MST finished! by Laburnum & Elcalion on 2010-05-30 13:29:00 UTC Reply

So, we've finished MSTing. This MST is rated NC-17, and is real-person fic, so if you're squicked by that you may want to avoid it. Much fun, though.

I feel sorry for Russel in this, though. Everyone always forgets about him, and Murdoc didn't even bother to explain to the guys who he was. (In case you're wondering, he's the drummer, and he has several ghosts living in his head. Sadly the fanwriters don't seem to like him, apparently because he's a fat guy, or because he doesn't have as much HoYay with 2D - the cute one - as Murdoc does.)

I think I'm gonna have to illustrate this. Undecided as to whether the pillowfight or Murdoc's expression upon the sudden appearance of the shotgun would be more fun :)

Glad you had fun :) by Laburnum on 2010-06-04 14:25:00 UTC Reply

Gotta do this again some time. Tell me if you ever run across anything which looks like it needs MSTing.

Very nice! by anamia on 2010-05-31 18:57:00 UTC Reply

Though I'm not certain whether to congratulate you for a very well done riff, or to commiserate with you for having to actually read the gorram thing. Either way, I enjoyed it greatly!

As my agent counterpart said, it's not all THAT bad. by Laburnum on 2010-05-31 19:41:00 UTC Reply

Murdoc was very disappointed to realise that he won't suddenly be able to teleport just because a badficcer says so, though :)

If anyone wants to PPC this thing, I'd be interested in reading it. I don't know enough about Jamie and Damon's normal selves to judge how OOC they are, other than "very", and I'm not quite sure how to handle the Roger Rabbit Effect with Murdoc and 2D.

Sadly, I'd never heard of the fandom until today. by anamia on 2010-05-31 21:19:00 UTC Reply

Thus, I will not be volunteering to PPC it. And, while it's perhaps not all that bad compared to many other things, it's still pretty bad. I think it really started getting to me when one of them (don't remember which) started talking about doing a 69. That just sounds like 14 year old boys talking (though probably not to each other), and it completely cracked whatever willing suspension of disbelief I'd had up until then. Oh, and of course the ex-girlfriend randomly popping in. Seems like a lot of people randomly pop into that house at the exact time the plot needs them to...

Okay, anyone else familiar enough with these guys to try it? by Laburnum on 2010-05-31 21:45:00 UTC Reply

In and out of existence as well as the house. Jamie, Damon, Dennis Hopper, and Suzi are/were actual people (Dennis Hopper sadly passed away only a couple days back), but 2D and Murdoc are cartoon characters created by Jamie and Damon. Within the Gorillaz cartoon canon that's actually workable, as they occasionally demonstrate knowledge that they are cartoon characters. (Murdoc shrugged off murder charges after using a staged accident during the "El Manana" music video to kill a stalker of his because "I'm a cartoon, I don't even have fingerprints", and 2D claimed paternity suits from non-cartoon women don't stick because he doesn't have any DNA.) However, this fic was posted on a real-person-fic community, so, as you can see, I was a tad confused by the fact that nobody thought anything was odd about the cartoon characters wandering around. Also, even though they're 'toons, they can't shrug off car accidents and they don't normally have Malletspace.

Bravo, excellent work! I especially like how you managed to portray Murdoc in this.

And also, R.I.P. Mister Dennis Hopper (sheesh, what is it with celebrities and dying in the summer? It was just as bad last year!)

Murdoc's a lot of fun to riff with. by Laburnum on 2010-05-30 16:02:00 UTC Reply

A character with a wide-ranging sense of humour is pretty useful when you need variety in riffs.
