Hypothetical story meme

[resonant]

This is just the sort of thing I can't resist, and just the sort of thing that adds to my list of Stories That Will Probably Never Be Finished, but ... (taken from torch):

Pick a trope from this list and provide a fandom/pairing and I'll tell you something about the story I'd write for that combination (i.e. write a snippet from the story or write not!fic or tell you the title and summary for the story I would write)

1. genderswap
2. bodyswap
3. drunk!fic
4. huddling for warmth
5. pretending to be married
6. secretly a virgin
7. amnesia
8. cross-dressing
9. forced to share a bed
10. truth or dare
11. historical AU
12. accidental-baby-acquisition
13. apocalypse fic
14. telepathy
15. High School / College AU

I'll take any of the fandoms I've written in plus ... let's see, in the past year I've seen all three Men In Black movies, plus seasons 1-4 of Buffy and the first few eps of Angel (yeah, so late to the party that the house isn't even there any more).

8. Cross-dressing, please! Either Captain America or Avengers. ^_^

It was Bucky's idea, of course, and it was Bucky who stole the uniform from some poor gal's washing line, and it was Bucky who was going to reap the rewards of having an accomplice for just five minutes in the halls of St. Margaret's to hear what the secret was that Evie Low had promised to tell Dotty Collins after Chapel.

But of course it was inevitable that it would be Steve pulling the jumper over his head.

The jumper was wool, and itched right through the blouse, and it was a little whiffy, like whoever had washed it had been skimping on the laundry soap. Bucky had no more idea how to style a girl's hair than Steve did, and anyway no girl would ever wear her hair as short as Steve's. No girl would be caught dead in Steve's Oxfords, either, but there were no shoes hanging on the washing line.

And there was no damned reason for Bucky to make him wear girls' underdrawers.

I did more research for those four paragraphs of nonsense than I did for my entire last two stories. Also, a search for "Catholic school uniform 1930s" probably gets you more porn than a search for "porn."

*chortles* Thank you so much! Oh Steve, how do you let Bucky talk you into these things? *having fun imagining young!Steve in that outfit, now*

You know, the story was hysterical, but your commentary was what actually made me laugh out loud. XD
