Football, Fic and Labelling, RL and Fic and a Meme

[redfiona99]

People are finally getting the memo about how creepy 'Every Breath You Take' is. From Early Doors' post about the Fabregas transfer (http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/early-doors/article/345695/) - >>clips were shown of Fabregas playing alongside Lionel Messi and Gerard Pique at La Masia as The Police's 'Every Breath You Take' was boomed over the loudspeakers.

The choice of music did make Early Doors giggle a bit.

The stalker's anthem of choice, Sting's creepy ode to obsession was undoubtedly the perfect musical accompaniment to the moment when Barcelona finally lured Cesc back to their home and their love was unrequited no more.<<

And no, Doors is not exaggerating.

Apparently X-Men in general makes me write accidentally shippy fic. But crikey and lordamercy, I'm writing something that's entirely gen and yet, it's still utterly Charles/Erik. I started changing my labelling policy years ago, so that even if any number of characters are involved, if the focus of the fic isn't on that, it's a gen fic, but XMFC is making me very, very glad that that's how I decided to go.

I'm heading to Germany for a week for a conference, so if anyone wants to request a ficlet, I am undoubtedly going to need something write. (I will be taking books and I will be buying books [yay, books in German]) but I will also undoubtedly get bored while travelling.

Meme pinched from Opera, because I like the version she posted:

If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach. -- Alfred Hitchcock, 1899 - 1980

If I wrote Cinderella, what would you immediately be looking for?
