Who... me?

Wow... THAT caught me totally off guard. Thanks! ^_^

Ok, thought about it for a bit (since I was very, not prepared), and I'm not sure how to put it, but what I'll go for is an exaggerated genre/writing style. Looking at the stint of 'bad harlequin' drabbles a while back (which was a favorite) got me started, but if you'd like to do a really theatrical drama? Go for it. A shadowy Mystery? Be my guest. (Clue style? Luffy, in the galley, with the drumstick...) Feel free to use cliche's at will. ^_~ (Unless, of course- this topic sounds stupid... because I was drawing a blank)


EDIT: jadeprince explained this a lot better than I did, and thus I quote: "It's like... playing to a particular writing/literature/film cliches/genre. Example: Romance novel, film noir (aka detective stories), maybe even Sentai show (aka Power Rangers), anything that just has a particular or recognizable -feel- to it, so that someone reading it could go 'Oh! You're writing this like a Japapese game show or a broadway musical!' "

Actually this sounds like it could be a lot of fun. ^____^ I approve.

All right then, glad you liked- I feel much better about it now. ^_^

Does that help a little?

so u mean.. like a tipical plot? like if in a horror theres always a du,bass blond that dies frist?

or.. O.o

Yeaahhh that's one way of interpreting, though I'd say a typical "structure" rather than plot, exactly. But I'm sure you could do some sort of crazy horror spoof. ^^ Give it a shot.

Thank you so much- you did a much better job of explaining that than I did.

[lady-karasu.livejournal.com]

I snagged your explination in the actual post- I hope you don't mind, but you sound a lot better. ^_~ Let me know if you'd like me to remove it...

Ok I think I get it....

Hmm...maybe I should try for a Shojo-ish type OP... now if I can just get Luffy in a dress...

Ya know, I've seen fanart of Luffy in a dress.. ^_^
Frankly, I don't think he'd really care, as long as he could move around freely in it (ie, it wasn't too tight). Sanji would look cute in a dress. Usopp... maybe. Zoro... O_O
