Lazy Saturday on the (plotbunny) farm

[akainagi]

Doing some edits on past fics today. Mostly trying to work on my space_wrapped without getting distracted by WIP's or extraneous plotbunnies or prompt fills or the second season of Darker than Black. Damn my obsession with pretty men with other men and pretty women with other women and pretty animation.

So in the interest of not getting eaten by my plotbunnies, I am going to vent a few of them now:

Kirk/McCoy (AOS) – A mix of two requests over at buckleup_meme. One is that Jim and Bones adopt a teenager, the other is that Jim makes a deal with Pike who (somehow) helps Jim get custody of his kid in exchange for joining 'fleet. My bunny is that Jim is not 13/14 during the Tarsus genocide, but 17/18. Once he returns to Earth and recovers physically, he has to fight for custody of his only remaining cousin from Tarsus, who has no other relatives willing to take in him/her. Jim makes a deal with Pike that if Pike will help him with the custody (i.e. vouch for his character, etc.), Jim will join 'fleet once his cousin reaches a certain age (say 13 or so because Jim doesn't want to leave him/her alone during his/her more formative years). The result is that when Kirk joins 'fleet, he has a teenager in tow. I would love to see how having to raise an older child effected jim from ages 18-22 when he joins up, and how a teenaged dependent affects his relationship with Bones. Can you tell I love kid!fics?

Kirk/McCoy (AOS) - A very basic bunny. Isn't time travel like the best plot device ever? Jim and Bones are stuck in the 20th century. In fact, they are stuck there for so long that they begin the relationship they were unable to embark upon on the Enterprise (either because of regulations, because of fear of compromising their working relationship/frienship, etc.). Then they are rescued, and have to decide whether they will continue to be lovers, or whether they will go back to being "just friends." I'm sure you know which side I'm rooting for. Oh, the angst.

Kirk/McCoy (AOS) - A very very basic bunny. Jim and bones are stuck on a shuttle, drifting in space. Bones' worst nightmare. ("It's the fear of dying in something that flies!") Jim's not having the best day either. But neither of them can fault the company.

I'm looking forward to voting in the election on Tuesday. Hope all my fellow Americans are too. But first, the weekend!

You call it rambling, I call it freakin' genius! So many ideas!

you're to kind. these brainstorms are one of nice benefits of the whole bi-polar thing. Anyways sometimes I think I would like to write my own story but I'm thinking I maybe more of a prompt person than a story creator. I have so many ideas that I wish I could write. My wish right now is to read a story where Pike is captain of the enterprise and Jim comes back from a mission transformed into an infant/small boy and immediately identifies Pike as Daddy. He attaches himself to Pikes hip and won't let any one else tend to him. Its like a 100 on the cute scale just imagining Pike giving Jim a bath or putting him to bed etc. So hint hint if you need a new prompt I'm your go to person

I have a soft spot for Pike as a father figure. I've never seen it done literally in the J/B fandom, but there have been a few good ones in K/S.

I have a similar soft spot and yes I've seen it done with kidjim and either spock/bones have figured into the story. Any daddy pike stories seem to be where jim is actually still a child vs temporary transformation. I love my J/B but I really love my Pike/kirk in any formation
