rurounihime: (cooties by fireelemental79)
So. Anyone remember that band fic that I posted a poll about? Poll here. Well, I have finally come up with a band name for the boys! In fact, let me give you the run-down.

Once again, this fic will be AU (no magic at all), with Harry and Draco making their way in the music world and all the trials and tribulations that come with it.

The consensus on song lyrics is this: I'll be using some of my own poetry, as well as some already famous song lyrics from current/past bands.

I ended up choosing my own band name, but I LOVE the suggestions I got on the poll. Absolutely wonderful. I have awarded prizes because you all made me chuckle, nod, or pump my fist in the air with your suggestions.

Most marvelously blunt goes to [livejournal.com profile] soberloki for "The Fuckers"

Most fangirly goes to [livejournal.com profile] si_ta for "IT SHOULD BE SNARRY! HARRY/SNAPE 2EVA!!!"

Most story-appropriate goes to [livejournal.com profile] mafan for "I like boys that like boys"

Most Ru-does-love-her-darkness goes to [livejournal.com profile] benightedfate for "Euthanasia"

Most Draco goes to [livejournal.com profile] spyderqueen for "Worship me"

Snarkiest goes to [livejournal.com profile] zedmeister for "GUH!"

Catchiest goes to [livejournal.com profile] beautifulslash for "Demonic Mnemonics"

Sexiest goes to [livejournal.com profile] dela for "Not Just Sex"

Most creative goes to [livejournal.com profile] dacro for "Panacea", "Dissolve", "Resolution", "Shimmer", and "Obscurum"

Most intriguing goes to [livejournal.com profile] rivent for "Sephiroth" (Sweets, I am soooo curious...)

Smoooooothest goes to [livejournal.com profile] cenas_plots for "Quicksilver"

Hottest goes to [livejournal.com profile] fireelemental79 for "Snake Skin Daddies"

(I am thinking right now that these could be titles of some of their songs... ^__^)

The band names I have chosen for my fic are...

The girls' band: Bellatrix
The rival band: The Dark Mark
Harry and Draco's band: The Sign of Two Houses

Thanks everyone for taking the poll. You got my brain juices flowing again, which was marvelous, seeing as I just could not THINK. *snogs each and every one of you*

Thanks. You really think so? *is hopeful*

Very much, it is great. And having been in several bands myself, I know the agony in trying to find a name!

I find that it is absolutely perfect.

Thank you so much! *loves* Ooh, you were in bands? Nice!

Sweet. Got any CDs out? *waits hopefully*

Well, I did a compilation a while back, and then there's several recordings, but nothing signed. We just do it for fun - after spending my teenage hood touring the coast, I realised that life is a lot less stressful without the touring :)

Haha, yeah, I bet. Seems like that would monopolize all of your time and energy. I bet it makes or breaks bands, you know? What kind of music do you play?

band

Date: 2005-01-18 09:19 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] ravenpan.livejournal.com
Currently? americana would be the best way to describe... everything from folkish sound, to jazzy sound, to borderline hardrock... I've got an mp3 of a song I did for the compilation, it's more celticy (a hymn) but if you send me your email (mine's in my ID area) I'll send you a link so you can hear it, if you wish.

Our band, Drums, Keys/vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Me on Electric Bass and vocals, and my Mate on electric guitar. It's fun - and I'm the only fem in the band *laughs*

But for now, more Darker Magic Draco-angst! Maybe later tonight or tomorrow. ^__^

*grin* yay, I got an award!! Euthanasia was actually the name of a band I wanted to start... and yeah, it is a bit dark. I'm maudlin at times...

I love the names you chose though! And I can't wait to read the story!! ^_^

Heh, I am a darkness fiend. I always tend to love the characters in movies who end up biting it at the end, I read depressing stuff just for kicks, and I watch animes that KILL me over and over again. My fave movies are 28 Days Later and Saving Private Ryan.

^__^

Thanks, my dear! I love the name you offered. Aw, I wish I could be in a band too... *sigh*

Date: 2005-01-16 04:40 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] dacro.livejournal.com
oooh! Snake Skin Daddies? **rowr**

Great work with the band names, and thanks for the award! woot! *smooch*

Date: 2005-01-16 04:46 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] rurounihime.livejournal.com
Thanks! And yeah, Fire's was fun. As were yours. *kiss* I loved the results of this poll....

Date: 2005-01-16 06:16 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] dacro.livejournal.com
*kisses*
yeah, lots of great results. Thanks for making the 'awards'.

OMG!!!

*fights off fangirl mode*

A band fic!?!? WEEEE!!! And we won't see even the tiniest of magic? You know the kind that happens to us everyday?
;) j/k

I'm looking forward to this fic, and I think it's the names that has me hooked. I especially love The Fuckers, but I guess that's been done:)

The Sign of Two Houses is awesome though... so perfect for them:D

Date: 2005-01-16 07:00 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] rurounihime.livejournal.com
Ooh, I am so glad you like The Sign of Two Houses! *is reeeely excited* I had the hardest time coming up with it. *kicks something*

Yeah, okay, so everyday magic is in. But not the sort of Hogwarts magic we all know and love. I won't be writing this one for a while, not until I'm done with The Simply Charming run. But I'll let you know. Right now there are a bunch of pieces of the fic on a file in my comp. Just need to fill in blanks and write the rest.

I'm marvelously blunt… ha! Of course I am. I just plain rock.

*sporfle*

I like the names you chose. Obscure, without a lot of baffling Latin to scare off the fangirls. Hee! And I'm hugely interested in this AU fic. I will be back.

Date: 2005-01-16 11:07 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] rurounihime.livejournal.com
Thanks, my luv! *hugs* My most blatant lady... ^__^

Heh, won't be for a while at least. I need to take care of some other fics first, but I am slowly but steadily adding to the chopped and broken scenes of this fic, and it will happen, no worries. Thanks again for the name! Charming and quite snarf-worthy.

The Sign of Two Houses is cool. Me likes it lots. Hmmm, they should have a really cool band symbol then, something that says the sign of two houses. Something to put on the bass drum, mark them as a group. Okay, I know I'm totally over thinking this now. I totally love that you'll take the names and make them song titles. Cause that is so much cooler. Makes me totally want to hear "The Fuckers," "Snarry," "Demonic Mnemonics," and "Sephiroth." I totally want to hear that song (mostly because I don't know what that word means."

Well, can't wait until you finish the Magic Trilogy. Then again, I'll probably be all, it has to end??!!!?? when you get there. But whatever. Nothing lasts forever.

Snogs you back for awards, but waiting for my new icon to go with my award. . . just kidding. *snog snog*

Okay, snog off.

Date: 2005-01-16 11:10 pm (UTC)From: [identity profile] rurounihime.livejournal.com
Haha, if I had an icon program I would totally try some out. As it is, I do not. Alas... ^_^

Good idea about the symbol. I will have to try to come up with something. And yeah, ending the Magic Trilogy will be startling to me, to say the least. I've invested so much thought and time into it... O.o

*hugs and snogs off*
