ladybug_archiveI am finally approaching the end of the fic for the Serious Illness prompt; it was inspired by a combination of that, Miracle, and Collapse/Fainting, but since I have become obsessive about writing one fic per prompt (more challenging), I'm only doing it for Serious Illness. I started it some time ago, but then was interrupted by the Angel fic. Since finishing that, I've been alternating between the Serious Illness fic and the Bryce Canyon fic.
And for the second time, a song not done by the guys will inspire a Carmen fic. I'm going to write a fic around the song Smooth Criminal. It'll be a loose follow-up to Falling Down Like Dominoes, in that Baby Face Morales will be the "smooth criminal." Kaze mused on the song being from the point of view of the detective assigned to the case, and I keep imagining it being Sean, so we'll see where it goes. I also think Jeff will be involved, a concept which was actually inspired by the full-length version of the Smooth Criminal music video, where the little kid says he taught Michael Jackson all his moves. LOL. Okay, so Jeff's not a kid, but he is a teenager in the fics, compared to the other guys being adults.
And Annie will probably be okay. Ah, ambiguity in songs....
It'll be interesting to flesh out the events of the song so Baby Face won't be OOC. And I'll probably have some scene of Sean/all the guys going to the nightclub that Baby Face frequents, as a parallel to the music video. (What's it called again? The Purple Penguin?)

**amused at The Purple Penguin.** XD

Date: 2009-06-29 12:19 pm (UTC)LOL. She should definitely make an appearance, at any rate!
I *think* that's the right name, but it's been so long I'm suddenly not sure. LOL.

Date: 2009-06-30 12:21 am (UTC)LOL. Sounds like a good nightclub name to me, anyway!

Date: 2009-06-29 03:13 pm (UTC)And yay for a fic with Baby Face! XD And Jeff!
(LOL, Home by the Sea will be my second WITWICS fic inspired by a non-Rockapella song. XD)

Date: 2009-06-29 05:56 pm (UTC)*doesn't know jack about the Monkees XD* And I actually haven't heard many MJ songs. I must rectify this. Looking up the lyrics will have to do for now.
...Wow, I have nothing to contribute.

Date: 2009-06-30 02:17 am (UTC)The Monkees are love. X3 And there's a lot of MJ music videos on YouTube, I think.

Date: 2009-06-30 03:32 am (UTC)Lol, I used to name my private AOL chatrooms after it in highschool. XD
Are you writing Monkees fic again, Daisy-Faye-bug?
no subject
Date: 2009-06-30 03:42 am (UTC)LOL.
Not exactly.... But Baby Face is an occasional antagonist for the fictional Rockapella. XD

Date: 2009-06-30 04:48 am (UTC)Interestingly enough, so did other people. We had a few chat-overlap mishaps with strangers suddenly APPEARING in locked rooms.
Ahh, I see. XD

Date: 2009-06-30 05:05 am (UTC)Oh dear. XD What did you do?
no subject
Date: 2009-06-30 10:23 pm (UTC)Not a whole lot you can do, short of creating a new room with a more unique name. Unless you fancy chatting up mystery-people.

Date: 2009-07-01 02:53 am (UTC)How annoying! Most places would say people couldn't create another place with that name, if it was already in use. -.-; FAIL.

Date: 2009-06-30 07:44 am (UTC)1.) Watching Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro (because Miyazaki plus Lupin is love, but also reminded of the amazing AMV with Lupin and "Smooth Criminal")
2.) Thinking about my OC Annie, Baby Face's ex. So I was a little amused that Baby Face was on your mind too. I should really drabble them sometime. Annie, the evil little Catholic school girl...
And I ended up making another minor OC named Annie... who is also a thief... But much more laid back.no subject
Date: 2009-06-30 11:42 am (UTC)I've meant to see that movie sometime.
Yes, drabble! X3
LOL @ there being two Annies. XDno subject
Date: 2009-06-30 11:46 am (UTC)Instead, I've ended up writing a drabble about Annie #2. Ah the irony...no subject
