Jun. 13th, 2007 03:43 pmThe 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
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
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
nopseud,
vaudevilles and
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
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.

Date: 2007-06-13 04:10 pm (UTC)Lance would be at his computer looking at the items for auction. He'd see the jet skis and straight away he'd phone Joey.
Joey's just woken up and he's trying to understand as Lance hisses about greedy bastards and their jet skis and they need to go get them. Eventually, just to shut Lance up he says, sure, I'll help.
That night he's dressed in black and really, the whole thing is stupid, but Lance loves those skis and Joey loves Lance, so....
They sneak past the guards and run like heck to the lake. They jump onto the jet skis, laughing as they take off together. A security guard just letting them go, because hell, he doesn't get paid enough and it's not like Lou doesn't deserve it.

Date: 2007-06-13 04:32 pm (UTC)While they're doing that Chris and Brian could work on changing Kevin's mind. They'd be casual, drinking beer and sitting close to where Kevin's sitting, talking about all the ways Lou's screwed them out of money. Then they'd start plotting what to do with the things they won, and Kevin would keep leaning closer, listening, and he's getting pissed. Then he'd jump up and start ranting about how he's going to buy the painting then burn it, and hire a detective to find Lou then he's going to go throw the awards through his window.
And the others are egging him on, because man, Kevin's scary but also funny when he's angry!

CAN'T. SPEAK. LAUGHING. TOO. HARD.

Date: 2007-06-13 04:50 pm (UTC)The delivery guy pulls up and all he sees is ten boybanders staring at him, watching as he carries the parcels out of the van. He gets the boxes first, because of course they won a load of stuff, then he gets the painting.
Brian puts his hand on Kevin's arm, because Kevin is furious. He's shaking with rage, his eyebrows low, his mouth nothing but a thin line.
Foregtting about needing a signature, the delivery guy jumps back in his van as Kevin breaks free of Brian's hold.
Brown paper flies through the air as Kevin rips at the package. Then the painting is uncovered. He looks down at Lou's smug face.
"You stole our money! You made us writhe around half naked! We trusted you!"
He'd turn to the others. "Give me the matches."
They do and he's icy calm as he strikes each one. Dropping them onto the painting. "This is for Nick. For AJ, etc etc."
The flames catch hold, and his arms are in the air as he dances around the blazing painting. Yelling and screeching something like greedybastardhatehimburnburnburntrustedhimscumfuckingsleazeball.
The others meanwhile slowly back away ;)
