Bingo card!

[thisbluespirit]

Wisely or otherwise, I signed up for hc_bingo again and got myself a card:

witch hunt	sensory deprivation	scars	deals with demons	imprisonment
abuse	captivity	ostracised from society	estrangement	sex pollen
nervous breakdown	dub-con	WILD CARD	robots / androids	suicide attempt
brainwashing / deprogramming	first transformation	forced to rely on enemy / rival	secret identity discovered	learning to be loved
wings	therapy	possession / mind control	assault	culture shock

I can see a few potential bingos there, without involving any scary squares. We'll see what happens!

Well, what happens will be (inevitably) that I carry on writing fic of interest to few/no other people, but at least I might achieve a bingo with it. Still, you never know. (I think I can definitely combine a square with one of the dw_allsorts fics I have in mind.) Any suggestions? (Before I go off and write a whole Public Eye bingo to the bemusement of the rest of the world.)

Anyway, writing's been weird lately. Let's hope this helps...

Ooh, that's a good card :) Lots of whump-y potential!

I don't know about whump, but I like it, yes. :-)

well, that's like 1/2 the H/C equation is all I meant.

[thisbluespirit]

True! :-)

I don't know the fic parameters, but for 'forced to rely on enemy/rival'... Jamie and Helen Haras-Uquara (Homeward Bounders) meet again in adulthood and have to plough through the desert on her home planet to get to a castle/haven? I think they qualify as at least one-time enemies, (maybe a snappy semi-hostile attraction on meeting again?) and on that planet the barest survival would entail reliance on any companion...

...manages to drag DWJ into another post and is DAMN PROUD OF IT.

As far as I know, you can write any fandom you like. I'm not sure I'd count Helen and Jamie as enemies, though. I mean, they could be, but I wouldn't think to describe them like that. I think Homeward Bounders fic would be quite daunting, though interesting - one day!

:-)

(And by all means bring DWJ into everything, as far as I'm concerned.)

I'm looking at that card and thinking almost all of those have been canon for Blake's 7.

:lol: True! Bad stuff happens in B7 and it writes its own fanfic, basically. :-)

Oh dear, after flunking trope bingo, and with me so behind on the 2 year novel course, and Unconventional Courtships, I shouldn'tshouldn'tshouldn't...

ARgh. Totally am. And will do the same as you with combining them to make allsorts, because I've still got six prompts on that card to fill...

I really like the background this year, and that card of your is very nice indeed.

:-D Hurrah! I'm sure it'll work out - at least in terms of getting something done, anyway. Bingos are quite nicely laid back really.

Yes! I wasn't really going to sign up and then I saw how pretty the cards were and changed my mind. And I'm not sorry - I think it has helped already, and I can see a way forward on the dw_allsorts fic I was stuck halfway through, if I combine it with one of the prompts.

Damn, this is one fine card!

Hmm. Captivity. I see Cake!Fic :D

[thisbluespirit]

Yes, I like it, more than last year's, I think. :-)

:lol: I'm not sure about cakefic. It should have its own square, really.
