Jack?  Please shut up.  You're supposed to be in a tale of intrigue and aliens, not having tea with a giggling four year old.  Remember the mystery?  The reason this whole stupid story is being written in the first place?  Do you think you can address that part sometime this century?

Plot=hard.  Tea and crumpets=fun.  *sigh*

Well... That. You should maybe change that *nods* I love that icon. I wish I could come up with ideas like that :D

Nope, definitely not. I tried plotting once or twice, but when I do, I lose interest in the fic much quicker and it's not as much fun and... so on.

I'm going to add more Jack ones, once it's safe to go looking for them again (after S2 has started)

I agree- if you have vague, general plot ideas=fun, but detailed plot points=boring

More Jack icons are always a good thing, no matter at what time :D But I can understand if you don't want to look at the moment.

Yeah. Exactly my point.

I think that's why crack!fic appeals to me so much, and writing drabbles. No plot neccessary

I like emotional plot... If you can call that plot. Emotional developement. Whatever. That stuff with emotions. I'm not very good with actual, proper plot.

but emotional development is good too, and plotworthy (which I'm not sure is a word, but oh well)

emotional development is fun. and i like playing with the characters and see how they work in an AU setting or when faced with something unusual (e.g. mpreg) and that sort of thing
