Just in case it hasn't been thoroughly proven by now, I have decided to give further evidence of my own insanity. I was listening to the music I have saved on my computer, and couldn't help thinking of pairings that would fit with the songs, and then I thought, hey! Why not write a series of short little chapters with various pairings based on any given song I have on my computer? While I was on that train of thought, I also concluded, due to unfortunately permanent insanity (I think that my homicidal muse Kate had something to do with it because I criticized her for leaving her alter-egos behind when she went to Hawaii earlier…), that I should let my readers/reviewers pick the pairing of their choice, and throw in 2 words that I have to use.
As this is somewhat similar to the challenge drabbles I am writing with some of my friends (which you should only read if you can tolerate both yaoi and yuri), I have decided to continue to have it rated on a scale of 1-10. Also, it's fun and lets people type in only 1 number and have it count as a review. People honestly need to review more. Just one number! That's all I ask for!
And as I am a woman of science, I will once again restate the (not so) equivalent exchange that goes into this:
You request a pairing and 2 words. I will write a fic based on a song I choose and use your pairing and your 2 words. In return, you will leave a review either consisting of words of praise, words that basically tell me to go to hell because I suck (and yes, I will except these. Flames have the perverse habit of amusing the shit out of me. It's great! I could live off flames!), or simply leaving a single, possibly double digit number between and including 1 and 10. The only rule is that it has to be related to one of the following animes or books:
· FMA
· Chrono Crusade
· Spiral
· Twelve Kingdoms
· Loveless
· Otogi Zoshi
· Last Exile
· DNAngel
· Anything done by studio Ghibli (Nausicaä, Howl's Moving Castle, Grave of the Fireflies, Castle in the Sky, etc)
· Harry Potter
· Any of the Bartimaeus trilogy
· His Dark Materials trilogy
· Eragon/Eldest
· Howl's Moving Castle (yes, it's also a book, and you should all read it!)
· Romeo and Juliet (but if I do, know only that it WILL be parody, because I hate this book)
· Iliad (see previous comment)
· The Oracle
There are a few other books I can't think of at the moment. If you think of something you'd really like, let me know and if I've read it, I'll write it. If not, I will pass it on to my Beta, Jane Austen Girl, who has read more books in her 17 years of life than most people have in 30, and she will have a go at it. If this ends up being the case, I will make sure to give her the proper credit she so wonderfully deserves.
If any of you think this is a pathetic idea, note the comment about the flames and tell me all about it. If enough people say it's a bad idea, or somehow illegal by FanFiction standards, let me know and I won't do it. No hard feelings. Just a random whim of my loud, rowdy, and sometimes quite drunk (Kate built a bar there quite some time ago, and the drunks occasionally throw plot bunnies into my brain matter), alter-ego filled mind.
Requests will be now taken, as well as brochures on any good mental institutions you know of. Arigato!
