If you could have me write a fic specifically for you, what would it be like? Fandom, characters/pairing, genre, plot elements, kinks (if applicable)... what's your ideal fic from me?

The Self-Rec Meme 2015
Jan. 4th, 2015 11:50 amHello you!
For 2015 I would very much like to get to know you better. Yes, you, reading this!
One of the best ways I know how to do this is by seeing how and what you create. I feel like when I read or watch something that a creator considers their best work that it says something awesome about the person, often something amazing that's difficult to put into words.
What I would like for you to do is:
(It doesn't have to be the most polished thing, but the thing that you've put the most heart into.) I'm looking for: fanfiction, fanart, fanvids, fan mixes, meta, jokes, rec lists, songs, ANYTHING creative you've done either in the name of fandom or otherwise.
COMMENTS ARE SCREENED, so no one else will see what you're reccing to me!!
What you will get in return:
Sometime in 2015, as early as I can get to each piece, you will get as thoughtful a comment as I can come up with. Please indicate whether you want me to send it as a private message (if you are uncomfortable with praise in public), otherwise I will assume I can leave my feedback where anyone will see. It will be praise because that's how I roll.
For your help, these are the fandoms I am most comfortable in (If I don't know the source of what you rec me, it means I'll probably get to it later than the others so I can at least wikipedia the fandom) right click and open image in new tab to see any of the images more clearly:( cut for length & many images )
(Here's the code if you want to do this in your journal!♥)
♥ Note: If you think I've already read it, feel free to either rec it again to ensure I actually do comment to tell you all the amazing things about it, or rec your personally-next-best thing. Also I say "3" but who can narrow these things down; if you can't, don't. ♥

Original:
"You know that bit in Little Women when Amy hurls Jo's manuscript into the fire in a fit of anger and jealousy?"
"I'm wrapping my mind around the idea that you've read Little Women," Albie says. "Give me a moment before you continue."
Dax rolls his eyes. "There's a book?" He winks at her when she shoots him a surprised look. "Relax, I'm not that much of a philistine."
Albie shoulder bumps him and regrets it, because apparently toting kegs up from the basement has made Dax into the solid kind of person that makes bumping into them painful. A fact he knows by the too-amused smirk her levels down at her.
Fanfic:
"Nonsense," Talia says. "We have a spare room. Next to Euphy's room, though, so be aware that she—"
"—snores like a herd of cats?" Derek finishes, deliberately using his dad's favorite phrase to describe his sister-in-law's snoring. "Yeah, I didn't miss that after—" He swallows back after she dies. "When I moved out," Derek finishes, badly.
"Oh, god, at least one of my children's gonna move out," Talia says. "That's good news. Laura's talking like she's never gonna leave."
Derek thinks about New York and feels sick.

Sunday Six Sentences [181]
Aug. 3rd, 2014 10:10 amEach Sunday, post six sentences from a writing project -- published, submitted, in progress, for your cat -- whatever.
Original:
"The notes," Dallan says, glimpsing down at the folder on her phone where she's taken pictures of them all. "Be mine. You're mine."
Price keeps folding up his clothes, studiously not looking in her direction.
"Clizyati already knows where you are, doesn't he?"
Price's jaw tenses visibly. "Seems like," he allows. Considering his usual loquacious word vomit, Price being quiet is blowing her mind more than the fact that the evil lord of the mirrorworld may not be trapped by the Yellow Emperor's spell anymore.
And if Clizyati is through, how long before the armies of the mirrorworld break through too?
Fanfic:
"I could manage to eat it all, I'm pretty sure," Cora says, eyeballing the spread of food determinedly.
"You'd go pop," Aunt Kharis says, grabbing Cora around the middle and pressing a lipstick-smeared kiss against Cora's cheek. Cora immediately shrieks and pulls away, rubbing furiously at her cheek. She's never been as tactile as the rest of the wolves.
"Be sure to thank Miguel," Eric calls out, still buzzing around the kitchen like a mini tornado, "he's very handy with a knife."
Talia, leading up the rear of the group coming out of the basement, looks proudly across at Derek. "Runs in the family," she says.

