I need people to understand that the viral onion article that’s going around has been posted five times over the years, always verbatim except for the name of the city and number of dead.
Send me an ask about whether I’ve written a thing [ship, trope, dynamic, category of fandom, etc.] and if I’ve written it, I’ll link you. If I haven’t written it, I’ll tell you how I would write it if I did.
Hmmm. Not really. The closest I’ve come in Pinto is Cleaving, and that’s obviously a false alarm. And then in Prelude in C (A Twilight canon prequel covering from 1918 to the 30s) I include the time when Edward leaves Carlisle and gives up his vegetarianism, and that really feels like a breakup and makeup, though it’s not romantic.
If I were to write that for Pinto… I’d probably make it a two-parter, with the first relationship being back in the 2009-10 time frame, during the first movie and the breakup brutal, with both of them feeling lucky to retain a decent working relationship. And over time, the pain mellows and their friendship becomes real again, because they can be happy for each other even though things didn’t work out, right? And then the make up would be now, after they’ve both had other relationships and have completely given up on each other romantically, but something clicks, some of that old spark is still mixed in with the warmth their friendship has maintained over the years. But this time, they’re both more comfortable in their own skins AND both aware of how absolutely rare that spark is, and they didn’t find it with other people, even though those were perfectly fine relationships. And so they try…
Okay, SO. I posted a picture of a delicious lasagna I had baked. (A real lasagna. The kind you eat.) @jimothy-and-spockums replied to said post and told me to “tag the porn.” So I (being me) replied to that post with a gif of some extremely NSFW graphic man on man porn. And I tagged it lasagna. (I also apologise for failing to tag my porn and offered real porn as restitution.)
WELP. @jimothy-and-spockums was certainly not expecting to see a peen in a bum; however, at roughly that moment we decided to tag our actual porn from that moment on as #lasagna. Because why not.
So now, when you tag your Pie as #lasagna it means he’s looking good enough to eat. Or something.
That all makes perfect sense (in the world of this crazy fandom). But just to help explain why I was confused… you tagged in on some pie belly porn, so I was thinking…
Is it lasagna that makes pie’s belly bulge just a teeny bit?
To add to the confusion, Pie Lasagna IS apparently a thing:
Apple, too…
So… even an experienced Bean can get confused…
Thanks for walking me though it! I’ll tag this porn
lol I can tell you, the AU bug bites. It’s hard to go back, at least for me, when there are so many possibilities.
Yeah, I can definitely see that. I’m just generally so fascinated with the characters in their canon situations, and the various ways those might evolve, that I just keep spinning those tales.
The fact is, I don’t know where my ideas come from. Nor does any writer. The only real answer is to drink way too much coffee and buy yourself a desk that doesn’t collapse when you beat your head against it.
