I HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK. I decided to attempt the drabble meme to see if it could kick me back into action, and it may have worked. I cheated though—I listened to each song a couple of times and totally edited them a little bit after. But shh! The important thing is that I wrote something, right??

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays.
You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble
You start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them.

I chose The Kills for my fandom, which basically means Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince and everyone who is tangentially connected to them. There's actually a lot less Alison/Jamie here than you might expect, and that's because this was a really good opportunity to experiment with all kinds of other combinations.


Title: Drabble Meme #3
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Alison Mosshart/Jamie Hince, Alison Mosshart/Noel Fielding, Alison Mosshart/Jack White, Alison Mosshart/Kate Moss, Kate Moss/Noel Fielding/Russell Brand, Alison Mosshart/Kate Moss/Noel Fielding, everyone/everyone.
Rating: It varies, but let's go with NC-17 to be safe.
Warnings: Real person het and femslash, and hints of slash. A few have mentions of violence and rough sex, and a couple are slightly cracky, but I think that's it.
A/N: Well, er...these seemed less weird at the time.

You are probably aware that I'm not very good at drabbles. )

Holy crap, I finished this.


Title: not falling together
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Alison Mosshart/Jamie Hince, and Alison Mosshart/various (Jack White, Noel Fielding, Brian Molko, and sort Kate Moss) plus mentions of Jamie Hince/some of those same people.
Rating: Hard R
Warnings: Real people. Violence (occasionally during sex and including a bit of breathplay), drug use, and slightly excessive infidelity.
Summary: It used to be just the two of them in this tiny room, and now they're letting others in. It feels like they're coming apart at the seams, and Alison doesn't know how to fix it.
A/N: This basically deals with speculated changes/struggles in Alison and Jamie's relationship brought about by Kate and The Dead Weather. The timeline spans from September 2009 to December 2011, so not surprisingly, it is LONG. Thank you to the people who encouraged me—you know who you are. ♥ (2/2)

Jamie shows up the day after Alison gets back, lets himself in with the key he still has and scares her half to death when she wakes up to his grinning face. )

I feel a bit stupid about this, but also like it makes sense in a weird way. I've often thought that these pairings aren't too dissimilar from the incestuous ones I ship, because there's that intense closeness but also a really significant line that stops them from going too far. Also, you know, sometimes Jack White says things that are just asking for fanfiction.

I will warn you now that AUs are not my strong suit.


Title: just grew there wild
Author: likecharity
Pairing: Alison Mosshart/Jack White and a bit of Alison Mosshart/Jamie Hince, with mentions of Jamie Hince/Kate Moss and other pairings in varying levels of vagueness.
Rating: Hard R
Warnings: Real person het, cousin/cousin incest, and twincest if you squint. Also, age differences? Alison is 16, Jack and Jamie are 18 and 24.
Summary: An AU in which Jack and Meg are twins, Dean and LJ are their brothers, Alison is their cousin who spends the summers with them, and Kate and Karen are sisters who live next door. (And Jamie is still just Jamie.)
A/N: What is this? This is so ridiculous. I blame this thing that Jack said and [livejournal.com profile] restlesspulse for encouraging me to make something of it. XD Title from 'Use It' by The New Pornographers. And I feel like I should mention that I've messed with everyone's age differences a little bit to make things work, but you know, I've also made a bunch of them related, so if you're looking for realism you're in the wrong place.

Last time Alison saw them, she was eleven and they were thirteen, but even five years later she recognizes them instantly. )

KILLS POST. Mainly because I want to talk about this quote of Jamie's, from a recent interview that I can no longer locate for some reason:

When we started off, we used to play in a little soundproof cupboard, and it was just me and her sitting opposite each other, playing. And there was feeling, like we were making some sort of electricity, it felt really good. It felt like...there's something there. And um, we've kind of taken that idea and kind of blown it out of all proportion, and I want - that to me is the soul of The Kills, is that electricity, and I can almost take it, I want to take it to all kinds of different types of music and it still be there. People recognise it because of that feeling, because of that electricity.

It gave me a thought that had somehow never occurred to me before. Whenever I thought about why nothing happened between the two of them at the very beginning, I always figured it was something to do with the age difference (which isn't a big deal now, but back then Alison was in her late teens while Jamie would've been nearing his 30s, and I could see it weirding him out at least). But man—this quote just makes it all seem so simple, and it makes me really sad.

