Current Music:

Awhile back, [info]debc wrote an entry about how she thought it was silly for fic authors to get upset if someone else had the same story idea that they did. Since I agreed with her, I came up with this fic challenge Idea.

The Variations on a Plot Fic Challenge

The Challenge: I'll issue a story idea that was suggested and voted on by all of you. Take the idea and write between 500 to 1,000 words on it. It can be any fandom, any pairing, gen, het, slash. But it has to be this plot.

The Plot: Out of several suggestions, this is the story idea that won.

Two characters meet once before canon says they did


The Due Date: August 31, 2004. Three months from today. Send me the link to where you posted it so I can read it and make a comprehensive list of all the stories.

Have fun!
(Any words to say)
Weeee! Not the one I voted on, but still weeee! LOL

Now I just have to figure out who to write it on, but I got time. :)
(Reply) (Thread)
Fantastic! Spread the word.:D
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Mwahaha. I want to discuss this with you face-to-face. *g*
(Reply) (Thread)
*LOL* You do, huh? Oh, boy.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
As you can tell from my LJ post, I'm desperate for suggestions! Damn. The one that I really didn't want to do. Damn damn.

I'm still going to participate. I have many fandoms. One of'em should give me a measley 1,000 word fic.
(Reply) (Thread)
*LOL* I'm sorry. It was the one that had the most votes.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
May we participate if we hadn't voted?
(Reply) (Thread)
Of course. It's open to anyone and everyone.:D
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Ooooo this is gonna be interesting.

I gotta do some thinking on this one.

Will you post links to all the fics so we can all read them?
(Reply) (Thread)
Oh, one I suggested won. Guess that means I'd better produce something huh?
(Reply) (Thread)
*LOL* Can't wait to see what you write.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Sounds fun. I may just have to give it a go... ;)
(Reply) (Thread)
OH dear! OK, I'm in... and pimping, so you may get some slash!sync buddies over here.
(Reply) (Thread)
OK...the more fandoms, the better. And I'm cool with RP fic. I started with Backstreet Boys (but mine was het).
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Good, I forgot to ask about that.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
OT, but you're challenge response is up, over at [info]hl_springfever. So you don't miss it!
(Reply) (Thread)
Wonderful! Must go read.

Oh, man, I've got to write mine.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Mine bit last night. It's almost finished. I've just got some smut left.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Well, I have an idea. I just have to sit down and write it.

Say, do you remember Rebecca's last name? It's been too long since I've seen that ep.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Hmm... No, I don't. I can find out for you, though.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Cool. That would be great.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
From the Highlander filled mind of [info]toshiro, Rebecca's last name was Horne.

We keep him for the useless knowledge.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Wheeee! Thank you. I don't know if it was the same before she met Amanda, but I might be able to work with it.

Oh, speaking of stories, did you see my Highlander/Smallville crossover?
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
No! I must have missed it! Where?

And what happened to that Richie fic you wanted me to beta!?
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
1) It's posted at [info]highlander_fic.

2) Richie is being difficult again. I haven't written it yet. I do need to write my springfever story, though.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)


Hope you like 'em! The Chris ones are obvious, but I used that older pic of Piper just because I liked it. LOL
(Reply) (Thread)
*Gasp* They're fantabulous! I love them. Thank you so much!
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
I'm so glad you like them. You're very, very welcome. It was good to see Chris again. ;)
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Even if I don't get to see him again on screen, he will live on in my fic.
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Ye gods! I just read the challenge line again (you know I read this last night, but now I'm having the freakout) -- it says two characters meet once before canon says they did... does that mean that it has to be a one-off meeting? Because I've got this little universe going on in one of my fandoms < points to icon > and I've written the first meeting of the two characters as a response to this, and it builds into something that's totally uncanon... this is probably making no sense to you, but is that allowable for the purposes of this challenge?
(Reply) (Thread)
Don't panic. Breathe. Relax.

Now, I think it's perfectly fine if you take it into a noncanon AU universe. I know I would enjoy reading it.

So doing...

May the gods of fanfic shine kindly on your challenge.

Nope, not yet. I'll post that list on the 31st. Thank you for the link.:D
(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)
Hello ::waves:: I don't remember how I came across this or I'd tell ya where I stumbled in from. Sorry.

But I did write a story for it? And managed to get it to exactly 1000 words, which was not as easy as it sounds.

Harry meets Remus for the first time.

Survive - Lacuna Coil

Sometimes I feel alone in a million crowd
An outsider wandering alone without
Any words to say
They can't explain
The desire to overcome the pain
Feel the breath that's always getting away from me

Am I dreaming it all?
I will never be afraid

I'll survive in this nothing, leading nowhere.
I survive, feeling strong for how much longer?
I'll survive in this nothing leading nowhere
I survive

A voice inside of me
That keeps on teasing
As sweet as like a whisper from the lips of pain
And so many steps that I can't make
I can't take the chance, release the brake
And the breath just keeps on getting away

Am I dreaming it all?
I will never be afraid

I'll survive in this nothing, leading nowhere.
I survive, feeling strong for how much longer?
I'll survive in this nothing leading nowhere
I survive
