fannish5Name five totally self-indulgent story ideas. (The fanfic you would write if you didn't care if you had an audience and also had no shame.)
1. Batman Begins/Superman Returns crossover in which Bruce Wayne and Richard White are roommates at Princeton and wind up falling in love but are terrible for each other and it's just a big mess of heartbreak.
...Oh, wait. I AM writing that. And there are, let's see... ::counts:: 5? People who will read it? Hee! Let it never be said that I have shame.
2. Grey's Anatomy fic in which George and Izzie wind up married and happy with lots of pretty, brilliant babies. And Alex and Addison are also married with pretty, genius babies and all these babies have playdates. And are babysat by Bailey's baby who grows up. ;) No, really, maybe not something that saccharine. But there would be George/Izzie and Alex/Addison goodness. Probably (at the moment) something about how Alex and Addison are good for each other and help each other be better people. They are my Vanilla Latte OTP.
As for George and Izzie, it would be about how their best-friendship turns into something more and they're just Meant To Be. They so totally need to wind up little old people in rocking chairs on a porch somewhere.
(I don't write Grey's fic because the show is so awesome I don't dare to touch it, but. If I did, it would probably have something to do with those pairings. Once, I would have included Cristina/Burke, but they're pissing me off.)
3. RENT fic in which Mark winds up in the ICU and everyone worries about him and then it's all okay, but everyone appreciates Mark just a little bit more. Except it's better than that synopsis sounds. There is lots of medical terminology.
....No comments from the Peanut Gallery, thankyouverymuch. I totally have
Shame? What's that?
4. Batman fic in which Bruce Wayne is Dick Grayson's biological father. Somehow. And his mother, ideally, would be Selina Kyle. But he was still raised by the Flying Graysons and the whole circus thing still happened, but I don't know how I would ever make it work out that way. Also, no idea of plot besides that idea, which I love.
Either that, or a fic where Bruce and Selina (or some other woman, but I LOVE Bruce/Selina) are married and have a son--hello, Dick!--but then for whatever reason, she leaves. So Bruce is stuck as a single father. Until she comes back years later for her son, and there is TEH DRAMA. Ahem.
This really is the most self-indulgent idea I have. I'd love to see it, though.
5. Twilight/New Moon fic. Edward, of course, probably during New Moon and I won't say more for spoiler purposes, but if I thought I could do him justice, I might try it. But I don't know if I could. It'd be angsty as all get out, the big melodramatic angst-pot that he is. ::squishes him::
6. Prince of Egypt fic, which would be much like the song "Plagues" in which Rameses and Moses sing about how they were brothers and now things have gone all to hell. But part of why I love this movie is how it plays up the whole Moses and Rameses were raised as brothers thing. I mean, heck, that could NOT have been fun. Moses pretty much killed his brother's son. This does not lead to hugs and puppies.
I just won't ever write it because the song pretty much covers it and it feels a bit too... non-ficish, I guess. But I read novels about biblical stories, so why fic is different, I don't know. Huh. Anyway, yeah. Something terrifically angsty about those two. Maybe it's just that it feels wrong to feel so sympathetic to Rameses. Oh, Ralph Fiennes.
Well, maybe I would. This is why this is # 6. The song does it so well, what I'd like to play with. (Hell, it's RALPH FIENNES singing, come on.)
You who I called brother, how could you have come to hate me so?
Is this what you wanted?
Then let my heart be hardened and never mind how high the cost may grow,
This will still be so:
I will never let your people go.
I mean... wow. ::loves that part of the song like WHOA::
That was very fun.
ETA: I added a sixth. Because... well. I just did. iTunes played the song, it's not my fault.

Date: 2007-01-13 05:58 am (UTC)I am SURPRISED at the amount of love I have for this ship. Yesterday I went from "whoa, wtf?" to "oh, it's cute! I like!" in about two seconds flat. And then I rewatched it tonight and spent the whole episode in a bit of a squee over them.
They snuck up on me, but they could be so good for each other.
I want to slap Burke and Cristina. Grow up, you two. =P

Right now I have severe Alex!love, which surprises me as I spent much of last season and the first hating him. =P But, oh, Alex. Your vanilla latte melted me.

Not only that, but they'll talk about it just as much as you do. ♥

I'm really thinking about this now, no thanks to you. I shall have to overanalyze it for a while longer and re-read New Moon and figure out minuscule details that I'll later omit before any real writing happens, though.
Although given my thought process, why should my writing be any less chaotic?
