*hangs head* I went ahead and signed up for hc_bingo because I have NO WILLPOWER AT ALL.

disappearing	cages	driven to insanity	mutation	fever / delirium
de-age (mental)	ghosts and hauntings	wings (always there) *FILLED*	agoraphobia	fear of flying
captivity	arachnaphobia	WILD CARD	embarrassment	accidents
nervous breakdown	werewolves: accidental mating for life w/ inappropriate person	caught in a robbery	rape / recovery	bullet wounds
domestic abuse (emotional)	self-harm	alcoholism	undercover: having to participate in illegal / hurtful activity	fear of heights

... wow. Some of these are going to be hard for me. XD Actually, I think some of them might be damned near impossible, without tipping over into a level of woobification that is really, really hard for me to write.

The idea of trying to do some of these in SGA cracks me up utterly. (On the other hand, a few of them are made for it!)

I got to the bingo square about werewolves and lost it. Certainly gives a new twist on the phrase "coyote ugly" XD

Wings are an h/c prompt?? hooow??

(I say you go parody on the + SGA = LOL prompts!)

...otherwise. I am. Erm. Tempted. To sign up myself. Well, I've been having trouble with inspiration, and these prompts are pretty classic...

[sholio]

I KNOW, RIGHT? And then there's the wings. And the entire bottom line of the card, which I'm thinking about combining into one giant woobie fic. The only thing that doesn't fit is the fear of heights. Otherwise, though -- Woobie Character A's abusive boyfriend forced him into the seedy life of an undercover prostitute mobster something-or-other, and now he's lying to his friends and having to kill people! And he's had to turn to alcoholism to deal with it! And cutting! And then a werewolf mated with him. (Oops. Wrong line.)

An undercover prostitute who only works on high-rises!

[sholio]

Some of the other cards contained tentacles. I seriously want to see an h/c tentacle fic.

I'm not sure if wingfic is inherently an h/c idea -- I kinda had the same thought -- but I think every wingfic I've read has been total h/c. And usually John Sheppard. Except the one I wrote with Naye. :D

You should! We can suffer together! Or our characters can suffer. Or something.

[sholio]

That's perfect! And, my god, an undercover prostitute actually would give us pretty much the entire second-from-the-bottom line as well.

Why oh why did I get rid of all my good h/c icons?

Now I am ded too, hope you're happy

OH THE HUMANITY! Won't someone please think of the children? D:

Something tells me that Woobie Character A developed his fear of heights when his abusive boyfriend got violent one night and accidentally broke his wing. But thinking he deserved it, he didn't mention it to anyone, and it only came up when the sociopath boyfriend accidentally shoved him off a cliff, and for the first time in his life, he couldn't fly.

He would have died if it weren't for the werewolf.

I would like to point out, in a completely non-pimping way: H/C Tentacle Fic (http://greyias.livejournal.com/3323.html)

[sholio]

I should have known ... *runs off to look*

[chaps1870.livejournal.com]

Right there with you.

*iz dedder*

[sholio]

... I think I strained something laughing at "... accidentally broke his wing".

And then he was held prisoner in a CAGE FULL OF SPIDERS. A ~HAUNTED~ CAGE. Which caused him to mutate (as one does) and go insane, which is hardly surprising at this point.

[sholio]

No, wait! The evil boyfriend is a mad scientist, who mutated him into a half-human, half-spider! (Who also turns into a wolf, due to the whole ... werewolf thing. Which they don't talk about.)

ETA: Thus leading to the mental de-aging. All he does now is huddle in a corner and play with crayons with all eight seven (woops, forgot about the broken one) legs.

[greyias.livejournal.com]

Wait wait wait... we've forgotten about the wings! Did the evil mad scientist boyfriend stick some fly DNA in there just to mess with him? (Also, is Character Woobie A played by Jeff Goldblum? That would explain a lot.) Of course, having spider DNA would just complicate things. He'd keep having to resist the urge to trap himself in a web. Oh, poor Mutated Woobie A.

Thus leading to the mental de-aging. All he does now is huddle in a corner and play with crayons with all eight seven (woops, forgot about the broken one) legs.

XD The silver lining to this truly tragic story is that with all of those extra appendages, he was able to create some truly beautiful works of art, the best ever made with Crayola. Sadly, just before Woobie was about to be recognized for his work, evil mad scientist boyfriend tore up all of his drawings in a fit of jealous rage. Then Woobie ate some lemon chicken.

[sholio]

Now I'm very sad that there is no Lemon Chicken square. Because there really should be!

[sholio]

Signing up, you mean?

I was looking for inspiration, but I think I'm mostly getting amusement from the card ... :D

[greyias.livejournal.com]

Every fandom should learn the deadly potential of poultry slathered in citrus. *nods*

[tielan]

Wah. I wanted Wings and Werewolves! (And I got neither.)

Actually, I was looking at my card and thinking that they'd taken out all the cracky themes. *sigh*

[sholio]

Darn it, and I wanted something more like your card, with the traditional stuff and less of the crack! (Though I don't envy you the "character is shown the error of his ways" square. OH GOD, that trope!) Most of my squares aren't really inspiring me much at all.

Re: *iz dedder*

[greyias.livejournal.com]

I was just re-reading this and I had to point out

CAGE FULL OF SPIDERS. A ~HAUNTED~ CAGE.

Ghost Spiders! This week on SyFy! XD

[tielan]

Yeah, I'm dreading the "error of his ways" one. I'm wondering if you can be non-preachy about that in under 500 words.

...and I signed up for kink_bingo too.

Why yes, I am a sucker for punishment.

*goes back to writing the team's meeting with the Genii*

I'd suggest swapping bingo cards, but half the point IMO is to write outside the comfort zone...

[sholio]

*laughs* Yeah, I thought about it for a nanosecond or so, but it is probably defeating the purpose to keep trying 'til you get a card you like. Besides, if I had yours I'd probably be complaining about the bullying and abuse and zombie squares anyway. *g*

Given how far along I got on Cliche Bingo, my odds of managing so much as a line of this one are probably not great, anyway.

[rydra_wong]

*g*

I was just coming over to check that you knew about hc_bingo.

[sholio]

*laughs* Yeah, I am powerless to resist it, apparently!

[chaps1870.livejournal.com]

I'm making myself work on my kink card before I start on this one, but I've got some ideas sprouting.

[frith_in_thorns]

But you can use the free square in the centre for that!
