Ooooh, I like this...

Lifted from the silk-lined pocket of the estimable [personal profile] janedavitt... (slightly modified)

If you had me under your command (ooh er!) and could make me write anything, what would you love to see me write? I may not actually write any of these (but might, because I am currently trawling for new ideas), but I'm curious...

Fannish or original, but if fannish it would have to be The Sentinel (or ASJ, I guess) because that's all I write.

A Sentinelized version of the Master Piece Theater production An Irish RM. Staid Jim Ellison meets laid back Blair Sandburg:: lol:: Slash ensues....lol

Wouldn't even have to be Ireland...or I know The Englishman Who Went up a Hill But Came down a Mountain ex army JE meets up with barkeep Blair the Goat...
okay I'm done. No! I'm not; Hatari!
Are we seeing a pattern here?

LOL, hmmmm... Never seen Master Piece theatre; I saw the version of The Irish RM with Peter Bowles. I can sort of see that though I think it's more Mab than me. (o:

barkeep Blair the Goat. Strangely enough, I do see what you're saying here.

Hatari...? Now you've lost me.

So, we're talking costume drama; how about something a little more BBC; brooding lighting, long pauses, sexual tension Abounding. How are you on Jim n Blair in Flight of the Heron (Jim as Ewan Cameron of course)?

I shall put my mind to it (I was going to say I've never done historical but I did a Roman one and one set in the 60's so that would have been a lie, wouldn't it. (o:)

The Irish RM with Peter Bowles
That's the one. I have the whole series on video (of course we have only one working player) fell head over for Flurry the scamp.
Hatari!" John Wayne, Red Buttons , wrangling animals in Africa.
Flight of the Heron
I feel like I should know this, but it escapes me...
Tell me any tale and I'll be happy. I'm currently re-reading Chasing Rainbows it's wonderful.

Flight of the Heron was written by DK Broster in the 20's it's the tale of the strange relationship that develops between a Highland aristocrat fighting for Bonnie Prince Charlie and an English major during the 45 rebellion. There's a strong mystic aspect; a prophecy - one of them is going to die, but which one..,? It's buddy fiction at its best; deliciously, quietly slashy and the angst is extraordinary. If you've not read it I can't rec it too highly.

Jim n Blair wrangling animals in Africa...? Hmmm... can I reserve judgement on that? *g*

I'm massively (but quietly, there are others in the room (o:) squeeful that you like Rainbows; hopefully the first sequel should be out fairly soon (I'm wibbling about it a bit, because it's quite different from CR, slash of course, but much darker in tone and about to get darker still in part 3).

as long as it all comes out good at the end I'm cool.
Even death fics that reunite.

No one dies - well, no one you'd care about anyway. I love a good death fic myself - my dirty little secret. *g*
