*beams and twirls you* Yeah I was going for an elemental magic thing and then I thought of Victorian Leverage and then The Cat said "BOTH!" and I was helpless :)

Are you planning on writing "canon", AU* or crossover (with what?)?: AU/fusion with Firefly
Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: I'm not sure yet, but probably multiple pairings
If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: Eliot/Mal (Eliot/Jayne? Eliot/Inara? Eliot/Kaylee? the guy is my fandom bicycle, so quite possibly all of them at some point), Hardison/Kaylee - maybe... Parker/River if I start feeling very bold >_<

[charlies_dragon]

Thanks for signing up and good luck with your fic :)

The fangirl in me is flailing with glee over a Leverage/Firefly style fic :D

[telaryn.livejournal.com]

Small adjustment - my co-author on one of my other Leverage fics wants in on this one.

Her LJ handle is hickumu...any problems if she piles on to my fic?

[charlies_dragon]

No, that's fine :)

[charlies_dragon]

Ooooooooooh!!! *thanks The Cat* Now you have to write this and share the pretty with us all *g*

There's a first time for everything right?

Are you planning on writing "canon", AU* or crossover (with what?)?:
Probably a AU/crossover with Sons Of Anarchy
Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: No clue as of yet
If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: No idea, sorry

Re: There's a first time for everything right?

[charlies_dragon]

If no one ever did anything for the first time, they'd never do anything, so don't worry (well, not too much anyway). If you need to ask anything, just leave a comment, PM me or email the mod address (on the profile page). I know what it's like doing a BigBang for the first time - my first was last year for startrekbigbang and ho boy did that take some doing!

Thanks for signing up and I hope your writing goes well :)

Re: There's a first time for everything right?

[ale-writes.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!! I'm hoping for the best

Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: Gen or het. Probably.
If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: Honestly don't know right now, but probably Eliot and/or Parker.

[kaylynnkie.livejournal.com]

Are adaptations allowed? ie if I wanted to write a fic based on a known story or fairy tale like Sleeping Beauty, could I do that?
