Guess who's still at work?

Guess who's still at work late for the third time this week?

Guess who was at work till 9 on Friday?

Guess who's about to start gnawing on her cubicle walls?

Oh, ConHugeCo. Really, you make the "quit my job, shave my head, and go live in a garret" option far too appealing.

I'd ask for distractions, but there's no telling what will be blocked by ConHugeCo. (And, sadly, Youtube is out -- not blocked but out for other reasons -- otherwise I'd be watching A Muppet Family Christmas and clinging to my holiday spirit.)

Maybe I'll write total crack fanfic and mail it to myself, thus scaring whatever poor sap gets to go through my emails. Hmm...Sorting Hat/Companion Cube songfic? Moustachio the Thinkonium/Tik-Tok road trip buddy movie? Jeeves and the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad Day? The King of All The Cosmos/The King in Yellow/King Kong steel cage match?

Actually, coming up with these prompts is kind of fun. Maybe I'll just come up with a big long list and make you all choose one.

That's be awesome, actually.

The trouble would be deciding which Moustachio -- blustery, older Moustachio, or the new, hello world, bent on conquest Moustachio.

Obviously, the answer is both.

That's what the flashback sequences are for.

Hm. I was thinking something epistolary, so flashbacks might be difficult. I'll see if I can work this out.

Far be it from me to interfere with your structure. I can wait.

>> The King of All The Cosmos/The King in Yellow/King Kong steel cage match?

Don't forget Burger King. With the mask, he might be almost as scary as the King in Yellow.

Or how about Elvis Presley's real comeback tour, as The King in Yellow/The Crimson King?

Can't wait to see your list.

...Burger King In Yellow.

There goes any hope of me sleeping tonight.

I'll post it tomorrow morning and see what happens. Some of these may have to be written no matter what.

I will use ticky boxes! There will be more than one!

Hmm....I may have to write this one anyway.

I'm still trying to figure out if it's his bad day or Bertie's.

Are you still there?
And if you are, do you need me to send you what I sent to Gmail earlier today?

From: [identity profile] stealthmuffin.livejournal.com
Nope -- finally got home, then curled up away from computer for a while. Better now -- and thanks for what you sent!

More just annoying at the moment. Upper management, though...I have my doubts.

Would eagerly read any of these fics. Just sayin'.

While you're collecting crackfic ideas, here are a couple for the hopper:
- Delores Umbridge/Gilbert Norrell crossover PWP (with a nod to Fajitas for identifying this crossover OTP), and
- Rover/John Steed's umbrella angst.

You're right, coming up with these IS fun. :)

A part of my brain shrivels and dies at the thought of Umbridge PWP. Can I use McGonagall instead?

And, sadly, I know too little about the shows in your second suggestion. Which means that you have to write it now.

John Steed Umbrella Angst would be awesome
