Because I'm a sick fucking freak, that's why

[gwyn]

So, um... can anyone think of an even remotely plausible scenario that would put Dom in a... um... cage match, especially an... um... forced cage match, like in Gladiator and the Angel episode The Ring? And... uh... then Brian would have to, you know, rescue him or something?

Yes, I own my sick fucking freakiness.

Also, GIPpiness to show off this nifty icon from spasticat!

And also gratuitous pre-pimpiness for lierdumoa's new Fast and the Furious vid to Bush's The Chemicals Between Us. She let me see her beta copy yesterday and oh wow, it's gonna be so great and I can't wait to see her final tweaks. She's hoping to post it soon, so keep an eye on her LJ. If you like these boys, you will love this vid (though now I have wimpy vidder competition anxiety and realize how sad and lame my own Stripped vid is. Sigh).

will send details because I want to see this/write this and it's been playing in my brain for weeks.;

I wondered where my brain had gone -- now I know that you took it. (Not that I mind...)

Re: yes.

Aaauuugggghhhh -- this is terrible! I keep wanting to write things after you've already been working on them! I mean I know it's got limited story potential and all, but still!

I like to think of it as great minds [G}.

But seriously, this hasn't even gotten out of the in my head, jotted a few notes stage. I have not started writing anything...if it helps, the whole premise is loosely built on M7's inmate 78 plot...only Dom and Brian stumble on illegal smuggling by accident. And seriously..that's aobut as far as I've gotten ...

Um...ok...how about:
Dom has to find a new fence for the truck goodies, and goes to see a guy who's some kind of underworld big shot--runs illegal cage fights, money laundering, etc., etc.--and when he gets there to see the guy, there's a misunderstanding about what he's there for, and mass confusion abounds, and he ends up in the cage? And, uh, Brian's there because of some police connection, or knows about the guy from police files and goes haring off after Dom because there's a notorious fatality rate for the fights, or...something? And once he's there, rescuing ensues...or...um...there's fighting (c'mon--there's gotta be some fighting!) and then Brian's the one who figures out a way to get them out of there without getting killed?

See, this is why I don't write fic: I can't plot my way out of a wet paper bag.

You may now commence with the Mocking Laughter.

No, actually, this is not bad at all! I kept trying to think of him in Mexico -- but then why/how Brian would come to rescue him just made no sense, and this might put it before the ending of the movie, so... there's more potential for Brian's involvement, which I couldn't make sense of. And it's not like he couldn't go to Mexico for a new fence, considering the level of crime there.

Good lord, yes. Really scary stuff, too. Really, really scary.

It's not bad? Huh. I'm absurdly flattered that you'd say that. :)

I like mackie's idea, except that I think part of the confusion should be that Dom has to fight Brian. Mmmm, angst. "I can't fight him! He's my UST!"

"I can't fight him! He's my UST!"

This totally cracked me up!

I know nothing about these characters, but is there a way for them to travel to Las Vegas, get involved in a backroom poker game gone astray and then have to bet on say a double or nothing cage match?

[gwyn-r.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... very interesting. My big problem is that I understand nothing nada zilch about gambling, and I don't even know what betting on double or nothing for a cage match means! Does that mean they would be in it, or just watching?

[barkley.livejournal.com]

My big problem is that I don't write what I mean. *g* So they're at this high stakes poker game, and they lose a lot of money. And then they bet on say pulling a high card out of a deck, and they lose more. And then they beg to bet double or nothing on the next one (because they don't have the money) and the guy they owe money to calls them on their bluff and says "If I win, you have to fight in my cage match against Big Mean Guy." and so they lose and then there is a cage match.

The end.

(This is why I don't write. *g*)

On Saturday I'm spending five minutes pointing and laughing at you.

*G* J/k. I will like anything you write, of course. But speaking of Saturday, you wanna email me or sumpin?
