Happy Fun Male Character Fic Request Week!

[seventhe]

Note: this entry is fandom-only.

I'm probably going to hate myself for this, but - whatever.

So I've realized that I only mostly write female characters. This is probably because I like them best. However, I've decided that I need a bit of practice writing male characters, since writing them (other than Irvine, apparently) kind of scares me. So! This is where I hire other rabid fannits to present me with plotbunnies, plz.

You:
Comment with a request. I write Final Fantasy fic based on any games from IV - X2. (Keep in mind, my fellow FFVII-girls, that my knowledge of BC/DoC/anything that's not game or AC is shaky at best.) Your request has to have a dude in it because this is the whole point. I will take a character or a pairing (and technically, the pairing can be hetero or homo, your choice). I will also take a setting, or a situation, or some other kind of prompt. I am not picky. I am asking for fun things. You can make as many requests as you want, really. Um, start with two?

I:
will write you a (probably) 200-500 word ficlet based on your prompts. (Unless my brains run away with me, in which case you will get a novelette and can feel free to beat me with it.) This will be done this week in the order that they are submitted. I have a fairly boring week ahead of me, so this should be fun.

Even though they're short ficlets, I'd still appreciate hearing about it if I get any male mannerisms/characterization/etc right or wrong. The whole point of this thing is for my own good - to help me become more comfortable with guyspeak.

So, c'mon. Somebody give me something.

WHEE. Request. I still owe you Turkfic. o_o Man, now that I'm reminded I'm going to actually write it. I think. I hope. I WILL. XD Expect it soon.

Um, hmm. How abooout.... Kain and Cecil, with one or the other wanting a relationship and the other totally actually straight and lusting after Rosa? XD:

And Edgar!fic. It should involve a pear, a headstand (not necessarily literally), and his cape. >.>

Whee!

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

OMG that is prime for humour. (I actually have a fic from last year's Christmas-request for xerne in which Rydia had convinced Cecil that kain was in love with him and hilarity ensued. Man, I should dig that up.)

I love you for requesting FFIV and FFVI!!!

...Sadly now that I re-read that fisrt request I'm not at all sure why my initial thought was "humour". I'm now seeing a tragic love triangle of tragically huge proportions.

Mrrr....I have the same problem, except I tend to write guys. >.> Silly Quela.

And my suggestion (Request? What's a request?) is Laguna, Kiros, and Ward. In a bar. But not the one with Julia in it.

That's something to work off, right? ...Hopefully?

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I LOVE LAGUNA. And Laguna, Kiros, and Ward are already building little scenes in my head. Yey.

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

I was going to request some Laguna cause I love me some Laguna, but in the act of being fair, how about an Auron-centric ficlet? (adding Rikku in will be your choice :P) Maybe something set in the Calm Lands?

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

(YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE RIKKU. XD!)

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

LoL I KNOW and your Rikku voice is amazing so I sort of hope you do add because it's SO GOOD.

Cecil/Rosa awkward first-time smut coming to an ff_smutathon near you very soon!

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

You know Rikku will wander her way in there now that you have invited her.

And OMGSMUT! Squee.

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

I just need to sit here and crank it out properly without getting distracted by it and giggling.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I was so bad when I was writing that Rydia/Edge. Somebody would walk into my lab and I'd be all "MINIMIZE MINIMIZE ohgodmyfaceisred"

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

LOL. Okay question- I don't think I want to use the word cock. Hahaha is penis acceptable? Ah damn I dunno, I'm going to have to send it to you to beta later lol, it's nearing completion now.

[nadleeh]

Hmm...X-2 you say? How about something Nooj-Gippal-Baralai(-Paine?)-centric? There aren't enough goodfics out there for them :3

(Damn, this reminds me...I think I finished all of one of those Christmasfics...GEH. Maybe they can be presents for next year. >.>)

HAHAHA. No, I don't think either Cecil or Rosa would use that word. HEE!

Um. *thinks of alternatives while waiting to beta* I usually just ... uh ... flail a little and use "hardness" or "length" or something really, really vague.

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

HAHA I know that was my problem I was like I CAN'T USE THAT WORD IN A CECIL/ROSA!!!

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

PS BTW sending to beta cause it's DONE!!

[darknitedestiny.livejournal.com]

I...damn. You're going to be very busy.

Um...ShadowxRelm? Shadow POV. Or however you want to do it. I'll just be grateful if you write it. [grin]

Cloud/Barret. Your theme - this page (http://www.blifaloo.com/info/lies.php).

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Oh, I agree ... if only I can do them justice. :P

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

You? I love for the FFVI request.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

...That page should not have filled my head with plotbunnies, no way.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Although OH GOD my brain is producing hilarious Cecil/Rosa conversations about barn fowl using the word "cock" with Kain at the door listening in and OMGing.

[katmillia.livejournal.com]

Don't give me any more plotbunnies!!! LOL

[fireholly.livejournal.com]

I Googled 'useless information' because I was looking for a random and useless factoid, but everything was too specific, and eventually I managed to linksurf there.

I think it's pretty fascinating, as are the spammy comments, which are an education in human stupidity. Please don't write anything based on the spammy comments.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I didn't even read the spammy comments! Entertainment for the afternoon.
