Inspiration Meme

[jedibuttercup]

I've seen that writer's meme going around several people's journals, you know the one:

Name three fics you think I will never, ever, ever write. In return (and if inspired), I will attempt to write a snippet of one of them.

There's just one problem here-- for me, there pretty much is no never, as long as I have at least a nodding acquaintance with the fandom(s); you guys should know that by now after the drabble memes. I do have firm no-lines regarding incest and NC-17 sex, but aside from that, I'm even willing to write pairings I hate with a nuclear intensity if someone asks nicely-- just ask maevebran.

So go ahead. Try to surprise me with your suggestions (outside of the boundaries I just mentioned). If you can come up with anything that genuinely does break my brain, I'll see what I can do. *grin*

*Sneaks in and takes deep breath*

Evil, Wickedverse, Vamp Willow (BtVS) stumbles across her version of Daniel Jackson (SG1)and turns him. Together, they find a way of getting to our universe and eventually end up at Atlantis(SGA), wreaking havoc and annoying a lot of Scoobies along the way.

Rodney becomes very, very annoyed (insert reason here) 'Our'Daniel gets very embarrasssed by the goings on of 'Evil' Daniel, and the Scoobies arrive, on Evil Willow's tail

....oh, and the Doctor (DW) does a flyby to check out the interdimensional disturbance, and Dawn developes a crush on him, much to his annoyance.

Can be resolved anyway you like, except Teyla has to come up with the plan!

Is that wacked enough?

*grins*

*phew* Terribly whacked.

I had to leave the Dr. Who part out, due to the "familiarity with the fandom" clause, but I think I wedged all the rest of it in:

You throw down a gauntlet like that you know I'm going to respond.

1. Buffy/Angel happily ever after

2. Willow centric Drive fic

3. Mal/Inara romance, hard R rating

[jedibuttercup]

Dear, I just mentioned that I would write pairings and/or characters I hated if you asked nicely. The point of this meme is to break my brain instead...

[maevebran.livejournal.com]

Give me a day or so and I shall come up with a brain brakey challenge worthy of your skill with words.

[maevebran.livejournal.com]

Ninja!Daniel and the Grametron Clerics however you want to combine them but Daniel must still be a part of SG1 and going through the Gate with his Ninjaness a secret from the team until Jack finds out in the fic.=)

Fic Throw Down... Yee Haw!

[stargatebabe.livejournal.com]

I'm not into the NC-17 or slash or major whump. Using those limitations, how about:

1. Jack O'Neill becomes President of the United States. Come up with a devastating scenario. Let him go darkside. Then find the logical progression to a conclusion which involves no magical beings and NO S/J ship but does involve Jack having a romance with Mary Tyler Moore's character Mary Richards.

2. Write McKay getting fired and having to find a job. He's so washed up he's scraping the bottom of the barrel looking for a job. What could he put on a resume that wouldn't be classified? Write us a resume and cover letter that cannot violate security protocols yet entice a job interview for Bosley's position with Charlie of Charlie's Angels.

3. Write Jack O'Neill hen pecked in a new marriage to Hot Lips Houlihan from MASH.

[jedibuttercup]

While all of these sound interesting? They all run into the "familiarity with the fandom" clause; I don't know Mary Tyler Moore, nor Charlie's Angels, nor MASH.

Try again with fandoms I know? *embarrassed expression*

[stargatebabe.livejournal.com]

I am so depressed. I feel so old and squaresville. For sure, totally, gag me with a spoon! OMG!

Oh does that date me?

Sigh.

Okay, three more...

1. Jack O'Neill goes fishing with Sheriff Andy Taylor of Mayberry. Opie comes along making Jack remember taking Charlie fishing years ago. Aunt Bea sends a picnic basket with fried chicken. But Otis crashes the scene and falls in the pond drunk having to be rescued. He thinks Jack pushed him in and it's the beginnings of a hillbilly feud. Everyone but Andy winds up in Jail for the night with Barney Fife telling his stories. Jack wishes Thor wou1d rescue him. Crossover SG1 with the Andy Griffith Show.

2. Gomer Pyle, USMC, shows up for duty at the SGC. Sergeant Carter arrives to lead an SGC team to rescue Pyle from Ba'al. But Goober learns the truth from Agent Mulder when he gets the MIA notice on Gomer. Floyd gives him a bad haircut to boot. Crossover SG1 with Gomer Pyle, USMC

3. Granny tries to marry Ellie Mae Clampett to Jack O'Neill when he comes fishing near their old cabin. Jed thinks Jethro ought to date Samantha Carter. But Miss Jane is jealous. When Jed decides to move to Colorado Springs, Milbourn Drysdale pitches a fit and tries to find Jack another woman. Crossover SG1 and the Beverly Hillbillies.

