So. Who is writing the Sulu/Chekov ice skating AU? The one where Sulu wants to train with the best coach in the world, and so goes to Russia, and Chekov doesn't want to train, much less pair, with the strange Japanese boy. Until he meets him, that is. :D

OMG SO BRILLIANT. oh now I want a whole olympics au. with Jim as some wise ass hot shot snowboarder. or wait. possibly luge because those people are CRAZY. and Uhura and Gaila are best friends/rivals in women's downhill. I don't know what Spock would do. part of me thinks he should be a figure skater but really all I can think is that he would say "this much ice is illogical"

oh fandom that ate my brain... what is up!

THIS IS SO FREAKING AWESOME OMGGGGGG.

Why didn't you sign up for Trekreversebang? I WOULD SO DRAW THIS FOR YOU WTF YAYESSSS.

[livejournal.com profile] rivers_bend, did you sign up??

(also, is it legal for the artists to solicit the writers? XD)

I did not sign up, because I cannot commit myself to anything else that isn't my novel this year. but if I end up writing this plot bunny that is clamouring in my brain and won't shut up, I'll let you know.

That icon of Gaila actually totally reminds me of the women's snowboarder who fucked up in the last olympics? or whatever they were talking about. I never saw any of the last winter olympics. The brits don't seem that interested in it for some reason. (possibly the lack of mountains and snow in their country?)

LOL, Spock would totally think all that ice was illogical.

The Brits don't seem that interested in it for some reason.

It's because we get enough humiliation at the real Olympics, without adding in all the sports that we'll never be good at because you have to go to another country to do them.

Now, if they had a sport that was something to do with rain at the winter olympics, we'd totally pwn that. Maybe singing in the rain with umbrellas...

okay so I spent a RIDICULOUS amount of time at work today thinking about this.

ahahahha Gaila totally is Lindsey Jacobellis! I can hear the interviews now. "Gaila what happened out there?" "I fell."

I love the suggestion below that Scotty is a curler! perfect.

Rand is in whatever sport Jim is and they have an adorable brother/sister relationship. well not always adorable to Rand who frequently wants to kick his ass. :)

and SERIOUSLY YOUR IDEAS FOR CHEKOV/SULU ARE PERFECT. <33333333

DO WANT!!! XD And I love [livejournal.com profile] loveflyfree's ideas for the rest of them, too. :p I'd immediately thought of Jim for luge. Or maybe even a speed skater! Spock could possibly be the demanding coach or the Olympic official that Jim clashes with. XD And of course, Bones is the Olympic medic that has to patch up Jim's stupid ass after he wipes out and tears himself up.

But yes, Sulu and Chekov, pairs skating! \O/ DEFINITELY. ^_____^

omg. my brain has started in on all this world building of a Russian Sporting Federation, that has all these crazy rules, and Pavel is chaffing under them, and doesn't understand why anyone would want to come TO Russia, and he has his eye on this slightly older Russian skater, and he's been planning on marrying him and skating with him since he was 11, and then they force Hiro on him, and.... yeah. I HAVE TOO MUCH ELSE TO DO.

AHAHAHAHAHA!!! XD I love it!!

Oh man, this totally takes me back to my hardcore crush on Alexei Urmanov when he took the gold back in '94. XD *fans self*

And OH! Scotty? Totally a curler, obsessed with angles and friction coefficients and angular momentum. XD And Cupcake would have to be on the US mens Hockey team. :p I suddenly have this scene in my head of all the athletes partying it up, the rambunctious Americans with the Scottish curling team and the figure skaters and ladies skiers sort of watching all the chaos when Jim (of course) mixes it up with Cupcake, and Bones has to patch him up, AGAIN. XD Damn, this stuff should be all over our f-lists! WHY ISN'T IT!? O_O

IDK but I'd read this in a heartbeat.

I know that feeling well.... but you would write it so well! I am not helping. :(

I think you just volunteered yourself!!

AAAARGH! I am not the person! I know nothing about Japan or Russia or ice skating! now if only my brain would listen to me about these very valid protests

Well in two weeks I'll be living in Japan and totally willing to act as your research liaison! Now all you need to find is a Russian expert and an ice skating expert. ;)

Oh, that would be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO awesome!!!! I would read that so much! AH! Just the idea is giving me fits!

Apparently my brain wants me to have a whole AU universe with the Russian Sporting Federation, and rules and regulations and all sorts. *sigh*