Two fic links for Sterek fans on my flist:
I wrote Not If You Were the Last Fake Boyfriend on Earth (8k) - where Derek needs a boyfriend for reasons and decides to let the pack help
and the amazingseraphina_snape wrote Revenge Fake Dating Is Totally A Thing (30k) for me - and it's amazing, Stiles ends up fake dating Derek to cover up lying to his dad, and things escalate and it's super cute. ♥

Original:
The elf and the boo stare at Ely like he's the answer to life, the universe and everything.
That sort of omnipotent power would certainly make Ely's job much easier. He rubs the bridge of his nose and resents his past-self for turning down the cushion Miranda offered him before the meeting began. The wooden seat that had seemed so delightful on first sight is now digging uncomfortably into Ely's thighs. My kingdom for a moment's reprieve, he thinks sadly, and slaps the negotiation table with both palms.
"You're both speaking utter rubbish," Ely says.
Fanfic:
"I'm kinda picturing that right now," Stiles says, tilting his head. "Hi, sir, ma'am, we're here from your local animal clinic to spray liquid in your face."
"I don't think that would entirely help Deaton get more business."
"Couldn't hurt — it's totally Deaton's milkshake that brings all the bored forty-something housewives to your boss's clinic."
"My boss is hot," Scott deadpans. "Plus it's also the only animal clinic in town and the next nearest one is half an hour's drive the other side of Beacon City."
"That reason too," Stiles allows.

Original:
"Post for you," Albie calls, sing-song, hovering at the threshold of the door. As usual she's treated to the sight of her father's broad shoulders, hunched over the desk, tense with stress. His gaze seems to be fixated on the computer monitor, but Albie's eyesight is eternally poor, and she can only make out the vague outlines of what looks like a map. She waits a few beats before raising her voice, "Dad."
Joshua Yates had never been particularly fast at anything, but the speed he shuts down the window he's looking at is so fast that Albie would suspect he was watching porn if a) she hadn't caught the glimpse of the countour lines of a map, and no map Albie's seen has been NSFW material and b) if she ever liked to think of sex and her parents in the same sentence, which no, she did not. He doesn't even bother properly turning to face her, even though his chair is one of those wheeled, rotatable office variety chairs.
Fanfic:
"You could have just said he was your boyfriend," Malia says. "I'm not that desperate."
Stiles isn't entirely to blame for the way the Jeep swerves a little bit. Lydia turns a snicker into a cough that she muffles into her hand.
"There's lots of other cute boys in Beacon Hills," Malia carries on. "Besides," she adds, eyeing Kira sideways, "I might be into girls now."

If you're not playing Beacon-Hills @ Livejournal at the moment, you are totally missing out. We're divided into Team Hunters (YAY HUNTERS) and Team Werewolves (BOO WOLVES) and the bracket stuff is only pantomime booing because everyone is awesome (even the wolves who incepted me into saying bacon hills, you know who you are). You get to write and play games in your team and make pretty art and look at other people's pretty art and it's just a lot of fun. ♥
Come join Team Hunter! Tell 'em mizzy2k sent you. ♥

Mal froze in the middle of reaching for a fork. She turned and contemplated the dessert, and contemplated Flip, and then she looked around at all the frozen courtiers and dancers and servants, and then she pointedly looked back at Flip. The message was vaguely unclear: it was either who was going to know? or Who is going to stop you?
Flip understood, his slow smile shy and brilliant like the sun, and Mal's chest quivered oddly when he put the cutlery down and reached his hand into the bowl of cream, fruit and meringue. It felt so odd that she had to look away for a moment and count her breaths, and when she managed to turn back, Flip had cream all over his face and was looking mournfully at his messy hand.
Fanfic:
Well, Derek did trip on the trail of troll slime, which might have made him stumble forwards, but he's fifty-three percent sure that it's Stiles' fault. Maybe fifty-two. He could concede that fifty-one was an acceptable number.
Stiles makes an ungainly sound as Derek sucks a vicious kiss into Stiles' jawline, before Derek lifts his head to chase that sound. Stiles kisses him back helplessly, clinging onto Derek's back like he'll fall over if he doesn't.
Well, it is Stiles. It's not impossible.

