Holiday Ficlets

[hihoplastic]

Stolen from ijemanja

You: prompt me with a fandom/pairing/character + some kind of theme, word, lyrics, whatever.

I: will write you a 100 word drabble (at least) by Dec 31

* Anyone can request a drabble - friended or not, random passers-by and lurkers welcome.

* Primary fandoms: House, The Pretender
* Fandoms I will attempt to write in: Angel, Buffy, Sports Night, The West Wing, How I Met Your Mother, Firefly... whatever else I've seen? It's a short list, sadly.
* Crossovers are excellent.
* So is Cuddy. I will write Cuddy/anybody. ...I should probably put a disclaimer on that, shouldn't I?

You know what? I totally want your version of Lyle/Cuddy. :D So:
The Pretender/House, Lyle/Cuddy, "there are things about him she doesn't question." Bonus points if you throw in Lyle/Parker and/or Parker/Jarod. Or, oh! House/Parker, lols.

*smirks*

I should have seen that coming.

I'm trying to decide who would win - House or Parker. Hrm....

*plots*

I can make it srsly dark and f'd up right?

[antiqueskies.livejournal.com]

:D

Could you imagine if Parker was a patient? I wish I could write House's character, actually, because that would be really funny. And then Jarod would totally show up and make him look like an idiot.

I can make it srsly dark and f'd up right?
I would expect nothing less! Of course, if you can make it a humor fic I would be all for that, too. Lyle's just really hard to put into a humorous context....

[hihoplastic.livejournal.com]

Lyle is really hard to WRITE, PERIOD. *whines* It's fast becoming all about Cuddy with a little bit of peripheral Lyle f'ing things up and House and Wilson trying not to act like they care except they really, really do and. Harumph.

I don't think I speak Lyle :(

[antiqueskies.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't speak Cuddy, so fair's fair. She was mostly in the background in mine as well.

Lyle is hard, because his motivations are never really known. I have a couple different versions I draw from depending on the tone of the fic/scene. (This is what happens when you write 20 stories about one character....) I think I've overanalyzed him to death.

Of course, what my ability to understand Lyle says about me is...something I'm not going to dwell on tonight. :D

[hihoplastic.livejournal.com]

Hehee, that's exactly how I am with cuddy. It's damn near impossible for me to write anything nowadays that doesn't have cuddy in it. Failure, what?

I feel like, someday, we should try to cowrite a Lyle/Cuddy fic. With both our brains working on it, it'd probably be far too disturbing to ever post anywhere, but. ;)
Hehee. Not dwelling. That sounds like a good plan. Lalala.

[antiqueskies.livejournal.com]

Hey, I still have an open fanfic100 claim on him that I do plan on eventually probably writing something for. (I'm not lacking ideas, just motivation....) Then it'll be 115 stories or something total, lols.

WE TOTALLY SHOULD. Omg, we'd scare everyone. HAHAHA.
No, actually, I think that's a brilliant idea. After writing Lyle/Cuddy I totally could have gone for more of them, but since I was the only one ever to write it...there wasn't any more. (And now I'm totally re-reading my own fic just to get a fix. Sigh.)

[hihoplastic.livejournal.com]

100 Lyle fics?? Holy. Your brain is going to be even more warped after that... Hee.

I know! I always want to read Pretender/House crossovers... except there's only like, yours. Which, is wonderful, don't get me wrong. But I want mooooaoarr because I'm a greedy little bitch.

Do you want to write your holiday ficlet prompt together? I can send you the randomassity that I have so far... it truly is quite bad and makes no sense. But you could fix it! And we could make it epic.

Or we could start over. Either way.

I should so not be plotting this until after finals.... oh well. Fail.

[antiqueskies.livejournal.com]

I know, right?! LOL. It will be awesome.

We should like, make a community. And force people to join. And then force them to write us fic.
except there's only like, yours.
I KNOW. I hate having to read my own fic, but it's the ONLY THING OUT THERE.

I vote you write it yourself and we start over, just because I just looked at the prompts you gave me and I just got two separate ideas for House/Pretender crossovers. :D

Eh, that never stopped me either.

Edit: I do offer up my services on helping you work out what Lyle would do, though. His brain is a scary place.

[hihoplastic.livejournal.com]

Hehee. Okay! That sounds good. So does the community/forcible writing by unassuming individuals.

I may take you up on that. Bah. Lyle. Why you so deep?

[antiqueskies.livejournal.com]

:D We are evil.

Lyle doesn't seem that complicated until you try to write him. Then you're like, "Whaaaaaat?" Haha.
Anyway, just let me know. I'm just hangin' around, watching BSG all day, every day. :D I have time to spare.
