Annoying Stories...
Aug. 4th, 2003 07:00 amOK... so I'm in this phase right now as far as my writings. I like being in phases... gives me something else to think about when driving and showering without having to think about what to think about.
Anyway, I've got this story that just sprung into my head... and I can't get rid of it. It's begging me to be written, and it's not at all a bad story. In fact, it'd be a fun read. The problem is, it's Remus/Severus. I've never had the desire to cross house lines when slashing before. It's just never appealed to me. And now, well, it still doesn't appeal to me. I keep telling them that NO it's not what I want to write. I think of Remus/Sirius as a one true pairing and I don't WANT to pair one of them (especially my favorite of the two) up with SNAPE of all people! Yeech! Bleh! But the story keeps pushing at me. It keeps telling me that Remus SHOULD shag Snape senseless. And I keep shuddering as the imagery pops into my head.
So right now I'm torn. Can I actually write a story that sickens me? Should I? Gah!
What if this sends me down a road of pairings I cannot stand? What if I start writing Lucius/Harry fics? Or Ginny/Tom fics? Or... or Ron/Draco fics? *shudder* I'm perfectly happy staying within house lines, as much as I think people of other houses have a right to have relationships! Why the HECK does my muse want me to write Remus/Severus?
First the plot bunnies bring me WAY too many ideas. Now they bombard me with a pairing I'm not into and don't want to be into. I'd sooner write Snape/Giant Squid! (Mmmm move those tentacles, baby! LOL) Ugh. I'm absolutely furious with my bunnies. And I think I'm just going to have to buckle down and write it and get these images out of my head for good. But not tomorrow. Tomorrow I have to work my butt off *sigh*

Date: 2003-08-04 07:44 pm (UTC)I was quite intrigued after I spent several hours readng the Neville Fuh-Q-Fest... I think I could manage an all right job with Neville. I really love the little guy a lot. Might be fun to try. *G* And might get me out of this flipping mode I'm in LOL
Hmmmmmm... lots of interesting possibilities, as well. I'm not huge on Neville/Ginny but I think he really does fancy her. So that would be a nice outlet for the comfort... hmmmm

Date: 2003-08-06 04:43 am (UTC)Yeah... it's not at all a ship I sail. I've read a few stories with them and it does nothing for me. And I feel like Remus jumping Snape- even if it's all on instinct- is going to really kill Sirius when he gets out of prison and finds out they had a thing.
But at the same time, the plot line begs for it to happen. So I'm riiiiight on the edge of having Remus shove Snape's pants down and hump him sily OR Remus shoving Snape away and going to jerk off in a cold shower. LOL! What a screwed up story either way! LOL! Maybe you have to read the first in the series to appreciate this one..... then again, I wrote it and I'm still not sure I appreciate this. It's just yelling to be written. Weirdness!
