Uhoh. Everyone run and hide! It's ...

... a really bizarre scenario.

I ended up on TVTropes last night thanks to dai_atlas. I found myself at the Fridge Horror page, and some links thereabouts led me to the Stuffed in the Fridge page.

I don't remember if I've ever had the courage to say so, but that scenario has been a guilty h/c fascination for me. I think it probably started when I saw the movie Donor. For those who don't know, it involves the food and the shelves being removed from the fridge and a person placed inside, usually dead or thought to be dead. o.o It's horrifying, and done to horrify someone else. I think I only ever did it in a private roleplay, since it's such a dark thing.

So anyway, I see the page and start to contemplate maybe doing something with the scenario. Then I go to sleep and have a weird dream involving my femme fatale character Vivalene, who turns up at some point in almost every major fandom of mine to wreak havoc. In a roleplay, she's been bothering Autor (cradle-robber), and that came out in the dream. In a half-awake state, I mused on combining the two elements.

In a fully awake state, I come up with the following tentative plot: Vivalene, determined to have her latest evil wishes, hires on at Kinkan Academy as a teacher (possibly teaching English, which I've heard is a required subject in Germany). She wants one of the fabled Story-Spinners to write a Story for her in which she gets a treasure she's having trouble finding, but she needs to get into their good graces. Fakir is immovable and does not trust or like her; Autor is a bit softer but soon becomes suspicious of her as well. Vivalene continues to try with him, but ends up in a situation when Autor plays along to trick her. Determining she really can't let him tell what he now knows, she has her henchmen hurt him and then puts him in the fridge before departing her furnished flat. Fakir and Ahiru find him there later. He's still alive, but very cold. He revives and is able to tell Fakir and Ahiru what he knows of Vivalene's scheme and they're able to stop her before she gets away.

That is so convoluted. I think Vivalene might try to drug Autor and make him write the Story for her that way, but something goes wrong. And that's when he's hurt and shoved in the fridge.

My only real question is whether people would come at me with pitchforks and torches for having a working fridge. LOL. For those who are unaware, I set my Tutu fics in the modern day. A controversial move, I know, but I think there are enough odd things throughout the series (such as Ahiru's midriff shirt, Raetsel's modern-looking wedding gown, and especially Fakir's Velcro-looking sports shoes) that modern-day can't be discounted as a possibility. Actually, I feel the only real options are a twisted AU world that's a mix of all eras or modern-day.

If anyone has read this far and actually dares to look, I've attached part of a scene below the cut. I swear it will be much more fleshed-out and polished if this bizarre story ever gets written in full. And oh, the cat stuff? Something else I threw in from the dream. It may be eliminated for the final draft. This scene is convoluted enough without them having to worry like that.

I promise my stories aren't usually this level of weird....
