meme!

[bedlamsbard]

Here is a meme! Borrowed from several people. As per usual, am curious to see if I actually get any responses. (I'm...going through one of my slightly paranoid fits.)

I was thinking you should tell me about stories you think I should write. I mean, if you could sit me down for a day or whatever and say, "Bed, I want you to write this story for me," what would that story be?

I'm not actually promising to *write* any of these, mind you, but it's fun anyway. And who knows if I'll be inspired!

You are not going to like my answers, since they are not Star Wars-related, hehe.

I would like Narnian Golden Age adventure with all Pevensies playing a part. And I would always like more Dust. :D

[bedlamsbard]

It's not as if I have given up Narnia forever and ever! For example, today I wrote more Border Wars.

And Dust is...well, I am waiting for the point where I can look at it without going, "Someone somewhere hates the way I write my characters, and that is a reflection on me as a horrible writer and a horrible human being."

i'm fairly certain you don't know anything at all about DC's batman but i want you to write about robins. the ones who grow up to be almost okay adults, the ones who are brutally murdered and may or may not come back, the ones that are raised as tiny assassin babies and are turned into human beings by being robin. the girl robin all the writers of the comics want to pretend didn't happen. the stubborn robins. the robins who have daddy/partner issues. batgirls too.

i'm totally okay that you'll never write about them, but i think you'd have some excellent thoughts and have fun.

I actually know enough about the Robins to be able to name most of them! (And...let's see which ones I can do: Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Cassandra Cain, and Stephanie...something.) But not enough to actually write anything about them, even though it is the sort of thing I might be into. (The last time I did comics fic was...I think I played around with Ultimate Fantastic Four a bit back in high school.)

stephanie brown. cass is technically a batgirl, but very robin like in her relationship with the bat. damien wayne is the newest robin. carrie kelly is robin that may or may not happen in the future.

they have issues with their god, bedlam. that's sort of your thing. angry teenagers who don't think like teenagers because of responsibility. teenagers who may or may not be sleeping with each other. robin-cest is a thing. i could point you towards things if you want to know more about robins.

[bedlamsbard]

Teenagers with issues with their god, moi? *laughs* I might have a thing for that.

Oh, I have an answer for this one! But it's Narnia and Junior!Pevensies: I would really love to see you write Peter and Helen being wonderful together. Either with her as a little girl and besotted daddy!Peter or later when she's in her teens and he's teaching her to kick butt and take names. (The first time they go on campaign together!)

[bedlamsbard]

Oh, man, Junior Pevensies. Now there's something I haven't thought about it in a while.

(I'm not off Narnia. I'm just taking a break until I'm more or less over my issues.)

[lady_songsmith]

I can't imagine you going off Narnia completely, but I knew you hadn't done Jr Pevensies in a looooong while. :) Hence the slightly apologetic tone.

[bedlamsbard]

Ah. Yeah, JP was always more aella_irene's thing than mine, and we kind of went cold turkey when we started our original. (We've got one fic that we just never finished to post.)