Sunday Six Sentences
Feb. 16th, 2014 12:21 pmEach Sunday, post six sentences from a writing project -- published, submitted, in progress, for your cat -- whatever.
Original:
"It's amazing what little power we have as teachers." Mr. Murphy sat down on the edge of his desk and looked at them all, a much more solemn expression on his face. "There's nothing I could do to stop those boys doing what they were doing -- their father owns half the town, I'd lose my job. But if it were other kids stopping him..."
"So you kept giving us DTs just to make sure we had uninterrupted planning time," Chase realised.
Mr. Murphy shrugged. "It's nothing you could ever prove."
Fanfic:
Stiles instantly drags Scott out in the dark to try and find it first. They live in England, so of course it's raining. Scott trudges along the pavement, getting his trainers muddy before they've even left the estate.
"Bloody hate the rain," Scott whines. "Couldn't we have driven?"
Stiles gives him a sad, soggy look. "We're sixteen, moron - we can't drive."

Sunday Six Sentences
Feb. 2nd, 2014 12:01 pmEach Sunday, post six sentences from a writing project -- published, submitted, in progress, for your cat -- whatever.
Original:
Mal held the sword out firmly, glaring at him down the length of the blade. "Are you in league with her?"
Flip edged a look at the frozen fairy before looking back at the point of her sword, dangerously near his heart. "Me in league with-- you've gotta be kidding me. And be careful with that thing – do you even know how to use it?"
"I knocked out a couple of goblins naked and unarmed," Mal pointed out. "Whose capacity for violence are we really questioning here?"
Fanfic:
The correlation between new teacher joining Beacon Hills High and new teacher being elbows-deep in the supernatural wasn't rocking a p value of one, but on a scale of as likely as Allison not having a weapon on her to if you date Derek Hale you're going to die, it was much closer to the latter.
Maybe it was on a probability par to if you date Lydia Martin or Derek Hale, you're most likely going to be a killer of some sort.
And yeah, Scott's been hitting his statistics homework a little hard recently, but only because it turns out having your lacrosse coach as your teacher isn't the free ride to an easy A that most people think. It's actually been interesting to see how probability can affect stock price calculations, but when he voiced that out loud, Stiles spat milk out of his nose and started cackling that Scott had been drinking the Kool-aid.
Anyway, while Scott's vaguely sure that the new science teacher Mr. Joblin is sketchy as hell (because who wears stretchy pants to teach in? seriously?), there's more of a potential mystery going on with the new English teacher Ms. Williams.
More specifically: Stiles' weird-ass reaction to her.
Bonus rec:
For all the writers on my flist (so many awesome writers y'all), Focus At Will. It's awesome - a music player with a 60 minute timer, and you can choose your preferred genre (I'm digging the Ambience one at the moment) and it really helps if you're trying to write for an hour uninterrupted to keep you in the zone. There's even a test mix for ADHD peeps which is interesting - I wrote really quickly to it, but that might be more of a rhythm thing!) Anyway, the cinematic mix is rad, and it works not just for writing, but if you're like me and sometimes waste hella time putting together a playlist to write to, this is quicker and helpful. ♥
(Bonus rec 2: NOWHERE BOYS.seraphina_snape wrote a great introductory piece about it for Small Fandom Fest. If you liked Sliders, but wanted to find more about the emotional repercussions of what would have happened had they just slid into one dimension and stayed there, or you like boys and demons and supernatural and disparate characters being forced to work together or you're like me and an addict to all the Australian kid shows of the 90s - Mission Top Secret, The Girl From Tomorrow - go give it a go! I've always wanted a live-action series where the characters each represent an elemental power, and this one is great! Bonus tip for watching: It takes a few episodes to get started, but they're only 25 minutes each. And you can watch them while doing other stuff. Normally I rec stuff which needs you to pay attention - like Leverage you can't really look away or you might miss something - but I happily did house chores while watching it and it was perfect. GIve it a go! You can find most of the episodes on YouTube. :D The fandom's currently tiny - but growing - and the characters are literally shippable in all combinations. Especially the boys but there's some het ships which are super cute too if you're into that. I'm kinda into all the boys/inanimate objects ship too which is better than it sounds.)

