you make my heart go giddy up

In response to Rahaeli's recent suggestions on Bluesky (I think) about the way LiveJournal is going, I thought it might be a good idea to see if I could figure out how to import the fic_requests community. Back in the day it provided very considerable inspiration for me—I should think at least fifty of my ficlets were inspired by something in that community.

And I noticed a community on my DW that I had completely forgotten existed. It is called popslash_lollipops and it is, in fact, a repository of the fic_requests community from the old popslash-on-LiveJournal days. I don't think there's any point attempting to import the Index, which wouldn't work anyway as all the links will be different, but the stories (or at least the links) are here on DW.

I certainly remember fic-requests inspiring several of my ficlets, especially in my early years. I'd forgotton about the imported community, but see I am signed up for it.
