Wanna Get Ficced?

(All lasergirl's fault. I'm certain she does not care.

1. Dan and Rorschach, possible buddy-fic, possible slash fic -- very, very early in their partnership, Rorschach gets injured bad enough that Dan has to take care of him, leading to Rorschach moving in with him, leading to Rorschach staying for a long period because Dan comes up with reasons for him to hang around, knowing that Rorschach will refuse to stay if there's not a way he can be useful around the house. This will lead to numerous alternate versions of events including the Roche kidnapping, because rather than Rorschach and Dan only being vigilante partners, they share space, so they can continue to touch base with one another. This will, of course, also completely alter how the entire main plot of Watchmen works out. (Note: I am insane.)

2. X-number of months or years after events in Antarctica, Dan wakes up to Rorschach in his house. Except, of course, Rorschach should be dead. A mystery is afoot (which I've already solved, but I'm not telling you), and Dan and Rorschach end up re-connecting as they spend time together. Laurie will feature in some fashion, as I am basing this post-canon, and I like her and Dan together. (Note: I am slightly less insane.)

3. Gen Kill AU where Brad is Rorschach and Nate is Nite Owl. I'd flip this and make Brad Nite Owl given the gadgets, but Nate is more idealistic, and that's an important part of the Nite Owl character. I don't have the rest of the cast outlined, yet. I may not need it to be properly outlined, but I feel like I should know who else would stand in for the characters. (Note: I am completely out of my fucking mind.)

I had another idea, and I can't think of it now. To say I've been reading a lot of Watchmen fic would be a gross understatement. There's a WIP I found at AO3 that has Rorschach as a robot, and it's good and slightly painful and enjoyable. It looks like it hasn't been updated since June, but I can hope, right?

All right, now that I've shown you all this part of my brain, I have to go do homework.

I badly want to write Knitting!Zelenka fic, where he's bartering for sweaters, and he unwinds them and resets the yarn and makes sweaters for Beckett, who is very Scottish but somehow always kind of chilly.

And Zelenka would have learned it from his mother and grandmother, because when a sweater started to wear out or get too small, they'd just unravel and start over.

Awesome, or AWESOME?

In no particular order:

1. An AU of the Green Lanterns where Guy manages a bar owned by Hal and hires on Kyle as a new bartender so Kyle can pay for art school. Hal will, of course, be kind of a pain-in-the-ass owner and Kilowog will play bouncer. Other Lanterns and DC hero-types will drop in as needed.

2. An AU for Oz where Beecher and Keller get something closer to a happy ending. Because I am queen of the saps for them, doomed though they were. (Let it be known: I don't actually have beef with how it ended for them; given the destruction they caused one another, I'm surprised it wasn't WORSE.)

3. Something with "Outsiders," as I finally joined the ranks of junior high kids everywhere and read it. Something about Ponyboy growing up, maybe, and getting the chance to go to college and be a Soc.

4. A Ginny/Marcus Flint piece from HP. Yes, really. Because in the "Ben Folds" universe, they accidentally blew up a forest together, and I need less prompting than that for most ships.

None of these are getting written any time soon, mind you. I'm still behind on holiday ficlets, and Electric Slide is still very much in the works.

I want to write mid-war Percy/Oliver where Percy is running a safehouse [as close to admin work as he can get in the current circumstances], and Oliver is one of the top spies/runners for the Order, given his extensive background in strategy and evasive maneuvers in Quidditch.

Percy's safehouse is, of course, the best safehouse in all of the Order, because it's Percy, so all the high-ranking Order members end up there at some point or another.

I'm trying to decide which parts of book 7 to completely ignore for this, because the idea of Percy dealing with war-weary Fred and George makes my heart all soft and gooey, but I could also get mileage out of poor, lonely George and isolated Percy bonding.

But, oh, I do hate writing George without Fred. I don't begrudge Rowling for killing Fred, given that people you love die in war all the time, but on the other hand, did it have to be Fred?

So, main point: Percy, safehouse, and Oliver. Yes?

Since last night at roughly 11:00 PM, I've written 3200+ words of a Dresden Files/Harry Potter crossover wherein Harry goes to Dresden needing to find Snape. Who has been hiding out in the States since the war ended and...well, that's all I've got. But I've got 3200 words of it.

I blame this partly on my recent "Dresden Files" binge, partly on miriam_heddy's fantastic yuletide story [DF/Buffy], Spill, and the general insistence my brain has to making me write mildly random crossovers that try to get really long.

And yet the "Tin Man" fic still sits and whimpers for my attention.

I've attempted to write, or add to, at least seven or eight pieces of fic in the last two days. Nothing is cooperating. NOTHING. Therefore, I shall list all the stories I have ideas for and hope someone can help me knock something loose.

1. Numb3rs-Charlie/Larry-Charlie and Larry spend a summer teaching kids at a math and science camp. There's much nerding out, disciplining of screaming kids, and 12-year-old girls with crushes on Charlie. [The other teachers will have crushes on Larry, natch.]

2. Numb3rs-Charlie/Larry-I wanna do a cliche' fic, and what better cliche is there than the supportive chick [Amita] having to save Charlie or Larry from an insufferable woman who can't take the hint that the boys aren't interested? I'm starting to really like Amita because while she *is* trying to date Charlie, she's still *smart*.

3. Numb3rs-Charlie and Larry-First-time meeting. Awkward!Charlie and Patient!Larry. Two university misfits bond at one of those unending campus dinners.

4. News RPS-Keith Olbermann/Anderson Cooper-I don't have a plot, just Anderson Cooper in eyeliner, lipstick, and a duct tape skirt. It'd make a great Halloween fic.

5. News RPS-Jon Stewart/Anderson Cooper-A sequel to "Almost-Funny Morning" where Anderson gets back to New York and he and Jon get a couple of days before Anderson goes storm whoring again.

6. Law & Order: SVU/CI-Eliot/Bobby-Bobby meets Eliot's kids. Twitching, sizing up, and a slightly Marueen ensue.

7. Law & Order: SVU/CI-Eliot/Bobby-a sequel to "Fraternity", wherein Eliot and Bobby, a few weeks after their fateful jazz club bathroom fuck, come face-to-face when their cases overlap. Sex.

8. Threshold-Nigel/Lucas-No plot yet. I just wanna write more geek love. Geek love is the best.

9. Nero Wolfe-Archie/Saul-Post-"Disguise for Murder" because Saul is so tetchy throughout the whole thing and Archie gets hurt, so h/c baby!

10. Horatio Hornblower-Horatio/William-Horatio has his head shaved for some reason [lice?] and poor William is left with nothing to grab.

11. Horatio Hornblower-Horatio/William-Something with a rainstorm.

12. I wanna write bondage fic. I just don't know who's into that just yet.

Larry/Charlie-"Numb3rs"-Charlie talks to Larry about Larry's offer to move into his place. Was it an intentional invite to move in, or was Larry being his usual clueless self and just being nice?

House/Wilson-"House"-Mid-ep for "Poison", House and Wilson talk about Wilson's poetry reading.

House/Wilson-"House"-Post-ep for "Sports Medicine", House and Wilson go for the throat as they discuss the mysterious Stacey and why Wilson would go to dinner with her as opposed to the monster truck rally with House. Snideness insues.
