Challenge Idea!

Hello! This is, obviously, not a fanfiction, but a challenge idea . . . For anyone looking for inspiration to write a new fic!

How many here have seen or read the Heero/Relena fanfiction cliche? You know the one . . . When Heero obviously loves Relena, and she obviously loves him back, but neither ever says a thing . . . When he's her secret bodyguard and she never knows he's there, or when he's a not so secret bodyguard and takes care of every ounce of her personal security . . .etc?

Well, the point of this challenge was to come up with an idea for a plausible, in-character fic that goes against the cliche. If you like the idea and are so inspired to take it and run away with it, by all means, please do. ^_^

The Challenge:
After the war, Heero has been isolating himself and hasn't seen the others in a long while. Relena no longer dotes on him and/or is obsessed with him . . . She's gone on with her life, and is even dating new guys.

Quatre, years later, abruptly finds Heero (Through Trowa, perhaps?) And invites him to stay the week at his residence, to reunite for old time's sake. Relena has also been invited up that same week, though perhaps not-- or perhaps so-- intentionally. Upon seeing her again, Heero finds he does still care about her . . . and the story gets interesting when he finds that he only has one week to get her to love him again, because when she goes home, her boyfriend is going to propose.

Feel free to involve other pilots or characters, because this is just the basic plot. Have Fun!

*giggles gleefully*

Oh, this might be fun.....


What do you want it to be rated? *cackles*

I'm joking. I shall see what I can do...Though Fanga Alafiya, It's A Kid Thing, Of Mystical Gates, and It's Time, have me pretty tied up...I'd love a chance, though....^_^



LET THE WRITING BEGIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No I'm not...I only get impatient when I'm really, really interested in the story and the person is taking a long time to get the next thing up...kinda like J. K. Rowling ya know? I can't wait for Saturday! I'm going straight to Sam's...they're gonna have tons of Harry Potter books and they're gonna be cheap!:bounce::bounce:
Peace out! :D

I'll give it a try! *big grin* I'll make it XXX, too. *cackles like a mad-man and skips off*

So basically ... is this just to see who can come up with the best one??

Hey, this sounds like a cool challenge... I'll give it a try. I just have one request though... Could someone give me a guy's name? I'm so terrible with thinking up original guy's names... for some reason they're all J names. Jason, James, Jacob.... So could someone please give me a guy's name that doesn't start with J?

Thanks

Its a miracle! A new fic idea, and I didn't have to come up with it myself!! I'm glad we're all trying to break the cliches, however much we tend to like them! I'm in! Brilliant idea Caliborn. *grabs her pencil* mission accepted!!
