About "One Night at Hooligans"


*SPOILER ALERT*

"Hooligans" started out as a Valentine's Day challenge on the fan fiction area of EricNorthman.net. I thought, what the heck? I've read all the books. I could do this, especially since I'd written fan fiction in other fandoms.

It was originally just a five chapter story, but I had a fabulous dream one night about how to continue it. Dreams are where I get most of my story ideas, and I always keep a legal pad and pen on my night stand. With that in mind, and my scribbled notes, I decided to raise the stakes and do a bit more of a genre mash up, combining some of my favorites--mystery, mythology, the supernatural and fantasy. Sprinkled with a healthy dose of lust, of course.

As the story begins, Sookie is feeling sorry for herself that she is going to be alone on Valentine's Day. The timeline is three and a half months from the time of the Nevada takeover of Louisiana. She's both relieved and somewhat angry that she hasn't heard from Eric, especially since he said they were going to talk about what happened between them now that his memory was restored.

What she doesn't know is that Niall had asked Eric--actually ordered him--to give Sookie some time to recover from all the stress she had been under until Eric lets it slip. Niall was upset that Eric didn't allow her to complete her phone call to him during the takeover.

Sookie allows Amelia and Tara to talk her into going to Monroe for ladies night at Hooligans with them on Friday, February 13th. Tired of waiting to reconnect with Sookie, Eric takes matters into his own hands and plans something special for Sookie to remind her of what she was missing, enlisting her friends and cousins aid. Passions flare, and Sookie agrees to spend a night with Eric at his home.

However, something odd happened to Sookie earlier that night. She nearly hit a deer on the way home from work and crashed into a tree to avoid the animal. Claudine arrived just after the crash, acting a little strangely about the whole incident. Then later, as Eric drives Sookie to Shreveport, another deer runs in front of Eric's corvette.

Eric smells a rat and takes his sword to investigate the wooded area with cryptic instructions to Sookie to lock the car doors and only open the door to him if he can repeat words that they agreed upon. Returning after a short time, sans sword, he asks her to let him in. Acting somewhat unlike himself and having a lame excuse for losing his weapon, she denies his request.

To her surprise, he simply vanishes and suddenly there is a large wolf on top of Eric's pride and joy. Uh... that would be his shiny red corvette. When the wolf transforms into a man and tries to seduce her, Eric swoops in with his sword and has words with the man until he simply vanishes again.

This turn of events thrusts Sookie into danger from a legendary supe that will up her involvement in supernatural affairs and have all of them rallying around her. Sookie and Eric must find a way to keep ahead of the game and prevent a prophesied war that would take place on two planes of existence. In the process, Eric just might get a chance to settle an old score.

I introduce a new original character in this story, a Native American, Gabriel Bucking Horse, who is an old friend of Eric's. No, Gabriel is not the legendary supe threatening Sookie though he definitely has an interesting history. He is a different kind of supe, an ancient immortal skinwalker who also has some hidden talents.

A Coming of Age Eric Northman for "Happily Dead"

Meet young British actor, Alex Pettyfer, who recently starred in "I am Number Four." Just saw the movie and thought he was brilliant in it.


If I were a casting director for a mini-series on Eric's backstory, I would definitely cast this young man to play Eirik (Eric Northman) Haraldsson from age 15 to 20 something. I think he would be perfect. Just thought I'd share. If I was unable to cast him as Eric, I would cast him as Haeric (one of Eric's son's). He even has ASKars split chin thing going for him, though it isn't as visible in these photos as it was in the sci-fi  movie.
