the yay for friendship! comment ficathon

[livejournal.com profile] copperiisulfate and I were talking yesterday about how ~sexy times~ tend to get more attention than friendship on TV and in fandom, and what a shame that can be. (Although a pretty delightful and understandable shame.) So I was thinking that maybe it would be fun to celebrate good old-fashioned friend time in a comment ficathon. Which will either be super jolly, or super super lame. I can't quite decide. But I figure it's worth a shot! And really, it's always just fun to have an excuse to make up prompts.

Ergo ...

the yay for friendship! comment ficathon



RULES, or whatever

1. Despite the general concept, I think the pairings this can apply to are pretty widespread. Friendship is an important component of romantic love, after all! I guess the bottom line is to focus the fic more on buddydom than makeouts & such? (Basically: this is your spinster aunt's comment ficathon. I'm [livejournal.com profile] dollsome, I'm worse than everybody's aunt.)


2. Prompts should basically have a 'Fandom -- pairing or characters -- prompt' format.


3. If you reply to a prompt, please put the fandom, pairing/characters, and title in your comment's subject line!


4. Be nice; have fun! :D


5. If you'd like to spread the word--

All the feelings, ALL THE FEELINGS, this is so beautiful.

(And even so, a part of her is torn. No, all of her is torn. I left something behind, Morgana said. Gwen doesn't dare hope anymore.)

Crying foreverrr. I know that it will never be like this, but there is nothing that gets me quite as much as imagining Gwen and Morgana keeping their fondness for each other, in their own quiet wistful way, while the boys are all sound and fury and epic wars between good and evil.

thank you! i pretty much wrote this while bells for her was playing in the background and yeah, canon can go and suck it, these two will be soul sisters FOREVER. i too am a fan of the contrast between their (imagined) relationship, how it would be quiet, understatedness while the boys are all about the loud, grand gestures.
