I actually have a Google doc titled "plot bunnies" to keep track of these things (sort of; I know a lot of them get lost because I forget to copy them into the doc). If you love any of these and end up writing them, please let me know about it so I can read the story! (Unless you take the disturbing one and write a serial killer story, because I'm not into serial killer fic.)


You know, we always assume Pete is all subby, but there should be a story where he gets turned into a werewolf and turns out to be an alpha. No one is more surprised by this than Pete. Patrick swears a lot when Pete uses his alpha thing to get his own way.

Ryan (Luciani, not Ross) ends up pregnant. Mike K, being the only sensible person in that group, explains that he's going to have a baby and he can't live in his car/people's couches. The Stegers are practically family, so Ryan moves in with Max and the Steger parentals. Then Max/Ryan, obviously.

*

Possibly horrifying plot bunny: Zack quietly takes care of anyone who might hurt Brendon or Spencer.

*

You know all that fic where Pete sexes up Patrick to show him he's attractive? There should be fic like that about Max. I would even read fic where Pete (creepy or not) is the one sexing him up.

*

Andy Hurley and Misha Collins both tweeted about the protests in Barcelona. Where's that cracky fic? They meet, and Misha's like, "I already have a threesome," and Andy's like, "That's cool. Want to have sex anyway?"

Once upon a time, I was going to make an illustrated Black Cards mini-primer/plot bunny, but I didn't get my act together and then they kept losing members, and now this is all that's left of it.

There are four people in the Black Cards:

Pete Wentz (bass, frontman): formerly of Fall Out Boy, father of Jessica Simpson's nephew, soon to be ex-husband of Ashlee Simpson
Bebe Rexha (vocals): the girl, formerly of a publicly unnamed wedding band
Nate Patterson (guitar/keyboard): the one I know nothing about
Spencer Peterson (drums): Cobra Starship's Nate Novarro's best friend and former drum tech

You do have to pay close attention, though, to know there are four of them. Publicity is all Pete or Pete and Bebe. The sense I get from Twitter is that Nate, Spencer, and Bebe hang out together. I would love to read a story that examines that. Possibly something about how Pete feels very alone/isolated - he has this whole new band full of people who seem to like each other more than him, he's getting divorced, so many of his friends live far across the country - and how he slowly comes to realize he can be part of this group with his band.

Summary: "No," Patrick says, "you did fine." He's quiet for a long moment. "Sometimes you just have to tie him up and fuck him."

Notes: This was going to be a kinky threesome sort of story, with lots of things about how each twosome within that threesome works.

Warning/Enticement: Kink.

Summary: Pete glares at Gabe the best he can with his head twisted at a weird angle under Bebe's arm.

Story on AO3


( Tangled )

I really want a story where Pete meets an unexpected dude somewhere (like Starbucks or the park or Whole Foods) who is really good with Bronx, to the point that Bronx invites him to sit/play/come home with them. Eventually, Pete and unexpected dude fall in love and have sex on days when Bronx is with Ashlee.

The question about this plot bunny is: who should the unexpected dude be? A Jonas brother? ("You're dating a Jonas," Gabe says, with a look that says way more than his words.) Chris Pine? ("Captain Kirk," Gabe says. "Is it out of this world?") Peter Dinklage? (Gabe says, "I can't believe you found another Peter even shorter than you.") Suggestions welcome!

I am less than twenty-four hours away from one of the greatest pleasures known to workingkind: a three-day weekend. Fourth of July is even one of the three holidays we actually get paid for. I thought that with the extra spare time in my life, and the fact that although I've been getting a lot of work done on my other projects, I haven't been coming up with much outside of them, it's a good time for prompt snippets. Leave me a prompt and I'll write you something by Monday night! Fine print: One per person. Lurkers welcome. Generally first come first served, although things may jump the queue depending on inspiration. I may wander from your original prompt.

Once upon a time, inlovewithnight posted this picture:

( Picture! )

I said, "I am especially amused by the one where Travis and the other guy are like, 'Picture taking! Pose!' and Pete is all, 'Doggy!'" This led to a discussion of how Pete was the kid who always had to be reminded to be soft with the kitty. Not that he would want to hurt anyone or anything, just that he was enthusiastic when he wanted to play. And then I wrote a snippet about Gabe warning Bebe about that quality.

I've been thinking about social networks and fandom for a while, specifically since LJ introduced the crosspost to Facebook/Twitter feature and everyone freaked out. ( This got long. )

But even with all that, I know what eleanor_lavish means. On days when I'm busy, my friends list, small as it is, seems overwhelming, but on weekends I refresh and refresh and refresh and wish there were more going on. I have recently become more likely to make small, one-off posts about something I just found. (It's not really a joke when I say I'm always two to three years behind the rest of fandom. I should have all my fic uploaded to AO3 by 2015 or so.) If I did more of that, if I posted here with my favorite picture of the day (not every day, but whenever there's one I love) with commentary, if I posted small plot bunny of the day posts instead of saving them all up for one giant post, would you read them and join in the conversation or would it be too much clutter on your friends list?

TL;DR version:

• I love social networking. You should be friends with me on Facebook. (I only ask that you let me know who you are if I don't already know your real name.) You can also follow me on Twitter.


• Feel free to unfriend/unfollow me at any time.


• I love email. You can send me some even if we don't know each other that well. You should also feel free to comment here, at any time. If you find an older post and want to comment, I have no problem with that. Talking about fannish things is my favorite thing in the world.


• I will absolutely and completely respect your boundaries around keeping your identities separate.


• I might post here more often, and I am open to suggestions as to communities I should be posting to.

Having learned my lesson from the last concert review I posted, a note to those of you who have arrived here via Google Alerts: I am the fan fiction writing variety of fangirl. Anything in here about the possibility of people mentioned sleeping together is wholly imaginary and meant for fun, not as either reality or an insult. (If you're a Vizzy fan, being upset that I didn't like him is a perfectly valid life choice.)

westingturtle asked for more from the world of Want It Anyway. You probably don't need to read that for this to make sense.

Warnings: Angst, discussion of abortion, men trying to dictate a woman's reproductive choices, yelling and insults.

This is something I left in a comment to inlovewithnight for reasons that are now lost to me.
