Warnings: gen, no pairings, ensemble, mild swearing
Category: humor, spoof
Spoilers: season 2 finale, mild
Summary: The guys arrive back earlier than planned, but there's an unpleasant surprise waiting in their apartment, and it's mostly Penny's fault.
How it works: So! It turns out my Creative Zen mp3 player has a recording feature! In a desire to come up with fanfic for the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
sheldon_penny comm, I decided to try composing some on my own, in the car, with no prep work, prior writing attempts, or clear goal.
Neat! It made me nervous at first but then was actually pretty fun. I just let my mouth run in a stream of consciousness, so this is not a formally edited and carefully performed fanfic reading. Far from it!
In fact, if you click on that link, you'll get a nightmarish glimpse into my creative process. This is, quite literally, how my head sounds if I'm trying to think of fanfic but have no keyboard near by to type on. For example, if you were to read my brain in the kitchen while I was thinking about fanfic and doing dishes at the same time, you might overhear this. In short: THIS IS MY CREATIVE PROCESS! RUN AWAY NOW. RUN I SAY!
Or in today's case, driving. You'll notice the driving because I sometimes interrupt my narrative with comments about where I'm driving, why am I lost, ooh those trees are pretty, etc. etc. etc. If you hear a loud and horrible crash, you'll know not to follow my example! I dictated episode 2 in the car this afternoon also, because I had time and it was kind of fun, which I will post after this one.
Side note: Although this was written with S/P in mind, it's completely gen, with no pairings at all except a slight one-sided L>P as one might see in the show. I'll type up a written, edited version to post later, without my random narrator comments and self-editing.
ETA: Here is the fanfic itself, written, without my edits mid-description: Magical Pony

Re: damn you, Livejournal! eating my comment!
Date: 2009-06-13 03:59 am (UTC)In New Orleans, right? It's just a hunch, but it feels like you might've met a few in New Orleans. I have a friend who can almost perform stories, with hand gesticulations and loads of energy, but she rehearses her stories so it's not as impressive. I have yet to meet one of those magical storytellers myself.
You know, it was interesting how your cynical side really surfaced while you were improvising; it seems like your ironic sense of humor is most natural to you. Just one example would be the apple-feeding and the tenacity of the cliche; really, sentences like that really mark a Shakafic.

Date: 2009-06-13 04:12 am (UTC)Thank you for noticing; I appreciate that you've read enough to see patterns like that. =) Yeah, I'm pretty cynical sometimes. I actually don't think either of these fics (I posted the other) is very good, per se, but just that each has a few interesting descriptions in the middle of rather banal storylines. Which makes sense since I'm driving at the same time and in-depth story complexity is beyond me. I try to edit out the cliche stuff when I'm writing fanfic, to replace taht with something else. No chance of that when I'm recording like this.
