trope bingo card

[disarm_d]

I was tricked into signing up for Trope Bingo by fitofpique because she was like "LOOK AT MY CARD, IT'S AWESOME, DO THIS!" and I was like, "oooh, you got drunk!fic. I want to write drunk!fic. I will sign up immediately."

In hindsight, every single story I write is drunk!fic, that is not at all the same as trope bingo, I do have some regrets.

I laughed out loud reading your comments on this. :D But it is kind of unfair to get two kidfic prompts if you don't want/like them. (also I don't get this bingo thing, what are you supposed to do? Get five connecting prompts written? *is ignorant*)

[disarm_d]

Yeah, you have to write five that are connected, like filling the squares in normal bingo before you're allowed to shout out BINGO!

Except real bingo doesn't have endless surprisingly accidental children, so I guess it's got that going for it, >:(

What about the diagonal from top left to bottom right? HANDCUFFS and ROAD TRIPS and CELEBRATORY KISSES and also two things that are of your choice!

[disarm_d]

Well THAT'S a strong possibility. And 2 of three are freebe's so it's a lot like cheating, >:)

[daisysusan]

And you could TOTALLY do drunk!fic for the free space!

[disarm_d]

hahaha, SOLVES EVERYTHING. However I only realized belatedly that drunk!fic as a trope is different than just getting everyone drunk all the time as the general course of your stories. So I'm medium on that.

I didn't even consider that I had to be worried about au:all human!!! I was like I'LL DRIVE DRUNK FIC AND MAYBE SOMEONE WILL SECRETLY BE A VIRGIN AND IT WILL BE G8!!! I was so misguided.

That's trueeeeeeee. And I could just spend a lot of time staring at pictures where it looks like they belong in something other than a boyband.

IGNORE IGNORE INDEED! That usually works quite well with insuring there is never an accidental secret baby.

I still think you should write a story where 1D are actually robots, but one day they wake up and they're all humans. And then they have a band meeting, where they're like, "Woah! Our programming was just terrible! Like whoever was in charge of that was seriously incompetent! How did anyone ever buy it? People don't act like that or do any of that stuff! We were doing basically everything wrong! How did no one notice we were so weird?" And so they decide to start acting super normal and human! And then everyone gets suspicious and confused and accuses them of being musical robot slaves created by the record company!

In conclusion, subvert all the tropes!

[disarm_d]

WHOA, OUR PROGRAMING WAS JUST TERRIBLE WHY DID WE THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO WHISPER BY SMUSHING OUR MOUTHS TOGETHER AND GET ALL OF THESE SILLY TATTOOS ABOUT OUR SQUISHY ROBOTIC BOYBAND EMOTIONS?

Taraaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I am actually dying. Like, I read this in the morning and I was like AHAHHAHAHA OMG, and then now I'm rereading it AND IT'S EVEN FUNNIER.

Can you just write it for me, maybe??

[proteinscollide]

Lololol what a dilemma. :) I was going to suggest the diagonal as a solution, if that's allowed.

But I'm also reaaaaally taken with the au: human story suggested in the comment above because YES, subvert all the tropes!

[disarm_d]

It's pretty challenging to be me, :( Just this thing that I have noticed.

I MEAN, if I do have to do au:human, that is undoubtedly what I would have to write. I'm still laughing over that. OUR PROGRAMMING WAS TERRIBLE WHY DID NO ONE NOTICE dyinggggggg.
