i'll do whatever you want me to

So [livejournal.com profile] jchalo had this dream about me writing and posting a fic.

So here it is, because I'm nothing if not suggestible.

Are Friends Electric?

Tee! Thank you!

wow. that was amazing, hon...it gave me goosebumps. because the imagery of the power lines is almost exactly how it was in my dream...and you wrote it so it was JC who knew what to do, he knew to bring them all together and harness whatever it was that was calling to them. i love that...so so much.

and this....
When he went to sleep that night, to the incessant humming, he dreamed of power lines outlined stark against a blue sky, dark like Chris' razor shocks of hair, blue like Justin's electric-glitter eyes. He dreamed of staring up at them while he ran his hand up along one of the support posts and there were splinters that snickered under his skin but he couldn't stop staring at those clean, dark lines.

....is just stunning.

i love you :)

Whoo-hoo! I'm so glad you liked it, honey--especially since I wrote it for you in the first place. You and your intriguing dreams make for good fic ideas.

And yes, JC just kind of took over and directed the story. It was his show, really. Crazy boy.

Thanks for the feedback, and for the idea! *snug*

Wheeeee!

That rocked! Jungian inspiration, yo ;)

*skips off happily clutching fic to her chest, ignoring the slight sense of menace that permeates it*

*giggle* And you! You're also why I wrote it, because you encouraged. Dear creature.

*snug* Thank you! And never mind that screepy-crawly feeling. The pups'll learn how to deal with it without too much weirdness. I think. ^_~

so absolutely fantastic, it's almost too absolutely fantastic for words! I loved every bit of it - it was dark and ominous and at the same time welcoming and friendly. I added your site to my favorites list so I could read more of your shtuff!

Wow--thanks, Riddle! I'm terribly glad thay you enjoyed the fic (especially since it's one of my odder ones) and even more delighted that you wanted to read the rest of my stuff. Thanks again for the feedback!

You rock my casbah.

Just, wow.

This is an amazing concept and you did it beautifully. I could practically feel the static on my skin.

I especially loved this image: JC stopped under them, panting, and tilted his head back so far it burned and snapped at the base of his skull, but he had to look at those lines, even when the thunder drummed ominously up his spine.

Thank you so much, sweetie! I'm thrilled to hear that the whole thing worked for you. Plus, you have what may be the cutest icon in existence, so it's doubly-nice feedback. ^_^

That was very weird. And interesting.

And, secret, somehow. Hmm.

Mysterious.

It was sort of their big secret, wasn't it? This was one of those fics where the pups just sort of took it wherever they wanted, and I kind of hitched along for the ride. Which is always fun, even if it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.

Thank you so, so much for the feedback, hon! *snug*

That was. Wow. I couldn't help but think how it reminded me of Stephen King's books. Very good, just brilliant!

Oh, cool. I did want it to have that sort of underlying sense of DOOM that's in the best of Stephen King's stories, so I'm chuffed that you said that! Thank you, adelate! *snug*

I liked it a lot!

Thank you, sunshine. ^_^

Thankee! It was an intriguing idea to begin with, and one of those fun stories that just directed itself. ^_^

Glad it worked for you!

how awesome was that? freaking awesome! like, okay, the wonderfulness of connecting with his friends, but at the same time, the not so good feeling lurking in the background. weird, and very cool.
