Ask me a fandom-related question in the comments. Ask me two, three, four, five questions, go nuts, tbh. I'll talk about fandom stuff, character stuff, ship stuff, give recs, talk about fic writing, livejournal, tumblr, memes, icons, music, movies, books, kinks, whatever. Questions can be as wacky as you want. Whatever you want. Dream big, dream strange.

From a shipping point of view, I want to be sold on Oliver being into Felicity. If that is not possible, I'd like Felicity to have a really nice romantic plot with someone else (who is 100% hot).

The LBD cast (in character) as superheroes - or villains.
How would that work? Who would be the leader? What powers would they have? Names?
Would they be open about their alter egos or have a secret identity?

Meanwhile, Wick-the-Dick shows up and insinuates himself into the girls' everyday lives. Lizzie and Jane are too busy to waste their time on sleazy guys (especially with the promise of clandestine rooftop rendezvous in Lizzie's future), leaving GW disgruntled and pouty that no one is paying him the attention he feels he deserves, so he goes after Lydia in retaliation, thinking she'll be an easy conquest.
However, Lydia may seem like a flake, but she's stronger than anyone gives her credit for. She's always been the baby of the team and while she has her own ability, she's never quite figured out how to use it effectively, so she's struggling to reach her potential and resents her sisters a little because of that. GW comes along and is surprised to find that she's more of a challenge than he bargained for, so he slowly uses his powers to subvert her to his will. At home, everyone is so busy with their own lives that no one seems to notice the changes in her, until she goes missing.
After that there's a whole scramble to find her, with the assistance of the newly unmasked Darcy, and when they do catch up to them, Lydia appears to be completely under GW's control. Lizzie and Jane turn the tables on him by using their sisterly bond to remind Lydia how much they value her and empathically override the coercion, at which point Lydia kills the dastardly Wickham, reclaiming her own power. Sisterhood is reaffirmed, Lydia and Jane leave, and Lizzie and Darcy finally come clean about everything and engage in naughty things on the rooftop.
The End
no subject
I love it. Also, I feel like the updated version of the 1st proposal scene in this would be something like, Darcy figures out that that Lizzie is Lizzie, while she still hasn’t made the link between Darcy and his superhero cover, so Darcy basically asks a leading question that leads to Lizzie running down the list of Darcy’s faults, and they start fighting, and Darcy breaks his cover, and they leave that conversation with their respective world-views shaken.
Lizzie and Darcy finally come clean about everything and engage in naughty things on the rooftop.
I am always down for this.

Perhaps castration would suffice as an alternative option. Or, would falling off the rooftop (maybe with a little help) and ending up paralysed be too cliché?
Also, in the lead up to the climax, it could follow the original story, where Lizzie tells Darcy that Wickham has Lydia, and when he leaves she thinks that he's walked out of her life forever, but he really uses his knowledge of GW's sordid habits to locate Lydia, who refuses to leave with him, at which point he would go to Lizzie and Jane.
But, an interesting twist could be that due to his stuffy and formal way of speech, when Darcy finds Lydia his secret identity is revealed, making her the only person ever to see through his disguise.

Who is your favorite/most well done supervillain?
no subject
Though, to be fair, I naturally gravitate towards tricksters and antiheroes, and I read a lot of Norse myths when I was a kid.
He's so delightfully messed up; tragic, but he has fun with it.
And he's clever. That's always a plus.

Nothing like a good quipper. Loki's line when Tony asks if he's afraid of lighting ("I'm not overly fond of what comes after.") is probably my favorite line of his.

And Amanda Tapping would be interesting as Iron Man, though I'm not sure how she'd manage Tony's Stark.
Summer Glau could be Hawkeye.
Gina Torres would make a great female Nick Fury.
I don't think I've really thought this one through.
no subject
She would.
Summer Glau could be Hawkeye.
But she's so tiny! I would want someone with shoulders for that role.
And Amanda Tapping would be interesting as Iron Man, though I'm not sure how she'd manage Tony's Stark.
Honestly, I don't think she'd have the charisma for Tony Stark. I'd like to see Samantha Ferris read for that role. Maggie Q might also be a possibility.

Pre-WWII Europe
Well-written female protagonist
Well-written female villain
Spies
Steampunk
Archaeology
Travel using many different methods of transportation
And a twist - no tragic back story (for main characters, at least) - villains must be bad for other reasons, like they enjoy being evil sadists and embrace that part of their natures

*cackles gleefully* Oh, I so want to read a story with a character called Wyoming Smith. Did she used to have a cat named Wyoming and is her given name really Henrietta?
I think Whatever is spelled M-a-c-G-u-f-f-i-n.
That's a great story. When are you going to write it?
no subject
Of course!

Just roll with it. That was the first thing that came into my head.
How did Stephanie lose her virginity and what is her pov on the guys she used to "date"?
no subject
and she wanted to get to the part where it felt good, where she could be right there with another person and not quite feel so alone. so she keeps seeing these guys who don't really see her when she's there with them and the sex gets better, sure, but she still feels so so alone.
Oh, poor baby girl.
now, she jokingly refers to this point in her life when asked in couched terms, as a "rebellious phase", but privately she can only be grateful that she no longer feels so lost within her own skin.
Yeah, she'd totally sugarcoat it if she was talking to people about it.

Cass is going to initially be wary of Natasha, because Natasha lies with her entire body, but then they are going to bond over being raised as a weapon and then practice ballet together. (Natasha is going to find Cass’s refusal to kill adorably naïve.)
Everyone loves Stephanie Brown, because how could you not love Stephanie Brown?
Darcy Lewis and Stephanie get along like a house on fire; they go out to tear up the town together and probably drag Jason along.
If anyone is having sex, it would be a Darcy and Stephanie and Jason threesome. (It was Darcy’s idea.)
Those are my thoughts. Anything to add?
no subject
But please, please, please, tell me more about Jason not being into threesomes, because that is LITERALLY THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER HEARD ANYONE (BESIDES ME) EXPRESS THE OPINION THAT A CHARACTER WOULDN’T BE INTO A THREESOME, FULL STOP. (And honestly, I *personally* don’t find threesomes as sexy as most of fandom does, so I can’t always be sure my own opinions aren’t tainting my opinion of the characters.)
Jason and Nat team ups FOREVER! God, Nat would be SO GOOD for Jason. She’s wired so similarly to him, at a root level (re: reactions to child abuse and violence against woman) but she’s much saner than he is. I feel like Nat would just be an awesome grounding and also esteem-building person for Jason to interact with.

What I would have done is made a couple things that were hinted at more explicit:
-That Loki has a close relationship with his mother, that he went a little crazy falling through the abyss, and/or that the spear was influencing him. And just because I’m a shipper, I would have loved a one-one-on Sif/Loki scene.

The best stuff - the stuff that nails their characterization and touches on why they would be fantastic ship (imho) is either gen (http://redbrunja.livejournal.com/942874.html) or part of a story with a different ship (http://redbrunja.livejournal.com/938528.html).
At this point, it feels almost like a personal injury, because I think Jason Todd is hot as fuck and I would like to read some explicit Steph/Jason (or really, JASON WITH ANY LADY) but no, the a03 tag is a waste-land and tumblr is filled to the brim with excellently done Jason/Tim which leaves me so. cold.

That is hugely disappointing. ngl I ship JayTim pretty hard, but I'm offended whenever there's an active slash fandom but no het fandom for that same character.

That said, I feel like the actress who plays Hayley on TVD would be a decent choice; we have similar coloring and are approximately the same age, and we have a similar face shape. I don’t know if she has blue eyes, though…
