Fan Fic and Original Fic

[cornerofmadness]

origfic_bingo is having it's May sign up post. Nothing like having some good prompts and a challenge to meet to get your original fiction flowing.

fma_ladyfest is opening up for sign ups. YAY. I hope to see a lot of you there.


And fantas_magoria is up to the episodes Fool for Love & Darla two of my favorite episodes. So I thought I'd repost here what I posted there.

I admit it, they were always my favorite to write. I have nothing new for this but I DO have a ton of stories spawned out of Fool for Love & Darla. These all go to FFN. I have more that would fit that are NC-17 but I need to find and upload those to AO3 since my website is no more. I may or may not have time for that but this should be plenty enough.

In the interest of time and space, I'm just giving you the links (i.e the titles), the pairings and rough time period. I tried to put them in some sort of progression but they are not interrelated other than being Fanged Four. Enjoy.

1 Stained Indigo Angelus/Darla, William/Dru, set in the 1880’s this is a role reversal AU and includes dialogue from Fool for Love and Darla

SO EXCITED FOR LADYFEST! Another thing to add to the list, right? lol

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

the list never ever shortens. oh what do I want to ask for????

[seatbeltdrivein.livejournal.com]

Nope, the list is going to be long FOREVER. You know, I kind of wish they'd release the sign up form early, so we could play around with ideas for prompts and all, but I guess I get why they don't.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah guess they have to keep it semi-orderly. Waah, I still have no idea what or who I want

[seatbeltdrivein.livejournal.com]

Right? I keep trying to think, you know, of something totally awesome to request. So far, I've failed miserably... We're not allowed to request AUs, right?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i'm not sure. they have an extensiv FAQ i think. I never think about AU's so I wouldn't be paying attention (I actually dont' really like them...)

[seatbeltdrivein.livejournal.com]

I do get the impression from the FAQ that it has to be within the manga/Brotherhood universe, so I'm guessing that beyond timeline divergences, there's no allowance for AUs. I love AUs, but I am very picky about them. It's usually not worth bothering to pick through the massive amounts of high school AUs for something worthwhile...

I burnt out on AU's in the buffy verse. vampires is what made it cool. I never got the AU's (by AU I mean radically changing the settings, time periods etc. I dont' see the term AR being used in anime fandoms though)
