The Dragon challenge authors have been revealed, so I guess I can say that I wrote Seven Plus One Equals None.

It's a crack fic, simple as. I had no ideas for the challenge at all, except for this vague thought of Kevin as Snow White, because it fits. He's dark haired, fair of face ( he is, shut up! ) and of course the dwarves could be sparkly cast. At this point I emailed [livejournal.com profile] ephemera and told her, I'm having Snow White thoughts, talk me out of them. She didn't. In fact what she did was bring it up when I was down at [livejournal.com profile] nopseud's for a mini sparkly meet up. Now these are the people who birthed Lamp, Pecker and all sorts of insanity. As soon as they were told I knew I'd be writing crack, and I did.

Some people liked the story, others didn't at all. I expected that. I mean, Kevin was the main character, I had Prince and Pete Wentz as two of the dwarves. There's no relationships except for some Kevin/Nick if you squint. Plus, humour is subjective, what I find funny may not translate to other people. But man, I did enjoy writing this. Even thought it wasn't trouble free. I owe [livejournal.com profile] nopseud, [livejournal.com profile] vaudevilles and [livejournal.com profile] mkstranny so much for their advice, support and beta skills. At one point all three beta read for me over night, because I suck and the story was so late. They made me look at the story, change things, add things, just made it better in so many ways. Sadly the gay dwarf orgy didn't make it in there *g*

It isn't an important story. It's not going to strike any hearts or be remembered, but you know. I like JC the online advice giver. I love Snarky, Winky, Twitchy, Emoey, Porno, The Artist Formally Known As Squeaky and Smiley. Joey made a good Avon man and you know Kevin would whip those dwarves into shape. So, I'm glad a couple of other people enjoyed it too, and despite the crit I read, I wouldn't change a thing. Well, maybe add in that orgy. You know dwarves give good head ;)

Thanks goes to [livejournal.com profile] pensnest for running such an awesome challenge. There were so many stories I loved this year. Dragons rule!

ETA: Clearing confusion for those that need it. Snarky = Lance. Twitchy = Chris. Winky = Howie. Porno = AJ. Smiley = Brian. Emoey = Pete Wentz. The Artist Formally Known As Squeaky = Prince.
