Meme # 1: fandom-guessing

For ambientlight:
( Honesty (is such a lonely word) [tactics, Ouran, MaLoki, Yami no Matsuei, Mushishi, Peacemaker Kurogane] )


For that_oneill_guy:
( sugar for my honey [Cafe Kichijouji de, Ouran, Peacemaker Kurogane, Scrapped Princess] )


Meme #2: 3 fics that you think I would never write (not actually posted, since most of you probably think that there is nothing I wouldn't write), though ambientlight did suggest un-self-conciously sappy, wholly unironic, not-even-possessed-of-wry-humour happy fluffy pairingfic - which I had (sort-of) previously written:

Save The Last Dance For Me (Muu-chan/Sugino), and Michael Buble's cover of the song that inspired it, which IMO is a little closer in tone and Sugino-voice to the fic than the Drifers' or Harry Connick Jr's versions.


The titles of all 3 fics have something in common ^_~

The idea for this arose from q's remix invite, so I suppose this might be considered a remix of q's remix/riff of my original sentence? Except that it uses said sentence with a necessary one-word change, so apologies if it isn't considered a remix. All puns, POV shifts and O-C/OOC purple prose fully intended.

The bit of correspondence is partly the result of what little could be obtained from this bout of madness
And for the multimedia effect: from the very talented evey_w, used here out of the original context, with apologies and thanks

That belated fandom meme wherein I speak to fandoms I have known and loved, and anyone who guesses any of them correctly gets a drabble(s) incorporating characters of your choice from said fandoms. Initial comments will be screened.

1. The sheer amount of (canonical) pairingfic you've generated is impressive, and it's a pity that I can no longer contribute. tactics
2. I wish I had known you earlier, since there is so much in the way of crack that you could offer! Godchild aka Count/Earl Cain and Cafe Kichijouji de
3. Technically speaking, you're not one of mine because I never wrote specifically for you, but you're just too cracktastic to resist. Ouran High School Host Club
4. Somehow I keep returning to you, even though you're so...over by now. Matantei Loki Ragnarok
5. Judging by my output for most some of the others, you should be easy, but I simply can't do it D: Yami no Matsuei
6. We had some good times, but I don't think we're meant for each other, due to fundamental differences in personality. Mushishi
7. Considering I don't identify with you at all, I'm surprised at my output - though that probably explains its lack of quality. Peacemaker Kurogane
8. I think we work well together, though most would beg to differ. Scrapped Princess and Van Helsing

EDIT (3/5/07): now with answers and unscreened comments

From ambientlight: comment with a pairing, an angst&doom rating (scale of 1 to 5, 5 for DOOOOOOOM), and a single-word prompt for a ficlet (which may or may not appear on Valentine's Day depending on time of comment).

Any fandoms which I have written (Maloki, Tactics, Mushishi, Sutepri, Peacemaker Kurogane, Yami no Matsuei, Ouran etc) are fair game. Any pairings or crossovers welcome. Any number of requests will be considered. Other types of ratings to be advised by distributor.

Taking my cue from LJ-friends:

Please comment with a list of 5 things e.g. "5 Offers Kantarou Would Never Refuse", or "5 Cases That Muraki Does Not Want To Manage".
I'll post the answers to your Top 5s in a separate post(s).
Then you post this offer in your own journal (purely optional)

At the risk of being the curmudgeonly lone dissenting voice in the laudatory gushings over the "Bug Master" screen-shots at mushishi, must say I am not terribly impressed by the previews of Joe Odagiri's turn as Ginko which seem mostly to involve looking vacantly unwashed in the great outdoors. (And what's with the unfortunately obvious dye-job and the frayed and stitched peasant-shirt, rather than the modern look of his clothes which the author deliberately emphasised?)

And though "Nui" may have been intended to look calmly mysterious like the Mona Lisa, the impression given is of other aspects of that work of art: static and slightly androgynous.

Tanyuu with that hairstyle (and vaguely OOC expression)reminds me of an angsty heroine in a Taiga drama, e.g. the Shinsengumi one. What's next, Ginko channelling Saitou Hajime?

Jumping on the bandwagon after xsmoonshine and ambientlight:

Anyone on the f-list gets to request a drabble from you. Cannot guarantee that will be exactly 100 words. In return, they have to post this in their journal and write a drabble for you (completely optional). Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.

Current fandoms: MaLoki, Tactics, Scrapped Princess, Peacemaker Kurogane, Mushishi (only up to episode 17 pls), Yami no Matsuei (though may be a little rusty), Van Helsing, Arcana (yumearashi, I'm looking at you)

Stolen from various people:

Give me the concept for a multi-chapter epic fanfic, and I'll write a scene from it/a synopsis of each chapter

Alternatively, give me a line and a fandom, and I'll write a scene with it (sort of like those 1-sentence things, but with actual plot/characterisation)

Or you could combine the above two, as well ^_^
