ladydey: SV, Clark/Lex - People always assume that Clark is the "light" to Lex's "darkness." They have no idea how many ways or the number of times Lex has gladly saved the world - from Clark. Note: this didn’t go the way I meant it to, sorry. ( IDIC ) runpunkrun: Maybe you could take Clark and Lex and recast them in a romantic comedy? Note: So, very very AU. ( While you were sleeping )END

nrrrdy_grrrl: I'd love to see an AU cross-over between X files and SPN where Dean is the Mulder character, Sam is the missing Samantha (but not gender-swap)… Jo is Scully … Note: the prompt was too detailed for a snippet, and I couldn't write more than that, so I just picked. ( Do you believe in the existence of demons? )End.

svmadelyn: I'd love to see some Sam/Dean, or, ah, Sam/Lucifer on the theme of an Indecent Proposal. NC-17. Came out as Lucifer + Sam/Dean. It is permitted in time of great danger to walk with the devil until you have crossed the bridge. – Bulgarian proverb ( Crossing the Bridge )

lomedet: BtVS: Giles, Xander, abracadabra ( You can do magic ) ruby_jelly: what happened next, in Finders Keepers (Sam/Dean), after Az discovered Dean's mutiny? And was Sammy as squeaky sweet as Dean wanted him to be? And did Sammy really think possession or partners? (Note 1: I think what came out is closer to this prompt than to thuviaptarth’s “FindersKeepers!Sam finds Dean more than he bargained for,” though I could see where one might disagree. Note 2: I’ve borrowed the name I used for “Meg” in Captured by the Game.) ( The fire in earnest )

catdancerz , sol_se , realpestilence , rejeneration , laceymcbain , bexless , ingridmatthews, ciian , flesh , sprat , grlnamedlucifer , suzvoy , pinkfinity (Cthuluclaus!), gblvr (another Cthuluclaus!), and anonymous givers: thanks so much for the virtual gifts! You are sweet and I feel terribly guilty about being out of the loop right now. I go through feast and famine with stories; hopefully more feasts are on the way, with my Eight Crazy Nights about to start. ( hip-hop and intellectual property; art and law; luxury brands; and sex for pay )

1. Is it just me, or did Legend of the Seeker kick it up a notch in the past two episodes and start decreasing the pretty:interesting ratio? (While arguably getting prettier, even!) 2. Consider, if you will, that the all-male lawyers at this Texas firm saw nothing wrong with the images appearing on their website. (Possibly triggery for sexual abuse/child abuse.) I actually believe very strongly that we need defense lawyers who specialize in crimes for which even defending an accused is excoriated—but this isn’t the way to do it. 3. Now for something completely different. I am a technological incompetent with a CMS on my website and a planned move to a new webhost. Anybody have recommendations for cheap assistance doing the move? And by assistance, I mean: somebody to whom I could trust with my site password and have the thing moved? Because the semester is so crazy, we’re probably looking at a move in early 2010.

It's getting towards that time of year--less than a month to Hanukkah. So prompt me for my Eight Crazy Nights of fic posting. You might get a snippet, you might get a longer story. Available fandoms are at least: SPN, Chuck, Fringe, SV, BtVS, XF, The Inside, and you're welcome to try your luck with anything else. Multiple prompts welcome, though I will try to fill at least one of everyone's before circling back around. Prompts need not be Hanukkah-themed. comments on DW
First, thanks so much! I’m pretty catholic in my tastes, and I really appreciate finding stories in a rare fandom. As indicated by my fairly vague prompts, I focus most on character. I love plot, but I also love angst and hijinks. Other things I like: flawed heroes, the Gift of the Magi, getting the thing that you want the most except that it’s broken, banter, love strong enough to rock the world, trust, betrayal, power games, bodyswap, genderswap, sex pollen, consequences, telling the truth in a way that the hearer doesn’t believe it, characters who think they’re lying but aren’t, shaggy dog stories, love and blood and rhetoric, and so on. I do not mind unhappy endings; I love melodrama and characters who defy melodrama. Pretty much the only thing I don’t like: bashing female characters. ( Anna to the Infinite Power )( Chuck )( Middleman! )

1. Deep fannish thought of the day: Nobody ever inquires into the identificatory position of the guy watching lesbian (quote unquote) porn—we don’t talk about him as torn between the positions “do I want to do her or do I want to be her?” (Are we that uncomfortable with women in the subject position "director"?) 2. ( Chuck talk )3. ( Legend of the Seeker premiere )4. Coffee and Consent: From Until Someone Wakes Up, a play written by Carolyn Levy and a group of Macalester College students: Waiter: Would you like some coffee? Woman: Yes, please. Waiter: Just say when. (Starts to pour.) Woman: There. (He keeps pouring.) That's fine. (He pours.) Stop! (She grabs the pot; there is coffee everywhere.) Waiter: Yes, ma'am. Woman: Well, why didn't you stop pouring? Waiter: Oh, I wasn't sure you meant it. Woman: Look, of course I meant it! I have coffee all over my lap! You nearly burned me! Waiter: Forgive me, ma'am, but you certainly looked thirsty. I thought you wanted more. Woman: But - Waiter: And you must admit, you did let me start to pour.

... and what it means for fans, from serrico . Read it here! My emotional reaction to what SPN is doing with fans has largely been negative, but I don't think that invalidates it as storytelling (just makes the storytellers jerks, and ties in with their other gender issues, but that's a whole 'nother thing). Jayne's analysis is really useful as categorization and explanation of why Heroes feels so cold in its interactivity even as it's doing everything Henry Jenkins is selling as the future of entertainment.
