Ok so I am currently writing/finishing a fic called it shouldn't happen to an eagle and it got me thinking. How about a challenge where you pick your favourite character and then involve them in a series of misfortunes? They could be fics/pics whatever you want so what do you all think?

ooohhh that sounds like fun! I do that to the Eagle alll the time...I could chose someone else though...

So we can pick whatever character we wish to bash? And piccies are allowed too? Ebony you can always chose Ego

Ohhh Amy but he is ALL yours! I thought that I could do the Condor this time!

Speaking of Condor, he'll take his time with Ego.... ouchhh

Nup because everything goes wrong for him in this one!

So he doesn't get to smack the blue boy?

Ahem - challenges are naughty when I am mid-fic My muse gets tickled easily .... I will side-step this thread so that I won't get distracted ... Unless .... oh fuck .... Goddamn it! Got a good idea, now ... DAMMIT Stalks off muttering about the evilness of wildly talented individuals with great ideas who like to pass on plot lines as challenges ... Wish me luck on concentrating on my work here .... SJ

Ok here is my little story. I stopped it as I thought maybe I was being a little hard on our eagle. Ken sat at the small table in his shack head in his hands trying to work out how he had got himself into his current predicament. Not only had he managed to piss off Joe but Nambu had grounded him Jinpei and Ryu glared at him whenever he was around and then there was Jun, she looked at him with cold green eyes and just left the room whenever he entered. He sighed and thought about the last few days and the series of unfortunate events. First there was the lady he tried to help with her shopping for some unknown reason she had decided he was trying to mug her and yelled for the police. Nambu was not impressed to say the least at having to come down to the police station and explain his son. But it did not end there, oh no! He was leaving the station with Nambu when the daughter of that woman came running over and started to scream all sorts of obscenities at him while hitting him with an umbrella, he had ducked and Nambu got hit in the face, breaking his nose. While Ken was driving Nambu to the medical facility they had stopped at the lights and Ken got lost in thought the lights changed and Ken stayed still the drivers behind tooted their horns and yelled in frustration but by the time Ken came out of his reverie the lights had changed again and two burly males had gotten out of their car come over and physically pulled Ken from the car. This resulted in a fight and Ken had ended back at the police station. Ken was being led back to a cell after having the cuffs removed when he tripped and fell forward. He put his hands up to prevent and injury and collided with something soft. When he rose his eyes he saw exactly what his hands had impacted with and then as he raised his eyes further he saw the furious face of a female police officer whose breasts both his hands were now firmly on. He went scarlet and tried to mutter an apology as he got slapped by her. After he eventually sorted everything out he decided to visit Joe and tell him about the really bad day he was having. He got over there and knocked on the door of Joes trailer. Gina who was Joes latest girlfriend opened the door and smiled a greeting before waving him in. She explained Joe had popped out and would be back shortly as she cleaned around the trailer. Ken sat down and waited while she continued to clean and after a little while he needed to use the bathroom. When returning he bumped into Gina and knocked her backwards she grabbed onto him to try to prevent from failing but they both landed on Joes bed just as he walked through the door. It took Ken two hours to calm Joe down and another one to explain what had happened. After that Ken decided to leave and let Joe and Gina talk, he figured he could tell him the rest the next day. He went to bed that night thinking things could not get any worse and not realising just how wrong he was. He got up the next morning and was called in to see Dr Nambu, who promptly told him the female officer had filed a complaint and that he was grounded. He tried hard to explain what had happened but Nambu was having none of it. So Ken sighed and left to go back to his place. While on route he decided to drop into the J and explain to the others as he arrived he walked through the door to see the same female officer in animated conversation with Jun, Ryu and Jinpei telling them of the assault by this maniac male. He was about to slip out when Jinpei called to him Hey Aniki The female turned round and saw ken and then yelled as loud as she could at him Thats him! Thats the pervert that molested me! Ken wished the ground would swallow him up and he mumbled something before turning to run out the door, knocking over the cage holding Jinpeis latest find which then proceeded to run loose in the J. There was screaming and pandemonium as the rat run across the floor. Jun yelled at him to do something so he tried to catch it with a cardboard box that was nearby. As he picked up the box something heavy fell from it landing on top of the rat and squashing it. Jinpei and Jun yelled at him in unison and he decided now was a good time to make a run for it. He got back to the air field and sat down with a heavy heart and was just trying to think up a way to make it up to Jinpei and Jun when there was a knock at the door. He got up and opened the door to see Gina standing there. He gestured her in and she explained that she understood what happened the day before was a complete accident and that things were fine between her and Joe. Ken gave a small smile as he thought to himself At least something went right But he did not notice the way Gina was looking at him. He offered her a drink and they sat down talking together for a little bit before Gina got up to use the bathroom. Ken made sure he was well out of the way this time to prevent a reoccurrence of the day before. He sat down and waited for her to return however when Gina came out she had removed half her clothes and was standing there in little more than her underwear. Ken became flustered trying to get the words out for her to put on her clothes as she began sauntering over to him. She sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around him just as Joe opened the door with Jun and Ryu close behind. Joe went ballistic, Jun burst into tears and Ryu looked at him incredulously. Gina got up and quickly made an exit closely followed by Jun who was being comforted by Ryu. Joe walked over and hit Ken before storming out. And now here he was grounded and sitting at his table nursing a black eye with Joe mad at him Jun, Ryu and Jinpei not speaking to him and praying things could not get any worse.

oops! Sorry SJ! Nice pic Amy and yes definitely bash away at anyone you want.

