BRAINSTORM POST
I've had three people comment recently that they are stuck for ideas on this challenge. We can't have that!

This post is for anyone who wishes to brainstorm ideas, post bunnies or simple prompts and generally talk it out in the hopes it will spark an idea.

Have at it, and good luck!

The theme is Weather/Vacation.

	Okay I have a rather vague and not very detailed bunny, but maybe it will appeal to someone who can fill in the blanks! How about something to tie in with the comic? There's a Rage storyline about a huge storm or heatwave or flood or something, insert evil villain comic storyline here and tie that in with B/J somehow... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks! It's pretty vague but I hope someone can do something clever with it. I think it'd be fun! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Uh, I have dozens of bunnies which I'd never have the time to write, but I'm always careful with sharing them, because people don't know what goes on in my mind when I invent those ideas and then they might think the plots sucks ^^; Lum (Reply to this) (Thread)

Zomg! Snowed in!

Snowed in at Kennetik
Snowed in at Deb's party
Snowed in at the diner

Lightening storms! People are advised to stay in doors!

Emmett and Debbie visit Justin in New York
Emmett and Debbie visit Justin in New York and they all get trapped in an elevator.

Planes are grounded because of the weather. People can't leave or have to stay.

Planes are grounded and people are stuck on them for hours--and some of those people need a blowjob NOW.

	You are too sweet :) Thank you! But don't get too excited, I'm feeling seriously blocked. I'm crossing my fingers that I get past it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let me know if you need hand holding or prompts or anything. Would word prompts help? Or weird rules of how many words in each paragraph or something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notreallyme10 2009-10-18 03:23 am UTC (link)
	Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work that way for me... the story just comes or it doesn't. I've never had to drop out of a challenge before so hopefully I'll work something out. Thanks for the offer though! I love that there is always someone willing to help in this fandom :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tell me more about this 'snowed in' thing. I mean, you're snowed in. Then what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Okay *Scoots closer* it depends on who is snowed in and where.

The diner: Debbie, Hunter, Emmett, Ted, Brian, Justin, Michael and Ben, plus a few various sundry. They have to pass the time. Do they divulge secrets to one another? Do fights take place, do they play strip poker? Who fucks whom and where (the supply room, the bathroom, under the counter)?

Kinnetik: Ted, Brian, various workers, Cynthia, possibly Justin and or another friend of theirs. Same thing. How do they pass the time? How does the stress of being snowed in at work effect the way people interact? Did Cynthia have a date, did Brian have a plane to catch, did Ted have plans he'd been looking forward to all week? Do unexpected people bond? Like Ted and Justin or Justin and Cynthia, etc.

	Strip poker. I like this idea. A big plus, I actually know how to play poker. Texas hold 'em! OH! It could be post!3x07/pre!3x08. Then muchos eye fucking w/ our boys. I want Ben to have a big secret. What should it be? Do you have any secrets you think all the boys might have. I like this plot very much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You know, I was just trying to imagine if they had this as an episode. I think they might go in a circle and divulge a secret desire. Like how in that one episode Ted told Brian that he always wanted to be Brian Kinney. And Debbie could say "I always wanted to be a ballerina... or a fag" and they would all say, 'well we all knew that part!" Things like that. Emmett would have a fun story, like I always wanted to be a flamenco dancer, wearing those high heels and all that lace and being moved around the dance floor by a butch Latino bull fighter. Etc.

	Okay, I've got things for everyone barring Ted. Though I'm taking the flamenco dancer thing for Em, that's good. :D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Heat wave and the drain of air conditioner's causes power outages. Which, of course, leads to... Escaping the slushy, cold holiday season with a vacation, where either it's perfect or they get slammed with lots of rain. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Heat wave and the drain of air conditioner's causes power outages thus leading to not-romantic (Kinney-style) romantic candlelight at the loft/at Britin/Justin's shitty New York apartment etc etc... ;) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Leaf fight/snowball fight at Britin or a park in New York. Or Toronto! Heatwave. Sweaty!sex! Something interesting with ice cubes ;) Vacation - snowboarding, finally. Or Mardi Gras in Australia! Overseas work trip for Brian or art trip for Justin. (Reply to this) (Thread)
