remindmeofthe: (Hamlet is damn interesting)
I'm pretty sure it's been a couple years since I've done this one, so:

Pick a character* I've written and I will give and explain the top five** ideas/concepts/etc I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to accurately depicting them.

* Try to make it someone I've written either often (including characters I RP'ed) or recently in order for me to answer.
** May not actually be five.

From everyone! Because I have two tests to study for and a bunch of reading, as well as a WIP I'm starting to pick back up, so I definitely need a meme to fill out.

Pick a trope from this list and provide a fandom/pairing and I'll tell you something about the story I'd write for that combination (i.e. write a snippet from the story or write not!fic or tell you the title and summary for the story I would write)

1. genderswap
2. bodyswap
3. drunk!fic
4. huddling for warmth
5. pretending to be married
6. secretly a virgin
7. amnesia
8. cross-dressing
9. forced to share a bed
10. truth or dare
11. historical AU
12. accidental-baby-acquisition
13. apocalypse fic
14. telepathy
15. High School / College

Since I haven't posted in a billion years and my entire flist circle is doing this:

I was thinking you should tell me about stories you think I should write. I mean, if you could sit me down for a day or whatever and say, "I want you to write this story for me," what would that story be?

No promises. You might get a drabble, you might not.

Stealing this meme from [personal profile] wakeupnew:

Give me an AU prompt in the comments and I will plot out for you the fic it evokes in my mind.

You guys know my fandoms. Bring it.
remindmeofthe: (Default)
You know that posting more often thing I was going to do? Have a meme!

Give me 2-9 actors. I'll put my music on shuffle, and create a movie synopsis based on those actors and the first song that comes up.

I reserve the right to skip songs from musical soundtracks, since those already have their own topics and it would be either way too hard or cheating. I haven't decided which.

A: I have approximately a bajillion Dreamwidth codes. You want one, it's yours. For yourself, an RP journal, whatever. Just ask.

B:

The Multi-Media Multi-Fandom Mash-Up Meme!


There are some awesome prompts going wanting, most of which I don't know both of the fandoms for. Maybe you do!
remindmeofthe: (Default)
OKAY I GIVE. And I'm bored at workstudy.

Pick a character I write or RP, and I will give you the top five ideas/concepts/other I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to depicting them accurately.

Just from current games/recent fic, please - I may not remember enough for or be too embarrassed by older characters.

Out of curiosity, from [livejournal.com profile] ashen_key:

Check my fandoms, my favorite characters, the pairings I like the most, my kinks, my fictional crushes, anything. Now, in a friendly and possibly teasing way, point out the obvious and not so obvious trends or fetishes you see in my tastes. Maybe I'm nuts for all vampire stories, or have a thing for men who smoke, or I'm fond for the tsundere archetype, or I'm into rival slash. Let's point out all of those you've noticed I tend to squee about during our friendship.

(Icon presumably unreleated, but newly ganked and in need of showing off.)

OKAY OKAY. Everyone on the flist is doing this one (like, seriously, six in a row when I checked a few minutes ago), so I give. I've kind of been thinking of a new LJ name lately anyway, since I'm not exclusively a slasher anymore, so maybe I'll got an idea from someone!

THE RP USERNAME MeME
remindmeofthe: (Malcolm and Nicola - car tantrum)
A interesting meme going around:

If you could have me write a story specifically for you, what would it be like? Fandom, characters/pairing, genre, plot elements, kinks (if applicable): what's your ideal story? from me?

I may or may not write you a snippet. I promise nothing.

I would also like to note that my job is okay, but my manager sucks, all we do on his days off is stand around talking about how much we hate him, and half the reason I haven't quit is because I'm afraid I'll miss the uprising where we all stand in a circle around him and explain to him the many ways in which he is invited to go fuck himself. In re: icon - I'd rather work for Malcolm Tucker. (My manager is more like a fifty-percent-less-skeevy Steve Fleming.)

