FSC: Day 15 (fin)

Day Fifteen

In your own space, create your own challenge. What’s something you want to see more people doing in fandom? Is there something fun you’ve tried that you think other people would enjoy if they gave it a go? Dare your friends to try it out, and have fun with it.

______________

Many have already challenged us all to review/comment more on others' work.  This is a fine idea.

I'm not the type to suddenly issue a challenge, however, I will take this opportunity to throw out an idea which has occasionally surfaced in my brain: Would anyone be interested in a Tolkien darkfic/angst/horror/etc challenge at some point?  I don't know what a proper name would be, but basically an "everything is bad and it all hurts" type thing.

Yeah I know I'm full of surprises and no one would ever have expected a query of that particular nature from me.

On that happy note, I hope everyone has enjoyed this lovely little challenge!  =D

I would! At least the angst/darkfic part, I'm not so sure I'm good at Tolkien horror.

If I get to kill off elves and make people sob, it's all good. Well, except for the fact that then I get random comments four months later where I forget that was the point, and momentarily panic when the comment starts with "You made me cry!"

Sweet, gentle Huin wants dark? Surely not?

:D Seriously, that's a great idea and I would be up for it.

Mmmaybe? I tend to find the Silmarillion existentially depressing enough as it is. I might torture some characters if you catch me in the right mood, but generally I need some hope with my doom.

I only got through about a third of the challenge -- I wonder whether it's still worth trying to finish. And there are still people's entries that I want to comment on.

I wonder what inspired that. :D

In other words: Yes, yes, hell yes!

Me! (Though not so much on character death for me, and I also need a little bit of hope. I'm not sure whether that's a yes or a maybe.)

The Túrin Turambar Memorial Challenge? :-D

[shadowbrides.livejournal.com]

ooooh yesss. I think I could cook up some good torture scenes.

Count me in and pass the tourniquet.

I don't know what a proper name would be, but basically an "everything is bad and it all hurts" type thing.

I think THAT should be the proper name.

BRING THE PAIN!
