WIP meme!

I haven't done this one since 2004, but [personal profile] resonant just did it and I thought I'd give it a whirl...


Aral/Jole follow-up to "As You Tap on Your Glass"

Cordelia: You know, you should really hook up with Jole.
Aral: Do I have to?
Cordelia: Of course you don't have to.
Aral: Oh, hm. Well.
Jole: *has not shown up yet*
Me: This is the part where you're supposed to realize that you want to, Aral.
Aral: Do I have to?
Me: YES.
Aral: Well I'm not gonna.
Cordelia: I thought we'd just established that that approach doesn't work well.
Me: I guess that's why I've just been sitting here staring at this fic for two months now.



SG-1 Moebius OT3gypt story

Daniel: I'm weird in ways that would make more sense if you'd started the story earlier.
Geek!verse Sam and Jack: We've developed as characters in ways that would be apparent if you'd started the story earlier.
Geek!verse Teal'c: I'm dead, which actually makes a certain amount of sense.
Daniel's daughter: My whole existence, to say nothing of my weird characterization, would make more sense if you'd started the story earlier.
Me: Hey, what if I started the story twenty-four hours earlier? The three hours of in-story time I've already written have only run up 15,000 words, so that probably wouldn't create any problems, except... dammit.
Daniel: You know, when you first started writing this story in 2004 you did get that part of it right.
Me: You shut up or I'll write a whole story about the part where the baby had colic.
Daniel: [shuts up]

Stargate multi-universe OT4 story

Jack: *is sad*
Sam, Daniel, and Teal'c: *are sad in a different universe*
Jack: I am not going to take this lying down!
Sam, Daniel, and Teal'c: This sucks, and we will just have to console each other with sex.
Me: *fades to black*
Jack: I am going to go find the others! In another universe! Which ... is going to get complicated.
Me: You need a montage!
Jack: Hey, yeah! I need a montage! Write me a montage!
Me: Uhhh... Hey, what's that over there?
Jack: What over where?
Me: *runs away*

Rose and Metacrisis!Ten Could Totally Work Out, Dammit, You Don't Know

Metacrisis!Ten: I am totally just like the Doctor except for how I'm not!
Rose: Well, as long as the "not" includes "not leaving Rose in other universes" I can work with that.
Metacrisis!Ten: Also, I am going to bond with your baby brother, but, like, not in a creepy way.
Tony: *is happy about that*
Rose: You're sure this isn't creepy?
Metacrisis!Ten: Absolutely! Also I'm going to need a name without an exclamation point in the middle, because most English-speakers can't pronounce that.
Rose: ...True.
Metacrisis!Ten: Although being human kind of sucks.
Rose: You don't even have to deal with periods.
Metacrisis!Ten and Rose, in unison: THIS IS TOTALLY GOING TO WORK OUT, DAMMIT.
Me: *runs away while they're distracted*

Drake and Josh and a Baby But More Like That One Molly Ringwald Movie Than the Episode with the Baby

Drake: *is suddenly a teen father*
Drake: *is in shock*
Josh: *touches Drake unnecessarily*
Drake: *touches Josh unnecessarily*
Baby: *has not actually shown up yet*
Me: *facepalm*

White Collar Dancing Story

Tim DeKay: *dances in blooper reel*
Tim DeKay: *dances at ComicCon*
Me: I should really write a story where Peter actually can dance and Neal is all like O.O and wants to jump him.
Me: ...Yep, I should really write that.
Me: *runs away*

I believe it is a moral imperative that you write that White Collar story. (OMG how freaking HOT was Tim in that clip?)

Excellent! I love how so many of your stories end in the author's flight. It's, like, a theme or something. It's how I know I'm in the right place.
