Recs + reqs
Oct. 28th, 2008 04:34 pmBusy as a house on fire, lately, but there's always time for distractions, and I figure smaller ones are better than bigger ones. Ergo:
One-sentence drabble meme!
You give me a fandom, and then a character, or a word-prompt, or a small unicorn, or a scenario -- I'll give you a sentence. You are free to a) give me as many prompts as you like b) cross things over like stitches c) ask me for fandoms I don't usually write. No promises on how many sentences I'll get back to you if you ask me for a million, though. :D
And some recs:
Stained Glass Sky, by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
icor. Final Fantasy VII, Cissnei/Aerith - such beautiful worldbuilding, and easy-to-read characterisation. Some of the best and only femmeslash you'll get in the fandom these days.
Tiny Halloween Crisis Core cast fanart, bymogumogu. I weep at the Kunsel. Weep.
[edit]
And some meta:
People who've read my stuff tell me that I worldbuild a lot, which is kinda funny, because it's not something I realise that I do. How can I? I live in a tiny island. I'm young. I haven't seen enough of the world. Sometimes I wonder, how dare I, but I never really thought about it.
Neil Gaiman did, when he wrote American Gods. The book's practically cult reading in fandom, and if you're read it, or will ever read it, that tiny little introspective by Neil will both humble you and make you want to see more than what the viewport of your life has let you see.
And then dare to be daring.
