Shipping itP II: Scourge of the Seven Seas

[Callos_DeTerran]

*Yawns* Man it's been awhile since I've been in the shipping thread...which grew large enough it folded in upon itself and became an entirely new thread! Anywho, what's new and exciting in the world of GiantITP shipping? Have I or EE popped up any were?

[Kneenibble]

Very nice fic.

Even though I don't blush. I just don't.


And I have never seen myself in the police....Just...Not me.

But very nice fic.

Looking forward to more.

Well thank you. If you're not satisfied with my portrayal of you, remember that I've never met you and have only the most superficial of qualities to work from, and that it's very much just for fun. If you're really not satisfied, I can rearrange the story. - words being voluble as they are.

randman22222 - thank you for your nitpicks, I will edit the original post when I look at that paragraph, and please check your PM for a question about the other thing. Unfortunately everything I know about police procedure is from the X-Files so that area might have to remain a bit sketchy (it's funny, by contrast, how spot-on I can write being vomitously drunk. Write what you know they say?).
And pshaw, you're the main character, of course you don't die.

And thank you to others also: Ethrael, I will try to think of a role for you in China Gold, but in the meantime, I have noticed that people who write ships tend to get shipped themselves. *poke*

While I have my families computer under my capable hands, I have decided to turn out a few short fics.
Here they be.
Also: those who beg for fics will get short, horribly written ships with me.

"RHL, I LOVE YOU!" He had screamed at the top of his lungs without even thinking. The room silenced, all eyes turning to him.
And suddenly, a crumpled piece of paper arced through the air, hitting him successfully in the eye.
In a messy hand, there was a message scribbled.

I know, now shut up.
You're embarrassing.
...I love you, too

Note: Really, its drabble. Not quite anything to be proud of...just an idea that didn;t get finished.

They had mislabled him, somehow.
Honestly, how anyone could confuse a baby salmon with a goldfish, Rabbit didn't know. It didn't matter to her.
She had found him at a Pet Smart and had thought him beautiful, so much so that she purchased him and a gallon tank (large accommodations for what she thought was a single goldfish) and took him home, placing him on her bedside table, where she smiled at him every morning, and kissed the glass of his tank every night.
He quickly outgrew the small tank, and she had installed a larger aquarium, filled with charming plastic plants and ceramic pirate ships, which she watched him dance through late at night, as she dozed off, dreaming of bubbling tanks.

I've written a fic! It was terrible, long ago and really kinda dumb but stil!! It still counts.

All right, I'll try and think of some more ships, and thanks for trying to include me in China Gold.

@ RHL: I actually liked those. Short, snappy and vivid.

Those were awesome. The first one made me laugh. And I didn't think shorter fics were capable of being that decent before.

[Lyinginbedmon]

Here's an idea to try: Nameless & Lyinginbedmon.

Heck knows they have chemistry

It's great, I'm sorry. *is sick-y, stressed and needs sleep*. Sorry again, I love the way you wrote that.

RHL, the first made me laugh and the second was the best drabble I have ever read.

not yet, but we can still hope

Come on shippers, you know you want to.....

sure is slow today.

[Player_Zero]

Not to be an impatient whatsit, but how's the index coming? ...

[TRM]

sure is slow today.

Your wish is my command, though I sure you'd prefer someone else.

This one really came out of an idea for the last line, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone has done something similar already.
Top Secret Chambers — RHL/Dr. Bath

Spoiler

Show

Rabbit slipped into the steamy room and leaned against the door, exhausted. All day she had been chased after by sycophantic courtiers, but now she had finally escaped to the privacy of her own bath and she was prepared to make the most of her rare break. Finally a chance to do everything herself; no one was in her bath waiting on her hand and foot.

She loosed the buttons on her gown, and sighed with happiness as the outer robe fell to the floor and the warm steam coiled around her. A voice interrupted her pleasant revere. “Please keep those clothes on, miss.” Rabbit looked around in alarm, had an attendant somehow managed to infiltrate the top-secret sauna? What was a parrot doing perched on the edge of the tub?

“Excuse me? But, who the hell are you and what the hell are you doing in my private chambers!” The queen’s pent up anger spilled out at this unknown parrot and soon she was yelling at the top of her lungs. “Miss,” Came the voice. “Lower your voice miss, lower your voice!” It rang with authority and made Rabbit pause; she had never been spoken to that way.

