Eeeek. Sorry. If you're like me, you got your assignment and came here straight away and there was nothing there.
Tiny bit late, but here it is.
Basically, I am super easy to write for as there is very little that I don't love. And the things I don't like, I specifically state so you can avoid from the get go. This will prove important later, I'm sure.
Specifically:
1)The Uglies Series: I'm going to keep this really vague as it's been ages since I've read the entire series and so there is no specific scenario I had in mind. I would just like the relationship of Tally and Shay explored in any way you'd like.
2.) Mary Poppins: ♥Bert and Mary♥ Anything you want to do with that would be lovely. I just sort of love their relationship and would love some part of it explored either pre, post or during canon. Romance or not, sex or not, I'm cool with anything. If you got me to write the Bird Woman I would take seriously anything about her. Anything.
3.) The Outsiders: Okay, this is basically one of my favorite books ever. When people point to books that changed their lives, I point to this one. I won't get into the hows and whys of that, I'll just throw out some thoughts on what I'd like to see. When I first nommed it, I did so because someone else had as well and didn't mention my favorite character-- Johny Cade. This needed to be remedied. So I nommed him and for a hoot, Bob, the dude he killed. The first thought that came to me was an after-life fic where they contemplate their lives together, the boy who died a hero and the bully (or not--make him human if you want/can get ) he killed. Fun times.
Basically though (have I said that a lot?) I love Johnny. I also have an unnatural affinity for Sodapop and would love something from his POV and even his own struggle with something. The only thing I ask in this one, if you're going to make it a romance of any type (which you can totally do if you'd like) please no Curtiscest. Thanks. :))
The next three were chosen because I work with children and have spent A LOT of time reading these stories. They are important to me. It is also very important that they not be fucked with, you know. I need them to be gen and rather wholesome, or at least as wholesome as they began... no shipping Winnie and Piglet, no Wild Thing Sex Times Shenanigans... that sort of thing. Cool?
4.) Winnie the Pooh: I just really like me some Christopher Robin and Pooh chillin' and contemplating life and whatnot. Or really anything else. God, I'm sorry, I'm really not helping am I?
5.) Where the Wild Things Are: Okay, this book is a new love of mine. I sort of hated it when I was little, not sure why. It might have been that I needed some resolution, some lesson to be learned. Maybe I really needed Max to be punished because he was a little shit and then he got to go to a magical world and come back and there was a dish waiting for him and that never happened for me. It wasn't until reading it now to the Wild Things in my care that it's not really about those things but rather a celebration of imagination and how it can save you. Anyway. I just really rather love this story now and would love to read more in the universe of it. It also can be pre, post or canon setting. It can also focus on any of the characters or create some new ones. Go crazy!
6.) Good Night Gorilla: Okay. This is the cutest story I've been forced to read a 100 times a day. I love it. There's so much there on each page to see and question and explore. Seriously, if you have little ones, read this book to them. Ask questions, point out all the random awesome on each page. The story in my head every time I read it is the story behind the Gorilla and his trusty Mouse with the banana. What is up with them? Are they besties? Is the Mouse his hired-man? His Jeeves? Is their friendship equal or one sided? I NEED TO KNOW!
