The Sweetie Strikes Again, and New Writing Challenges

[przed]

So yesterday we're driving to a friend's place for brunch. To keep me alert, I was playing a Take That compilation I'd made, and it was on We All Fall Down, a B-side of Mark's. (This will be relevant.) All of a sudden, the Sweetie pipes up:

Sweetie: I see a Castiel vid.
Me: ::confused by apparent this non sequitar:: What?
Sweetie: The lyrics of this song, "We all fall down from the sky...Looking for a way back up again." It would make a good Castiel vid.
Me: ::starts laughing hysterically::
Sweetie: What?
Me: Oh my god, you're right. It would totally work. I can't believe you noticed that.
Sweetie: I've heard this song a lot.
Me: ::laughs again::
Sweetie: Supernatural and Take That. I blame you.
Me: ::keeps laughing::
Sweetie: Wow, did I blow your mind?
Me: A little.

I'm seriously tempted to try making that vid. In my copious amounts of spare time.


In other news, I've signed up for a couple of writing challenges.

After getting a couple of dodgy prompts I couldn't do anything with and taking last year off, I've signed up for picfor1000 again this year. My prompt would be challenging if Pros were my only fandom, but I should be able to do something with it for TT.

I also signed up for another trope_bingo card. It's not quite as inspiring as my last one, and every line has both an interesting prompt and one I've got no idea what to do with, but I'll give it a go.

huddle for warmth	immortality / reincarnation	food porn	friends to lovers / friends with benefits	character in distress
power dynamics	mind games	futurefic	au: supernatural	au: college / highschool
twenty-four hours to live	celebratory kiss	FREE ★ SPACE	genderswap	locked in
unrequited love / pining	language and translation	au: fairy tale / myth	sharing a bed	handcuffed / bound together
fake relationship	wingfic	au: alternate professions	coming out (of the closet)	rites of passage / coming of age

And the hc_bingo challenge is in the amnesty period, so I'm hoping to finally complete a line on my card. (I love pretty much every prompt on that one.)

Groovy!

Sometimes the goofy stuff ends up working. He's the one who found the song Gay Bar and then insisted I vid it. (He pretty much haunted my computer while I was doing that one to see if I had any new footage he could watch.)