Like what if those three figures that came out of the Nemeton are the three women that died by it - Paige, Laura and Jennifer.
WHAT IF TO STOP JENNIFER THEY HAVE TO PUT ALL THREE BACK.

Each Sunday, post six sentences from a writing project -- published, submitted, in progress, for your cat -- whatever.
Original:
Belle loved jigsaws — she probably would have been hella amused at Alex practically becoming a walking jigsaw. That thought, out of nowhere and full formed, felt like a stab to the gut, and Alex hovered halfway between the torture device and her sister, completely unsure of which way to go.
Thankfully, Jess was kind of an awesome big sister, and had her back. Sort of. "Go shower, you reek," Jess declared, wrinkling her nose, curving her freckles into an alien constellation.
"Nice to see you too," Alex said, but she headed nimbly for the ensuite shower room, grabbing a towel from the heated rack and a change of clothes before slamming the door behind her.
Fanfic:
"Everyone's a comedian."
"Yeah, well, you weren't around. I had to learn to fill the silences somehow."
Stiles lets out a huff. "Are you saying Boyd's natural talkativeness wasn't enough to compensate?"
"Boyd," Erica says, "has said exactly six words to me since he got here this morning."
"And they were?"
"Off to find the pool, babe," Erica says, mimicking Boyd's low drawl.

I've officially read everything on my kobo now (not that there was too much on there), so please throw any fic recs my way. \o/
I started to try and fill it up myself, and in cruising some of my favourite tags, discovered this lovely gem:
Not gonna lie, I feel super accomplished. I am the Queen of Dramatic Irony. How often does one person with two different identities get the top two results in a search for identity porn? NOT OFTEN ENOUGH, FLIST. NOT OFTEN ENOUGH.
#
Speaking of fic, I posted my newest big bang yesterday, so for the Teen Wolf/Sterek fans on my flist, here's the info. It's a bit long, longer than it was supposed to be, so maybe don't start it late at night if you do wanna read it. :D
Title: The Nightmare of my Choice
Author:
Mirrorkill
Artist:puckboum
Type: Slash. Thriller.
Word Count: ~100k
Rating: Mature
Characters/Pairings: Stiles, Derek/Stiles
Warnings: M for violence, not sexytimes! Ghosts, canon-level violence, minor surgery reference, allusions to euthanasia and non-con (but not explicitly in-text), minor character death.
Fic Summary:
Link to art master post: LJ* (beware spoilers for the fic inside)
Totes check out the art - I had to embed the still versions in the main fic, for people who can't handle gifs, but it's ANIMATED. ♥ Puckboum is awesomepants.
I'm currently still drowning in fic deadlines. Once Sterek BB and Leverage RBB have passed, I might be able to breathe a little, but until then... Best not to try and persuade me to add anything else to my deadline list. I MIGHT CRY AT YOU. And considering I have a cold, that wouldn't be pretty. ♥

Fic Summary:
“... it was written I should be loyal to the nightmare of my choice.”
Rogue werewolves and incubi and ghosts, oh my!: Life in Beacon Hills continues to be the epitome of weird.
Especially for emissary-in-training Stiles, who's being literally haunted by a parade of Beacon Hills' deceased, who are trying to compel him to embrace the darkness in his heart. His only source of comfort is when he's writing to an emotionally constipated Beta werewolf. When Derek Hale is your anchor to sanity? Yeah, weird might be an underestimation.
Stiles is well suited to the path of an emissary; in fact, something important about him has already been overlooked. Something that could have deadly consequences both for him, and for everyone else...
