Quickdrabbles Fic 36: Focused on what I could attract...

[labyrinth2015]

You made a pact, you dropped the act, you focused on what you could attract...

Meh, I'm feeling somewhat written out - I am working on a wedding story (a separate story
from the one on which I'm collaborating with the fabulous frackin_sweet), and it's not going too well - and I want to start on this cracky R possibly-canon, possibly-AU bordello fic, and my guitars-by-gaslight AUbigbang, but I have just no impetus.

And I'm in Court this afternoon, WOE.

As a way of importuning the Muses, I thought I might try the drabbular method recently employed by timeisgone, kissesblow, orochi_kitty and otherbella.

Hundred word drabbles, snatches of story, any Cook, Anthemic, AIS7 pairing; crossovers with X-Men, BtVS/AtS, Discworld, Holmes, The Law. I think I have a tiny legalesque Cook/Ryan Seacrest somewhere! I'll even write you self-insert (of you). Leave me a prompt (word, song, whatever) and rating. Will turn around fast, so as to importune quickly XD

Aw, hon, you are so sweet. Arch is a Muse, right? An anthropormorphic representation of Inspiration himself. So of course he speaks like this. :D

:D! haha, it makes him all mysterious~ and mature. which he would be, after living for hundreds of years, hopefully. :D ngl, adult!archie is a curious thing to wonder about, and this teases the brain.

;) I love the thought of adult Archie too, actually. That was one of my chief motivations for making "All I Really Need" - I wanted to explore how the boys address their relationship as they mature and age. I hope you think I made Arch's journey realistic, and that he grows into his Chapter 10, Chapter 12 self credibly!