O HAY Yuletide reveal. Yeah, that kind of got lost for me in the last few days. I wrote "All of Denmark", a modernized Hamlet AU set at the beginning of WWII and drawing a little on actual events in Denmark at the time. It was fun to write and I thank my recipient for explicitly giving me permission to go for AUs or modernizations, so that I felt comfortable getting a little out there and settling on a premise that was a bit of a reach.

In the spirit of the thing, have that fic meme that's been going around!

Cut because I talk a lot. )

Roleplay meme!

NOTE: Please only respond to B if you are currently in a game I am in ([livejournal.com profile] milliways_bar or [livejournal.com profile] mixed_muses. I cannot do this for regular fandom because my brain doesn't work that way and I can't remember my past characters well enough to do it. If you disregard this and it makes me cranky enough, I might just delete your comment. I'm getting a little tired of people ignoring the roleplay aspect of these memes when I do them.

A, of course, can qualify as a fanfic question too, so that one's open to everyone.


A. Has my portrayal of a character(s) changed the way you think of him/her?

B. Pick one of my characters and I'll answer the following questions about him or her.
I reserve the right to omit questions that I think are stupid, that I can't quantify for the character in question, or that look at me funny.

1. What would your character kill for? What would they die for?
2. What would they refuse to do under any circumstances? Why?
3. What do they dream about?
4. What’s their biggest fear?
5. What single object would they be most hard pressed to part with? Why?
6. What is their fondest memory?
7. What is their worst memory?
8. What or who was were their most significant influence? Expound.
9. What do they believe makes a successful life?
10. What makes them laugh?
11. What are their religious views?
12. What is their greatest strength?
13. Do they have a fatal flaw? If so, what is it?
14. Who is the most important person in their life?
15. If they died, who would miss them most? How would they die?

Meme! Swiped from [livejournal.com profile] misslucyjane. And this one is actually *gasp* NOT an RP meme.

Give me the title of a story I've never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.
remindmeofthe: (Hamlet is damn interesting)
Ask a character a question, any question, and they HAVE to answer completely honestly. Have to. It's the meme rule. Even if they'd normally lie, they suddenly have been hit with a truth serum of some kind and must tell the truth. Bwaha.

Note that this is a roleplay meme, and I'd prefer it for my current games only. However, if there's something you're just dying to know about, say, a fic I wrote, you may ask a question of a character from it. But please state that fic version specifically, because if you just ask a character a question in general, I won't know how to answer it.

A rare meme appearance! I grabbed this one from [livejournal.com profile] austen.

Inspired by Doctor Who's "Turn Left:" Pick one of my stories (here) and tell me a point in the tale that you'd change. Something tiny (e.g. "and then Fay chose silver glitter instead of gold") or big (e.g. "and then Rose was arrested instead of Jack") and I'll tell you how that one difference would have altered the course of the entire story.

I'm about to head off to bed, and I'm working all day tomorrow, and then there will be Torchwood (I still cannot believe that I intend to WATCH it), but I will get to this.

RP meme! Swiped from [livejournal.com profile] varadia:

Give me a character and I will give you at least three facts about them according to my own personal canon. This can range from their birthday, favorite color or even their earliest memory up to what they had last night for dinner.
remindmeofthe: (Default)
Yeah, that meme that's going around. I got mine from [livejournal.com profile] sotto_voice.

Courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] beckla30, plus everyone else on my flist: Comment on this post. I'll choose seven userpics from your profile and you'll explain what they mean and why you're using them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.



If I didn't already know and accept my geekdom, this selection would be quite a wake-up call. )



And as usual, I talked too much. I think you expect that by now.

So like a week ago, I offered to take pictures of stuff. [livejournal.com profile] offspeed asked for a picture of me in my Joey Harrington Lions jersey. I took my time because, well, I had to get to the laundromat first.

Cut for a crap photo taken in crap light with a crap camera phone. Seriously. I swear I can take better pictures than this. )

This is a much better picture of me. )

Heh. Not so much for the smiling for the camera, apparently. I didn't do it on purpose, I swear.
