Off the Cliff

How to scare yourself empty in five minutes: look at that list of unfulfilled fic requests in obscure fandoms. Don't get me wrong: the scariness for me is in thinking about actually writing some of these suckers.
( Considerations of voice )

Note 1: People want Daryun/ Arslan. Ack. Someone wants Rika. Ack again. Modesty Blaise-- well, as an exercise in voice, yes. Ditto The Mask of Apollo, probably the only one of her characters I'd like to write. And uhh rushthatspeaks wants slash with Dian de Momerie/Harriet Vane/Wimsey? What's the definition of slash here, because where I come from it's two series guys, certainly, and possibly two series women, but that's pushing it.

Note 2: 'Scout discovers she's a lesbian' sounds like a bad ff.net summary. But. But. Given that Truman Capote is an actual character in TKaM, you only need to transpose Scout into a Capote short story. It won't be me that does it but, y'know, it's doable.

Note 3: 12 Kingdoms, Youko/ Rakushun. No. Go away. No no and no. Not unless there's a story around it and I don't do plots. But Rakushun.... No. (puts hands over ears) No. No. And No I said no I won't no
