darchildre: second doctor playing solitaire (bored now)
[personal profile] darchildre
I have been feeling kinda blah for the last couple days and this morning I realized that part of it is because I don't currently have a Story. Most of the time, I have a persistent daydream story that plays in the back of my mind while I'm doing other things and that I can actively think about when I'm bored. But the inspiration for the last one has now dried up and I'm left replaying bits of the story that I've "seen" dozens of times already and I need a new one.

Most of my stories have their origins in fandom of some sort, even if I end up filing the serial numbers off and the story becomes wildly AU. I don't currently have a fannish obsession either, which is probably why I don't have a new story.

Thus - friends, do you want to rec me a fannish obsession? I don't actually need a fandom, per se, though consumable fanworks are of course definitely a plus. I'm kinda in the mood for fantastical-leaning-towards-high-fantasy, but I'm open to recs of all kinds. Bonus points for compelling villains (because of course, have you met me?).

What are you guys into that could produce fun daydream stories?

For sheer daydreams, I've been enjoying an A/B/O AU As the Summer Rains Fall. It's delightfully overwrought and melodramatic, and it is one of those stories that I'll happily daydream different scenarios for -- how I would write a happy end here, or extra angst there. Not stories I'd ever write or could make work as a serious narrative, but daydreams I indulge in or stories I tell myself as I'm falling asleep.
