I thought I lost you...
Feb. 24th, 2011 12:00 amSo remember how I mentioned that I saw The Eagle on Sunday with
splits_thesky and then that night we were up from 12am to 5am just coming up with AUs? Well, now is where I unload them all onto you!
First off, you have to realize that making up AUs is just something we do. The both of us tend to come up with the crackiest ships in the largest fandoms and the most canon ships in the smallest fandoms and neither of those get us very far, as you can imagine.
But before I go into the AUs, I have to impart some spoilers, because they ended up cropping up in the AUs A LOT and causing a lot of hilarity as the punchline/prompts.
( Well, they're spoilery if you can't know ANYTHING about the movie beforehand, although really, there is nothing really plot-related in here... or in the movie, actually )
Oh, and JGL = Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Channing Tatum's twice co-star (GI Joe and Stop-Loss!) and really good friend, according to GQ magazine. Marlon, in the one or two stories where he gets cast = Marlon Wayans, who was in GI Joe, too.
Anyway, onto the AUs we cooked up:
It started with us having just watched Primeval and being like, "Now I want Channing and Jamie to just be traversing time and space together. Maybe Jamie goes through Roman times, and the 60s and all that and then Channing learns his secret and then they go traveling together!" and then just spiraled from there. There's also some sub-AUs in here.
( Five hours of AUs we made up while expecting to fall asleep )
THAT TOOK TWO HOURS TO WRITE UP. HOLY JIZZ.
Also, these (1, 2 [I meant to say I feel bad for casting Channing with a dangerous occupation all the time and it came out as "He's always a dangerous object!"], 3, 4, 5) posters came out of that crazy AU-filled night, too. I'm pretty proud of them.
