Bad Summaries meme

[selenak]

Got this one from fernwithy: Write deliberately terrible summaries of your stories, FFN-style.

Okay, a representative quota from various fandoms in which I've written. The stories described thereafter are to be found here. So, let's channel my inner 13-years-old:


"The Haunting, Hunted Kind": Darla meets Connor, like, in a "Portrait of Jennie" way, but without the icky romance OMG!

"Not in Words": Marriage with Londo sucks. Timov doesn't get to have sex with him even once! (Except in the special edition of this story, but I won't write those scenes unless U r&r pleaze!!!!)

"City Girls": Buffy and Dawn are in Rome after the show, and there's monster fighting and lots of tourism. Angel reference! Spike reference! Darla reference! All my friends like it so I posted it.

"Cold Heaven": Prophet/Sisko sex! But not like that LOL, it's Joseph not Ben.

"Facets": Sloane/Emily! Sloane/Rambaldi (but not like THAT - ICK!)! Sloane/Irina! Sloane/Jack! Sloane/Sydney! Hey, it's not my fault he's into the Bristow clan, so don't flame plz!

"Sole Occidente": Padmé puts on her old dress for Palpatine and he totally blows her off.

In other news, shezan is going to come for the weekend, and as I'll be showing her Bamberg and visiting the Bayreuth Festival with her, that means even less online access. So I was really lucky to be in possession of all 22 episodes of American Gothic before that, thanks to kernzelda, who cannot be praised enough.

Hah! The others look amusing, but I remember this story. It's astonishing how you can *totally* destroy the depth and pathos of a story with a single line... *g*

Have a fun weekend!

That, I understand, is the purpose of the exercise.*veg*

[wychwood]

Oh, of course; it just struck me as a startlingly effective example :)

This is a cute meme.

You're most welcome to the AG. I only wish it would come out on DVD. Currently, I'm starting with Season 2 of B7.

I thought two or three days ago I saw the announcement it will come out on DVD after all. At least in your region - who knows when/if we of Region 2 will get it...

B7: you are a public benefitor. Those I do have on DVD, and am hence selflessly glad.*g*

Heeeeee! Heeeee! Still wondering if a chestnut silk pantsuit with a very dressy black top can work as evening wear? With proper jewels?

[selenak.livejournal.com]

By all means, go ahead with it.

I think there's something wrong with me. Reading this summary, for some reason, made me want to read the fic. o.O

As long as you send feedback.*g*

You spell too well--but the thing is, these descriptions still make SENSE: not ff.net level.

(Not like I don't have my stuff there, but where else? & :-)

where else indeed *g*

That's the problem for the enterpising fanfic author. There are invidual archives for individual fandoms, to be sure, but not for all of them...

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

like, omg, your summaries rawk! Darla and Connor are soooo cute, and Buffy & Dawn in Rome are just like in what's the movie called with Atticus Finch and the girl from "my fair ladY?"

Heee! I like the "praise me or I won't write porn!" one.

[selenak.livejournal.com]

One of the most common ploys of the modern fanfic writer.*g*

I think your inner 13-year-old is a bit too film literate for the average these days *g*. I wonder if "Portrait of Jennie" is out of DVD as my inner 13-year-old loves it.

"Not in Words": Marriage with Londo sucks. Timov doesn't get to have sex with him even once! (Except in the special edition of this story, but I won't write those scenes unless U r&r pleaze!!!!)

LOL. I've r&r'd that one so I demand my sex scene.

*sulks*

As if I didn't have my multiverse stuff to finish. But okay, sooner or later, you'll get your Centauri marriage porn. *g*
