in which i fail at fic

Y'all, help me decide if I can actually commit to [livejournal.com profile] seasonal_spuffy this round. Because last round I ended up posting nothing for the first time ever, and I am worried I will do that again this round.

Keep in mind that:

+ I haven't started my [livejournal.com profile] rarewomen entry

+ I haven't started my Het Mpreg entry, either (when is that due again?)

+ I haven't written anything fic-wise since January, and that was just comment fic for the Bechdel Ficathon. Before that the last thing (of length) I wrote was for Yuletide.

+ My mind is pretty much in my novel-place.

Uuuuugh, I don't know. Like, I love SS. I think it's helping so much to keep our fandom alive and such. And I want to participate! But I just don't know!

That said, leave some things you'd like to see in Buffy/Spike fic in the comments. Maybe something will take over my brain?

Have you ever written anything post-NFA? I'm on a post-NFA kick right now.

[livejournal.com profile] gryfndor_godess and I were discussing a while back that we'd like a Spuffy shag-or-die fic sometime in S7 or post-series, when they aren't in a relationship and each doesn't know how the other feels about them and it's all very awkward and shy and tentative. And there's sex, yes, but it's when they talk it all out that they finally get on the road to Spuffydom.

Alternately, you could write a Spike-loses-his-soul-again fic. Like, permanently. And now what do they do? I'm always up for more of those.

Hmm. That is a lot of plot I'm suggesting there.

Alternately, I recall you saying you really love Vienna, yeah? So send Spike and Buffy there, post-NFA, and have them discover all your favorite places.

Edit: het mpreg ficathon is "due" (for certain values thereof) March 25th. Rare Women is due end of April, I think?

Edit edit: You know we will be said if there is no Lauren-fic, but you gotta do what you gotta do for the sake of the novel. So.

Blechdel Ficathon

Freudian slip? :-P

Maybe if you're not feeling the fic, you could do something else for SS? Meta, picspam, or fanmix perhaps?

I'm going to be completely selfish and say yes because I was really looking forward to your contribution last round!

I love Spuffy from some other character's POV and consider you a queen of this.

This maybe something you're over, but I could stand more. Any season, post series, whatever :)

but LAUREN I will schedule for the very last week if you want! I just want your lovely fic! <3

p.s. no one will complain if your s_s fic fulfills the het mpreg challenge <3 (eta I DON'T KNOW THE DEADLINES OF MY OWN FIC CHALLENGES, WHATEVER, YOU COULD WRITE DRABBLES)
