Prompt me

Haven't done this in a while but I'm looking for inspiration. Throw out a prompt or a weird pairing in one of my more recent fandoms (you can check Ao3) and I'll write you a drabble.

Prompt me

I'm in the mood for some writing so I'm collecting prompt requests for the following fandoms:
OZ
L.A. Confidential
Fast & Furious (all except Tokyo Drift)
Firefly
Game of Thrones
Prodigal Son
Resident Alien
(If there's a fandom you know I write that isn't listed here, feel free to put it out there and I'll let you know if it's do-able.)

Thanks!

Meme time!

sidleypkhermit tagged me for this writing meme so I thought I'd play along.

1) How many works do you have on AO3? 476 and counting, but really 627+ because I have an entire collection of drabbles in one work

2) What is your total ao3 word count? At the moment, 307,896

3) How many fandoms have you written for, and what are they? 37 – primarily, OZ, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Game of Thrones, Firefly, and The Departed

4) What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1. Wandless Magic (Harry Potter)
2. Sheldon Cooper's Road to Recovery (The Big Bang Theory)
3. Sleeping Patterns (Justified)
4. A Mere Request (Game of Thrones)
5. Reason Number Seventeen Why Geno Shouldn't Answer His Phone at Midnight (Men's Hockey RPF)

5) Do you respond to comments? Most of the time. Sometimes things slip past or I mean to write something and don't come back, but I'm trying to get better

6) What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending? There's a drabble in the HardTime100 collection entitled Thoughts on an Interrupted Ride Home. If you know OZ, you know that Kathy Rockwell's innocent inner monologue isn't going to end well (or really end at all). For a longer work, Somewhere in the Andes, a Butterfly Flaps Its Wings (OZ) looks at the what ifs in the lives of the O'Reily brothers

7) What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending? Most of them. I'm a sucker for a happy ending. A Series of Awkward Moments (OZ) is probably a good example because it takes so long to get to the payoff.

8) Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve ever written? Very rarely. My Firefly-OZ crossovers are definitely on the unusual scale

9) Have you ever received hate on a fic? Not really. Folks are pretty kind. I did receive a comment from a teacher on a script I wrote for one of my college classes which said at the end “I don't know why you wrote this.” Pretty harsh, but I wound up changing the ending and it was better for it. I still got a high grade on the assignment

10) Do you write smut? What kind? Yes. BDSM. I don't like to worry about whose body is where and doing what at each point in time, BDSM seems to have an emotional/spiritual component in addition to the physical that I enjoy exploring.

11) Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not to my knowledge

12) Have you ever had a fic translated? Yes. A couple of my L.A. Confidential fics were translated into Chinese

13) Have you ever co-written a fic before? Not really. I tried to have a “writing partner” when I lived in LA, but it didn't work out

14) What’s your favorite ship? Tim McManus/Sean Murphy, OZ

15) What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will? Great Risks- my Dino Ortolani/Ryan O'Reily epic series that's close to hitting the point where the TV series begins. It's been languishing for years.

16) What are your writing strengths? Dialogue, being economical. It comes from years of screenwriting. Humor.

17) What are your writing weaknesses? Long lyrical descriptive passages and action scenes

18) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in fic? I try to avoid it unless I'm absolutely certain the translation is correct

19) What was the first fandom you wrote for? OZ

20) What’s your favorite fic you’ve ever written? I can't choose just one, so here are three that I really count as some of my best, all from movies - One Tear (The Departed) – it's more poetry than a fic, has alternating voices, and is in second person, Alternate Ending (The Wizard of Oz) – I wrote it for the Halfamoon Fest and this Dorothy turned into a justice warrior, and Another Time, Another Life (L.A. Confidential) in which I rewrote the ending of the film highlighting all of the slashy subtext.

If you want to play, feel free to copy/paste and jump in with your own answers.
