lists are great

[schmerica]

I was telling thete1 last night that I thought it was a damn shame that Tru Calling really left *no* excuse to write porn between Eliza Dushku's and Callum Keith Rennie's characters (because, yes, I am that shallow. So much sexy!). Te thinks it's just another sign of how much the show sucks.

Today I made lists.

Pairings

Clark/Lex. Fraser/RayK. Simon/River. Chris/Justin. Wes/Gunn. Dan/Casey. Charles/Erik. Magneto/Pyro. Dan/Casey. Bright/Ephram.

Story elements

Banter. Bickering. Arguments/confrontations between peopple who know each other very well. Happy endings. Smut. Making out. Emotional vulnerability, fragility, intimacy/relationship issues (the "woobie" factor).

Things I mean to write (or possibly have written for me)

Story over 10,000 words. Epistolary story. Extended first person. A serious involved AU. Genderfuck cliche fic. s1-episode-like dialogue-heavy SN story. River/Mal dance fic. Long, meaty first-time Clark/Lex grounded in s3. Lots of Fraser/RayK. Secret Santa popslash story. That damn Beau/Innes. Pre-pilot episode Clark or Lex stories. Lex/Victoria or Lex/Desiree stories. More Simon/River.

Epistolary story.

Ooooh, yes. So hard to do well, but so fabulous when done well!

And I really will try to manage some sort of Beau/Innes for you this Christmas.

I would muchly enjoy some more of your Clark/Lex. Just so you know.

heh. i was just gonna mock her for it. i didn't think of it that way.

[runpunkrun]

Me too. I was creating some elaborate (Dan/Casey) x (Dan/Casey) equation but it got me thinking about string theory again, so I had to stop. Stupid brain.

I third that.

s1-episode-like dialogue-heavy SN story.

Oh, yes!! Yesyesyesyes!

I like your explanation better than the one where I am a dork and re-edit the order of the list and forget to delete. It makes me look smarter.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hmmph. At least I managed to keep the right TENSE.

I would muchly enjoy *writing* more Clark/Lex! My brain has had some kind of evil strike going on with regards to them since April or so. I haven't been able to write anything for them but that one post-Phoenix snippet. It's so tragic!

I love epistolary stories. I have a giant soft spot for them.

And Beau/Innes! Woo! Ha. I need to actually reread that book and remember why I wanted it and more about them.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hee. Sports Night! Love!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Aw. I have to like your brain, because it produces pretty things. But it is a shame I did not get to see the grand mocking theory.

Lex/Victoria or Lex/Desiree stories

Dude, if you wrote those I'd love you forever. Just saying.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I *heart* Lex's fucked-up het relationships. *sigh*

[runpunkrun]

That is tragic! Let's hope Clark and Lex come back to you. You treat them so well.
