Sometimes I wander into areas of the internet and find things best left undiscovered.

From UrbanDictionary.com:

Sylar: A Sylar is similar to an Abe Lincoln. When someone has passed out, shave their pubes and stick them to their eyebrows, forming something very similar to a monobrow, thus making them look iconic bad-ass Sylar from the TV show Heroes.

I don't know which is worse, to have this done to you or to be the perpetrator. Seems like a lose-lose for everyone involved. Oh, and I'm not responsible for anything you find if you look up what an Abe Lincoln is.

What about a badfic meme, you guys? The silliest prompts you can come up with, all anon?

Basically I'm looking for a way to get someone to write Lyle/Maya or any of my other total crackships.

ETA: PRETTY BANNERS. One's from the

sylaire_awards and one's from the feedback frenzy for

heroes_exchange.

You probably can tell which is which...

I'D TOTALLY DO IT. :D :D :D :D

INORITE!

EXTRA SMILEYS FOR YOU :D :D :D

What about a rare pair meme? Force people to leave all their regular ships behind and delve into the unknown!

Do you think that people would actually prompt and write a lot? I'd be all over that, but I only know two or three others who might hop on that bandwagon.

I think they might. People always request the craziest stuff at exchanges/kink memes and when it's anonymous I people feel less shy about trying their hand at characters they've never written before.

I think it could be fun! :D

So do we need to disallow pairings that aren't rare, like Sylar/Claire or Peter/Claire or Mohinder/Sylar? I need to figure out what pairs are considered rare and what aren't.

But seriously if I can get even one more Haitian/Elle fic or something out of this, this would be totally worth the effort.

Yes, otherwise it'll just be like a regular kink meme where it's 90% mylar (notthere'sanythingwrongwiththat).

I think the main ones to disallow are: Mohinder/Sylar, Matt/Mohinder, Sylar/Peter, Peter/Nathan, Peter/Claire, Sylar/Claire, Sylar/Elle, Sylar/Luke.

Then you have stuff like Mohinder/Peter and Mohinder/Elle which are more active than say, Sylar/Lyle, but have never been very big. It's up to you if you want them included.

I have no idea on Nathan/Claire and Noah/Claire, are they het rare pairs?

OMG! This'll be a blast! ♥

What if it was a rule like "If they have their own comms with more than X number of members, then they aren't allowed"? I think that way there's some sort of standard to go by.

Sounds good to me!

I'm having a hard enough time writing GOOD fic, I don't think I can spare attention to do BAD fic.

But the whole point is that it doesn't require attention! :P Who needs grammar when you can have Lyle/Maya?

I'm pretty sure I could rock a badfic meme. Who cares about verb tense when you have crackships!

(I want to make someone write Mr. Muggles/Turtle)

I... I don't even...

Is that slash or het?

Slash? I assumed Turtle was male.

I don't even know how you can tell with reptiles.

Also, don't google "turtle genitalia" if you're suddenly curious about how to determine the sex. Just... a word to the wise.

Speaking from experience?

Recently gained experience, too. I thought I might be able to come back with a definite "girl or boy" answer.

As it turns out I had my safesearch off and saw a lot more uncut phalluses than I anticipated.

Ouch. image searching with safety off is like riding in the car without your seatbelt. Daring, but not always a good idea.

Congrats on your awards!

I am seriously stuck on something I'm working on at the moment, so I don't know if I'll be able to play on a bad fic or rare pare meme type deal-y.

Maybe you'll need a mental break every so often...

Also if you need a beta for something, let me know. I'll be there with bells on.

Thanks, I'll probably take you up on that.

Congrats on the award! :)

I'm very scared now of that Sylar thing. That goes beyond disturbing.

Re: badfic. Does that just refer to cracktastic plot lines with rare pairs, or does the fic have to show that I utterly fail at spelling/grammar/sentence structure, etc.?
