Stump the writer meme

[unfeathered]

I am feeling very yukky with cold (though still fortunately no fever) so god knows how well I do with this, but I'm game for a laugh! *g*

Snagged off karaokegal:

A) Go to my fics (fandom tagged accordingly), and pick out a line or three from one of my stories. (Must be a full line, please — no sentence fragments or speech tags or other such nonsense.)

B) I will respond with which story of mine I think it's from.

C) A drabble (ficlet) to anyone who stumps me.

WOW that's brave - researching in my first fandom this week I found a story I don't remember *writing* at all....

*sniggers* Really? Wow. I've had things I'd forgotten I'd posted, but nothing (so far) that I don't remember *writing*!

And when I was writing *still* writing in that fandom I once had to mail kethni with a snippet of something and say "Did I write this? Have you beta'd it for me?" Or have I've copy and pasted it from somewhere because it spoke to me when I read it... *facepalms*

Oh dear! *pets you*

This sounds scarily familiar - I'm fairly certain that I wouldn't be able to spot a lot of my ancient Trek fics (unless there were names mentioned) if I did this though I do remember most of the stuff from the last 2 years. Most. I sometimes find things on the hard drive and think 'when did I write that?' the one about Jack and Myfanwy that I posted recently being a good example.

I'm so glad I am not alone.

So far I've been seriously blank on all the quotes. Last time I was doing much better. Here's yours:

Or possibly he's just nervous and trying to cover it with conversation.

Oh goodness. Yeah, that's *not* easy! Sounds familiar, like I ought to be able to place it, and yet...

*goes to bed and hopes the context appears in my brain overnight*

Oh! Is it the Rose/Ten/Ten one? What you Want?

Lessons Learned. :)

[unfeathered]

Ack. That was a long time ago! *g*

I had a feeling I was on the wrong track with Ten, but it just felt like a Ten sort of thing...

Ah well. You may claim your prize! I'll do my best to write you something - the more specific a prompt the better at the moment. :-)

How about Jack at some point in the 20th century...one of the big events that he knows is coming but can't stop and how he feels about it.

[unfeathered]

Ooh, that sounds interesting, yes! :-)
