Check-in no.2

Here is the second check in post, mirrored on our Tumblr.

This is an optional activity, with no deadlines. Answer now, answer later, or skip it completely.



No matter what kind of fanwork you're planning on creating for this challenge, at the heart of it is a story that you want to tell. And until you have an idea of what that story is, it's hard find the inspiration and creativity to start on your fanwork.

So that's the first step. Think about the story you want to tell. It can be detailed and specific (I want FOB as werewolves!) or more general (I want band-as-chosen-family FEELS!) You can tell more than one story, combining them into a sticky sweet concoction of trope-y goodness. You can have a theme, a idée fixe, a narrative kink.

Comment to this post, or reblog on Tumblr, and:

1. tell us what is your favorite type of drink
2. tell us a little bit about the story (or stories, if you haven't settled on just one) you want to tell
3. comment to someone else's comment and cheer them on

Remember, you're not being graded; there is no wrong answer, because all answers are right.

Let's kickstart our creativity!

1. I love water almost as much as I love coffee (which is A LOT) #LOL

2. The story's taking shape. Slowly but steadily. 90% or so is mapped out, so the "only" thing I have to do now is to fill in the blanks, i.e. write the darn thing.

If anything, I'm thrilled that we have a little over a month to finish the rough draft cuz sheesh! \o? AND /o\

1. Iced tea made from Constant Comment.

2. Well the one I'm currently struggling with is a Peterick magical bookstore AU (like a regular bookstore AU but with magic and dragons). I'm about 2/3 done and haven't worked on it much because I'm currently looking for a job. The second is the Victorian vampire AU that's Gerard Way/Grant Morrison and thankfully that one IS finished (or the first draft is anyway

1. Water is awesome.

2. You're awesome and you'll finish and it'll be amazing.

1- I don't really know about a favorite, but I really enjoy a nice cold glass of water when it's been a long day at work talking to customers non-stop

2- I'm almost 15k into what is, basically, if Dennis from 13Ghosts met Frank Bannister from The Frighteners and they became buddies. Just..you know...Gabe and Brendon instead. :)

1: coffee coffee coffee
2: My stories are two things I want to see in the world: ONE: Ray Toro get a lot of love and cuddles and, like, occasionally laid in fic (THIS STORY LITERALLY STARTED OUT BECAUSE SOMEONE COMMENTED ON ONE OF MY FICS AND SAID THEY'D READ ANYTHING EXCEPT RAY/GERARD to which my natural kneejerk response was FINE I'M GOING TO WRITE 25k OF RAY/GERARD THEN) and TWO: Killjoys OT4 with a happy ending. And. Um. Mpreg. Because reasons or something idek, I just ... it's a challenge, okay? The biology is a CHALLENGE I CAN'T RESIST.

That is a very understandable knee-jerk reaction.

Your story sounds fabulous.

I haven't written in almost...2? weeks. So, idk how much a rockstar I am. I just haven't gone back to it, though, I should. I just feel a little listless again. Like it doesn't matter.

So...I take it you might ~like~ coffee? ;)

AL THE RAY/GERARD!!!! NOM, NOM, NOM TO THE MAX!!!!! RAY DESERVES ALL THE CUDDLESSSSS AND SEXY TIEMS.

Oh, mpreg! That it is set in the Killjoys 'verse makes it a pretty cool premise.

[personal profile] doctorkilljoy 2017-04-25 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
It is, what I love about it the most is it still feels cool going down even when it gets to room temperature.

Thanks man, I feel stupid for it but I wanna get these out.

[personal profile] doctorkilljoy 2017-04-25 01:32 pm (UTC)(link)
*hugs* You're the best.

[personal profile] doctorkilljoy 2017-04-25 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
To be fair, I actually finished that story last summer and never bothered to edit or post it because I was like, "Who did I write this for?" But this year I wanna get it out there.

[personal profile] doctorkilljoy 2017-04-25 01:33 pm (UTC)(link)
You're so fucking awesome and I can't wait to read this!
