Of Dollhouse and plot bunnies...
Feb. 22nd, 2009 07:40 pmI watched Dollhouse 1x02 and my interest hasn't weaned at all, quite the contrary.

Unrelated now; for the first time since January - which isn't that long for me, considering - I've been visited by the beginning of the shadow of a maybe potential plot bunny for a new fic.
I can't take credit, though. I received a new feedback for my Merlin story yesterday - and isn't it a lovely surprise when you get comments for one of your fics month/s after they were posted? - and at the end, it was mentioned that it could be interesting to see Merlin's side of the story, which made me go "dude, that's... a good idea! A very good idea. It would be great to see what was going on with Merlin during the fic!" I know it might sound stupid since I'm the one who wrote the fic in the first place, but I'd never really thought of Merlin's POV. Not in a way that would make me tell his story, I mean.
Like I was saying in my own comment, I have no idea whether I'll write it - or finish it if I do start it - but at least a seed has been planted and I'm thinking 'what if'? Which is nice :-)
Well. To be fair, I am visited by plot bunnies every now and then, only those would be more of the mayflies variety in that they live but for a short moment? Like, when watching today's episode of Dollhouse, I was thinking of a SPN type of AU/redux fic where Dean would be one of the actives and Sam would either be his handler or our Sam trying to get Dean back... except he'd need to find Dean's 'real memories' and imprint him with them before he could save him and everything... So it's not like I'm fic'ally idle exactly, it's just that I usually can't muster the energy to go and write the fics that go with the ideas... Just one of those things, I guess.
