discoveredinaljWell, we know it hasn't been very long since Temptations ended, but that was such a lo-ong spread out challenge we wondered if people might fancy a quickie..? *g*
So here is Discovered On May Day, in honour of the first day of May - a nice, simple celebration of spring and fertility, of maypoles and madrigals and 'obby 'osses, of the Haymarket Riots, and of labourers and workers around the world.
If you would like to join in, please sign up below, and then simply post your fic/art/vid/thoughts/creations on 1st May - just over two weeks away. I mean, can't you see the lads dressed all in white, dancing together and banging sticks..?

The only person fully equipped for the job on my flist won't do as I'm going to surprise her with a Pros fic for her when I finish it.... And that was a very long, complex story you didn't need! Sorry: essay is making me ramble!
Thankyou again! :D

Love that you're writing Pros for a friend - and for May Day too!
*really really goes to start work*

Course, you could always think of it proportionately - all the people who won't be able to buy the zine, and so only have access to your fic online will be eternally grateful... (and will put your head very nicely back on its shoulders, making sure it's straight and that the nassssty kitties haven't drooled over it too much). *g*
Yeay!

Date: 2007-04-12 06:26 pm (UTC)It's a funny thing - the two fandoms are about the same age, but the Pros has a far older tradition of writing smut than Starsky and Hutch does.

Date: 2007-04-16 09:02 pm (UTC)Ahem. I need to get to know Napoleon and Illya better before I get any more serious about them.
But, I will have a Pros story for the first. And it will be smutty - I think. I've just got a vague notion at the moment, but I'm sure I'll manage.
Currently, there's a nice lady on one of my lists who is trying to unload all of her S&H zines by holding various challenges and competitions. Today's was "write a S&H limerick in 24 hours". Since I own almost no zines, and can't really afford to buy them, I've been doing her challenges.
I can't help it. I'm polyfictional.
We can all live in harmony, though, can't we? :-)

Date: 2007-04-16 09:06 pm (UTC)Yeay for Pros stories though! I'm only at the vague notion stage myself - but it'll all work out in the end, right?
Love your friend's idea for getting rid of her zines! Must remember that should anything ever befall my love of the lads... (*hugs them close*)

I could easily buy Face (because he would do anything on two legs, and maybe some on four) and Murdock (because he's insane). Anyone boffing Hannibal, though, is just way too close to incest for me. And BA... well, I've read some I like, but I think he's too reactionary to go along with it convincingly. And his mom would never approve.

Date: 2007-04-16 09:26 pm (UTC)Now BA and Murdoch I could probably see (reluctantly, with my eyes squeezed shut and peering out through my fingers), cos it's that whole methinks-he-protesteth-too-much syndrome. But really... just... no thank you... :s (Mind you, this from the girl who says no thank you to any slash pairing except B/D... *g* I never said I was being fair!)
