Favourite Fanfic Quotations... Past & Present
So I have this really odd habit... when reading fanfics, listening to music, and watching T.V, I tend to write down any lines I find humerous or thought-provoking. While chatting to csikat today I decied that I would post my favourites from fanfics past and present. The sad thing is that most of these are from so many years ago ( 4 or 5!!) that I totally don't remember who I should be crediting.. which is sad... So just let me send credit out to any and all fanfic authors!! Most of you do an amazingly accurate job of protraying our most loved characters from books, movies, television, and comic book (I read once that if something exists, there are fics about it... ). So here are my favourite quotations from the best fanfics from all sorts of genres!!! Again, thanks to all you amazing authors!!! Warning.. some of these aren't exactly PG.. and some even contain *gasp* slash references!!
Harry Potter
1. “Neville. You wouldn’t know a cunning plan if it came up to you with a large sign that said, ‘Ask me about my cunning plan,’” Draco said.
2. Draco: And he might turn purple and dance around naked shouting "I'm a fuzzy frog" at the top of his lungs, but it just isn't in the cards, baby.
3. If velvet could speak, it would sound like Rickman
4. “Quello che voi siete noi eravamo; quello che noi siamo voi sarete.”
“Translation?” he queried into her ear. Hermione fought the urge to lean into that warm, intimate tickle.
“That which you are, we were; that which we are, you will be.”
5. Reality. And not just the obvious oh-my-God-I’m-not-a-virgin-anymore, I-can-never-touch-a-unicorn-again, I-hope-my-dad-never-finds-out Post-Coital Panic.
6. He couldn’t think of one other thing he’d done, ever, that had taken so little actual thought, while requiring such a high B-to-B ratio.
That was to say, balls-to-brains. (Draco kissing Hermione)
7. One minute, she thought furiously, he’s soft-voiced and insinuating and, despite all physical indications to the contrary, the Sexiest Man Alive. (Hermione about Snape)
8. It had never happened before, so he wasn’t entirely sure. But unless he was gravely mistaken, he was in love. (Percy about Oliver)
9. Okay, Hermione thought, this afternoon had now officially moved waaaaay beyond ‘odd’, and was turning left at the signpost marked ‘Salvador Dalí’.
10. He held her open, and he brought her up, and he sent her over. (I believe this one was Snape/Hermione too)
11. Ron really wouldn't recognise a rhetorical statement if it wore an illuminated sign.
12. Sometimes I wonder if it is possible to love someone so much your very body aches. If it's a common thing to feel as if every cell burned for that special someone, that if something ever happened to them your blood would be replaced with fire and glass. (Percy in his diary about Oliver)
13. Severus: You were so afraid of what could happen to you that you… frowned?
Sirius: Yes, who do you think you are? Alan Rickman? and my raised eyebrow beats a troll!
14. Severus: *Why is everyone so stupid and I’m such a supreme being? look*
15. Sirius: *pulls Lucius closer and marvels at his newly-made Siriusburger*
16. In our potion next I splash
Leather slacks I wore in Slash,
Milkbone on which Fluffy chews
Fanfic starring Mary Sue
Choc'late bar of Remus Lupin
Winky's bowl that she slurps soup in
Discarded scene from Chamber's script
Rumored Ron & Hermy ship
Old PlayStation smashed by Dudley
Critter that Hagrid thinks cuddly
Snitch that scored in Chudley win
Piece of Viktor Krum sharkfin
Riddle's message Ginny scrawled on
For the ingredients of our cauldron.
17. PURISTS
Whenever there's danger
He shows the white feather
FANDOM
Who cares about that, he looks good in leather
18.Do these people even realise how Freudian this picture is? (Then again, maybe sometimes a broomstick really is just a broomstick. Unless, of course, you're Oliver.
19. Secondly, if you weren't so obsessed with hurling things (bludgers, Percy Weasley, etc) at my groin, there wouldn't be a problem. (Oliver)
20. Do you smell that? It’s fanboy, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. (This was in an MST, it's Lucious to Draco)
Lord of the Rings
1. If once was all he would have, once would have to do forever. (Legolas... don't remember with whom)
2. Legolas did not tease, but sought to worship. (with Strider)
3. "Let me draw you into the light, King of Gondor. Find your peace within my body and let it strengthen you." (Legolas/Strider)
Stargate
1. They missed the laughter and the arguments almost as much as they missed the hot and steamy sex. (Jack/Sam)
2. Despite himself Jack sounded petulant, like a child who hadn't got his way.
3. ...and it was then that she suddenly remembered why wearing a skirt was the best thing in the world... (Sam)
4. Is it not the way of the Tau'ri to take comfort where you may? (Teal'c)
5. it was her intelligence, her compassion and her bravery that had finally won the old soldier's heart. (Jack/Sam)
6."I'm fine," the coldness in her voice seemed to drop the temperature in the room. (Sam)
7. He was funny, sharp-witted and playful - she liked him very much. And the fact that he was unbelievably sexy had nothing to do with it. Nuh uhh. Nothin' at all. (Jack/Sam)
8. At some point, they'd crossed over the line of innocent flirting and some of their conversations were so sexually charged, Sam was beginning to need a cigarette after each one.
