can't fight this feeling: the power ballad slash ficathon

[marginalia]

you've been threatened with it for Some Time Now and so let's just get it over with, eh?

starfishchick & marginalia present:

Can't Fight This Feeling: The Power Ballad Slash Ficathon
(aka the least organized ficathon ever) here's all the stuff you need to know:

• minimum word count is 750. will we come beat you up if it's shorter? probably not. we're too lazy.
  
• the due date is *closes eyes and pokes calendar* november 5th. i'll post a master list then, but if you're -dying- to post early i certainly won't stop you.
  
• more than one person can claim the same song, because neither of us are organized enough to keep track anyway.
  
• and what you've all been waiting for . . .the songs! some suggestions in comments here or pick one of vh1's top 25. of course, this is just a starting point. if you have a beloved power ballad that we've left out, by god, tell us & use it!

still here? sign up in the comments like this:

• lj name/penname (so we know it's not just us)
• fandom (not carved in stone)
• chosen song (or tell us if you would like one assigned)

yay :)

GAH! I deleted the other comment because I hate LJ TAGS A LOT.

Ok, so ficathons aren't normally what I do seeing as how I'm fairly new to fic anyway, but dude. Power Ballads? LOVE THEM.

I'll figure out which fandom later.
House of Pain by Faster Pussycat.

Because when you pick a power ballad, you should pick out the one with the cheesiest, most melodramatic, incomprehensible lyrics ever.
