Commemorate My Important Events: Prompt Me

[allyndra]

I just looked at my calendar and realized two things:

1. I had my two year fic-writing anniversary last month.
2. I turn 30 next month.

Since I missed my fic-iversary, I think I would like to combine it with my birthday. It would be an awful lot of fun to do a bunch of ficlets and drabbles leading up to the big 3-0. And so I need your help. Prompt me! Help me come up with a bunch of bunnies to celebrate my fic-iversary and birthday. I can probably write in any of these fandoms:

BtVS/AtS
Firefly/Serenity
Harry Potter
Stargate Atlantis
Entourage
High School Musical
Torchwood
ETA: Oops, missed some
Eureka
Hollyoaks
Good Omens
Across the Universe

I could also try for:
Smallville
Roswell
House

And if anyone wants a fusion or crossover, I'd be willing to try. You know (or should, if you're here) that I write slash, but could do gen, too.

So prompt me, people! Give me your neglected pairing, your cracked out ideas,
your huddled masses of plot bunnies yearning to breathe free. I can't promise to write all of them, but I'll give it a shot.

While I'd be perfectly content to kick back and read your prompt answers and be endlessly satisfied, I can't allow this golden opportunity to pass me by. Therefore:

Xander/Owen (BtVS/Torchwood); I used to despise Owen, but s2 has, if not redeemed him, given him more depth than I thought he had. Xander becomes part of TW and is involved with Owen. What are the reactions of the others, particularly Tosh and Gwen? Do they like Xander? Do they like Owen with Xander?

Anything you'd care to do with Mal/Simon is golden. I think what I'd really like to see is some fluff. Maybe their first date. Where do they go? Are they keeping it secret from the others?

Something I've always wanted to see is a BtVS/AtS crossover in which Cordelia attended Xander and Anya's wedding. She's not possessed or anything. If she showed up, how would she be received? Or, what would she tell Anya after Xander ran away? The Xander/Cordy you wrote me for my bday is one of my fav all time fics, and I read it at least once a week. I'd love to see you do more with Cordelia. *hearts her*

I'm going to stop myself now before I get carried away. I totally understand if you can't work with these or don't have time to do them, but I'd kick myself if I didn't go for it! :D

Theres's such variety in these suggestions!

I hadn't ever considered Xander/Owen before, but I'm intrigued. I'll give it some thought and see if it generates any good phrases or images. (I usually require one or the other before I start to write. Otherwise I wind up just staring at a blank screen.)

Mal and Simon are fun, and I could probably do some drabbles that follow after the ones from Expectations.

Oooh, Cordy at the wedding. Hmmmmmm. That would be a perfect reason for her to visit, huh? I'm so glad you liked your birthday story. It was so much fun to write, and I get a kick out of the fact that I managed something het-like. :o)

Thanks for prompting!

Harry Potter: I want to prompt you in this fandom, but seriously, any characters? Or do you like specific ones?

[allyndra.livejournal.com]

I don't know that I could write Hagrid as a main character, and I'm not interested in going the incest route (so no twincest or Lucius/Draco) but otherwise, I'll try to work with anything you throw at me.

Okay!

How about a bit of Ron/Neville, someone's got a crush, and, er...Quidditch tickets?

[allyndra.livejournal.com]

Oh, fun! I love Neville, and he totally deserves fic.

Thank you for prompting!

well E/V of course. And...for a prompt...

high school graduation

Are you gonna be on tonight?

[allyndra.livejournal.com]

Oooh, high school graduation. There are possibilities there. *rubs hands*

Yeah, I'll be on tonight. See you then!

[dancinbutterfly.livejournal.com]

:D wheee. I cant wait to see you! I have stuff. :D Also, another few prompts:
~an alternative prom night
~Vince stayed in New York and ends up doing theater/Broadway instead of movies in LA
~Eric's an ex-professional boxer comes to LA to work with Vince after getting hurt one too many times/too badly (i know, random but the boy loves to fight. I bet he could have been the featherweight champion of the world or something. Ala Brando's lament in On the Waterfront "You don't understand. I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it.")

*bathes in the sea of plot bunnies*

I love the idea of Vince in theatre. There's the fact that theatre is so much more gay-friendly contrasting with the fact that his family (with all their faults and expectations)is in New York. And then there's the fact that I know more about theatre than I do about making movies.

I'm going to check out some info about boxing and see if I can integrate it into my head enough to do that prompt. It offers an older, more independent Vince and Eric, and the potetial for hurt/comfort.

You give good prompt! :o)

Oh man, can I just give you my unfinished Vince/E/gay theater/New York/crack!fic for your birthday, and you can finish it and make me stop? I read this prompt and went, wow, someone is reading my mind... and I love it!

Uhm, also, hi! And can I volunteer the following prompt, along the lines of your fic about the Super Bowl: the first time the guys get to go to a Lakers Game? Not necessarily the first time they have good seats, but just the first time they go, and see Nicholson and all of that. :D

[allyndra.livejournal.com]

Hi! I really like the Lakers game idea. I get a kick out of the moments when the boys get excited and act like regular guys (as opposed to experienced fixtures of Hollywood).

If I thought I could do justice to your theatre crack, I would totally take it. Instead, I'll encourage you to keep writing it so I can get all the fun of reading it. *g*

[dancinbutterfly.livejournal.com]

OMG please write finish it chica. I'm siked about that like whoa.

Howsa about a Buffy/SGA cross where Spike abducts Rodney to dechip him and John rides in the rescue? McShep of course. Or maybe a nice sequel to your dinner party 'verse? GLOMP