Oh Gosh - poor Ken ... LOL! Oh haven't we all had weeks like that? I do love the way you write FB ... I have missed it muchly. I'm so glad to have you back in the saddle and sharing your brilliance with us!! I have to go read that again! ...LOL! Brilliant! SJ

Bwahahahaha... Firebird, I love this story of yours...poor Ken isn't just having a bad day...looks like it's going to be a bad week! Looking forward to more...hope he straightens things out!

Wow... A while ago I wrote a fic about Ken having a hard day (over and over and over again) but I think yours might actually be worse!!!! Poor Eagle!!! Can I go over and make it all better for him now?

Funnily enough, one of the first fics I wrote and posted online is that sort of theme. Not Gatch/BotP though. Mine is about Snape in the Harry Potter series. If you're interested, you can find it at: here

Tj please feel free to make the poor eagle feel better, I am sure he will appreciate the break from the bad time Maddy love your story about Snape my twisted sense of humour wanted to see all that and more happening to him especially as in the earlier harry potter's he came across as positively awful.

I'm making alist of all the things that can go wrong for a Condor...maybe i shoud the Swallow instead for variety...or both just for the fun of it. I'm nearly finished one fic I have been working, up to the last chapter, so i may do it for something light before I go back to my other Angsty one...

Originally posted by Firebird Tj please feel free to make the poor eagle feel better, I am sure he will appreciate the break from the bad time

Ooh.... permission! Hmmmm.... I think I know *just* what to do....

Yes TJ you have made him suffer a lot for his crimes...

Originally posted by Ebonyswanne Yes TJ you have made him suffer a lot for his crimes...

I know... it's soooo much fun. But then, it's fun to have him redeem himself too. Just take a look at Sunset... sigh...

FB you did some changes to this ficcie from the one you put in your library shelf...I do that you know..change things...we have to come up with another challenge I think...that was a good one!

can come up with lots of challenges it is just a matter of whether people want one just now.

I'm not sure... I have had a really hard time finding time to write this week... I want to finish my fic!!!!

Thats how I thought people would feel think we should leave the challenges for at least another couple of weeks.

Or..... we could do a long-term challenge. I WANT TO SEE LOTS OF CHRISTMAS FICS!!! Okay, we have a few months for those....

Geez, can we add piccies/ photo editings?

Go for it, Amy!

Well that gives us some time at least! Chrissy fics

I will look forward to reading all of them.

Cloud starts thinking.......The Owl and a Christmas fic.......No! Nothing coming to mind right now...... Cloud wanders away deep in thought............

.......and returns......what am I thinking.....I don't post fics......

Originally posted by clouddancer Cloud starts thinking.......The Owl and a Christmas fic.......No! Nothing coming to mind right now...... Cloud wanders away deep in thought............

Two words: Sugar Cookies Combine that with the Owl, and you have a Christmas fic.

Would that be an Owl baking sugar cookies, or eating sugar cookies. Maybe he could be baking the cookies for a shelter or something. <----- The Owl after eating 4 dozen sugar cookies the night before Christmas.

OKay Christmas fic it is. WE just going to post them in a new thread or put them in the library?

I think the library is a good place...it needs filling anyway...just let us know it's there in the threads

Sounds like a plan Just have to not get sidetracked too much

Well now I am getting to the last 20 posts for the home run to 1000...do know it is exhausting!!!

See???? Lots of ideas already!!!!!

Originally posted by Firebird OKay Christmas fic it is. WE just going to post them in a new thread or put them in the library?

The problem with posting them is that the formating on this site is strange. I say post them somewhere (here, Clubhousem whereever) and then put them in the library.

And yet, you are still up, Ebony!!!!!

Geez, Ebony, take some rest. It's only a matter of time till you'll be a babbling loonie!

She left right after she posted 1000. Cloud sighs. She didn't even stay for the party.

Well all the more Eagle and Condor for me.

Originally posted by clouddancer Well all the more Eagle and Condor for me.

Me too! I'l llet you have the Eagle, I'll take the Condor,. Then later, we can switch.

I agree completely TJ

It's weird... being on the West Coast I'm so used to being the 'last' one for everything...including the last one to go to bed. But on this worldwide board, we're on at all hours of the day and night! Amazing! Now I know what to do the next time I have insomnia!!!!

I wanted to say "A lot to say about nothing" but was not sure how that would be taken by others.
