sometimes the world is just so pretty
Aug. 4th, 2012 10:41 amSo I once read this fic on ff.n where someone had taken Vonnegut's short story Long Walk To Forever, taken out the names, put in Buffy and Angel, and changed some phrases.
And there's song fic, most of which is randomly inserted lyrics, but anyway, you try to write around a framework, I guess? Maybe.
And then there's that thing you do where you take a romcom plot and adjust it to fit canon and your characters.
I feel like I'm doing something in between these three things, except I seem to be taking geometric proofs and dissertations about wormholes and randomly inserting Bruce and Tony's names in various portions. Sometimes I kind of jigger the order of equations and add exclamation points and Steve saying, "What's going on, guys?!?" It feels like writing porn. It feels, in fact, hotter than most porn I read.
Also, this expresses pretty much all the things I ever wanted to about Bruce and Tony. Hopefully it's ALL OVER THE INTERNET by now, but it needs more:
It started with fanart. Then a song.
Then someone actually wrote the music for the song and sang it, because whoever they are they're effing gorgeous: here they are being gorgeous.
