Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Fanfic Challenge What if the almost first date went further?

I have looked for something like this but have not found it yet so I am assuming no one has written it. Well except for one person and it ended too soon. We need more stories along this premise.

The almost first date was such a good scene - why not get them together then - up the suspense and drag it out a bit but make something happen in that scene when they fall on each other on the sofa or he carries her to bed or they see each other undressing.

Please someone put me out of my misery. I have been dying for something to actually happen ever since I first watched that episode.

Interesting idea, little tornado. Very interesting idea. *Dreamy sigh*

I loved their almost first date as well, their was so much tension between them. Yeah, someone should go for it. And possibly without the restrictions of the gfic section? Huh?

I second that!!!

Wait? Who said that?


But didn't someone actually do this kind of? One of the nfic round robins? oh yes, here it is, The Phoenix Reborn, on annesplace. But that could be the one you said ended too quickly. Lol. In that case, I still second the notion.

Okay. You talked me into it. I'm not sure what justice I can do to it. We'll see. But since I was waiting for Sue to proof and add her scenes to the next part of 50 First - I decided to write a little vignette for this scene...

And without the restrictions of the gfic folder.

It's not done yet. I've got about 5 pages. I'll want Sue to proof it for me before I post, but hopefully I can get it posted sometime today.

C-ya!

***EDITED*** Today? Hah! Today! Ugh! What was I thinking??? No, sorry, it won't be today. Maybe not tomorrow either - but I am working on it and I do have like 7 or 8 pages.

-- DJ

Barbara, after seeing what you did with your Date For One, I would just love seeing you write it! That combination of incredible sexiness and sweetest tenderness was - oh, wow.

Ann

Talk about seduction Ann. You know that it's hard to resist you, Ann, don't you?

Flatter me and make me unable to resist the challenge. Bad Girl! Bad, bad Girl. I gotta get another carpet!

Yay DJ! If you're on board, I'm definitely waiting in line to read it. Might have to shove some screaming fans out of the way though.


And Barbara--I loved Date for One. I haven't left feedback on it yet, but I still need to read chapter 3. I'd love it if you took up the challenge. Come on, you could do it so well!

Laura

Huh, Laura? But you did leave feedback on Date for One part 3. Or did the tone of my skin affect my eyes as well? Don't know.

Okay, I get myself a new carpet and wear things that won't interfere with the colours of my face and give it a try. Doesn't mean you are going to get something. If my muse is too shy, she is too shy.

Hmm.. Maybe I did. God, i'm going crazy and it's only mid morning yet.

*cringes in embarrassment and hides*

I have to admit my primary motivation to get on the boards after spending years lurking on both the archives was to post this challenge because I wanted to know what the possibilities were.

Bakasi: G fic or N fic is fine with me. I am happy with it ending with a kiss or getting angsty as long as they gave into what they were feeling a little bit or we saw a little more of the suspense and as long as it continued for as long as possible. I am equally happy with horizontal lambadas and physical fireworks as well. I think one should drag it out though because no one likes it to be tossed at you too quick. (Hence why they should have hooked up in Season 4 not Season 2 INMHO). And thanks for taking up the challenge.

Laura: Thank you for the support (and the laughs). I think I remember reading the Phoenix Reborn - good but didn't quite give me exactly what I was looking for. So many possibilities. She hears him popping the cork/he asks why she spilt the champagne/she can't stop staring at his shirt/he doesn't burn the lightbulb out/she kisses him/ we see the missing bits between him changing and her holding her stomach (I felt very let down by that bit). I have never written anything remotely like N fic though - well ok I have written sexy things but no N fic.

MetroRhodes: Thank you so much - I didn't think people would take me up on this. And now I am getting greedy - I want lots of people to try it out. I am dying to read all the different angles people are trying on this. And I glad you're doing one - I can't wait! *Thrilled to bits*

TOC: Please keep nagging Barbara to write one. I am glad you think this is a worthwhile challenge. I didn't want it to be rejected because it might have been done already.

Thanks again, I didn't expect people to take me up on this one and I offer my BR and editing services freely. tornado.little@gmail.com

The Little Tornado

Love the idea and love that DJ is going to write it.

Jackie

There's a fic on the nfic archive that is about the almost first date. I can't remember it off the top of my head though. But I am intrigued by the almost first date idea as it is one of those episodes where the tension and chemistry is so evident.

Crazy Babe: Did Australia beat the Netherlands? I am out of the loop with no cable.

If you are intrigued take up the challenge - I don't mind how many people try their hand at it.

Thanks,

The (Very Sleepy and Hungry) Little Tornado.

New DJ nfic! Woohoo!

Phoenix is one of my favorite episodes in season 2. I'd love any rewriting of it. If Bakasi decide to give it a try, better yet.

Little Tornado. Thank you for setting up the challenge and thank you DJ, Barbara and whoever takes it up.

Andreia

Oh great! See what I went and did? I went and opened my big fat mouth...

Ugh...

I tried to write this as nfic - honestly I did... I had a bunch of build up to it... I even wrote the actual scene... but I just wasn't happy with it. It just didn't want to work. So I cut a bunch out, close my eyes, and let my muse speak to me...

Unfortunately, she refused to go the way of "n".

<shrug>

So I went back and PGified the "little stuff"... now I'm worried...

I guess I'll just wait and see what Sue has to say. <g>

-- DJ

DJ, I love your nfics, but I'll take whatever you write. Gfic or nfic, your stories are great. Let's wait for queen's verdict.

That would really make a great story. If I wasn't already stuck with a blizzard on my hands, I might think about doing something with that. Maybe next time.

However, I'm kinda doing the happy dance about DJ trying to write another nfic, here. The Queen won't let her apprentice down, I'm sure - she'll find a way to spice up what you g-efied. *lol* ...and I am totally jealous that you can write 5 to 7 pages *that fast*. I can sit there all day and write two pages in all... Of course, last November, I did have at least one weekend when I wrote 12,000 words. *lol* I wish I could get that momentum back - the ideas just fell onto the page and, what do you know, somehow it turned into a story that got nominated for 2 Kerth awards. Imagine that... Eh.

I'll be looking forward to these stories now, you know. So get busy, people!

It's my turn to stump for DJ!

I sent the story back to DJ this morning. And it's yummy!

Okay - the PG version has been posted "An Almost First Date".

<DJ bows and scrapes before her Queen - thank you Sue - you are a jewel>

Okay, I'm almost sure that I'll give up on writing this piece. Doesn't make much sense to force my muse to write something she doesn't seem to like so much.

But I guess DJ did a great job with it. I can go off to read it, sorry for not doing it earlier. But as long as I was writing too I thought it would be better to not know your version.