9. Saying he was 'packing' would have been an understatement. (This one still cracks me up.. I believe it was Sam and Teal'c...)
10. Definitely not the missing member of our team with green eyes and an ass that could crack walnuts. (Jack about Jonas)
11. And I will deny any and all accusations that the only reason I reacted so quickly was because all I saw was the ass that had been the star of the majority of my fantasies fast disappearing into the distance. I’m a Special Forces operative, a finely honed weapon of superb cunning and skill that….Oh, who the hell am I kidding? It was the ass. (Jack about Jonas)
12. I hurry across to the couch and find a crumpled alien lying on the floor and staring up at me reproachfully in the moonlight. (Jack/Jonas)
13. A genuine, light-up-a-pitch-black-room Jonas Quinn grin almost blinds me (Jack/Jonas)
14. Nope, definitely didn’t see it getting this extreme between us first time out of the gate. Pardon the pun. (Jack/Jonas)
15. Oh man, why me? I ask you, have I really been such a bad person over the years that I deserve this? I know I was a little ticked before when he so loftily informed me that he wasn’t exactly a newcomer to the manly side of the bedroom Olympics but I got over it pretty quickly when I realised that it meant I could look forward to nailing him to the mattress without worrying about calming any pesky virginal qualms. I tell ya, somewhere in the cosmos there’s a hell full of snakeheads that I’ve blown to shit all laughing their wriggling little asses off at me. Possibly with Apophis leading the ‘na-na-na’ section. Crap. (Jack/Jonas)
16.All the same, it can’t hurt to put in a call to Thor in the morning. I hear the ass end of the universe is very nice this time of year. (Jack)
17. “But see, I’ve got the perfect solution!” He stands up straighter, throws his arms out, and puts on what he knows is his most charming grin. “A Jonas sandwich!”
18. The looks he keeps sneaking are as close to scorching as propriety'll let him. (Jonas)
19. "Working hard, Major?" The colonel asked glibly.
"Sir," was all she could manage as she let her hand holding the weapon fall to her side. Martouf slowly extracted his hand from her chest, returning to circle her waist, and made no move to release her.
Jack stood with his hands in his pockets, obviously unimpressed. "Am I interrupting something besides a weapons demonstration?"
"Nothing that can not be continued in your absence," Martouf challenged.
Sam almost smiled. (This is from my all-time favourite Sam/Martouf fanfic, it's insanely well-written! It's called 'The One You Hold')
Torchwood
1. Since the world wasn't ending after all, at least not that day, everyone had gone home.
2. Jack leaned in to the screen, studying the weather map. Absently, his hand slid down to rest around Ianto’s waist. Ianto closed his eyes, and a cold chill ran down his spine. Trust Harkness to flirt without even noticing.
3. Jack was probably out somewhere, taking out his misery on some lucky partner
4. anywhere on Earth, a smile and a nod from Jack Harkness was all it took.
5. If anticipation had a scent, it would be ink and testosterone. (I believe this was Jack thinking)

9. Ianto was certain that there was no more glorious a creature in the universe as Captain Jack in the throes of passion.
10. on Jack it looked beautifully vulgar and raw.
11. If there was anything more reliable than a sunrise it was Jack's libido
12. The push forward was poetry in motion, a completion too great for words or even thoughts to acknowledge. (Jack/Ianto)
13. The air tasted like love, a pheromone symphony, the chemistry of a dream. (Jack/Ianto)
14. I blame Ianto, he must be putting ‘Gay’ in the coffee (Owen's Diary)

16. Jack: Good sense is overrated.
Ianto: Aye, but you shouldn’t speak ill of something you haven’t tried
17. You’re making that face you make when I serve you Instant and you’re trying to figure out why (Ianto to Jack)
18. Jack grinned, and the look in his eyes was so thoroughly filthy that it sent a jolt of feeling straight to Ianto’s groin
19. Repetition and elaboration, lovemaking as fractal art. (Jack/Ianto)
20. Watching Jack eat always amazed Ianto. It was hypnotic, in a vaguely disturbing way.
21. Five billion years into the future, the Face of Bo sings his ancient songs and those able to hear him weep for love.
22. Ianto could have pulled away, or taken a step back, but he didn't. He barely even considered it.
23. Jack kissed the way he did everything -- with total focus and commitment. His mouth was hot, his lips soft, and his tongue... was something unto itself.
24. No need for Welsh reserve (Jack about Ianto)
25. Ianto had never seen quite that expression on his face before -- it wasn't the typical grin, nor was it the revealing smile they'd shared earlier. It was something else entirely, something intense. Something demanding, and just a little bit terrifying.
26. Jack stopped kissing long enough to whisper in his ear, his voice throaty, intimate, urgent. "You want this." It almost wasn't a question.
27. Jack was the one who was beautiful, his hair tousled, his skin lightly slicked with sweat, cheeks flushed, eyes dark with passion.
