In addition:

some mood music :D

The Day Of - Ocean’s Twelve OST
A Little Less Conversation (the JLX Remix) - Elvis Presley
One for My Baby - Frank Sinatra
Luck be a Lady (Marlon Brando version) - Guys & Dolls
Clair de Lune (orchestral version) - Claude Debussy

And a helpful cast list


Warning(s): Technically, Gen’s the ‘bad guy’ in this story; no offense intended and I’m sure she’s lovely in real life. There are some Jew jokes/slurs spoken/worn by a Jewish person, or said in the context of a con job. And if you’re expecting a story that differs greatly from the movie, you’d best look elsewhere; this is basically my loveletter to its genius. You know, with porn.

Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction, inspired by and drawn greatly from the 2001 version of Ocean's Eleven. I am not claiming to know anything about these people's actual lives, nor claiming any ownership of the plot or the script of the film. I made up pretty much everything else; none of the places or artifacts actually exist, to my knowledge, and I’ve, uh, never worked at a museum or attended UW, although I am from the area and have two music degrees. No money or goods have changed hands in the making of this, and no profit is being made from this activity. And hey, don't be hatin, we just like the fuckin.

Dedication: For [livejournal.com profile] 24_centuries, who, upon hearing about this story, said this: ‘OBVIOUSLY THE COUCH AND CHAIR WILL BE SO POSH AND PERFECT AND THEY WILL SIT PRECISELY AND THERE WILL BE FOOD INVOLVED AND A BIT OF ALCOHOL, I PRESUME – ‘ And made me laugh for days. This story is nothing like that, girl, but I hope you like it anyway.

Sources/Inspirations/Notes/Etc: The original screenplay by Ted Griffin (with the utmost respect: I cannot improve upon perfection). Ocean's 12, as well. Bones. Sleepless in Seattle. My team of amazing awesome cheerleaders, who know who they are—They were with me for the long haul, you don’t even know, especially [livejournal.com profile] elucreh. [livejournal.com profile] claudia_nic, [livejournal.com profile] ijdtw65, and [livejournal.com profile] amine_eyes for the ‘omfg does this even make sense’ read-thrus. [livejournal.com profile] norfolkdumpling for taking pity on me and offering to do the graphics. I really cannot thank my friends enough, ever. IMDB. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Hook. Snatch. My former Counterpoint professor and former Head of Music. Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. brainyquote.com. And as always, the genius that is Aaron Sorkin.

I'm excited about getting to see this, since you have been so dedicated and excited about it! Congrats on finally getting to post! :)

(LOVE Debussy as mood music, too. In fact I've been listening to the Nocturnes as mood music for my NaNo novel this year, and it's working its magic quite well.)

OMG, YOU ARE SO SWEET. <3333.

And Um well it's kind of a cheat - this piece in particular is used as the transition from the climax to the resolution of the movie. It's a fucking genius music cue, as they're all watching the Bellagio fountain after they've pretty much conquered the world. Um, I like the movie a little, can you tell? XB BUT. DEBUSSY. I have a soft spot for him and his compatriots; so schmoopy but I don't even care. It's just beautiful stuff, period. ^^

I enjoyed this fic SO much! You really captured the feel of the movie while making it your own story. The characters, the plot, the twists and turns... you made me want to rewatch Ocean's Eleven! And the sex at the end there... unf.

Awesome fic was totally awesome.
