| Author: Minnie Rating: PG Category: Non-fiction (of sorts) Notes: Please do not archive elsewhere without permission. A conversation with myself. I'm not crazy, I'm just a little bent. Archive Date: 5/29/2002 "So. You're depressed, huh?" "Yeah." "Don't worry, I've got a plan." "Oh, no, not again. A plan never works." "Yes, it will." "How do you know?" "Because I say so." "Yeah, whatever. Go away." "Not until you hear THE plan." "I thought it was A plan." "Yes, but I changed prepositions because I'm such a rebel." "Whatever." "So THE plan ..." "Does the plan involve you going away so I can wallow in misery?" "No, but it has something to do with torturing some people." "I dislike torture in any form. Now go. away." "No! So ... here's the plan. See, you need an outlet for all the depression. Channel it into something. Fics. Torture some characters in fics with lots of angst and craziness. Then you'll feel better." "That's it? That's THE plan? Okay, the plan officially sucks." "What's wrong with it?" "Just because I'm depressed doesn't mean I want anyone else, even fictional characters, to be depressed." "Haven't you ever heard of the saying 'Misery loves company'?" "I don't care what misery loves. It can love pink tutus for all I care." "Misery loves pink tutus" doesn't quite have the same ring to it. But it'd be an interesting slogan to put on a t-shirt. Anyway, back to THE plan." "I was never in to THE plan in the first place so I can't go back to it. Or do anything with it." "You know, if you quit bitching and being such a whiny ass, the plan will work." "No, it won't. Go away." "No." "If I give you Lance pictures, will you go away?" "Um, tempting, but no." "Happy fics?" "Nuh-uh." "Pizza?" "Not hungry." "A repeat viewing of all the Lex-centric Smallville episodes?" "Ooooh, Lex. Hitting below the belt there ... but no. THE plan and only THE plan." "Fine!" "I knew you'd see it my way." "No, I just said that to make you shut up." "I knew that too." "Did not." "Did too." "Did not!" "You're turning ten again." "Am not." "Okay, that would be a yes." "You're driving me crazy." "Hmmm, how does one drive one's self crazy?" "By talking to one's self about A plan." "You mean THE plan." "Whatever!" "So you, no, we are officially crazy." "Maybe. Or just really depressed and needing an outlet." "Hah! Hah!" "What?" "THE plan already worked and you didn't even know it! Bow to my greatness! Bow, I tell you!" "Wait, wait. THE plan involved writing fics with angst and craziness. I don't see any fics around here." "Nah, that was just a red herring." "A what?" "I figured you'd never go for the angst fic thing because you hate writing that stuff so I sorta snuck it in there to keep you off-balance. THE plan was really about getting you to channel the depression into something and then let it out. Which I think you're doing." "I hate you!" "Yeah, my work here is done. And THE plan lways works." -End- HOME ORIGINAL FICTION FAN FICTION |
