And another one!

I see my nemesis getting a fic that I love
And I'm like, "Fuck you" 
I guess my 10k letter wasn't enough
I'm like, "Fuck you and fuck morbane, too"
Said, "If I was a long commenter, they woulda gamed for me"
Ha, now ain't that some shit?
(Ain't that some shit?)
And although there's pain in my chest
I still comment it's the best
And runs to coal to shout "Fuck you"

I've decided that I can absolutely cope with an "Any Characters" request, or a sign-up with zero optional details. Either would be a challenge, since I like assignments with defined prompts and preferences, but I can deal.

Just please, not both at the same time.

Anyone who asks for any characters and gives zero details literally wants anything. Therefore, they must also want a fic where all the characters sit together in a blank white room on folding chairs and discuss Friedrich Engels unfinished 1883 work, Dialektik der Natur, which attempted to apply Marx's idea of dialectical materialism to the natural world, while one of them, and only one, is holding a cup of coffee.

*unzips pants* Fuck yeah

God too bad I filled out my requests with characters and prompts. I'd love that lmfao

(Anonymous) 2023-10-23 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
That, uh, that might actually fill one of my prompts

Your prompt sounds amazing, coalie, may it get a cool fill! That's also either of the Sacred and Terrible Air requests to a tee. They're missing Jesper in the tagset for the full "blank white room with one (1) cup of coffee" ambience but they've got the dialectical materialism squabbling down pat.

Don't tease us, coalie!
Find a blank Any sign-up, treat it, tag it, and let us all enjoy this glorious fic!

I'd honestly read that

(Anonymous) 2023-10-23 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
That is so oddly specific that I absolutely love it and want to read it.

Anyone who asks for Any Characters (or a no-characters fandom) and has zero optional details is probably someone who knows nothing about exchange culture and is not at all invested in getting a specific story, so you can fearlessly do whatever you want.
