Help my depression

[cornerofmadness]

give this meme a shot Give me a title to a story you think I should've written, including (if you wish) fandom and pairings, and I'll write a summary who knows you might inspire me to write something.

Why am I depressed? Not ONE student thought my kitty cd-rom was cool. No one looked at it. Hell, they barely wanted to dissect. Whine all you want guys, these kitties have to last 8 more weeks. They ain't going to get any better smelling. Yes you must cut into them. No, you can relax I will NOT touch you with my gloves if they're dirty so if I touched you you know I'm barehanded or freshly re-gloved. Yes I DO put my tools in my pants pocket. I'm used to touching this stuff and being covered in toxic goo, relax. I'm not dead yet. Yes, i DID touch it with my bare hands. Just don't you do it. If you scream, you best be gushing blood and not because embalming fluid spat at you! And yes you will all be vegetarians by the end of this because I can't help making food references. Deal with it. Pathology/Physiology/Anatomy are ripe with these analogies. It makes a quick point

Dear Student #1 - okay, so you've done this before, telling me that does NOT make me let you out of lab. I put YOU in charge of helping your fellow students.

Dear Student #2 - Asking me which labs the lab practical is one while I'm HANDING OUT the test makes me want to embalm you. Don't do it.

Dear Lab Company - don't know where the fuck you get these anemic cats but damn, either you send me catzilla or some scrawny bastard even I can't find the muscles on.

Dear Students in general - you've beaten me. I'll only put two muscles from the cats on the exam Latissimis Dorsi and Serratus Anterior. You got a 50/50 shot so expect me to ask you WHAT THEY DO!! And expect these cats back when we get to organs and no whining then or else I'll pull the organs out and tag them sans reference points. I swear it.

Wheee. I can't wait to see this. And just as X-Files actually ended in about year 6, Fullmetal Alchemist ended with episode oh, 40 or so. The stuff that came after didn't exist (much like Buffy that really ended with the Gift...)

This thing is going to be a monster. Six pages in and I'm barely done with the set-up. *facepalm* And still working out the details of the whole plot. Riza told me the first part, Mulder told me the second. And there are still SOOO many details that I do not yet know. Gah. (That's probably good, though; finding out the details is what keeps me writing. If I already know them, I lose interest in the story and quit.)

X-Files fragmented in S7. There are a few eps I like from that season and keep as canon. The rest I discard completely. (The "resolution" of the Samantha mytharc being one of them.) S8 and S9 I disregard in their entirety. STUPIDITY. *hugs Krycek and TLG close*

I really miss Krycek he was so damn sexy and I can't remember any m ore what came in which season but I know 8-9 were god awful. I also was NEVER a fan of the alien subplot.

Don't you love getting handed a monster story by your brain. That's what's killing me in these stupid ficathons of mine. It's like brain I don't have TIME for this

Oh guh, Krycek. And his death was so... so... blunt and inelegant and NOT befitting his character. It was almost an afterthought, like they said, "Oh, we don't really want to bother with resolving his character arc, so let's just kill him. Here - write in a handgun for somebody and we'll give him an execution-style death in a parking lot." WTF!? *smacks Chris Carter around*

I was on-and-off with the alien thing. My favorite part was really when Mulder was convinced it was all a government/military ruse. (Which is a fun little toy to play with since he and Roy are going to be getting into lots of trouble together.)

And, uh, yes. I hate monster stories because they almost NEVER get finished. Although I suppose I should be encouraged: the only one I ever did finish was an X-Files. So maybe I'm capable of finishing this one. ;-) (Of course, I also had an aggressive beta who would email me and say, "Hey, slacker, where's the next part?" *G*)

Yeah I had lots and lots of issues with Krychek's death.

see I almost always finish my monster stories

I'm not really sure why I don't, unless I get so overwhelmed by the sheer idea of it that I freak myself out and just ignore it. Which seems like a valid possibility considering that pattern shows up a lot in other areas of my life.

I do have some troubles like that. my failure to complete comes from distractions and my multiple twins inside my head