“Why should I take orders from a parrot?” It sounded petulant, even to her. She was overwhelmed; everything was coming out wrong. She was surprised to realize that she wanted this strange parrot to like her, to respect her. “I’m sorry, that was childish. I apologize. I’m just so confused, what is a parrot doing in my very private bath?”

“He’s mine.” Said the voice. “And I accept your apology.” Rabbit had to look around again. “Who?” She asked. “Mine,” Replied the voice gently. “The bath’s.” Rabbit cocked her extravagant eyebrow. “You expect me to believe that?” Her heart was beating faster, why was it beating faster? What was going on?

“I do, miss.” Two golden orbs suddenly appeared at the top of the tub, golden eyes looking out at her. The most beautiful eyes in the world. Rabbit shook her head—what had come over her? —And looked away from the deep penetrating eyes.

“Ah, yes,” She stammered. “Now, this will sound awkward, but I really need a bath; would you mind if…” She tapered off. She was being too forward; he would reject her and… then what? “I mean, only if it isn’t awkward, of course,” “I wouldn’t mind at all.” Said the bath. “In fact, I would be honored for a queen to bathe in me.”

Rabbit smiled with joy and let her inner robes drop to the floor as she eased into the perfect, gently steaming water.

@V Fixed!

That was amusing.
But... *Nitpick mode, activate!*
The last 'bath' should be 'bathe'.

[RabbitHoleLost]

Not to be an impatient whatsit, but how's the index coming? ...

Its not. As my laptop is dead, I'm reduced to posting with my Wii.

Also, an interesting take. Oddly, Bath hasn't really been a traditional bath tub before, methinks.

[TwoBitWriter]

I... uh.... I've been terrified to start chatting on this thread...

Well... hello...

A lot of the shipping has been very good. I wish I could write such things myself. I would make a fortune!

I think I should stick to epic adventure...

[randman22222]

Hey, we won't bite you or anything, TBW. In fact, if you write a good shipfic, we'll stamp your forehead in bright, red ink, that says,

Approvable Content

[happyturtle]

I wish I could write such things myself. I would make a fortune!

What? There's a fortune to be had?

Why has no one advised me of this?

Where do I sign up for my fortune? Details please!

[RabbitHoleLost]

Hey, we won't bite you

Except for me. I do, infact, bite.

[TwoBitWriter]

Except for me. I do, infact, bite.

I don't mind a little biting...

But as for the fortune (because I don't know yet how to quote multiple people in the same post) you would be surprised the kind of things that people will publish and read. If you can imagine it, there is probably a market for it somewhere.

And now someone will probably write a bit about RHL biting me. Like Quest for the Holy Grail.

[randman22222]

Oh well. She'll bite you.
I'll stamp you.

And I could actually publish these stories somewhere?

[RabbitHoleLost]

... Completely derailing for a moment...
Hey, you live in Norman! I'm in Tulsa! =O

[Cobra_Ikari]

Mmm. I would try to post a shipfic, except I feel really uncomfortable trying to write someone else. Unless there is anyone who really wants me to write them...I'll think about it.

[randman22222]

TBW?

Lock your doors. NOW.

[TwoBitWriter]

I think I could do a decent shipfic, I just haven't gotten to know enough people here well enough yet... I'm working on that though!

I consider myself a pretty decent writer, after all.

[happyturtle]

I didn't know anyone when I started, and now I've shipped half the playground. So... just start. The more you write, the easier it gets.

((Says the person who hasn't posted anything new in over a week... but it's only because I've been sick...))

[randman22222]

What? You're sick as well? Bugs are going around IRL and itP.

Internet Transmitted Diseases. Figures the Ship thread woul get hit.

[Mordokai]

My offer still holds true. I am incredibly lazy and everything but if you decide to take me up on it, let me know.

Aw, you poor thing.

...

Want me to lay my hands on you?

[happyturtle]

No bugs. No contagion. It's the accursed migraines that I've had nearly every frickin day for the past month.

But I see my doctor on Monday, and I'll be requesting a referral to a specialist. So hopefully I will get some answers soon.

@^: Anytime, babe!

[randman22222]

Oh jeeze... That's a good deal worse...

I'll take that as a hint I should start with you... paired with whom... thats the only real question.
