Rules/Fanwork Size Requirements | Deadlines | Opt-In Post | Contact A Mod
This is the place for teams of folks to meet up and get together to create lots of awesome Losers fanworks!
A few rules before we get started:
1. Please take a look at the rules, particularly the size requirements for bang-sized fanworks. If you have any questions, please comment over there or Contact A Mod.
2. Please use the subject lines. Put as much or as little information you have about your team, complement offering, or bang-sized work. Examples:
--Comics Bang: Artist looking for an author, dark and gory. Would like fanmix or graphics complements.
--Knitting Complements: 1-2 items for up to two bang-sized fanworks
--Fic Bang: Crack AU where the Losers are all snowmen, looking for wacky complements
--Podfic Complement: Willing to do a podfic complement for a bang; either a section of a fic bang or a related story to some other type of fanwork.
--Fanmix Bang: set of six albums for all the main characters based on individual arcs, want an art complement (covers).
--Haiku Complements: Offering sets of haiku complements to up to four art bangs.
--Art Bang: several panels featuring Jensen base jumping and Cougar watching through his scope. Any complement(s) or additional bang(s) would be great.
--Meta Bang: want to write a bang-sized meta but need help brainstorming in the comments
--Team Rock and Roll: 2 bangs and 3 complements on a rock band AU; willing to take on more fanworks of either size.
--Unknown: Want to create an unusual bang in tandem with one or more complement creators. (Include more details about what you might want to do in the comment itself).
--Unknown: Looking for a team to do pirates vs. ninjas in many formats.
--Plot bunny up for grabs: Losers as a professional baseball team (feel free to drop prompts or plot bunnies for others to pick up, but please make it obvious in the subject line you do not intend to do the fanwork yourself)
3. Items to address in your top-level comment:
--Type and size of fanwork you're creating (if you know)
--Type(s) of and size(s) of fanworks you're looking for (if you have a preference)
--Subject matter, genre, general idea, other details about your fanwork (if you know)
--What kind of team you're looking for: hands-off, cheerleading, interactive...
--Anything else you feel like including!
4. Cheerleading is a great thing - just a 'yay' or 'awesome idea' is a great boost to getting a big fanwork like this done. Feel free to cheer on individuals or teams or throw out ideas for other folks to take hold of.
5. This post is not any sort of official commitment to create a complement or big-bang-sized fanwork. It's an opportunity to generate ideas with fellow fans, collaborate, and have fun. Official sign ups will be May 8-15.
6. Have a great time! *turns on the disco ball*
Fanmix Bang: 5 AUs. seeking collaborators.
Date: 2012-05-01 05:22 pm (UTC)right now i'm thinking: zombies, SG team, jensen used to be an inception-verse architect, RED crossover, and killjoys-verse zonerunners. other possibilities are watchmen-verse superhero team after the events of the watchmen comic/movie, SHIELD team, cyberpunk, and some sort of space thing. my brain is a strange and wonderful place.
i will be happy with any type of complement. i'm just thrilled to be able to do the primary fanwork. i'd super love some sort of graphic or art as my coverart abilities are extremely basic.
previous mixes can be found at http://harpers-child.dreamwidth.org/tag/fanmix . excuse me while i go breathe into a paper bag now.

Date: 2012-05-01 06:40 pm (UTC)That's it, you're one of my new favourite people. And I will happily make some kind of complement for one or more of your mixes, probably fic or vid.

Date: 2012-05-01 05:30 pm (UTC)I wish I was better at art/graphics, because this idea sounds amazing and deserves all the art!!!
Hmmm. I wrote a Losers/SGA crossover for ante up that first year; I could probably write 2500 words of prequel, where the team is still an SG team. There's no Roque, though - if that's a problem, I can write a totally-from-scratch AU.
Re: Fanmix Bang: 5 AUs. seeking collaborators.
Date: 2012-05-01 06:17 pm (UTC)the bits i'll be writing will be slice-of-life things. maybe a riff/remix off of that? i don't think SGA will come into it at all.
p.s. your story was cute. the idea of teyla and jolene being exasperated mommies together makes me giggle.

Date: 2012-05-01 06:28 pm (UTC)(Thank you! I enjoyed writing that story a lot!)
Re: Fanmix Bang: 5 AUs. seeking collaborators.
Date: 2012-05-01 06:44 pm (UTC)RED- vikki is jensen's mom or mother figure. (if kid not with ivan.) that's all i have right now. cougar is terrified of touching jensen for several months when he finds out because he respects vikki a lot and doesn't want to die for touching her kid.
inception- jensen used to be an architect! for a team that was used to test experimental somnicin. there's only one other person alive/not in a coma left (two in arlington, one a vegetable). her name's rachel and she's a forger/extractor. they pretty much went on the run and gathered a bunch of dirt on the general in charge of the project and then blackmailed the US government into putting him in prison and granted them amnesty for crimes committed. he went back to the army. she's still a criminal. he calls her for help with max after events of the movie. the characters of inception will probably be offscreen or phonecall type things. (rachel owns a farm in the south of france with arthur and eames. eames thinks of her as a sibling.)
can you tell which of these i've thought about most?
Re: Fanmix Bang: 5 AUs. seeking collaborators.
Date: 2012-05-01 06:59 pm (UTC)I'm totally calling dibs on that RED one because Vikki and Cougar/Jensen! :D :D :D :D I AM ALL OVER THAT.
Also, I love Inception and that sounds like an amazing story - I hope someone picks up that and runs with it. A vid complement would be awesome.
