hc_bingo, once again!

[arduinna]

If I sign up for hc_bingo enough, eventually I will actually manage to pull off a bingo, right?

This year's card:

therapy	whipping / flogging	broken bones	electrocution	cursed
plane crash	poltergeist	brainwashing	runaways	Stockholm syndrome
bruises	confession in desperate situation	WILD CARD	head trauma	unconsciousness
de-age	burns	poisoning	unrequited pining	interrogation
nervous breakdown	disappearing	taking care of somebody	telepathic trauma	grief

Most of this is stuff I haven't written, but hey, it's good to expand your comfort zones. And there are only a couple I'm eyeing particularly askance. Pretty good card, overall!

Oh, POI, you are so good to me.

Truly! ♥ ♥ ♥

Or, really, any one of my BSOs who might need to go undercover to do that particular deed against an antagonist. If I understand the phrase correctly, I think that sort of thing would count?

I guess I tend to interpret prompts as against our BSOs, not necessarily something they do, as part of their jobs, to others? But I don't know enough about the rules to make that call.

A type of self-harm performed in a back-against-the-wall situation, especially to save someone else. (Pause for a moment to run the scene through my head. Ahhh.)

YES! See, I've been so conditioned against it that I never even thought of something like that. (Mmm... yes, that scene.)

Oh oh oh you have a MEANINGFUL GLASSES ADJUSTMENT.

And crinkly-eyed Reese smile! ♥

But I don't know enough about the rules to make that call.

Me neither, at this point. *g* I'll run it past people who're more familiar with the whole bingo experience. But my thinking at present is that it could count, if the sexual-extortion our BSOs have to perform is the ultimate cause of the H in the H/C. (I mean, the episode "Laya" kind of does that to Scotty already, having his loathing of the whole process spark off a ton of distress, and a fight with Kelly...)

The rules also talk about how the prompt can be related to the H or the C, which seems to indicate some basic flexibility of interpretation (esp. rules 15 and 16 here), as long as the prompt is a central feature of the story and not just a passing detail ("After the mission where they did a lot of sexual extortion, it turns out Kelly and Scotty got lost in the Arctic and had to cuddle for warmth!").

But these are just my guesses, and I'll keep noodging those in the know for their thoughts.

*falls over* I will never get tired of that scene. Aiiiieeee.
