incredibly narmy, hilarious "OH NO I'M FALLING!" line. I'd love to read a fanfiction about that. Maybe something with the "Embarrassing Rescue" trope ( ... )

You know, I actually did read a fic about that scene once, which I found somewhere in the bowels of The Pit way back when I first got into the fandom and (I can only assume) was desperate enough for fic to read anything, because it was drivel. Between that association and how my default reaction to bad dubbing is to mentally filter it out, I don't think there's much I could do with that one ( ... )

Hi! I've been wondering through your journal for the DpC fic and must say totally love! <3 (Especially the high school AU... Surprising but most probably because a high school fic may be cliche in other fandoms but I don't I have seen any with WADE! Definitely not any which take themselves seriously?)

(Also, do you mind if I friend you?)

Aw, thanks! =D

I think there's one or two more HS AUs lurking in the cabledeadpool archives somewhere, though I don't remember much about them so they couldn't have particularly grabbed me. It really is the ultimate in cliche-fic scenarios (probably thanks to ridiculous overuse in fandoms dominated by teenaged fans), but they *are* a real guilty pleasure of mine when you find one done well - and canon has already given us Teen!Nate, and Wade is mentally about fifteen at the best of times so it wasn't much of a stretch. ;)

Definitely not any which take themselves seriously?Oh, don't remind me, I am actually a little embarrassed it ended up as such a serious fic. ^^; It's like, in order to justify a bit of cracky fun with Nate and Wade meeting in highschool, I had to write a whole treatise on how Cable's life would have been different if he'd ( ... )

i feel unqualified to vote as we don't know one another, but i thought it would be polite to explain that i'm adding you for "your public posts interest me" purposes.

Hey, don't let that stop you, most of the other people who've voted are names I've never even seen before. Half the interest of polls is getting opinions from people who don't usually get around to commenting.

That does tend to be my default assumption when I'm not told otherwise. ;)
