Posts: 658 Location: Washington (not DC) July Challenge Jun 2nd, 2011 at 3:41pm Print Post For July I'm putting out two possibilities - One: Plot untwist (popular in other fandoms) Take an episode and with a random event or single decision, undo the plot of the story. (BTW, I've done an L&C tNoS plot untwist in 50 words.) OR Two: key word - fireworks If you only have one solution to a problem - you're not trying. IP Logged

Mind like a steel trap, but dumb dumb DUMB! July challenge?!? I'm still working on getting Straker back into his Nehru and out of that little black dress and the pumps! Oooooooh, I like the untwist plot thing, but define 'fireworks' you mean a mindbending (interesting term, that) incident? Or you want Alec to launch molotov cocktails and rockets and sparklers? Or Straker to have his office remodelled by Martha Stewart? " Pink satin covered desk chair? Have this woman imprisoned again, now! But, Commander, it's a good thing!" Or Tim Gunn? "That simply won't do, Commander, that jumpsuit is SO Saturday Night Fever! Make it work!" I need details, Librarian! IP Logged

Remember, this is the man that married Mary! Mind like a steel trap, but dumb dumb DUMB! I am so not going there! Here is my idea, In CCAOK, Ed tells Alec to handle it and stays with Mary at the hospital. That would entail a re-write of the entire series! She would have stayed with him. Now that would be canon derailment! Never mind, someone else thought of that. Back to the drawing board. What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged
