At the top of my GDocs file it says No one is viewing and every time I re-read it as no one is watching, which is just creepy.
Today Corey has gone out for the day with his friends and James is at work so I intend to crack on with the ways+1. I have to, I love my betas and they have to get tired of me sending stuff and saying I need it for the next day. It's an exchange story so I can't talk details but I'm veering between liking what I have and thinking I'm going insane. Right now insanity is winning.
When I'm done I'm going to write hooker fic, glorious, shameless, hookerfic. I just have to decide if I'm going for the high-class version with Mikey and Pete and eating waffles and no sex or the rougher version which I'd use for a h/c bingo fill.
Talking of shameless, following a link from google alerts last night I ended up on Fic Wad. In my defence it's been a long time since I indulged in terrible badfic. Of course the story that attracted my attention was barred to non-members, which was okay, because when I double clicked in the log in box I was already a member. Which is how I spent a good hour reading about bulimic cutter Mikey who got taken away to a mental institution But, even that wasn't as good as the story that had my new favourite phrase. Bob wasn't namby pamby about things. Too right, Bob is never namby pamby. This is a different story btw, just in case you thought anti namby pamby Bob was hanging with bulimic cutter Mikey.
I've had heart-eyes over all the Comic Con pictures, and may have had this one open in full size in a tab for days now. He's so pretty! Also, apart from the ones of Gerard shopping, which are adorable because he's so intent on his potential purchases, I really love

Look at his little clasped hands? How so adorable G Way? Also, Ray, pose more you amazing man, and Frank, be more thrilled about your babies, I dare you. See if you burst from sheer joy.
I love them in all their dirty, screechy glory.

Date: 2010-07-27 10:28 pm (UTC)i'm not gonna lie, i'm the kind of angst whore that would really enjoy a bulimic, or a cutter mikey. ANGST MOAR, PLZ. i think if it was written carefully, with knowledge of the issue, and of characterisation it could be well done. that being said, i totally wasted an hour of my life reading this ryan/brendon that was horrible, it didn't even double space between paragraphs, because it was a boarding school AU. sometimes it's important to sacrifice quality for lolz.
HISPANIC BATMAN. oh gway, don't ever stop being you.
in conclusion, write both!

Date: 2010-07-27 10:44 pm (UTC)I've always wanted a well written eating disorder fic. Or cutting, any of those self abusing tropes. The problem is, the only people that tend to write them are the badfic writers and they do so with purple prose and really bad writing, which means those topics end up being mocked by a lot of people.
Mikey's the obvious person for something like that, but I think with careful writing it could be applied to Bob too, how he dropped so much weight after joining the band.
I've wasted days of my life to 8902792 part badfic epics. Stories where the only resemblance to the people I know are the names and full of epithet and grammar issues that make me cringe. But they deal with my bullet proof kinks and so I'm helpless in my need to read.
I like your conclusion!

Date: 2010-07-28 01:54 am (UTC)*shrugs* I don't see why they have to be mocked, cliched things. Drinking into a coma is self harm, and it's early MCR canon, and many people write that era. I just want a fic where Bob or Mikey or Spencer or Joe stops eating and it takes awhile for the rest of the band to notice.
YOU KNOW WHAT I'D REALLY LIKE TO SEE? (and I feel like an idiot for the caps, because that probably proves I'm not mature enough to write it, but it just hit me and I was very excited, and I caps when I'm excited) Ray with trichotilomania. There was someone in my OCD management group back in the day with it. I think it could be really interesting to see.
I know! It was a boarding school AU, which is totally my thing thanks to my favourite series as a child (and HP didn't help that craving either, lemme tell you) but it was so faily. Ryan kept on calling it a British boarding school, and all the students except him had accents, but it was in MINNESOTA. And then the lack of double enter paragraphs, and using strike throughs when Ryan would change his opinion about something. But it was 24 chapters, and there was going to be porn at some point. I kept on repeating "make it through, there will be sex, just make it through". I had to stop at chapter 7, I just couldn't do it anymore.
My conclusions are always shiny and amazing. Because YOU OWE IT TO THE WORLD to write a mikey/pete in a diner, after you so creully posted a 100 word comment drabble of it. At the same time, GERARD IS A PIMP, AND RAY DOESN'T COME HOME!!! There is no wrong in this!

That boarding school AU sounds horrible. Obvious mistakes like that drive me insane and it's a shame because a lot of these poorly written stories contain good ideas. Some help grammar wise etc and they could be so much better.
I will write both sets of hookers! And enjoy doing so.
