seriousficYou know what sucks? Wanting to post a fic, but everything you have is a work in progress and you don't want to get stuck posting a half-finished story, so you have to wait on the elbow grease while you get every last i dotted and every last t crossed. For instance, I have two installments in the Bad Girl series (name ironic), wherein Batgirl joins the Birds of Prey as a sort of adoptive family. There's a part where Babs and Dinah are her two gay mommies, a part where Barda is her weird aunt, a part where Misfit is her bratty little sister (that's the part I'm working on). And I need to get everything crystalized before I can post, even though I have two perfectly good fic installments sitting on my hard drive.
And I have the obligatory Spider-Man BND-bashing. As with any BND story, there's a hard-line between bashing OMD-Spidey's actions and admitting that you like the character and think his penis is of adequate length (inside joke). It originally started with a PWP, but I retooled it so that his burgeoning relationship with Felicia is a bit more sweet, and hopefully you can root for them more, even with the Mary-Jane gut-punch lurking in the wings. But at the same time, there's a private little "oh yeah?" glee to writing about Peter Parker masturbating to internet porn. And Felicia even asks him at one point "I remember you taking off your mask on national TV, but not what your face looked like, what's up with that?"
Also, inspired by the polyglut of Dick/Tim/Roy/Martian Manhunter slave-fic out there, I started a fic where, on Apokolips, Barda recaptures Scott Free and is "rewarded" by him being made her slave. Also known as, the fic where I explain the enormous importance of Barda's not-adopted daughter Auralie and how it relates to Barda's nonexistent relationship with Cassandra Cain.
Scott is also her masseuse. Because I was born devoid of this thing you humans call shame.
