no_tags reveals went up, so I can say that I wrote the Mikey/Alicia/Pete story A Different Way to Walk for the prompt, they've been together a long time. It's a prompt that jumped out at me when I saw the list, mainly because just before I'd been talking to various people about how I wanted the story of Mikey and Pete's relationship from beginning to end, and how it would eventually end up as a threesome with Alicia. Obviously that's not the story I wrote, but it is kind of a light version of that.
I was pleased with the comments I got and the fact for the first time I managed to post straight to the right community and not the actual ficletfairy journal. Unlike the first year when it took me forever to work out why I couldn't see my posted story on my flist, and last time when I did exactly the same thing again.
I really want someone to write the Merry Gentry prompt that's in the bonus round of no_tags. Like I said on twitter, bandom is made for hair swishing and sex. You know the Way bros need to have tri-coloured eyes and hair that brushes the floor. Pete could be Merry, cast out of court but instead of being a detective he'd have Clan Industries and he'd bring people's powers through sex. By accident at first. Sex with Mikey. Surprise, Mikey can now command liquid! Sex with Gabe. Surprise, Gabe can now control will via suggestion. Sex with Ryan. Surprise, Ryan can now write words that make things come true.
It would end in orgies. Of course.
I didn't get to read all the stories before reveal, but I did read a nice chunk, and they really are great. I also found out that it was
cincodemaygirl who wrote Knitters Aren't Quitters for my prompt where Pete takes up knitting and starts sending Mikey home made knitted gifts, starting with hats. -- surprise, that was my prompt! -- and managed to write the story I'd wanted so badly. I love it a lot.
Oh, and Bandom BFF challenge. Gerard and Mikey are best friends, right? They've stated that many times. I do love gen stories a lot, and BFFs. You can't go wrong with that. I'm considering signing, though probably asking for Mikey and Frank.
Corey came home yesterday and has had a great time. He loved Paris and as well as the usual touristy observations has told both me and his dad about how the McDonalds there is better. Apparently taking your order in the queue and having a separate McCafe is the way to impress teens. He really did love what he saw of the city and had a blast at Disney, even though it was really cold. He got presented with a signed card and mug and his classmates and teachers sang happy birthday to him on Sat, so he had a nice birthday, too.
A few hours and we're taking mam for a scan, need to go shopping, home, to Corey's physio appointment and then on to nanna's as she's 93 today. We may be driving Kay to her doctor's appointment too, which has the potential for awkwardness as she's fallen out with mam again. They only started speaking last week, and within a few days things happened and we're back to anger and silence between then. I'm very tempted to blow off the planned birthday dinner and just go with Corey and James. It would lead to a better atmosphere that's for sure.
