writing meme

[meretricula]

in order to claim a drabble from aramley I must make an offering of my mad writing skillz. (the 'z' makes it ironic!) such is my love for aramley that I will make this sacrifice of my ego and offer myself up upon the altar of public opinion! and stuff.

The first ten people to comment in this post get to request a drabble of any pairing / character of their choosing from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability. (Or don't. I don't really care. These things are like those chain letters we used to do in second grade, honestly.)

any pairing or character I have written before is fair game! (if you aren't sure what I've written before, I do not blame you because I am a fandom slut, but a list of my fic can be found right here. the formatting took a while so do take advantage of the shiny new directory!) at the moment my fannish efforts have mostly been concentrated on Temeraire and tennis RPS, but don't feel obliged at all to stick with them. you can even ask for something I've never written before if you know I'm in the fandom. I really like writing to prompts: go wild!

ps: if you don't comment a lot, haven't commented recently, we don't really speak, whatever, it doesn't matter. if you want a drabble, please comment! most of the people who read this journal are here to listen to me bitch about my rl, not for the fic: if you want fic, seriously, ask for it. you are in a minority.

ETA: 6 "drabbles" claimed, 5 written, 4 claims still available! you know, if anyone's interested.

for aramley: excerpts from sweetheart vs. spitfire, et al. (Temeraire tennis AU)

for 6street: always better with someone you really love (Star Trek reboot)

for bronze_ribbons: you can do better than me (I can't do better than you) (tennis RPS)

for daughterofelros: four reasons Roger Federer wished the Japanese Davis Cup team would fall into a really deep hole (and one reason they weren't that bad after all) (tennis RPS / Prince of Tennis)

for t_lyrical: tinker tailor soldier sailor (Temeraire)

Oh darling. ♥

Please write me a Trek drabble. Pairing or character is up to you (but slash or gen, please, heterosexuality makes me break out in hives). I know you haven't written in Trek yet, but I also know that you totally want to.

ooooooh

*frets* Don't know which request I want to spew out, um--

Tharkay. Oh, hello, predictable choice.

Or Laurence/Tharkay, and if you can mention/add Sara in somehow, that would be, omgyesdowant. Still, whatever you write, I will explode with glee. :B

Let's say for a moment that I'm insane, and that reading 'Temeraire' and 'tennis RPS' in the same sentence has sparked some terrible connection in my brain, and now I'm craving tennis rps/temeraire crossover fic...could I request that? omg plz don't defriend me for being crazy D:

If not, then Rafa/Nole! Anything! :D

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

clearly I am NO LESS INSANE THAN YOU (http://meretricula.livejournal.com/113767.html). I would never defriend for lunatic plot bunnies! I would be forced to defriend myself on a twice-daily basis. ~hugs~

...may return to this prompt once the others are done. I feel there are depths of dementia yet to be plumbed.

[daughterofelros.livejournal.com]

why do you make me *choose*???

let's see... I would like Kirk/Sulu.

If that's being difficult, then... Rafa/Rodger?

In other news, watched the first season of Pushing Daisies, and deem all statements you made in reference to the show to be totally true-- especially the visual stuffs!

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

have given this great thought, and... yeah, not feeling the Kirk/Sulu. sorry. anything in particular you'd like to see for Rafa and Roger?

[daughterofelros.livejournal.com]

I love it all. :)


....except wings.

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

lol, you don't like wingfic? HERESY! I should make them tortured, angsty vampires, just to spite you. =D

[daughterofelros.livejournal.com]

Vampires would be hot. But not with wings. *shudders*

on the other hand, wouldn't it be a bit difficult to do all that running aroung, playing tennis and being extremely athletic during the day under bright bright sun if they were vampires?

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

you'd think, and yet there already exists a Twilight retelling. ~shudder~

but I've worked out what you're getting now. ~evil glee~ don't know what you're going to think about it, though!

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

oh man, this may stretch your capacity for all-encompassing love. but there are no wings. here you go! (http://meretricula.livejournal.com/117172.html)

[bronze-ribbons.livejournal.com]

I've got to hold off paying it forward (too many unfinished fics/memes in progress), but if you're okay with that, I'd love to see what you come up with in relation to the Spanish Armada, balsamic vinegar, and strawberries. As gen and/or filthy and/or cracktastic as you like. :-)

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

oh, so much yay, I've been sad that nobody seems to want tennis fic! I'll probably interpret Armada loosely rather than specifically the Davis Cup team, if that's okay. wouldn't want to exclude poor Nando! =D

[bronze-ribbons.livejournal.com]

Totally okay with me. (In all honesty, I don't even know all that much (yet*) about most of the Spanish players, but they've been total scene-stealers in the fedal fics I've read so far, so now I'm smitten.

(* Majorly obsessed at the moment, so odds are I'll know quite a bit more by the end of Wimbledon. Which is a long way of saying that snarky in-jokes or obscure allusions are also cool by me, should you feel like indulging in such.)

[meretricula.livejournal.com]

hate myself. here you go. (http://meretricula.livejournal.com/114238.html) hope you like threesomes and rimming.

ended up excluding Nando anyway, poor thing. let me know if you need spark-notes on any of the characters - I know Carlos Moya probably isn't on your radar, and David Ferrer might be too obscure. I love him though! he's wee and adorable. ~cuddles David~
