martyfan:
Bold the clichés you have written, and italicise those you've considered writing.
Genderswap: I don't believe I've actually written it yet, but given I read stuff like El Goonish Shive, which has boy to girl/girl to boy switching near-CONSTANTLY, yeah, I've thought about it.
Bodyswap: Again, haven't written it yet, but I've definitely thought about it. The usual "Doc and Marty somehow end up in each other's bodies" story. I imagine them having some interesting height issues.
Drunk!fic: If the character in question passes out after one shot, does it still count? If so, the PreTime story Misery Journey qualifies.
Huddling together for warmth: Had the occasional thought about people lost on camping trips, but I don't think I'll ever write it.
Undercover in a gay bar: Nope, this one I don't think I'll be writing.
Pretending to be married: I nearly bolded this, but then I realized, Marty and Jennifer in "There's Always Tomorrow" are merely pretending to be engaged. So, not quite. (VampDoc2 and Josie don't count -- they ARE legitimately married)
Secretly a virgin: No secret to you guys, but do you think Doc's willingly going to out himself to Marty and Jennifer? I know I've made at least one oblique reference to this in a NonTrilogy fic, and I might do an embarrassing expose later.
Amnesia: Yup! The subject of an upcoming NonTrilogy fic, where it happens at a rather inconvenient time. There's also been more minor memory loss in some of the vampire fics.
Cross-dressing: That Trilogy fic I talked about earlier. It's written, actually, I just have to type it. Damn, I had fun with that story. . . .
Forced to share a bed: There's accidental sharing of a bed in a far future NonTrilogy, but I don't think I've ever forced anyone to share a bed.
Aliens make them do it: Nope. Thought about plain old alien abduction, though. Not for George, unfortunately.
Wingfic: I'm assuming giftfic for Ael counts. :D The VampDocs and company have wings, Marty gets a pair at the end of the OckDocumentary arc, and Phoenix!Doc from "From the Ashes Reborn" (I really oughta do something about posting that) also displays wings at least once.
Mpreg: This depends on if Sims counts. I don't think it'll ever turn up in my regular fanfic.
Mistakenly assumed to be gay: Not yet. Though I do have a "coming out" story that occasionally tugs at my mind. Poor J.J. . . .
Let's play truth or dare: Again, nope. I may have to now, though, it sounds like a fun bit of fluff.
Mary Sue fic: Oh, come on, everybody's written this. Mystie and Josie have Mary Sueish beginnings, but I hope they've grown a bit beyond that. I also wrote straight-up self-insert in an early draft of "Reality Check." (My fanself does still make an off-screen cameo in the finished work.)
Aphrodisiacs: I haven't written it yet, but there's a story about Doc inventing a special pheromone perfume that works a little too well sitting in my "Overly Plotted Bunnies" document.
Curtainfic: Behold, all, I have researched this! Curtain fic is basically domestic-type fluff between couples. As in, shopping for curtains. Now that we know what it is, I think it's safe to say I've written some. I mean, Stuck With You certainly contains some of the necessary elements. And back when I did the 12 Days of Christmas, the Partridge prompt I did for Victor/Victoria could qualify too.
Hurt/Comfort: Hi, I'm Victoria, and I like taking my characters through HELL. I think anything involving Jack Merridew Brown AUTOMATICALLY falls into this category somehow. Doc and Marty require much hugging after those experiences.
Apocalypse fic: Thought about it after watching too much Outer Limits in the past, but never wrote it. Really wouldn't know how, I think.
Someone has a baby: World of Light, the chronicle of Josephine's pregnancy. I've also written some pregnant!Clara for future Trilogy stuff, and another preggers Clara appears in "When Worlds Collide."
Baby!fic: I think my little vignettes involving Doc having to adopt a baby Marty qualify. Doc and Gypsy's first child in "NonTrilogy" will also be adopted, but I'm not sure that's the same thing.
Telepathic soulbonding: Yes. Oh hell yes. Not particularly romantically, but more of a family-type thing. The vampires have their blood-links, of course. But the main one I think of is the interesting Link between NonTrilogy Doc and Marty. (It'll probably be years before I properly explain that, unless it comes up in "When Worlds Collide.") Something about the whole process intrigues me.
Werewolves mate for life: I haven't really written much in the way of werewolf fic, and I've never even considered the whole packmate thing. So a no here.
Speaking of fanfic, I ought to go do something with it. At least "Bonds of Holy Matrimony" is continuing well.

" "I thought you and Hare were..."
Hatter looked very confused. Alice couldn't bring herself to say the next word-- it would probably confuse poor Hatter even more. He stood there looking at her, not picking up what she was implying.
"I don't get it, Alice. What does Hare have to do with you and me?"
Alice smiled at him and sighed, "Nevermind." "

Date: 2009-01-21 06:42 am (UTC)...also, somehow, I assumed baby!fic to be when all the normally-adult characters have either reverted to babies or writing about when they were babies/kids. H'm. I don't know why I'm rambling at you about this, now, but hey. 's what I do sometimes. Ramble in comments. Okay, I'm really stopping now, I swear.

Date: 2009-01-21 02:53 pm (UTC)Yeah, I thought it might be age regression fic at first too. Fanfic cliches need clearer names! Especially since it seems like a repeat after the whole "having a baby" thing, though I guess that one's more about pregnancy than anything else.
