Confessions of A Grown Up Fan Fic Writer
I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO TELL YOU....
Baw, I'm a sheep.
I also have a confession to make. A fandom confession, not the naughty sexy fun kind. ;)
I have a terrible weakness for band AUs. I don't know why, I can't explain what my fascination is, I just love fic or art involving characters as musicians. I know that these are usually terribly done, and they make no sense, and in most of my fandoms it's a ridiculously stupid idea, but the fact remains.
I don't generally go reading these fics, and I'd never write oneto post online, but I liked thinking about who would be in a band together, what sort of music they'd write, would they be famous, what would their albums look like?
I guess it's my 'guilty pleasure' scenario, or something. We all have them.
There was also a time I really dug vampire AUs. I've moved beyond that stage, but in the interest of full disclosure, I felt it bore mentioning.
I was up before 10 AM today. I'm going to shoot for that every morning, if possible. I'm very much trying to adopt an 'early to bed, early to rise' pattern - which is why I seem to drop off the face of the earth around 7 or 8 my time. (Though last night it's because I was cooking then eating dinner, then beginning my pre-bed routine.)
I'm starting to get new calluses in my hand from my new cane. It sits just a little bit differently in my hand then the old one.

I never really got this, this fandom love of band!au. And then I read one. And it was fantastic, and now I fear I may be hooked. Eeep.

Ok, now I need to find both of those. Holy. Shit.

No.
There is one fic where Ed is a mermaid stripper. Or a stripping mermaid, whatever the proper term is.
no subject
Because honestly, the brain-breakage of mermaid stripping is so beautiful, I must have it. It's really not like I need my brain anyway.

The band ones...any preference? I remember one with vampire!rock star!Envy....

The Little Meralchemist (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2878074/1/). I shit you not.

I still want to write the Pyramid Head x Maria one.
Though high school AUs may never be good, unless there are good ones I haven't read.
ETA: Actually now that I remember someone was working on one I didn't think was bad. But they did, so they never finished it.
no subject
do it!
I sometimes like to indulge in ridiculous AUs, just for fluff reading. Now I'm kind of tempted to go looking....

In other words, I FINALLY replied. >.>
