Plotbunnies to a good home - Edited edition

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

Since I have no time, too vivid imagination and no real ideas where to go after the beginning, I decided to give away some of my little ones. Two, actually. Both are Bertie/Jeeves, pre-slash/UST at the beginning but in the end they would be couple (duh) and anything from PG-13 to higher ratings is acceptable.

//: Edited after been reminded why excatly I haven't been thinking the first plotbunny for a year or so i.e. the ideas I mentioned have already been used admirably and my memory sucks.

First idea: 

In The Aunt and the Sluggard Bertie mentions that he saw Jeeves one evening at Midnight Revels, enjoying a fat cigar and writing some notes. Now, what if a night or few after it Bertie would somehow meet a new person, that fellow would invite him to some party and there introduce him to Jeeves, not knowing they already know each other. There. Cut the rest of my ramblings out just so anyone doesn't have to do impossible and try to overdo the already excisting fic (link in the comments) because, as I said, it's impossible. 


I suppose no one really understood my ramblings here... Well, the second one is told in three thousand simple words:


(sorry, couldn't resist)





No need to use the names and places in the pics but the plotbunny lies in the address.

Now, if some kind person is willing to take even one of these from my hands I would be extremely happy.

Your first prompt has kinda already been done. If not exact to the dot it's still a lovely story.
See: http://triedunture.livejournal.com/500471.html

I've been shamelessly pimping her fics, but they're oh so lovely.

[a-wittyusername.livejournal.com]

Lolz, I was about to rec the same fic.

Not quite the same plotbunny, but it's...well, it's amazing is what it is.

[amphitritie.livejournal.com]

Yes amazing.

Despite the discrepancies it's not that far off really.
Bertie meets Jeeves at club. Check.
Bertie and Jeeves get chummy. Check
Piano duet. Check.
Secret identity problems. Check
Learning more about each other. Check.

LOLZ I was totally gonna say something but I'm glad someone else did so as to not make me look so pompous.

But I DO love any ideas that have to do with the night Bertie sees Jeeves "in character" as Rocky. I think that's such an interesting night, even though it's like, what, one line of narrative in the story? It really stands out as the first time Bertie sees Jeeves as something more than a valet.

BLARGH all I'm saying is I dig it! :3

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

Ditto to the rest.

Now, don't think I'm copy-pasting your summary here, this is a plotbunny I played with in classes around year and a half ago but I never got more than a beginning from someone else's POV. I did not mention it in the post but I thought there would of course be gals fallin' for them left, right and up but that not once they would go home with anyone else but each other.

Oh well, I suppose we could call it done already.

This is one of my favorite scenes too. I've actually requested a story detailing it for Yuletide several times. No luck though, I'm afraid. :(

That is because triedunture is Amazing on a bun. With a side of Amazing. And an Amazing shake. The holy trinity of JW writers is triedunture, woe_in_a_hoodie, blackletter and purplefluffycat.

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

In my opinion, obvs.

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

I personally would add storyfan to that list. At least if there would be more Jooster-ficcery by her. Otherwise totally agreed with you.

[toodlepipsigner.livejournal.com]

*tries to ignore the fact that there are four names when a trinity is a group of three, then decides she's too much of a pedant to live*

Anyway... I agree wholeheartedly with your decision, but storyfan deserves her place up in the stars as well.

As if... my opinion...mattered.

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

I confess I'm not familiar enough with her work to say yay or nay, which is why I didn't respond to the other person who mentioned it.

[toodlepipsigner.livejournal.com]

Understood; I hadn't much expected you to as she doesn't post nearly enough of what she's written on the actual comm- it's all on her LJ. On the same token it's probably not your style. I just thought I'd throw my opinion out there like an arse.

*shrug* No self-deprecation required.

[toodlepipsigner.livejournal.com]

As well you know, it's my second nature.

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

That doesn't make it healthy.

[toodlepipsigner.livejournal.com]

I'm acutely aware. But it's not something that needs dwelling on.
Have a good night Gah

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

Oh my, totally forgot this one! How that could happen? o.O

But still I don't seem the idea the same one. Probably because I have been tossing and turning it for a year and a half...

[tekiclutch.livejournal.com]

Very convenient. I was just getting on this community to look up that very fic!

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

Historical pick: The wedding invitation would not, ever, be addressed to Jeeves. Jeeves, no matter how wonderful anyone thinks him, is still a servant.

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

Ah yes. Should probably had mentioned that what I had in mind was that the wedding would be a small one, to family really as I don't see how Jeeves' sister would have enough money to offer a wedding to hundreds of unknown people.

But yes, I see your point. That explains how there was never a line or two about the wedding itself in the books as after all Jeeves is her uncle and Bertie a friend.

oops!

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

Wait, from his sister? *scrolls back up* Oh! Well that's different, then--she'd invite them as separate entities.

[youngsaavik.livejournal.com]

Yay for the second prompt! I have the ability to write it myself, but I´ve often thought about Mabel´s wedding, and how Bertie and his friends would react to meeting all of Jeeves´ family and hearing him being addressed as "Reginald" or "Reggie" the whole night. Plus, I don´t know why, but I always think of Jeeves´ sister as a widow. So uncle Reggie would give Mabel away, and it´s very possible that Bertie was Biffy´s best man... The situation slashes itself.

[pipariperho.livejournal.com]

YEY! Someone in the same train of thoughts! I have thought Jeeves' sister as a widow too (reason I did not put any other name in the wedding invitation). That best man thingummy I did not even thought of but that's brilliant.

But I think there can't be very many friends of Bertie there, otherwise Jeeves would not be that free and out of his valet self and Bertie should really see Jeeves with his family, I think. But if you take this bunny I let you do whatever you want with it and just wait the outcome.

[youngsaavik.livejournal.com]

o.O I meant I don´t have the ability to write it myself. I honestly don´t know how that key word went missing from the previous comment. I´m so sorry.

But yes, you´re right about Bertie´s friends... There´d probably just be a few of them.