[jedibuttercup]

None of those work either, sorry! Now I feel terribly uncultured!

I don't think it's so much a matter of you dating yourself, as that my parents let us watch mostly cartoons and Star Trek reruns growing up; I missed most of the shows that aired in the 80s, whether it was first run or in syndication.

Here's a rundown of the fandoms I actually have written at least 100 words in before, in alphabetic order, though my grounding in some of them is a bit shaky these days:

Angel, Batman Begins, Bones, Boondock Saints, Buffy, Bulletproof Monk, Constantine, CSI (Vegas), The Day After Tomorrow, Dead Zone, DOOM, Dracula 2000, Drive, due South, Dukes of Hazzard (2005), Equilibrium, The Fifth Element, Firefly, Godzilla (1998), Harry Potter, Highlander (movies), Ice Princess, Independence Day (ID4), The Island, Jumanji, Jurassic Park, Jurassic Park III, The Lake House, Lake Placid, Legally Blonde, Lord of the Rings, Mansfield Park, Men in Black, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, Pirates of the Caribbean (CoBP & DMC), Pitch Black, Pride and Prejudice, The Rock, The Rundown, Silmarillion, Slither, Spiderman 2, Star Trek, Star Wars, Stargate: Atlantis, Stargate: SG-1, Terminator III, Unbreakable, Underworld, V for Vendetta, Van Helsing, Where the Heart Is, X-Files, X-Men

In addition, I know several other current sci-fi and action movies that I just haven't been inspired to write for yet. Is that enough to choose from? =)

I'm soooooooo OLD!

I am soooooo depressed.... LMAO! ....<sob> LOL. <Sobbing> I'll just hobble over to my rocker with my walker and knit until I get arthritis or finish hardening my arteries.

I guess you don't get TV Land or the Nick-at-Nite channel or AMLTV on cable? All those good old shows re-running for all eternity?

It's ok. I'll try to come up with something in those fandoms.

;)

[kerravonsen]

You're right, there is very very little you wouldn't write. I'll have to think about this very hard...

[kerravonsen]

Okay, so if I can't stump you on the content, I'll just have to try style.

1. CSI: The Musical
2. Eowyn meets Leelu, 1st-person from Leelu's point of view.
3. Hiro writes Haiku (in English, so it might have to be Future-Hiro)

[jedibuttercup]

jedibuttercup's brain: *breaks*

Seriously, though. Trying to picture these? I unfortunately lost track of Heroes, so #3 is out, and as for the other two...

*stares wide-eyed off into space*

[kerravonsen]

Bwa-ha-ha! I did it! I broke her brain!

[jedibuttercup]

*whimpers* I recovered, though!

Take THAT!

I actually can't come up with something you won't write, so I'll just go for weird and story ideas you haven't written before.

1) Monty Python/SG-1 cross-over, featuring recurring characters from the Flying Circus series.

2) An SG-1 "fountain of youth" story. Can alter either physical age or behavior. More than one team member affected. Original team.

3) Lord Peter Whimsy/ST:TNG crossover. Include mint julep and a rubber duck.

[lt-kitty.livejournal.com]

That was me. I don't know why I was logged out. :/

[jedibuttercup]

I've been wondering who that was!

... I kind of have my eye on the Fountain of Youth one; I've seen lots of deaged-Danny-adopted-by-Jack fics, but rarely anything else along those lines, so there's plenty of room to be creative with it. *rubbing hands together*

[lt-kitty.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'm looking forward to it. *g*

[ignavus.livejournal.com]

Here's one that strikes me as amusing: Mr. Bean defeats a wraith attack.

[az-anneliese.livejournal.com]

I didn't see this before and since you're working on a massive reward fic for me, feel no pressure. This is something I've thought of before and just don't have the nerve to write.

BtVS/Harry Potter/SG-1: SG-1, along with representatives from a new government agency which is slowly taking over the Stargate project (the Watcher's Council post S7) go through the stargate on a trial run to get the feel of things and end up in the department of mysteries. They manage to find their way out of that department only to walk in on the trial of Sirius Black for the murder of James, Lilly, etc.

Well, at least I got to share the idea, if nothing else.
