Author: ink_on_the_page

Characters/pairings: Gabe/Alicia/Mikey, Gabe/Travis, Gabe/William, Gabe/Spencer
Disclaimer: I don't own them. This is just for fun. Suing me for money is about as productive an exercise as squeezing blood from a stone. I do not condone any illegal activities that may be written about in my fiction, nor do I partake in any of these activities personally. This is a work of fiction, and should be treated as such. If you got here by googling yourself or someone you know, for the love of my sanity, hit the back button or DON'T TELL ME WHO YOU ARE.
Summary: Gabe’s a leaf on the wind, in his own way. Home is wherever his loved ones are. He just has a lot of loved ones.
Warning: polyamory? Open relationships? Do those things need warnings…
Prompt: Rambunctious Boy by John Fogerty
Word count: 2176
Betas: akire_yta, lisaroquin, miserylovesme, rawkenr0ll, stephanometra
Author's note: Written for sticksnstrings to the song Rambunctuous Boy by John Fogerty. I immediately thought that this song was just so Gabe when I listened to it the first time, and this story was the result. It Really needs to be taken in the spirit that everyone knows about everyone else, and it’s not at all meant to be seen as any form of cheating or anything else. Polyamory, in a lot of ways.

This set of the lyrics really stuck with me. I mean it just. Dug into my brain and would. Not. Let. Go.

I'm a rambunctious boy
Rambunctious boy
Oh my I'm a restless guy
Got a home everywhere I go

( I'm-a trouble on the run/Heartbreakin' son of a gun/Oh yeah I'm a rambunctious boy )

Title: Fall Away

Author's notes: About halfway through this, my muse decided that a short vacation was in order >.< I had originally pictured this as being a much longer fic, but...

Title: Wings of Fire
Author: etakyma@yahoo.com (and on LiveJournal http://etakyma.livejournal.com/)
January/February 2009 Written for sticksnstrings challenge
Word count: approximately 2200 plus or minus
Prompt: Bang the Drum Slowly, Emmylou Harris
Author's Notes: This was not easy to write. In fact I got about 900 words into it three four times, from three four different angles, and in three four different points along the timeline before this was the one that felt the most "right." The tone of the prompt given to me was quite melancholy. And sad, slow-ish, and sweet.

and there's two others another that will maybe somewhere from tuesday 17 to friday 20th who've pled life and contrary muses and are working on it, maybe not. And 3 I haven't heard back from yet. So maybe more, but that's the schedule for what's in/done.

sticksnstrings fics are due today. I'll be around-ish most of the day. I'm not managing much more than refereeing and damage control. got a question, problem. what have you give me a yell on messenger or email. Yahoo Messenger--lisascribble. Gtalk--lisaroquin (but this has been tempermental as all get out with my connection and I blip in and out so that one is sketchy) Need a quick readthrough beta whatever.

Got your fic done--email it to lisaroquin at gmail.

Posting for sticksnstrings will start the 14th. (Saturday). And some kind of plan for posting will be up tomorrow--see how many fics show up and what all.

Just a reminder. </a></b></a>sticksnstrings Fics are due Feb 10. The posting schedule will be out by Feb 11 barring disaster, and fics posted to the comm from Feb 14-Feb 20 (or earlier depending on number of fics turned in)

If you have an IJ and wish to post for yourself on the date, you certainly may. If you don't have an IJ/ won't be around/ time constraints on assigned day I'll post it, please have the fic formatted for LJ/IJ though.

The basic idea, simple. Sign up. Get a song to use as inspiration for a fic. Write. There is a longer writing period due to holidays and chaos if this works out and everyone has fun probably do again at some random time in the future.



sign ups: Nov 1- Nov 14. 2008
assignments go out: : Nov 15- Nov 30 2008 (it will take me a bit to get that done)
last chance for omg I can't do anything with this request a different song: Jan 1 2009
fic due Feb 10 2009 which gives you 2 months to write even through all the holiday chaos if you do not have an IJ. (I'll post for whoever doesn't have an IJ, if you have an IJ welcome to post yourself on the day)
posting schedule: put up Feb 11
posting Feb 14-20 2009


rules
1. no insanejournal is necessary but an authorname and some way of contact is (preferably email--I'd really not like to go about hunting up and commenting on a dozen or more journals uhm hey fic is due?)

2. since this is hitting in Feb you may request love song, love sucks, or just gimme a song. (there is *no* necessary theme, just if you'd like something in that direction)

3. Minimum word count 1200 words

4. can request a different song due to lack of inspiration no more than twice and not after Jan 1.

5. Any fandom--television, book, movie, RPS/RPF. Any rating. Any genre. use the song you're given as inspiration, write.



sign up format:

author name:
contact: (email or *directlink* to journal)
fandom: if you have any clue (by no means set in stone just what you're most likely to write in)
theme: (optional)

note: comments will be screened. contact info won't be publically veiwable and not used for anything but assignments and a reminder just before this comes up due.
