I seem to be attracted to lighthearted fandoms, only to inevitably write fan fiction where all of the characters are killed brutally. Ah, well. It happens.
Working Title: Never-Ending Girls' Alliance
Fandom: Hunger Games/K-ON! crossover
Genre Tags: Horror/Tragedy
Length: Short multichapter (probably six chapters)
Protagonist: None specifically.
Other Main Characters: Yui, Ritsu, Mio, Tsumugi, and Azusa. Due to being the same gender, they will all have to be from different districts. I'm keeping the Japanese names to keep track of them more easily.
Antagonist: Various original characters, Careers or otherwise.
Plot: The main characters are reaped; all but Azusa (who joins mid-Games) form an alliance and go in together. The actual story consists of a short introduction and one chapter for each member who dies (and possibly one for the Victor, if it's one of them).
Setting: The 59th annual Hunger Games, held in a school-like arena (without roofs).
Point of View: Third person, omniscient.
I thought trying to pare everything down into a few clips would be interesting, as opposed to doing a whole novel. I'm not overly inspired for this, so I don't want to spend too much time with it, although I do want to experiment.
I think the idea of cutting it down into just a few chapters, one for each death, is really good. Obviously you don't want to write a long multichip for something you're not super inspired about, and this way it can seem more like a poetic series of one-shots, rather than an overly short story.
