Trope Bingo

[kelly_chambliss]

Even though I missed Rounds 1 and 2, decided to sign up for Round 3 of trope_bingo, because the idea intrigues me. Here's my card:

mind control	au: alternate gender norms	epistolary	sex pollen	metafiction
amnesia	transformations	genderswap	celebratory kiss	au: historical
twenty-four hours to live	language and translation	FREE ★ SPACE	au: apocalypse	in vino veritas / drunkfic
poor communication skills	kidfic	handcuffed / bound together	character in distress	trapped in a dream
bodyswap	bets / wagers	rites of passage / coming of age	fork in the road	au: supernatural

Hmm. I didn't love it at first, but the more I look at it, the more ideas I get. In fact, there are several options that I really like (they just aren't all in a nice bingo arrangementt). But you only have to write one story in a year in order to qualify for Round 4 (I like to keep my options open), so I'll definitely be able to manage that. And who knows, I might make it to a bingo. I may branch out into fandoms other than HP, and I may challenge myself by trying to write the square that, at the moment, I find least interesting (which is probably "trapped in a dream").

Oh, gosh. I'm so tempted. Only... for Foyle's War. That's so wrong, I can't even contemplate it. Except that I am. Contemplating it.

I've tried to comment twice on LJ with no luck. I thought I might do better here. The premise for this community/game is interesting, and the assortment of tropes/prompts certainly could lead to some wonderful stories. Personally, I find "trapped in a dream" to be an intriguing image. ;D Good luck! I hope you enjoy it.
