Okay. I give in.
*** The Comic Covers Ficathon (now with less comics) ***
The idea:
1) Choose a Jo Chen cover from season 8.
2) Write a fic that has nothing to do with the plot of season 8, for which the cover would still make sense.
Jo Chen's covers can be found here. (And here - thanks Emmie.)
The rules:
1) Claim a cover, in the comments to this post. ALL Buffyverse covers by Jo Chen are allowable, including the TPB covers.
2) Only one person can claim each cover.
3) Your fic should be at least 500 words.
4) It really shouldn't be about season 8. At all.
5) Post it in the last week of September (26th - 30th).

Date: 2010-08-11 07:02 pm (UTC)Here's another gallery of Chen's covers with only Season 8. All the covers on the far left are Chen's except for the Wolves at the Gate arc.
And I'm just now realizing that the cover for The Chain fits my story Mirror Mask< perfectly. Cool.

Date: 2010-08-11 07:50 pm (UTC)Oh, 7. Or 9. Begging for G/F and incredibly tempting.
No, I'm going to go for #19. But still probably Rulesverse. (And I haven't totally given up on 9, either).

Date: 2010-08-12 07:21 am (UTC)So it could be a future fic as long as its not comic canon?

So... Can I sign up now? Because apparently I'm masochistic like that?
