I have succumbed to the allure of a trope bingo card.

wingfic	fork in the road	virginfic	au: romance novel	poor communication skills
mind control	hurt / comfort	time travel	futurefic	indecent proposal
bets / wagers	snowed in	FREE ★ SPACE	curtainfic	rites of passage / coming of age
soul bonding / soulmates	au: alternate professions	au: space	holidayfic	telepathy / mindmeld
bodyswap	handcuffed / bound together	deathfic	language and translation	first time / last time

Somehow I'm not sure I need pushing to write more wingfic, but everyone should come try to convince me to write things/discuss my options!

Oooo. So many of my ~very favorite things~...although first time/last time sounds so potentially tragic!

[opusculasedfera]

I got a couple sad ones, which I don't know how to write! I never write sad fic! I don't know how picky trope bingo gets though, and I suppose there are lots of cheerful things with a natural end date where last time would only be bittersweet at worst and possibly totally happy (graduating school, for example), or I suppose any fandom with some canonical terrible event so the last time is the success bit. Still easier than deathfic anyhow, even if I'm not sure how to write it. :/

Yesssssss. Or, you could flipping it around so that it's last time/first time: one thing ending, another beginning. Graduations work for that, too, of course, and so do political campaign stories, and theatre aus leading up to opening night, and...ooo, lots of interesting things.

[opusculasedfera]

Ooh, yes, very true! I hadn't thought about theatre, but this might be a push to write Slings & Arrows fic or something (if the voices aren't too intimidating /o\). Or Community, because school... will have to ponder.

Is curtainfic what I think it is?

[opusculasedfera]

I don't know what you think it is, but it's usually shorthand for the kind of domestic fic where the most serious problem is picking out the curtains? Squabbling non-seriously about groceries. That kind of thing. :)

(Or the single glorious fic about curtains in love, but I'm not sure that's a repeatable phenomenon.)
