Oh! I've been meaning to drop this meme on y'all for a while! Ganked from approximately half my writing f-list. O.o

Give me the title of a story I've never written, and feedback telling me what you liked best about it, and I will tell you any of: the first sentence, the last sentence, the thing that made me want to write it, the biggest problem I had while writing it, why it almost never got posted, the scene that hit the cutting room floor but that I wish I'd been able to salvage, or something else that I want readers to know.

You guys know my fandoms! If I don't know it, I'll make something up.

I LOVE ESPECIALLY THE FANART YOU MADE OF THE GIANT PANDA-EEL, KAT. XD

I also agree that the Pevensies as not-siblings was a great idea for AU. My favorite bit was Edmund discovering television.

...Is Kat supposed to be me? *confused*

Edmund discovering television! *loves* Because of course, Edmund would TAKE THE TELEVISION APART and Lucy would have lots of fun with that too, and they would be SO CONFUSED but utterly addicted to it. Also, how they all become addicted to different reality shows at one point or another. YES.

Also, Lass, remember the Merlin television AU? So, random idea came to me while I was showering (yes, while showering). Arthur technically is in charge of organizing the television reporters for CNN, except he's very busy, so one of his knights Sir Whats-His-Face does it for him. Originally, they broadcasted everything, but then Uther got tired of hearing about how Farmer #283's cow had a calf, so they limited some of their broadcasting. And, that sounds kind of communist.

Haha yes that is you! I was considering calling you Kata, but I went with Kat. Maybe I should have gone with [livejournal.com profile] katakokk :)

I DO. Awesome! I love stories about journalists. WEIRDLY ENOUGH, I started writing investigative journalist AU in commentfic here.

Hahaha, Kata seems a little odd. But no one's ever really called me Kat before, so I was kinda like, "Huh?" Also, there's a couple girls at my school called Kat so that confused me. XD

Journalists stories are very cool. And oooh, commentfic! *runs off to read*

Edmund with the TV was a blast - probably my favorite part was the little section where Peter's reading history books and Edmund keeps interjecting these little interesting tidbits and then giving him an innocent look and saying 'It's the History Channel!'

Also, he and Lucy wrestle over the remote while Peter and Susan have sex. Um.

First sentence: Most people generally agree that when you find yourself somewhere you're sure you can't be, you're actually going insane.

Last sentence: "Peter, the camcorder is not for making rude faces into!" Edmund shouts, and tackles him onto the bed.

Betsy, you're making me want to see this for real. *loves*

Haha, the camcorder has seen so much. Poor thing.

Instead of Merlin Video Diaries, PEVENSIE VIDEO DIARIES. Y/Y?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[Camera focuses on an extreme close-up of Susan's cheek, and zooms out to reveal her bent over a desk writing on a scroll.]
Lucy's voice: This is Susan, the other queen. She likes roses, and peace treaties, and a certain prince from Galma--
Susan: [Looks up.] Lu! What have I told you about disturbing people with the camera!
[Camera goes into zigzagging blurs of the corridors, Lucy's running feet occasionally appearing onscreen.]
Lucy's voice, a bit breathless: She's only pretending to dislike cameras!

[identity profile] katakokk.livejournal.com 2009-09-16 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Camera zig zags more, panting can be heard through, the camera eventually pans downward into a courtyard]
Lucy's voice: And there are Peter and Edmund doing...knightly things. [Camera zoom in some] Damn, it doesn't zoom in more!

YYYYYY

Mr. Tumnus: Your majesty, you have paperwork to do -
[camera shuts off]
[comes back on]
Edmund: *unintelligible muttering* damn, how do you work this? how does Lucy do it?
Peter: Ed, this is a family dinner, not a political opportunity!
[camera focuses on Peter as he scowls.]
Edmund: Did I say anything about political opportunities? Why do you always assume the worst of me?
[Peter rolls his eyes and stabs his meat.]
Lucy: Tape Susan, tape Susan -
[camera swings towards Susan]
Lucy: she's got her elbows on the table!
Susan: I am confiscating that tape later!
Edmund: Only if you can find it!

[camera turns on, zoomed in on rumpled sheets]
Lucy: *yawn* Good morning! Oh, [camera pans up and zooms out] This is my room! Let's go spy on Susan and see if she's still asleep.
[camera focuses on Lucy's bare feet]
Lucy: *sing-song* SUSAN!
