Cliches are my Kryptonite

[rivkat]

I was looking at morgandawn’s fan fiction tropes and my first thought was, well, I haven’t done all of them. Like, I haven’t done amnesia. And then I thought: no, actually. Twice is almost exactly like never, right? I’m pretty sure I never had Mulder & Scully bake cookies, though they did do home maintenance (gotta patch those bullet holes somehow). And now that I think about it, I did have Clark bake cookies for Lex. He was bodyswapped with Lex at the time. Is that a Double Fandom Word Score?

Anyway, I could still use some prompts for Eight Crazy Nights, getting closer than ever. If you want to suggest cliches, I’m obviously game. And, um, if someone wanted to beta an XF story, I wouldn’t say no. Fair warning: this story is mostly so old that the filename is in all caps, because I apparently began it on a computer that didn’t even use Windows. But by God I was asked for a sequel to Deny Nothing and there it was on my computer, so I’m going to give it the college (or, more accurately, law school) try.

It is excellent! Now on to Part 2, with the pining!

Sorry! I was just afraid you might end it there, in a neat little horror story fashion. I do not want a neat little horror story. I want PINING and SUFFERING and a HAPPY ENDING, although given my own complete inability to do happy endings, I never insist on them.

Well, you know my general theory on the extent to which SamnDean can constitute a happy ending, but within that definitional constraint I can definitely deliver, possibly with less suffering than pining because Dean's going to be amnesiac through the bulk of the story.

But since your theory on the extent to which Sam/Dean can constitute a happy ending grants them more happiness than my theory on the extent to which etc., it works out pretty well for me.
