because I have so many better things to do...

[oiran]

...I feel I must do a meme. Swiped from shrift:

College!Clark & Business!Lex

Clark: Look at me! All collegiate and wholesome!
Lex: Rrrowr! Oops, I mean, let me find you a blatantly female date, platonic best friend o'mine.
Clark: I'm baffled by the attention I get for my looks!
Lex: I'm jealous of everyone Clark interacts with!
Author: This story seems kind of familiar. Didn't we already do this? Or someone did. Several someones, even.
Mr. Glove: *leaning over Author's shoulder* Is this another story about Clark and Lex having sex for the first time?
Lex: Well, yeah, but this one has added Business!


Primary Sequel

Evil Ex-Fiancee: I'm plotting my revenge!
Author: Huh. I thought you were gone for good.
Evil Ex-Fiancee: Everyone else thought I was evil, so I stuck around to see if you'd take the hint.
Author: It's so funny. I mean, I didn't give you a second thought at the time.
Evil Ex-Fiancee: Well, I'm ready to play any time you are.
Franny: I'm all grown up!
Clark: Dang. There's not going to be any first-time sex in this one, is there?

Dana's Birthday Story:

Lex: I hate this.
Clark: I hate it more.
Lucas: Woo-hoo! This is great!

Chloe Summer Story:

Chloe's Low-Cut Top: I have the best job!
Lionel: Here, live in this LuthorCorp-owned apartment in Metropolis while you work for the Planet.
Chloe: (over pounding dance music) Clark, is that you?
Red!Clark: Yo, Chloe. I'm too sexy for my shirt.
Chloe: Well, ditto.

CLex Historical Fic

Lex: I look very dandy in my cravat.
Clark: You make everything sound so sexy. I want you.
Lex: How about an assignation in the stable?
Clark: I'll meet you there.
Chloe: I'm investigating Lex's dad!
Lana: I'm doing good works! Nell's trying to find me a rich husband!
Author: Yeah, whatever. Meanwhile, back in the barn...

And as for you, dawns56, you're a sweetie pie ;)

lol. My favorite:

Dana's Birthday Story:

Lex: I hate this.
Clark: I hate it more.
Lucas: Woo-hoo! This is great!

Lex and Clark are so cute when they're grumpy.

[velvetglove.livejournal.com]

They're beyond grumpy! I think they're actually somewhere between enraged and shellshocked. They didn't like starring in Dana's last birthday story at all ;)

Lex: I hate this.
Clark: I hate it more.
Lucas: Woo-hoo! This is great!

Dana: *evil laugh*

[velvetglove.livejournal.com]

Author: Dana exerts a powerful force.
Clark & Lex: Be strong! Resist!
Lucas: Woo-hoo! Submissive alien tail!

[twigged.livejournal.com]

Dana: Lucas, be mine!!

College!Clark & Business!Lex

Lex: Well, yeah, but this one has added Business!

It's the added business that makes want to read it *g*; not the sex and veiled jealousy.

CLex Historical Fic

Author: Yeah, whatever. Meanwhile, back in the barn...

Yes, the barn, ... and cravats!

We'll be here when you are done.

I'm pretty sure everyone is in agreement that what the College!Clark and Business!Lex genre needs are more powerpoint presentations and sensitivity training sessions and board meetings.

Doing research on the men's clothing (so I could have them take it off realistically) gave me a total fetish for Victorian menswear. I lost interest in all plot points and the story wants to be nothing more than endless Barn!Porn. I feel like I want to complete the story part, too, but it's not as fun to write ;)

[ladydey.livejournal.com]

Not enough can be said about the righness of Barn!Porn. Who are we to argue with your muse - 'Bad muse only wanting the porn, bad. No cookie for you'. *g*

And just so you know, it's not a story until there are powerpoint presentations and copiers breaking down. I am sure Lex is just as sexy clearing a paper jam as he is drinking blue bottled water. ;> It's all the bending.

[stone-princess.livejournal.com]

I love you.

But...

I'm not seeing anything on htis list that looks like Clark being bound with kryptonite and ruthlessly used and abused and then later comforted by a bad Lex who is now suddenly good. Is there some reason this isn't on the list?

[velvetglove.livejournal.com]

This is far from a complete list. The real list has about 30 stories on it. The real list intimidates me.

[stone-princess.livejournal.com]

You should write day and night until you finish it. Then come to Seattle and play with me.

[velvetglove.livejournal.com]

I already do that! I write day and night! Can I come play with you even if I haven't finished?

[stone-princess.livejournal.com]

Yes, all you have to do is show up and I'll let you in.

[jetis.livejournal.com]

You know, I always forget that people actually see what I write. I like to live in my small bubble where I write in my livejournal simply to amuse myself and pass time.

But no matter.

Thank you for the compliment. Honestly, I can't help gushing. I've deduced that it must be a genetic disease that makes me whimper and dote over people who fascinate me.

[velvetglove.livejournal.com]

No, thank you for the compliment.

And it's wrong to admit it, but I do aim to fascinate ;)
