I'm still plugging away at longfic bingo, even though the comm seems dead, but you guys, longfic takes so long. But I like their prompt list, and I like kinkmeme style prompts, so I made myself a bingo card, and if anyone is up for this game:

You prompt/request according to a bingo box, I write a prompt fic style fic. I'll x-post to tumblr, but anon is on here. Wild card is free-for-prompter, go nuts.


Filled:

A/B/O:
Clint/Logan, On the Run

D/s:
Bucky/Clint

Fantasy Creature:
Bucky & Clint

Fuck or Die:
Clint/Tony

Gunshot Wound:
Clint & Steve

On the Run:
Clint/Tony
Clint/Logan, A/B/O

Torture:
Clint/Steve

Vampires:
Clint/Steve

Wing!fic:
Bruce & Clint

For the prompt:

So, post-movie, whenever Loki gets bored with his imprisonment, he can calmly and easily pay a little visit to Clint's mind and Dom the fuck out of him. For Clint, these sessions take the form of very realistic, vivid, dreams/vision type things. Usually while he is asleep, but occasionally Loki will pop up while he is wide awake (it is 'all in Clint's head' so even if others are present while Loki is taunting him, whispering to him, no one else can see him).

The entirety of SHIELD, just about, had looked into Clint's head and determined that Loki was gone. That Natasha's applied blunt force trauma had been enough, and that Clint was safe, and not a security risk, and in the

Either the entirety of SHIELD was wrong, or Clint is losing his mind.

Content: Noncon, D/s, Mental control and games--this is a bad things happen fic. For the rest of the content tags, please check the AO3 fic header and notes.

I had the weirdest reality show themed dream last, where I was in some kind of cookoff competition that seemed to be a mash-up of Masterchef and ANTM, with all the cooking intensity of Maasterchef, but where everyone on my team was more interested in dramatic in-fighting and standing around attractively while I frantically tried to make our weird edible garden theme display thing work and yelled at everyone about "The cheese things! The cheese thing are going to burn! Somebody put on more cheese things"

And then we lost because of the cheese things being too cheesy. There is no such thing, weirdly out of place Tim Gunn character! Get out of my cooking dream.

And then I woke up furious and with one arm totally asleep and I hadn't even been lying on it.

I feel like I need to explain this fic.

So, since I've been talking about using the MCU as a way to pare down comics canon, here's a fic that I abandoned on my hard drive after realizing that the visuals don't work. As in, I doubt Clint's hairstyle in this would work on the actor, but if you were drawing Clint, or imagining some of the comics visuals, it could.

After realizing that, and deciding to just shelve it because I didn't want anyone to think my sense of design or something is that bad (lol), I kind of wrote from the hip and with a so whatever attitude, so this fic is pretty weird.

I'm marking it MCU here anyway, because I don't know what else to, but this is an example of the kind of canon/imagery clash I mean, and that I try to avoid in things that I put on the AO3.

Also, I realized it's long enough to fill one of my longfic bingo squares.

Marriage of Convenience: [Marvel Cinematic Universe] untitled Thor/Clint fic --5,427 words

One year, Earth-time, after taking over Loki's claim on Clint, Thor is back, Clint is different in ways that are odd and disturbing, and Tony is determined to figure out exactly what's going on between him and Thor, because he's not sure he likes what things are looking like.

This fic includes: Captivity, slavefic themes, D/s undertones, suspicions of non-con, suspicions of abuse, hints of dark stuff happening off screen, hints of off-screen D/s, but in the end everything turns out to be be mostly okay. It's not dark!Thor fic. Really not.

Also, no one is actually married. I may or may not be interpreting those prompt squares with increasing looseness.

I've been thinking of doing a fancomic for a while, but I don't know if I have the drawing chops or consistency. Also, I, like. Don't want to draw cars and buildings. :P

Nothing's loading except youtube, so I'm finally watching the earlier half of due South. I'm on episode four, and wow. It's really different, at least so far. It seems less cracky, and the Ray-Fraser relationship is almost opposite, somehow? Like with RayK, I always felt like Fraser was the one who's got his shit together, and is the stabilizing influence and RayK kind of a mess, but with RayV it feels like Fraser's out of place, a little naive, and RayV is the one who kind of gets the world. Or at least, understands the environment, and seems to be the one who's exasperatedly tolerant of Fraser's weirdness.

It's really interesting. I wish I'd been in this fandom for its meta heyday.



Also, I really like Fraser's brown uniform. I don't think we see it as much in the RayK half of the show.

Randomly googling around, I found a podcast talking to Mike Mignola about Hellboy in Hell. I don't think I've ever heard Mignola interviewed, but oh man, he's the best.

"Basically, I killed him off because in hell I don't have to draw cars."
"Partly, it's laziness because I only want to draw what I want to draw, but also it's fear of drawing things that are hard to draw."
"That story came about because I had drawn this page and then realized I had no idea what was going on."
"Drawing other people's writing is easy. You just draw a head and leave a lot of room around it for big speech bubbles."

:D If I wasn't a fan already, this would have done it.

My internet is down again, (Well. It's up and down.) but one of the things I got for Christmas is a mobile wifi modem. It's pretty sweet. I'm still on the started package, so my daily data allowance isn't super. I haven't hit it yet so far, so it's not too tiny, but I don't want to risk video or anything data heavy like my tumblr dash.

But I got it working on my laptop now, and it's pretty sweet. Reasonably fast too, for DW, checking my tumblr activity page, and AO3.

I love having a backup! And it's small and cute and way better than the usb modem I had years ago.

I'm working on a story that's a prequel, and am having trouble coming up with an overarching plot, even though I think the setting and world problems of that part of canon are interesting and unique. I want to design out almost entirely the part of the story that takes place and that the canon actually covers, but it's still giving me what I call "Caprica problems." Which are,

1. The earlier events aren't as dramatic or ultimately important as the ones covered in the canon proper. In the case of the BSG--although I'm not writing BSG--mythos, the First Cylon War and surrounding events aren't as dramatic as the fleet or survivors, and in any case, we know any successes are going to prove empty, because we know it's not really over and the war not really won.

Knowing what comes later drains the sense of stakes.

2. Kind of picks up from part of one--the canon set for earlier events are designed to serve the story canon is actually telling, not their own. So the highs and lows are already set-up to not compete with the drama of the proper story, and the events and world building may not hang together for their own sake. You didn't need a cohesive history, for example, for Admiral Adama. You just needed enough to make Apollo feel overshadowed and tortured by duty, and enough to give the world a sense of history. The bits you see might not have a good arc once you start stringing them together, and might not be easy to build on, but either way you're constrained by the precedent.

3. The story has already been told in asides, flashbacks, character conversations, and via the canon proper--we know how the long game ends. Any important questions have already been answered by virtue of us knowing the outcome of the story that happens later.

You have to come up with new, entirely different questions to ask. Otherwise its just filling in spaces that most of the time were intentional "negative space" (story wise) anyway. That is, "seduced by the dark side" is scary and romantic when that suggestion is all you know. The play-by-play just kills the mystery.

Anyway. All of these are kicking my ass. Plus the canon for the prequel events contradicts itself pretty blatantly in parts, so that's a help, show. It really is.

I can figure out how to write a story, and I can figure out how to translate a script into storyboards or panel layouts, but I cannot for the fuck of me work out how to write a story to convert into panel layouts.

By which I man, how do you comic script. Are you supposed to see it as text in your head, or as drawn pages?
