Out of utter curiosity, if I was chained up in your attic (I prefer attics, basements are damp and cold, attics theoretically at least have windows), and I had to write you one story, what would you request? (demand?) Or alternatively, what's something you always hoped I'd write but know is never going to happen?

An Ari, George, Brad thing in the Mad Men setting. Because I think it'd be awesome.

You'll be happy to hear that we got the birds out of the attic, and even (I think) all the dead bird bodies, so it's all set for you to move in!

I don't have anything specific, per se, but I would really love to see something heavily plot driven, I think I saw a spy au? Something like that, but maybe not even au. I want to see what twists and turns and surprises I'm sure you're capable of.

And I love the idea of it including a large majority of the team plus maybe Fischer? In some awkward capacity where he's moved on, become successful and because he's still a major corporate player they have to interact with him on some level.

HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You totally deliberately posted this when I had no access to LJ, didn't you?

I don't have an attic. I have a lovely store room though...? Tis filled with old books, might be fun XD

ROFL. I dunno, er, something featuring Saito and Robert as main characters? You always write the character's pysche so well, so I'd love to see how you write them.

Gotta be honest. If you were chained up in my attic, I would make you write another Brad/Nate story. Anything really (though that photojournalist AU sounds pretty awesome and I wouldn't mind a surgeon/patient AU story). I mean, you ended your GK fic writing on such a high note, I feel kinda bad even mentioning it. However, that being said, I really loved the Messenger. My attic fic would be a story with angst of epic proportions. Just, go for it. Break my heart. It'd be completely fine if you mended it with a happy ending or hurt/comfort, but some of the best love stories don't end that way. I'd just want to give you free reign to see what you could do.

As for fic you would probably never write: Girl with the Dragon Tattoo AU, but Brad is the jaded journalist and Nate is the tattooed, brilliant hacker with a dark past. I'd love to see Nate as the more cynical/damaged of the two; this time he has the tragic backstory.

Dude, that is the most thrilling thing I've heard all day.

The most awesome and epic HP, OC, Ocean's 11, Chuck, Merlin, Generation Kill, Southland, Inception crossover. (WHAT I HAVE BEEN IN A LOT OF YOUR FANDOMS.)

I would treat you very well indeed to ensure that you finish all seventy billion words (approximate figure) ...before you die of exhaustion and brain-overload.

[avid-slacker.livejournal.com]

They've been showing reruns of Southland on TNT and every time I watch I think about how much I would love to see you write more about John Cooper and the epic love he has for his boo.

I squeed and then I laughed!

I kind of want to write this fic now, and follow it up where Eduardo discovers all the creepy candid photos that Mark took of him, asleep, with THAT HAIR, and then he wonders why he's even surprised because Mark is the ultimate creepster.

WRITE IT! WRITE IT! OMG WRITE IT PLEASE? PLEASE? PLEASE?!

*KEYBOARD SMASH OF GLEE*

[jibrailis.livejournal.com]

I will add it to the list! The increasingly tall list of things I told myself I would get done! But slowly but surely, I will get to it. :D

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I have a list like that. It's just a hot mess. You are much better about these things than I am, I am sure.

[deedlit50.livejournal.com]

I'd actually love to see your take on the new Hawaii Five-0. I don't really have anything specific in mind but I know you could do awesome things with those characters.

[http://users.livejournal.com/xenakis_/]

Yes! Yes! This! There can never be to much Old Money Eames! :DDD

[deedlit50.livejournal.com]

That could be seriously cool. Sort of like frantic_allonsy's Inception/zombie fic 'Immaculate Dream' (http://frantic-allonsy.livejournal.com/120068.html) only a lot darker.

THE ATTIC IS MY HEAD

I don't have any ideas :( The Nothing Happens club is definitely taking contributions, though.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Look what we did! (http://hackthis.livejournal.com/570272.html?thread=18108832#t18108832)

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Oh god, the angst story of the ages! That was a beautiful story concept though, wasn't it?

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Brilliance.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I JUST READ THAT THE OTHER DAY! HOLD ON RIGHT QUICK. (http://community.livejournal.com/eames_arthur/464374.html#cutid1)

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Alas, I have watched it, but it does not hold my interest.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Awwww. Southland FTW.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Are there bats in this belfrey?

THE OUTSIDERS IS THE BEST THING EVER. Aw, Dallas, ruining millions of girls with his tortured soul.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Oh, Mad Men. *sighs*

For about two months I have been trying to parse together a Robert/Saito fic, but the fucker is hopeless. It makes me sad, because clearly the inception was just a big old blind for Saito to get Robert. If the company goes, Robert can be his own man and Saito can woo him.
