Hmm.

Well, crap. I was thinking of different ways to set up this request / prompty fic I was going to do, but today at work (it got boring,) I thought of a one-shot I want to write first.

I kinda incepted myself with the idea of Arthur and Eames having to spend a night in a haunted house. Like, sexytimes would get interrupted by ghosts and such. IDEK.

After I finish that one (though I haven't actually begun it yet,) then I'd like to do a kind of experiment where I have the premise of a fic*, but I'd ask you all, in a post after every chapter, to challenge me with some weird, cooked out, freaky or funny or random detail you'd like to see added into it. That'd be a real challenge, right? I wonder if I could do it.

What do you think? Could that maybe happen? After the stupid haunted house one I have in my head?





*Something to do with a long train ride, and something to do with dreamshare and scary voodoo stuff. Like I don't know, they have to extract from someone who tries to make zombies or something. IDEK. That sounds crazy even for me.

I like this plan. I very much like this plan. It totally works too, since you seem to write without anything too concrete in mind. And I mean this as a compliment, even though it's sort of going all wonky. But I love how you write, edge of my seat the entire time. And I love the idea of a long train ride. I love shit like that. :)

God, focusing on fic is like, the hardest thing to do right now. Amnesia is SO on the back burner ever since someone said on the Anon Love Meme that they liked my roadtrip verse, so now i'm about 6,0000 words into a FOURTH installment for THAT one. Like, oy vey. FOCUS, PADAWAN, FOCUS.

WOW-haunted house fic! I like that :)

I like the idea of "Choose your own adventure" type fic too!

What a creative idea :)

You are a sneaky naughty minx aren't you? What gave you the haunted house idea, Tabs? You MINX you. (I say that with love.....)

Ooo, it's good to hear about your plans. I'm so curious how this "haunted" fic will look like, especially because of the fact I'm not really into such things like ghosts. Nevertheless I'm going to read it, leave a constrictive critic and (hopefully) enjoy it, because it'a a crazy idea and somehow you make the craziest ones work so good.
As for the second idea- YES. Definitely yes. I'm even more curious about that!

Well, sweetheart, after the crabs in Glitch, I believe you can do anything ;)

was that too spoilery, should I not have said that? I've changed it just in case.

You know that I will read that haunted house fic and LOVE it :D

That challenge sounds really fun!

Haunted houses are not stupid, they are very interesting. I love haunted house stories - for this I blame Buffy and Angel (since I was seven when I started watching Buffy and I think it incepted me). :D

I think the weird idea thing is a good one; it could make for very interesting fic if all the weird ideas in our heads get mixed together.

OOOOOOOH that is a brilliant idea :D :D :D

*g* haunted house fic....ooh O: i wish we could give you a challenge right now cuz haunted house fic gave me an idea/image

oh well, *can't wait to read* XD

[wirrrn.livejournal.com]

Neat idea. Count me in :)

The haunted house sounds potentially hilarious! And Arthur tries to rationalize and say that ghosts don't exist but twitching and using ArthurThatWas language and Eames being all confused by ArthurThatWas language and being stereotypical British and shouting "Witches!" and the Winchesters come and make the ghosts go away. (*coughnosupernaturalreferencehere,what?cough*)

The train-hoodoo-necromancy(?) ficsounds interesting. Would we just give shout outs after every chapter? =D

You already integrate so well people's comments into your fiction. I mean, maybe not specific ideas, but general observations.

I think it would be a great challenge and probably a successful one if you tried. But you would have to be choosy. Not every idea is great and it could become a giant clusterfuck if you put in everyone's two cents.
