Yeah!!!
I am super terrible at keeping track of who I don’t and who I do know already on Tumblr or really any social media site, so generally speaking it is pretty much always okay to come flail at me at a thing I have demonstrated interest in, because I possibly won’t remember whether I know you or not? but also I’m here to mingle, man. I dig the exchange of ideas. (I’m just a somewhat flaky person sometimes so it’s possible i may not be enthused about a thing at this particular moment, and also I’m bad at answering asks. but I LOVE getting them, so.)
I saw a great trope that got saved to the morass of a hellpit that is my drafts folder, and it was something like– a honeypot mission fails when the seduction target’s self-esteem is too low for him to believe that the beautiful spy could actually honestly be flirting with him, but it turns out the spy really has fallen in love with him– and I’d love that to be Bodhi, and Cassian, somehow.
@anhamirak, I love every trope you proposed in your post, and definitely like some of the elements of them…
I have in the past hesitated to do any really way-off-from-reality things for a fic, like, “he’s a spy for the mob!” or whatever because… wtf… but I also don’t want to actually have to take this that seriously, so I’m really considering it. People do wildly unrealistic things (A/U where it’s normal Earth except everyone can fly!) kind of shit all the time, so why can’t I?
Cassian could totally be a spy for a non-governmental organization that totally could just– decide to quit and not have to go into the Witness Protection Program…
Or I have to make something up that’s complicated. I suppose that’s what’s holding me back, from that one.
