Discussion Post

[saphron_girl]

Hello! Inspired by this question in the Ask a Mod post, I'm starting a discussion post for the purpose of readers/authors/commenters being able to interact and discuss topics that may not fit into any other category, or would get lost someplace as large as the Prompt Post.

Feel free to post as anon, or under your username. All I ask is that you use good judgment and keep things polite/civil; but otherwise, no topic is off limits. Have fun! :)

That was me, so I might as well start the discussion off. I was hoping to get some inspirational fic writing tunes. What are your favorite res dogs relevant songs? Your otp torch songs? I must know!

Here's a great post from tumblr with an Orange/White fanmix: http://bit.ly/13zoROt

They're all perfect, and have helped me write for these two. :))

I've got two staples:

Romantic: Sweet Child o Mine (Guns n Roses) - just ignore the gendered pronouns
Sexy: I Wanna Be Your Dog (Iggy & The Stooges) - this one is so filthy and psychedelic, it's perfect for writing sex scenes

Check out the fan soundtrack listed here: http://orange-white.livejournal.com/12099.html

A lot of really great songs for O/W.

"Low" by Cracker puts me in an Orange/White mood like nothing. Just for the mood of the music, and the image of them lying in bed, wasted and slovenly, that always comes to me.

and this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FOVIp3mHZc will forever make me think of Orange/White whenever I hear La Roux's "Bulletproof."

beyond that, I'll listen to anything that might wind up on K-Billy's when I write. James Brown's "Can't Stand Your Love" is one I've recently found.

I actually listen to the Red Dead Redemption soundtrack - for some reason, the just-modern-enough wild west theme music fits ResDogs writing perfectly. Might be a love of Kill Bill soundtrack bleeding over.

Okay, are we allowed to talk about people in fandom? Not to be catty or mean, but... I totally ship two BNFs in this fandom but I would never say anything to either of them about it, but whenever I see them talk to each other I'm screaming internally because their interactions are just so adorable. (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)

If you're talking about who I think you're talking about, I'd be careful because I think one of them is the mod here. LOL.

(ttly agree tho.)

[(Anonymous)]

it makes me giggle with glee that the Reservoir Dogs fandom's gotten big enough for people to ship other people in it

[(Anonymous)]

OMG this. I don't know who the OP is talking about, but I automatically ship it. ;)

OP here: and OMG, I think my ship just sailed tonight. They are SO CUTE. *squeal*