Rambling. )

And in other news, Jamie and Kate got married! Alison wore black to their wedding! According to ridiculous tabloids that we probably shouldn't believe, she gave a really terrible and awkward best man's speech! )

Okay seriously I'm going away now. When it comes to me, Kills posts will never be concise or sensible ever.



*brain explodes*

So I want to talk about The Kills. First of all, the important news is that I'm going to see them in concert which is still sort of blowing my mind a little bit, and like, the gig is at the end of the month so I should probably start believing that it's actually happening. I might have mentioned this before, but I don't cope very well with concerts. I get freaked out by crowds and heat, and standing up for long periods of time, and I've actually fainted at gigs before. But I said a while ago that if The Kills ever came to my city, I would just have to go, and it's true—I can't imagine missing out on the opportunity.

SO THAT IS A THING THAT IS HAPPENING.

I also just wanted to talk about the new album and like, the changes that are apparent to me, in their sound and their relationship.



And I also included some pictures, because I can't make a Kills post without pictures. )

Man, am I done? I think I might be. Can I now just cling to you all and panic about the gig? I mean, anyone else's thoughts on all this ridiculous analysis would be nice, but mostly I think I just want to cling and panic. I am excited! It's just a very panicky sort of excitement.

This post is partly a way of making up for not posting much fic lately.

It is also partly because it seems like I have to do that 'post snippets of every unfinished fic you have on your hard drive' meme at least once a year.

But mostly it's because I recently got a new laptop (my old one was falling apart—literally) and had to transfer all my files, and that led to me discovering a whole bunch of things I'd saved and totally forgotten about.

The ratings of these vary, but go up pretty high. And some of the ideas are kinda fucked up but you can figure that out from the pairing and avoid as you see fit—no other warnings necessary, I don't think!

The Kills/The Dead Weather/Kate Moss/what even is this fandom. )

Narnia RPF. )

Skins, including RPF. (And, um, Skins RPF/Narnia RPF?) )

Kings of Leon (and Jared Followill/Demi Lovato) )

Woah, check out this mass of tags. Crazy business.

Random anonymous questions for drunk!Jenny to answer, anyone? Go ahead!

In the meantime, a picspam of

attractive people with cats. )

FUN FACT: I had all of these pictures saved on my laptop already. I didn't realise quite how many there were until today. Apparently I have a thing for attractive people with cats?

A Kills!spam because...just because. It's short though, I promise! :)



Aren't they adorable? THEY ARE SO ADORABLE. )
hardparade: (music; alison mosshart)
THIS MAKES ME VERY VERY HAPPY. )

Yeah, I'm gonna be posting about The Kills more now.

Also hi and everything and I hope everyone who celebrates Easter had a good one. I spent it in Liverpool with my Mum, my sister, and her girlfriend. It was Anna's birthday, and we went to the safari park and she got presents like bath crayons and fuzzy felts and those magic washcloths that expand when you put them in water. ...She turned 25. I love my sister. ♥

EDIT: THIS ONE IS EVEN BETTER. )

EDIT #2: I am so organised, you guys. )

I've been meaning to make this post for ages, and as time went on, I gathered more and more stuff to include, so now it's turned into this RIDICULOUSLY GIANT SPAM. And I just can't bear to part with any of it, 'cause I'm pathetic. Basically, I've been obsessed with The Kills for like a really long time now, and it drives me insane having no one to talk to about them!! If you don't know who they are, they're a crazy awesome band made up of Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince. Alison has quickly become one of my, like, top five (maybe) celebrity crushes, and I ship the two of them LIKE BURNING. And you should too.

This post pretty much explains why, with a stupid amount of pictures, quotes, videos, and gifs. It's a primer. It may not be one about a pair of pretty incestuous brothers, but in my honest opinion, Jamie and Alison are just as strange and fascinating.



So this is Alison (nicknamed VV), and Jamie (nicknamed Hotel). They make seriously awesome music, but if I talked about the music as well as the people behind it, this post would be twice as long. The focus here is them, and their bizarre, co-dependent, obsessive, sexually-charged yet apparently platonic relationship.

I don't like to beg, but I pretty much spent all day on this and oh god you guys, please read it? I wanna share this obsession with somebody. Take five hours ten minutes out of your day and check it out?

Please?...Please? Yeah, screw it, I'm begging. )
