Are these not the most fun things ever? No plots, instant gratification. Why have we ever tried to write longer stuff?

[saucydiva]

Someone agreed to write this college TA Pawnee thing, right?

[stillscape]

I'm not real sure if anyone agreed to write it, or if we were just arguing about the logistics of the AU.

[craponaspatula]

I will do it for one of my 100 pixel illustrations.

[rikyl]

What about TA/student? If it's an AU, maybe you could play with the ages to make that work.

[stillscape]

I would actually think Ben either transferred in after an unbearable year at UM, or he took a year off since he was supposed to be mayor for a while, so he gets there during sophomore year and Leslie is the RA/orientation leader.

My experience with large research-based institutions suggests that any school the size of IU, all the TAs are grad students, not undergrads. Or if they're undergrads, they would be seniors only.

[rikyl]

Right, that's why I said play with the ages to make it work. Whoever the TA was would have to be older.

[stillscape]

Also, saucydiva is the one with the subplots problem. I'm the one with the let's-put-in-every-possible-reference-to-canon and there's-no-such-thing-as-too-many-details problems.

[rikyl]

That is true.

[saucydiva]

Whaaaaaat no no no I don't have a problem I can quit whenever I want to.

Also, I've written lots of things without subplots, like

like

like

Oh! That story I wrote above, about Sue's Salads, that one only had one plot.

[princess_george]

Sorry, no, that had the Tanya vs Leslie plot, and a Chris x salad sub-plot, and a Chris x Pawnee sub-plot, and a Chris x Leslie sub-plot...

[saucydiva]

princess_george" the point was to convince people I don't do too many subplots. Just promise you won't count any subplots in my fics, ok?

[craponaspatula]

And it would be delightful and we would all laugh and cry and wait with bated breath for every chapter.

[rikyl]

This is true as well.

[saucydiva]

I think it's an excellent prompt and I'm going to start writing it.

[rikyl]

Yes!
