[quote="VampireNaomi"]An idea was born in another thread, so we decided to give it a try. The point is to write names of Aladdin characters on paper, randomly choose two, and then write a pairing fic with those two characters. It's fun and also a great challenge for those who like writing. Here are some simple guidelines that I thought might be helpful: 1. The word limit is 100 - 5,000. You can write a drabble if you want to, but the fic shouldn't get too long even if you want to include some character development. As Calluna said, we also want to see people finish. 2. You can use mind control, magic, alcohol, and pretty much any kind of insane plot device you can come up with. They're probably going to be needed with most of the pairings. 3. The depth of the pairing is up to you. That is, the characters don't have to confess their love to each other and start making out. The feelings can be only hinted at, or even one-sided. It could be just sex, too. 4. Don't worry about being coherent. While the fic might be more fun to read if everyone is more or less in character, the pairings are going to be too bizarre for that. Do your best and have fun. :) 5. There's no time limit, so don't hurry. You can also take the challenge any time you want. Oh, and nobody is going to kill you if you sign up but don't manage to write anything. 6. Please let everyone else see the fic. If you have any other suggestions, go ahead and post them. Authors who took the challenge/Pairings: VampireNaomi: Mozenrath/Rasoul Calluna: Iago/Jasmine Salukfan: Sa'luk/Sadira Emmlei: Abu/Mechanikles[/quote]

It took a little while to come up with something that made sense. Hopefully, it'll be entertaining; I'm insanely rusty!

If you really manage to write Abu/Mechanikles and put even some sense into it, you're amazing.

I haven't thought about it, but I really should get around to finishing it. Might help get me through a creative block I've put up around myself. *putters*

I keep getting ideas, but then as I work on them they start going off in a completely different direction. Maybe this is the canon trying to tell me something.

I worked on it for a while (okay, so I planned it and didn't write anything
) and then I stopped writing entirely for a while... and then I got distracted by another idea and left this one behind. I swear, it shall be written some day.

Anyone still working on this? I got about 2,600 words done but then I got to the part where Mozenrath has to get it on with Rasoul in order to make a spell work, and I'm stumped. I can't make myself write it.

I REFUSE TO USE THIS CHALLENGE AS AN EXCUSE TO WRITE JASMINE/SADIRA. I REFUSE TO. YOU HEAR THAT, EVIL PLOTBUNNY IN MY HEAD? I REFUSE TO WRITE IT!

I *am* working on this... but not too hard.
I just spend way too much time floating around WDW and not nearly enough focused on this (or any other aspect of my life...). But yeah, it'll get done.

I can at least put a disclaimer for the challenge one! I'm hoping the other one won't come and bite me. We'll see.

I finished the first draft with two different endings (one of which is a joke), but as I was proof reading it, I realised how much it sucked. So, I'm going to rewrite it and completely turn the mechanics around. I don't even know why I attempted the first version in the first place. Now my problem is that the word limit is getting dangerously close and I'm still not even nearly finished.
Hope you have better luck, Emmlei!

Okay, I've been taking too long on both my main story and the challenge, so I'm going to take my own advice and set up an appointment to write them. I'm going to write a little everyday and expect my challenge fic by next Friday. Thank goodness there's a max word limit or I'll be taking forever.

I threw out what I started writing because I realized it was too similar to something in canon. Apparantly my pairing isn't enough of a crack pairing.
I've got a lot of the dialogue I want to do I just need a plot that makes some kind of sense...

I'm still working on the main one. I'm finding I can be wordy if I'm not given a max guideline. So once I get to the AbuxMechanicles one, it'll be written up pretty quick. I more or less have it in my head.
Problem is getting it on paper....
