It's that time of year again, karaokegal's Third Annual “Come As You’re Not” fanfic costume party.  

Last year I came up with (at the time) terribly atypical costume of a crossover.  It was something I'd never done before and wound up morphing into a 12k epic, a length I've only reached once since (for my bigbang).  But this year, I'm clueless.  Crossovers have become commonplace for me, as have writing in different fandoms other than TW/DW.  I've written dark, slash, AU, even touched on het with a few drabbles.

So, what am I not?  HELP!!!!

Or MST something that you really don't like if you can't bring yourself to write something you just *don't* do. That's what I'm thinking of doing as over the years I've pretty much written everything, even if it wasn't under this name and isn't on LJ. The only thing I've never done is RP slash; I've done RP fic though so I'm not sure if it counts and like I was telling jades, writing any of my other squicks would make it unsafe for a general community! Plus I'd have to research and as they're squicks I'd rather not.

Maybe we should make a list of things that we *don't* associate with you at least some of the time and you could picks something. Actually, that isn't a bad idea. Maybe we could do it as an flist thing?

I'd love a list of things you don't think I write.

Some I couldn't write though, if you know what I mean. RP in general (let alone slash) just squicks me. Full, detailed sex scenes of any nature come out like crap. And D/s comes out childish. These sorts of things wouldn't be unsafe for LJ necessarily, but not something I'd be proud of.

What do you mean by MST? Like MST3K sporking of a fic?

[aeron-lanart.livejournal.com]

Yup.

That's the only way I could bring myself to write something that really isn't me.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

so you'd write an atypical fic and then spork it?

[aeron-lanart.livejournal.com]

Something like that.

Or do a piss-take of some of the more purple prose that's out there (done to a T by Robin in her Trek Fic Rampant Love Prongs (http://www.strangefits.com/robin/voy.html) scroll down the page to get to the fic).

I have lots of other stuff to be writing first though, so I might not bother.

oh god, I could never write that!

I dunno, last year's party really got a good story from me, but this year I'm all nervous! it is a ways away though
