I'm currently frustrated, upset, angry, and fighting back the urge to cry for all of these reasons. So distraction memes! Please, PLEASE, please come and play with me.

Pick a trope from this list and provide a fandom/pairing and I’ll tell you something about the story I’d write for that combination (i.e. write a snippet from the story or write not!fic or tell you the title and summary for the story I would write)

1. road-trip
2. forced to share a bed
3. drunk!fic
4. huddling for warmth
5. pretending to be married/fake!dating
6. jealousy fic
7. amnesia
8. hurt/comfort
9. friends to lovers
10. truth or dare
11. forced proximity fic
12. fluff
13. apocalypse fic
14. curtain fic *
15. High School / College AU


Give me a character and I will tell you...

-How I feel about this character
-All the people I ship romantically with this character
-My non-romantic OTP for this character
-My unpopular opinion about this character
-One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.
-Something about them I consider true, even though it's only my head

*I have no idea what curtain fic is, so...if you pick that, you either have to explain to me or IDK expect a literal curtain somehow involved.

(All my current fandoms should be listed on my profile, as well as characters and ships, but feel free to shout out anything you want. If I'm familiar with it, I'll attempt it.)

Also, I owe people comments like crazy (Sunny you especially, I still promise that someday your inbox will be full of comments from me. Enough to drive you crazy.) And I'm sorry. I'm working on it, life just sucks and its getting in the way, and I have issues that don't help. But I love you all. I do.

I don't sleep well alone (pre-Logan/Veronica, set before the series started)

Sometimes she wonders how Logan talks her into these things. How easily he can convince her.

He spins words like Lilly, until it seems inevitable or almost like it was Veronica’s idea in the first place and he was just there cheering her on. He sounds nothing like Duncan who would never encourage this in the first place. Not without Logan and Lilly sitting on his shoulder, whispering in his ear what to do.

“A little alcohol won’t kill you.” He had said.

“You never pay any attention in health class do you?” She had asked and then she had took a swig of the bottle.

It had burned going down and she had coughed. (He hadn’t laughed, but he might as well have, with the expression on his face.)

“Only to the dirty parts,” He replied.

That was a bottle of tequila ago, when Veronica could still feel her cheeks and before she had stripped out of her pink sweater and down to her white tank top.

“Why aren’t you getting drunk with Lilly?” She asks. It had occurred to her before, but she hadn’t had enough liquid courage to actually say it.

Logan pauses, rummaging through his father’s liquor cabinet, and then turns back and smiles. “She’s going through a ‘I-hate-Logan’ phase.” He says.

“Uh-oh, someone’s in tro-u-ble.” Veronica sing songs.

Logan laughs and turns back to the alcohol. He grabs scotch this time and she knows this will not end well. She’s pretty sure she won’t make it home and she’ll end up leaving a babbling message on the machine talking about Lilly and her Logan problems and spending the night at the Kanes.

She’ll probably end up passed out on Logan’s bedroom floor instead.

“I’m always in trouble,” Logan says sitting down in front of her, “But that’s why I called you. You don’t hate anyone.”

“That’s not true.” Veronica says. It comes out very loud. She thinks she might be offended.

“Tell me one person you hate. Name one person.” He grins.

“I…”

Her mind is blank. She blames the alcohol. Stupid alcohol, she thinks, drinking some of the scotch Logan had offered her.

Logan laughs again and she wonders if she said that out loud.

“Deputy Lamb!” She says suddenly, almost falls off the guest house bed, when her arms flail as she tries to emphasize her meaning. Logan’s hands steady her and his eyes dance with amusement and something else she doesn’t know. Sadness maybe. (Deep down, Logan’s sad, she knows that.) Longing maybe, but she doesn’t know what for. Maybe lower alcohol tolerance so he could feel like her.

“Deputy Lamb,” She repeats, “He’s smug and smarmy and a total idiot. And really, a lot of other words I can’t remember right now. But none of them are good.”

“I’m sure they’re not.” Logan nods in a false solemn manner.

“See, I can hate people.” She says. She moves so she’s no longer at the foot of the bed, instead crawling up to the headboard next to him. She grabs one of the many pillows (jeez, how many pillows do rich people really need anyways?) and pulls it to her chest. “I’m not the Pope or anything.”

“You would look funny in the hat.” He says.

She had lowered herself down on the bed, curled up, and was comfortable, though she doesn’t remember doing any of that. She realizes several minutes later that Logan’s voice had come from across from her and he was lying down too.

He’s staring at the ceiling when she opens her eyes and she thought she saw something wrong with the color of his cheek when she looked too close. She almost reached out to touch it, but she stopped herself just in time.

“Why didn’t you call Duncan?” She asks quieter this time.

“I don’t know,” Logan says, “You just…seemed like a better choice.”

Veronica smiles, sinking deeper into the bed. It’s much more comfortable than Logan’s floor but her father was going to be really pissed tomorrow.

She feels Logan’s hand on her cheek, pushing back her long hair, before she drifts off to sleep.

(Her friend needed her, she’ll tell her father tomorrow. I’m sorry, but it was important, she’ll say. I’d do it again, grounding and all, she’ll tell Logan.

None of it will be a lie.)

oh gods

Logan needing to experience through Veronica feelings and sensations he can't get to anymore - because even when she was innocent she was still full of fire and she must have been so beautiful to him then, so bright and happy and welcoming to the world.

(I now have headcanon that part of Logan's anger at Veronica in the early episodes were about losing her. The girl that was Lilly's best friend and wasn't fucked up like the rest of them and maybe - just maybe - represented some reprieve. Stood as a symbol of everything he lost before it was given to him. And then she went and made herself hard and strong and he couldn't hide from his own wounds when he looked at her anymore.)

what the hell. what. did. you. do.

Ummm....Sorry? But also not really sorry, because I totally take that as a compliment. But I will point you in upupa_epops's direction because she was the one who prompted it. XD

I'm really glad you liked it and that that part stuck out to you. The idea of pre-show Logan/Veronica friendship is so fascinating to me. I mean we got flashbacks of it, even of it dissolving, but not enough. Never enough. And I agree, I love the idea of Logan being fascinated and drawn to the innocence and fire and life that Veronica brings into their group in the beginning. And that also being one of so many reasons he hated her so much in the beginning. In the end he didn't just lose Lilly, he lost everything that Veronica represented too.

And basically all of your head canon is perfect and I've now adopted it too. And I think you might be a little to blame for all these feelings too. Because the idea of her being a symbol to him, that had been crushed and altered and made into something new, something harder and with jagged edges instead of soft ones--It never even occurred to me. So basically, blame all around. :D
