THE FANDOM DRABBLE CHALLENGE

Every person on your flist gets to request a drabble from you. In return, they have to post this in their livejournal and write a story for you. (If you don't have time, don't worry about it...think of these as gifts.) Post all fandoms you're willing to write for. Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your livejournal.

Rules:
1. The author can choose three relationships and three story arcs they will not write, per fandom.
2. The author can set what rating levels (G, PG, PG13, R, NC-17) they're willing to write for.
3. The drabbles can be no longer than 1,000 words.

Fandoms I will write: Um... X-Men, Veronica Mars :D, Buffy, Angel, Star Wars, I don't know... see my interests for things I like, and pretty much any of those. Or suggest something you think I like. :D

Things I will not write: I dunno, just request something and I'll let you know. Nothing too vulgar / bad or anything, I guess, but that goes without saying. :)

Ratings: All.

Note: Since my restrictions are so lax, I reserve the right to turn anything down at will. But I won't without a good reason. ♥ (taken verbatim from the awesome kireisarah, whose LJ username I always have to double-check for spelling XD;;)


Basically, I want to start writing again, maybe this'll help. Now, I do have a trial on Friday that I need to prepare for, and I'll likely be gone all weekend and Monday (long weekend, w00t), so it may take awhile. *nods*

Oh yes, new White Stripes album in June, woo! And the new single is on iTunes. :D *grooves*

t_g! Suprise me!

Alex waited until midnight on a weekday night, when he was relatively sure that his siblings were asleep, or at the very least not in their rooms.

The first stop was Jack’s room, since it was the closest, being in the boys’ dorm with him and all. He laid a cardboard box besides his door, which contained an authentic pint-sized glass from one of the pubs he’d frequented in Ireland. There was a shamrock engraved on the side of it, with a Gaelic phrase below it: ‘Adh mor!’, which meant ‘cheers!’*

Next was Julie’s room, the RA in the girls’ dorm. Beside her door, a brown parcel was placed, with a neat red bow wrapped around it. Inside was a first edition of Jane Austen’s Sense and Sensibility, all three separately bound volumes, which was the practice at the time. Alex had stumbled across it in an old book store and it had reminded him of her.

And then it was Katie’s room. He grinned a little at the decorations on her door, he’d maybe missed her a bit more than the others, not that he’d ever admit it. Her gift was left hanging on her door knob, a red beret that he’d gotten in France, with a small French flag sewn on the front of it. Alex had also added one flag pin for each country he’d visited, and there were quite a few of them.

Finally, he stopped by Leech’s door, leaving a small envelope for him there. His gift was something he’d seen in the airport on his way home, a novelty four leaf clover. It came in packaging that briefly described the leaf’s legend and how the leaf would bring its possessor good luck.

With all of his gifts distributed, Alex headed back to his room. He had meant to hand them out sooner, but he had to finish up his thesis first. Working on his paper as soon as he’d returned had been a downer, but passing out his gifts reminded him of when he’d gotten the items on his trip, and why he’d gotten them for everybody. It was only then that he realized that he was glad to be back.

((* according to a web site. I know no Gaelic. XD;;))

tnc!David ♥

David sat at his desk, staring down at his textbook. He had been studying for over three hours now since supper time, with no break. It was one of those nights where nothing would stick in his mind unless he read it over a dozen times or more. Nothing frustrated him more, especially after having spent an hour in class earlier that day with the knowledge coming to him so easily.

He stood up and stretched his legs, walking around the room a few times before sitting back down again. The clock read 8:47pm. Josh was out somewhere, probably with Laurie, he didn’t remember. His roommate had probably told him before he’d left, but David had been re-reading a passage over again and hadn’t paid attention, waving dismissively at his friend.

Why couldn’t he simply retain all of the knowledge he gleaned from others? That idea haunted at him, he’d had it several times before and each time it crept into his mind his thoughts lingered upon it more and more. If only there was a way that he could modify his powers, to make it so. He was secretly hoping for a guest lecturer, or a field trip to somewhere that would bring him closer to someone, anyone that might have an inkling on how he could go about accomplishing his dream. If he was close enough, he could pick up on the idea and approach them about it. They could formulate a plan, work out a way to...

But no, he was lost in his reverie again. David sighed and looked at the clock again. Fifteen minutes had passed since the last time he’d done so, and he was still on the same page, the same paragraph as then. That was it, he wasn’t getting anywhere with this tonight. He shut his book and stood to his feet again. Maybe he could visit Vanny, she always made things better. Anything would be better for him than struggling with his studies again. He opened the door and headed for the girls’ dorm, hoping that his girlfriend was free to help cheer him up.
