I need help from my lovely flist. I already know a few of your are signing up for the 2nd round at tardis_bigbang and some crazy part of my brain has also decided that this is a good idea, mainly because I don't really have a lot of creative writing on my course at the moment and I thought this would fill my writing criteria for the next few weeks ( Read more... )

fandom: torchwood, writing: fanfic

Personally, I prefer the first one, I just think you'll be better at writing that one.

I have one plot bunny which I fear I may never get to write. You can take a stab if you want. You know the book Trace Memory? Well, ever since I read it all I can think of is 'What would happen if Lisa - a pre Ianto but currently at TW Lisa - went forward in time to Cardiff. I have random little bits in my head but that's it.

You've already heard about the first one before!! I've edited the second fic idea slightly but I still think I'll end up going with the first idea.... I've already got a scene in mind where Ianto & Rhys try to escape and Ianto gets shot in the leg and yeah I won't ruin it for you... 'cause I will probably write this fic.

Oh that's an interesting plot bunny... but it's not sparking anything in my brain I'm afraid though hun.

I adore the first one, full stop.

But I also like the second one, up until she gets the job. I think that the battling over grief to safe a life is very fitting for a torchwood fic but ... I dunno.

You could pull them both off though.

I've changed the second one after your suggestion... there's two choices now... either she gets the job... blah blah blah... or she doesn't get the job because she sees all the destruction that lies in the wake of Torchwood and doesn't want to be a part of that. Jack lets her walk away with her memories intact though, mainly because Ianto bullies him into it. (insert Lisa reminiscing moment). I dunno, I still feel like I'm swaying more towards the Rhys & Ianto centric one...

And don't encourage me to write both. My competitive streak will kick in and then I'll never do any college work...

Then I'm going with the Ianto and Rhys centric one. It'd have more... I dunno... life to it?

Although I like the idea of this doctor woman I think that the former will be better.

And I'm not even going to suggest writing both! I'm having trouble with 14 lines at the moment (not like I'll be getting the deadline anytimg soon however...)

I think it's going to be the Ianto & Rhys one - the people have spoken. And I dunno... both would have a sufficient amount of drama in them but I've been thinking about the first fic for most of today and I've got scenes bubbling out my ears.

Yeah I've been busy angsting over poetry all week for a magazine. I'm shying away from words for a while I feel.

You mean combine the two?! Never thought of that... eh... I dunno if that would work... *ponders*

No mean I can't pick between the two :P

Oh ok... well my brain has now combined the two in a weird sort of twisted hash... *unfankles it* And I'm not writing both - not at the same time anyway. Although I say that now... you know what I'm like though...

Awww bless you. And thanks for the input - I think Ianto and Rhys are going to win.

Roger Wilco! That means yes btw... too much gatorade. It's worse than Irn Bru for making you hyper. I still miss the Bru tho... *sighs*

And demand eh? I suppose I'll have to write it now...
