On (fannish) Things
Sep. 14th, 2005 09:53 amObligatory Advent Children reaction:
SQUEE OMG PRETTY SQUEEEE OMG THE SHEER KICKASSEDNESS OF IT ALL SQUEE SQUEEEEEEE OH HOW I LOVE RENO (AND COMPANY) SQUEEEEE SQUEEE!
You're unlikely to get more outa me. Except did the toss-the-Cloud sequence remind anyone else of OP, Arabasta arc, with the clocktower?
And, fic. Finally finished the Static Shock Summertime; started posting a new YGO, Safeguard, because no one is writing me the squishy fluffy gen that I desperately want to read in that fandom. So I'm writing it for myself. And then there was a challenge on a comm and hallucinations were too good to pass up, so now I'm writing Legally Insane, too, only I doubt that one will be terribly popular there, as it's not angst except in the most contrived and shallow way, nor is it incest (I'm terrible about following rules) - it's an incest comm, most of the fic are dark and creepy, disturbing angst, often extremely well-done. But I have no urge to write creepy & disturbing for YGO, because that's what most of the good writers are doing for it already. The series has a definite potential for dark, and since that side's only briefly touched on in canon (the chars are all too busy playing cards to dig into how messed up they might be), it's not surprising that fen enjoy exploring it. But I doubt I could do it any better than others already are, and since my darkfic itches are getting scratched, I'm not particularly inspired to try. And dammit, sometimes I just want an unabashed happy ending that leave me with a silly grin.
...Okay, most of the time that's what I want, even if I enjoy and appreciate other sorts of fic. I'm a hurt/comfort addict. There probably should be a 12 step program for that. As it is, I'm writing all - fluffy angst? Or angsty fluff? Pseudo-angst, the sort that puts the chars through much stress and worry and physical/emotional torture but it all gets entirely and cheerfully resolved by the story's end. With hugs. Because there can never be too many hugs.
