Tumblr AU Drabbles!

Sep 10, 2012 01:53

I did a bunch of these drabble prompts on Tumblr tonight, so I thought I'd consolidate them all in one place on my LJ. They were all written very quickly, so I apologize for the varying degrees of quality. ;) Hope y'all enjoy!

Also, fun fact: there is a Joffrey Ballet School in Manhattan!

Thank you, my love! I was feeling so uninspired this week, and this meme was just what I needed to get the gears grinding a bit. It was tons of fun.

Also, fun fact: there is a Joffrey Ballet School in Manhattan!

I DID know that! I was watching "Dance Moms" on Lifetime (trashy reality TV at its best!) with my sister (who doesn't read ASOIAF or watch GOT), and there was an episode where the dancers were competing for a spot in the Joffrey Ballet summer program, and I just sat there on the couch giggling to myself every time they said "Joffrey" and my sister looked at me like I was crazy. SO BASICALLY, THE ASOIAF/BALLET AU IS MEANT TO BE.

THESE ARE ALL GLORIOUS, I LOVE THEM. My favorites are the French revolution and ancient Egypt ones--so fleshed-out and full and FULL OF POSSIBILITIES! And the characters just fit seamlessly into those worlds. Also I just love Marie Antoinette!Cersei eating tiny cakes, it is basically the greatest thing ever.

Thank you, bb!!!! Seriously, thank God for this meme; I was having no luck writing anything this week, and this was such a good palate-cleanser. I may need to write more in some of these universes (esp. the French revolution one- that was my favorite, too!).

I hope you had fun writing your prompt fics (TRANSLATION: I HOPE YOU HAD ENOUGH FUN TO CONTINUE WITH THE BRILLLLLLLIANT POLYGAMY AU FIC YES PLEASE?)!

xoxo!

I WANT TO WRITE IT SO BAD because it is SO WEIRD and I love it. Seriously, that prompt was brilliant. Did you see the Big Love episode where Nikki and Bill get caught having sex when it's ZOMG NOT HER NIGHT and the shit hits the fan? Margaery would totally be that girl. My problem is that I just started grad school and am afraid that I'll never have time for fanfic EVER AGAIN (probably not true, haha), but it's definitely being added to my list of things to write, and I really, really hope I get to it!

And uh, if you wrote more of the French revolution one, I would probably DIE OF LOVE. Have you seen Les Adieux à la Reine, or at least the trailer (which is all I've seen)? IT IS MAGNIFICENT, and it doesn't help that Diane Kruger could be Cersei. Ugghhhh *flailing* WANT.

YESSSSS OMG AND THEN MARGENE RAN AND HID UNDER HER COUNTERTOP AND CRIED IN THE FETAL POSITION. TELL ME THAT SANSA WOULDN'T DO EXACTLY. THAT.

Ooh, grad school! Congrats, bb! What are you studying?

I DID see that trailer, and it is all kinds of gorgeous. And I totally agree- as much as I like Lena, Diane Kruger LOOKS like the Cersei I have in my head.
