Meme ganked from penknife.

1. comment with any character you know I've written.
2. receive three bits of trivia about their sexuality: practices, preferences, experiences, fantasies, kinks, etc.
3. Profit!

So! First ten commenters to this post can request a ficlet of their choice. It will be between 100-500 words ideally, unless I ramble off forever. Which is my right.

Limitations:
- One request only
- It must be Avatar: the Last Airbender-related.
- If I dislike the pairing, I will make you request something different or give your slot to someone else if you don't want to request something different. (Hint: I dislike Ursa/Iroh and any child/parent incest.)

I also don't feel like writing non-con right now, so none of that.

Exceptions to it being Avatar:
- dark_puck and charles_rb can request anything
- Luna, Jess, and Scott can request anything Transformers-related
- Kep can request anything Star Wars or Marvel comics-related

Requests filled out.

5. The hospital finally let Dad come home after holding him for a night longer than they originally said they would.

4. Watching "Zuko Alone" and "The Chase". ( Spoilers )

3. Trading bizarre pop music videos with Dun. Also, the video for Avril What's-Her-Face's "Girlfriend" makes me want to slap a bitch.

2. I got reminded that being depressed makes it hard for me to write, and I shouldn't beat myself up over not being able to work on a story. When my brain is just refusing, trying to force it and then feeling horrible for that not working just makes the situation worse.

1. Jess.

So I started reading this amazingly OOC Elita porn fic this morning. Sadly, it held my attention through the loving detail on how she had been tortured and broken. Well, 'held my attention' in so far as I didn't outright close it, though I did wander off from it quite a lot.

Then someone uttered a question in dialogue without using a question mark, and I went "gah!" and closed it.

I am such a grammar-geek.

Borrowed from lyssie.

And I totally write fandoms besides Transformers!

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

You know, I've got few problems with writing Optimus Prime slash with any of the canon characters. I'm a slash fan, I like that sort of thing. (Though, it being Oppy, it has to be well-written for me to do more than glance. Optimus ain't one of the guys that I'll read badfic for.)

When you insert your original female character in to shag Optimus Prime, I grit my teeth and roll my eyes. It's not my cup of tea, you know? He's already got a canon girlfriend, thank you.

But what really makes me irritated? When you not only have your OFC shagging Optimus, you bash Elita One. And express the opinion, on other people's fanworks, that it would be better without Elita? Makes me want to smack you with a clue-by-four.

I suspect I'll be writing Elita One/Optimus Prime tonight after I finish my homework. I'm spiteful like that.

And a couple of songs reflecting my mental state as of late:
- Beastie by Jethro Tull
- Defender of the Child by Heather Alexander
- Broadsword by Jethro Tull
- Golden Ring by Heather Alexander

Big music-dump, so I probably won't be sharing more than two songs for the rest of the college semester.
