Song of the day: New River - The Oh Hellos
~
Oh no, I love this meme so much, I had to do the thing:
Give me the title of a hypothetical fic (and fandom/characters/pairing if you like, or tell me to go original if you are inclined) and I will:
-tell you what it's about
-recall my favorite or least favorite parts
-possibly attempt to write an excerpt of it
An (incomplete) list of fandoms I can work with: Castle Rock, Dead Like Me, The Devils' Carnival, Firefly, Hamilton, Hannibal, Leverage, Lucifer, MCU, The Magnus Archives, The Mechanisms, Myths and fairytales, New Albion/Shaperaverse, Sanctuary, Seanan McGuire/Mira Grant books (Espeically Toby/Newsflesh, and Sparrow Hill Road), Steven Universe, Welcome To Night Vale, White Collar

Title: Come Rest Your Head
Pairing (if MCU): Loki/Wanda
no subject
Date: 2019-01-17 01:12 am (UTC)There's magic to be found between them, not just in what they can do but who they are. Wanda challenges Loki and Loki keeps Wanda from falling too deep into her own mind. They've both made mistakes, both went through their own storms, but they know that about each other and have respect for it.
She's not sure she would ever describe Loki as safe but she goes to him when she can't get her head to shut up when everything is dark, and explosions and sharp shocks coursing through her entire body.
She can rest against him, feel his hands rest on her and know that, while he may not be scarier than what lives within her mind, her memories and her fears and all the damage, she knows he cna survive it and be with her in the morning.
~
My favorite part: Wanda giving herself over to trust in this person she knows full well she has no reason to have any faith in. Loki doing small acts to earn her trust and learning the joys of what it's like to have someone to do that for. They're both still jabbing at each other the entire time and testing how far the other will go but that's fun to play with.
My least favorite part: How do you even write Loki? Like seriously? I'm terrible at this and do not want to even try again, because this was so awkward.

Date: 2019-01-17 12:55 am (UTC)I don't know how I got here but here we go:
So like, there are distinct images coming to mind with this fic and I have no idea how they sort themselves out but here's a summary:
Henry/Caged!Henry (The Kid)
The Kid is back in the cage and Henry is there, taking up the mantle of keeping him locked up. The Kid can feel time crawling on him, seconds falling from his fingertips as he lives in the darkness again. He can't do this though, can't keep lying down while the time and the universe crackle against his skin..
He reaches out and when he does, the other Henry doesn't pull away.
~
My favorite part is the weird, slow burn, power exchange-y bits because I'm predictable. The Kid slowly luring Henry to get closer and closer, and eventually open the cage and let him out makes me happy as well as the weird pseudo-voyeurism that I got to wrap in there with the idea of Time being alive and hungry and feeding off of the two of them existing in such close proximity.

XD
no subject
Date: 2019-01-17 03:45 am (UTC)My other idea for the fic was the kid actually being a weird time being that steals the identity of other people to carve a bit of existence for himself and while he should not actually exist against Henry, he is and it's like a drug for him, so every time they're close, he's feeding off of the strings that bind them and...things. And at some point, they probably fuck while the kid simultaneously feeds off of their paradox.
...Hi, you said you would not mind weird for this fandom and I am excited to have someone to be weird at XD

Date: 2019-01-17 10:07 am (UTC)This is shameless roadtrip fic. I haven't hammered out the details yet but it involves Neal and El plotting to get Peter to take a vacation, Peter agreeing as long as he gets to navigate and, at some point, there is a broken down car at a weird tourist trap.
It's tropey as hell and I don't even care because it makes me so, so happy. I'm easy, okay? DOn't judge.

Date: 2019-01-17 06:06 pm (UTC)someALL tropes, and this has me so intrigued. I'd love to read a fleshed out scene or longer story - and now I'm picturing them at weird tourist traps in America, and having fun with that. thanks for brightening a drear day at work.no subject

no subject
Date: 2019-01-17 10:10 am (UTC)This is establishing relationship fic. It's about feelings and pining and going after the people you love and doing whatever you have to in order to keep them safe. Each of the three has some challenges to overcome and sometimes it feels like the end keeps moving further and further away, that a happy ending just isn't in reach, but they strive and support each other and love one another too fiercely to give up halfway.

Date: 2019-01-22 11:25 pm (UTC)In which Wanda and Bucky find each other post-AoU and she brings him back to the tower and they are both full of grief and awkward and pain but they teach each other how to function around new people and learn how to be themselves without borders and with music to help them communicate with each other. This is also the story where Bucky teaches himself how to dance through Youtube videos and Natasha, Wanda learns how to batch cook for the Avengers and both of them do a lot of singing in kitchens with each other.

Date: 2019-01-17 10:15 am (UTC)This is a weird story, as it is told in bits and pieces, glimpses through someone who you don't know yet. It's established that they are on a trip but you don't know where or what the end goal is. The story dances around locations and the person never gets a name. There are roadside attractions, grifters and pickpockets, and a heavy feeling of having forgotten something.
In the end, the story is about learning. It's about learning about yourself, about the things you can lose and about the things you gain from setting out on a journey. Also, there may be cryptids, I haven't decided yet.

no subject
Date: 2019-01-22 11:32 pm (UTC)George finds herself hopping universes, watching different AUs of herself, of what would happen if she had not died, an apocalypse scenario, if she had met Ned the Pie Maker, and probably a few other things. She hops universes, changing different things in each one until she can make it back to her home world and really, it's just an excuse for me to play with a mix of AUs and possibly Five THings fic but I'm okay with that.
Favorite part: THe bit where the Reapers are confronted with the end of the world and are trying to figure out what happens after that is done.
