Dreams and Swords

Because my hormones are flailing at me and demanding procreation. Stupid hormones.

Rules:
- Two slots unless you're one of the people I normally give extra slots to. In that case, you get five.
- Male/female pairings only. Or female/female with suggested sperm donors. I've already done an mpreg meme, kthx.
- Kids will range in age, names, genders, 'bending abilities, etc. as the whim takes me. If I already have some kidlets for a particular pairing, I'm likely to write them instead of making up new kids.

MEME IS CLOSED.

I started this fic last year for springkink and have only just now finished it. Go me.

I picked up several Harlequin category romance novels this last week. They are quick reads and usually enjoyable. They also have the most delightfully cracktastic titles ever. "Ruthless Tycoon, Inexperienced Mistress". "Pirate Tycoon, Secret Baby". "One Night with the Rebel Billionaire". "Sheikh Boss, Hot Desert Nights".

One of the things I found myself saying while reading through a few of this was, "I've read this fanfic."

Now I want to read those fanfics.

Your challenge is to write a quick ficbit involving a romance novel scenario. The ones below are suggestions, but feel free to do whatever.

Scenario A: Sexy billionaire brings sexy friend of someone else he knows home while it is snowing, then they get snowed in together.

Scenario B: It is the Season, and it is time for the beautiful and sexy young woman to debut and find herself a handsome, charming, and wealthy man. Bonuses for rakes and fake-rakes.

Scenario C: Sexy cowboy helps sexy ranch-owner save her land from claim-jumpers. Then he stays on to work as a ranch-hand.

Ideally, these shouldn't be any longer than a comment-box, but I don't object to longer pieces.

In return, anyone who writes me one of these in a fandom I read, I will write a requested ficbit for.

Putting up the headers and links for the fics I've done since "Advance and Follow". I know I did link to "Little Red Corvette" already, but I figure having the headers will be nice.

Title: Little Red Corvette
Fandom: G1 Transformers
Pairing: Tracks/Blaster
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 809
Summary: Just because one is undercover doesn't mean one can't have a little rendezvous with one's lover. Especially if he's also undercover.
Author's Notes: This takes place in the early '00s on Cybertron. Also, I fell back on using semi-appropriate song titles for my fics since I couldn't think of anything better.

Thanks to lunatron, charles_rb, and ravynfyre for help on this fic.

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 879
Warnings: Dark themes and violence.
Summary: When your life is spinning rapidly out-of-control, Starscream adding himself into the mix is never any help whatsoever.
Author's Notes: This story is way, way more Megatron/Starscream than Megatron/Optimus. Sorry.

Also, Starscream isn't a masochist.

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.

Having to explain something on DeviantArt led to me having to put into words why I found it really obvious that a fair amount of fan-characters are Seekers.

Almost all Transformers fans are at least familiar with G1. A lot of them like it. Therefore, a lot of Transformer fans have G1 designs in their heads.

A subset of Transformers fans have their own OCs. Some of them are Autobot OCs, and thus not relevent to this. Some of them are Decepticon OCs.

A good chunk of all OCs are G1 OCs. Since some of the G1 OCs are Decepticon OCs, it stands to reason that people will at least glance at the canon materials for what kind of transformation schemes Decepticons use.

Since there are a lot of guys with the so-called "Seeker" transform among the G1 Decepticons, it follows that a fair amount of fan-characters would go with the "Seeker" transform. Especially since, like Jazz and Prowl's transformation scheme in regards to cars, it can be reused with different jets as the vehicle-mode.

Agree/disagree? Discuss?

Ganked from Dun and Pitten.

Ask me why I 'ship something. Why I'm into any particular 'ship or even why I'm *not* into another ship? Ex: What is it you like about so-and-so or why don't you like so-and-so? (Basically just ask me to explain m'self about why I like something about a ship, or how I feel about anything in particular about a couple, etc.)

Alternately ask me the same thing about liking/disliking specific characters or general series.

Edit: For the explanations I provide, you can tack on an arbitrary "Because it's hawtsome!" at the end.
