The holidays are fast approaching, and while I'm drowning under projects and papers and stuff right now, soon I won't be! Yay! So, I figure I'll have time to do this:

Gifts Gifts Gifts!

And when I say that I mean fic. I'm broke and untalented in most other arts, but that's what I have to offer, so if there's fic you want written, leave me a ( Read more... )

This is such a cool idea. I wish I had the time to do it!

So my request is shamefully specific (and of course, please don't feel like you have to write it exactly like this or even write it at all, if it doesn't ~grab your interest): I would love some Will/Sue, set during "New York," where Will, who's still feeling sympathetic towards Sue after Jean's death (and lonely himself, because he thinks he's leaving Emma), has invited her to chaperone the kids with him at Nationals. And Sue goes, because she's lonely even though she won't admit it, and because she really does sort of care about the kids in her own way. And they have to share a hotel room (maybe with one bed?) because of budgeting or There Is Only One Room Left or whatever? And idk, maybe they go and get drunk after the kids lose and come back to the hotel room and then ~things happen. Or, like, they start off very decidedly on either side of the bed when they go to sleep but sort of unintentionally move towards each other during the middle of the night while they're ( ... )

You leave awesome prompts, jsyk. I already have an idea for how the Only One Room can happen :DD I'm a little nervous about writing Sue, because omg it's Sue, but I have tons of thoughts about this, soooooo. I'll see if I can get a start on it this weekend!

oh my goodness I am VERY EXCITED. :DDDDD

You can totally write Sue, don't be nervous! (And when in doubt, default to hair jokes, pop-culture references and bizarre histories.)

That's fantastic advice, omg. Oh, Sue, oh Sue, you were once so glorious. I will do my level best to write you as such :D

I love your fic and I love gifts! So excited!

Anything you want to write for me tbh. It can be Buffy, Glee, or Doctor Who. Those are the fandoms I am in right now. I also don't mind if you feel the need to merge/crossover fandoms. ;)

I'd love to try some Buffy! What pairings do you ship? I'm sure we've talked about this before, but I don't remember what you said exactly.

I shipped a lot of stuff most of my ships were Willow, Xander, Oz, Giles, Faith, or Cordelia based. So I guess to narrow it down, any of those five in any combo you are inspired by.

Oooh, I'm really nervous about requesting something very difficult or out there. The variety is only so you don't get trapped by things you can't write. You are so awesome for trying this ♥

------

I'd really, really love a high school AU of the x-files where Mulder and Scully are still investigating the paranormal but are also faily, dorky teenagers. Sort of a Veronica Mars type vibe? Maybe he's on the school news paper, or is the resident loner of the school or something? I don't imagine either of them is incredibly popular and maybe they've never had much cause to talk to each other before until mysterious events throw them into each other's orbit?

OR

Wash (a must) and either Mal or Simon from Firefly pretend dating (maybe it's necessary to gain access to a particular area on some party planet idek)

OR

Blaine and Sam plotting some joint enterprise that is really amazing and awesome and romantic (and possibly entirely ill advised) to surprise Kurt and Mercedes. Maybe for Christmas?

*___________* Those are all fantastic prompts, omg. It's gonna be really, really hard to choose, lemme tell ya. Do you have any particular preference?

ashmole November 29 2011, 06:41:48 UTC
I think the X-files AU is the top one. I've never read any X-files fic of any kind though so it'll all be new to me and I have no idea what I'd like and not like. At a guess I think that the highschool/teenage setting is to slightly up the dorky and fun factor but the scary and dangerous aspect of the original show is v. important to me too.

Yeah, maybe that, it just feels quite demanding though and I haven't read anything but Glee for quite a while so it's a bit nervous making. :DDDD

Welp, I'll see what I can do! I mean, Mulder has the whole broody, snarky, obnoxious teenager thing down to an art in canon, so it shouldn't be nearly as much work as you're worried it'll be :DD I've never actually watched VM, but I'll find an ep or two to get a feel for the vibe. Is it true that it's a little Buffy-esque?

(I was totes hoping you'd go for this one. I can't seem to resist writing xf aus, lol ♥)

Okayyyy now I have to do decisions. *sigh*

But I think I'll go for Dollhouse; anything about either Topher or Adelle, preferably angsty and with apocalyptic undertones. Or overtones. Whatever. Errr, I don't really care about ships, but you can do Topher/Adelle if you want or Topher + Adelle if you want or Topher/someone else or Adelle/someone else, etc. Like, just because I didn't specify a ship doesn't mean there can't be one. /badwithwords

aw, thanks for doing this cute idea :)

wow, ashmole's prompt is seriously awesome! But if after that, you still have a hankering to write XF fic then can I request a fic in which Mulder and Scully debate whether or not to go see "The Phantom Menance"?

or maybe something taking place in the early seasons where Scully is like, "lol who is this weird but also cute douche they sent me to work with?" and is totally exasperated with Mulder?

idk idk, anything would be cool with me tbqh.
