Hey Moon

[turps]

I bought a dress yesterday, significant because it's been years since I've done so. Hell, now I'm thinking about it I don't think I've ever bought one. I did have a very nifty purple culotte suit back in the day but a dress, not so much. I've been eyeing this dress for a while and kept trying it on when I was in the shop, and I have to admit, it's very pleasing to see it fitting better each time. So yeah, I have a dress, very casual, black, maxi length and I may wear a t-shirt over it because I don't know if I'm brave enough to wear it as it is, but I have it.

We had a nice day yesterday just me and James going for a drive, good music playing, the car windows down. Eventually we ended up at the beach and went for a stroll around the harbour and watched the yachts. We also ended up sitting on a bench talking about tentacle porn, which was interesting.

Lately arsenicjade has been helping me plot gritty hookerfic and chuckaloonie got me talking about Jamia/Frank/Bob with Mikey watching and sperrywink gets to hear details about the badfic I've been reading. She's a good friend, even if she talks me out of chastity belt kinks.

This morning I've been watching the video of that video of Brendon and Ian that's everywhere on my flist. It's fun, they made me laugh a lot.

But now I need to go wake my boys so we can go see nanna and dad.

you should a) post pictures of your adorable new dress and b) talk more about gritty hookerfics. \o/

The thing is though, the dress is adorable, I am not. :(

But, gritty hooker fic!

At the moment it's nothing but sheer self-indulgence with no actual plot. I do have vague ideas how to create a plot but right now am mostly stuck on specific scenes that I keep poking at in my head. As you may guess those scenes are all of the h/c variety.

People getting beaten up and captured, having to sleep together for warmth and do degrading things just to survive. Knives against skin and illness and the strength to carry on when everything around you is pain and hurt. I want to get Ryan into the story someone, him forced to be some kind of spy and for him to slowly form friendships all the while giving info to the big bad who uses it to hurt Gerard and his gang.

Mikey to be taken and Gerard presumes him dead which leads to him giving up and the others trying to keep order while the big bad takes over and places that were relatively safe are flooded with drugs and heavies.

Ryan knowing who's got Mikey but knowing if he helps him escape it means putting himself and Spencer in danger, but he does it anyway and gets M out and reveals all to Gerard who goes from an apathetic mess to someone determined to take back his territory and also get Spencer.

Basically it's an excuse to be mean to them all. I'm enjoying it a lot.

this is the best motivation to write fic ever. though i must point out there's not much hurt!gerard in these ideas! there should be MORE.

seriously, best wip ever. except for your runaways *__________*

See, this is why I love you, because you demand more hurt, and that is a good thing! I'm sure I can get Gerard into trouble somehow.

Poor little Ryan, he's been lying on that road for too long now.

you're welcome *bows*

inorite? MORE CONSIDERATION FOR POOR CAR-HIT RYANS, PLEASE.

Okay, sorry for jump-threading so much, but YES, BE MEAN TO THEM A LOT AND MAKE THEM CRY AND GIVE UP ON LIFE AND AND AND. It's okay, they'll get their happy ending (I assume, I don't really care if they don't, I like sad endings when that's what works best with the story).

BASICALLY I'M EXCITED FOR EVERYTHING YOU'RE WRITING AT THE MOMENT. \o/

I'm being very mean to them! Bob is hooking too, he has a regular who gets off on dressing Bob up, revelling in the feeling of power as Bob has to sit and passively do everything the guy wants.

Bob does not like having shiny hair and vanilla scented skin! Even if it does mean he gets a night in an actual warm room.

They will get a happy ending though. That is important!

Poor Bobert! But I totally understand his regular. I mean, it's too easy to do that to someone like, let's say, Brendon; but getting a guy like Bob to do it? Talk about a power trip!

I do prefer happy endings! Except when they seemed forced; in those cases I'd much rather read a sad ending that makes sense, than a happy one that makes an otherwise good fic seem like a soap opera or a Lifetime movie.
