ask and ye shall receive

Because apparently Sunday is for procrastination... Well, no, I have like firm plans to clean the office, go to the shop, do the dishes and wash some laundry. You're all jealous of my exciting life now, aren't you?

Aaaanyway. Let's do a meme. A writing meme, which is the type I'm chronically unable to resist.

Ask me a question about one of my fanfics. It can be absolutely anything in any fic and I will tell you the honest-to-god answer. Don’t hold back. Ask about major upcoming plot points if you want to. Whatever you ask, I have to answer truthfully.

Fic I've written, fic I've promised to write, WIPs, anything is fair game!

I'm going to include original writings into that as well. Masterlist of everything posted is here. Go to town people!

I HAVE A QUESTION. What are you going to write next for anywhere_road? I feel like I should know - in fact, I think I do? - but I'm going to abuse my co-author status here and ask. Or, alternatively, what plot arc and/or story are you most looking forward to writing for anywhere_road?

Also: what happened to Much and Robin's relationship after if you are the rhyme and i the refrain? Did it stay the same, or did it change in some significant way?

/o\ I currently have four plot ideas/WIPs for anywhere_road so, um, I'm just going to outline them here so you can poke me with a sharp stick:
1. your birthday fic, i.e. "the five times Andy ends up in a hospital and it's not Ash's fault" - the obviously won't all be about Andy being sick, there are other reasons to end up in a hospital after all... Significant about this is just the last scenario will sort of deal with the events of All Hell Breaks Lose but I don't know if this is something we should plot/write together instead, in which case I could make it "four times..." Then I also wanted to ask if you'd be interested in writing "one time Andy ends up in hospital and it's totally Ash's fault" based on that little ficlet i wrote you where Ash is sick and vomiting and it's maybe not food poisoning at all... (just an idea, cos i sort of like the symmetry)
2. hustler!Andy fic... this is a little vague. Why would Andy be hustling when he could just mindwhammy people into giving him what he wants? But maybe the powers only work on one person at the time... or there's a temporary dampening spell on him? I don't know. What I do know that I have the scene plotted where the Ash has to ring the Winchesters for some emergency bail money and then go get Andy out of jail and how he's not very happy about any of it. *hands*
3. The one where Andy picks up a puppy except it's not an ordinary puppy (but a witch's familiar). However, it is a very large and enthusiastic puppy and will chew on Ash's computer cables and possibly pee on his favourite t-shirt, but Ash is sort of incapable of actually throwing it out of the van because the sight of Andy with the puppy would melt a heart of stone and let's face it, Ash's heart is hardly stone when it comes to Andy in the first place.
4. a drunken!sex PWP with some angst... early days when everything is new and uncertain. Andy is an affectionate drunk.

The one I'm really looking forward to writing is of course the much hinted Zombie encounter where Ash ends up ruining his hair and Andy unsuccessfully tries to mindwhammy the undead. This is something I think we should tackle together, e.g. tell it in short alternating pov sections...

Okay, Much and Robin. Ceasura (http://kat-lair.livejournal.com/105909.html#cutid1) is the drabble that hints at the aftermath of that fic. The way I've written Much and Robin in if you are the rhyme and i the refrain I can't see a happy ending to them. Much is not satisfied with less than everything any more, tired of always compromising and Robin is unable to give more than a part of himself. Honestly, I think that was the last time they came together like that. It was Much's decision, because sometimes he's the only one who can make the hard choices even when they're the right one.

FOUR?! I only have... one. Two, if you count the zombie encounter.

1. I would not be at all adverse to the idea of writing 'one time Andy ends up in hospital and it's totally Ash's fault'. I don't mind if you want to write the five things yourself, though. I'll try and bring it up when we next talk on MSN?
2. The dampening spell thing could work... it's a shame we can't set it after AHBL, because we know that Sam's powers weakened after that. I was going to say that maybe Andy feels guilty mindwhamming people into giving him their money, because it's not like taking a guy's coffee or borrowing the Impala, it's actually stealing. Or or it could look too suspicious if a guy just hands over some money on the street, so Andy lures them into alleyways under the pretense of being a hooker and then mindwhammies them into handing over their money. But the dampening spell would work, too.
3. PUPPYFIC OMG. ♥ (What's the puppy's naaaaame? :3)
4. WOO DRUNKEN SEX. Andy the affectionate drunk. ♥

Ahh, I didn't realise you'd written an aftermath drabble. I do apologise. (I've failed, haven't I?). Aw. Your Much and Robin backstory makes me go "oh boys". That's pretty much how I would see their relationship, I think, if I weren't such an incurable romantic.
