Writing frustration

[winter]

I totally should post something Star Wars related, except for the fact that I didn't realise posting my info in imadra_blue's friending meme would lead to people actually friending me. So. Um. Probably not the right moment to mention the fact I haven't touched Star Wars with a ten foot pole in a long while.

Anyway, spent today trying to fic and failing. Current working-on-them-right-now list, just to motivate me tomorrow at work, because apparently I'm unable to write at home; at this rate I'll be able to write something I want to write around... hm, July?

- 3 Tanz der Vampire stories (trials of a vampire father, very twisted Dracula/Krolock and Herbertfic). All for fyrie *expletive deleted*

- Vlad and Gabriel by the fire, for ariss_tenoh, with sincere apologies for the delay

- Coldfire: Family Ties, possible vignettes, for Gerald Tarrant. Peskiest muse ever

- next set of Dooku drabbles for the 1character prompts, and the Dooku-and-Obi-Wan fic, for imadra_blue

- miscellaneous Dooku and non-Dooku fic for the SW people on the f-list because I'm feeling guilty

Oh, and on top of everything else I may be able to combine my obligations towards fyrie, the Coldfire people and the Star Wars people in one fic. But I've a feeling it might get me a wee bit flamed =^.^=

In other news, GIP. *purrs*

EDIT: *headdesk* Completely forgot. fyrie did it again. The next installment of her Buffy/Tanz crossover killed me even deader. Even if you don't know anything about Buffy or Tanz, if you have the slightest fondness for dominant vampires, for Lucifer's sake read this story.

Oh, good if it isn't Tanz. The image of Gerald and von Krolock teaming up against Vader was slightly worrisome.

(And sounds just like Anakin.)

If he's doing the ripping, then I can understand the reluctance. Those stains are so hard to get out of clothing.

My Gerald and von Krolock get along surprisingly well, but I'm hoping that inevitable tag-teaming will happen against a more challenging opponent than Yippee!Boy ;)

Nope. All he has to do in the fic is listen, and then munch on someone. Not my fault that he decided to have existential angst over vampirising his son at said son's firm request...

*laughs* Gerald and von Krolock just seem to have a lot in common. I can just picture them team up to eliminate that mind-whammying brat.

And well, it's a good moment to go into existential angst...

I don't know if you're familiar with Batman, and Batman Begins, but I'm beginning to think they might find a bit of a challenge in taking on Ra's Al Ghul. He's functionally immortal, so once they're done with him they can chuck his corpse into a Lazarus Pit and he'll be ready for more fun the next morning...

Herbert's rather annoyed, since he's the one bleeding all over the bed while dad is frozen at the door to the inn. I can relate to his irritation, really.

Not familiar with the guy, but he certainly sounds like someone they would like. Perfect for all kinds of experiments - imagine the fun they can have!

Ah. I imagine I'd be slightly impatient in that case as well. So he'd better get over his existential angst quickly before Herbert gets really upset?

That, and he's an eco-terrorist who thinks humanity should die/regress in civilisation so that nature can thrive. Right up Gerald's alley, really, I won't even have to prod our dear Hunter into action.

Herbert says that he can always start with the gruesome sound effects to provide motivation, but he'd rather not. It's undignified.

Ouch. Eco-terrorism. While Gerald may be all for nature terrorizing annoying people, it's only permitted if it happens under his control, without threatening his carefully constructed society.

*pets Herbert* And dignity is everything, of course.
