What I'm working on in addition to life
Stolen from Sweet Novacaine:
Take any currently unfinished fics you have and write the first line/paragraph from each.
1.(original)"Hello? Ms. Johnson. Can you get Jeff? This is Kevin." The spikey-haired seventeen year old held on to the phone like his life depended on it as he waited and hoped that he was home.
"Hold on just a second." the woman's voice answered. Echoes of the name Geoffrey were heard ringing throughout the house. Kevin held his breath and hoped.
"I've got it Mom. Hello?" said a sleepy sounding voice from the other end.
"Jeff, this is Kevin." Contest entry. Still working on where the plot is going.
2.(Dir en grey fanfic)It always was a rush being on tour. The scream of the fans was like fire in one's veins, fueling the music which in turn caused more screaming. Die stood off to the side of the stage, leaning on a wall and watching a band that went before them play a bit. They were good, the singer's voice could be a bit better but they were good all the same. He closed his eyes and let the music just flow through his mind. It must've been the twentieth time that he had heard that same song since they'd been on tour but it still sounded great. I suck at writing romance and have currently run into a brain block. I have the first scene, how they meet/confront feelings for each other but I don't know where to go after that. I probably should read more romance and observe...as much as I dislike reading pure romance stories it might help.
3.(Lengend of Zelda fanfic)The white horse shook as it stopped its gallop and pulled to a stop near the red rocky walls that bordered the desert. The sun was setting, turning the sky as purple as the folds of the cloth covering her face and body.
"I'm sorry Jezibelle. I know I've been working you hard the past few days,” the rider cooed in a light, female voice, reaching over the silk reins to pat the horse's neck, "But we had to get away fast."This one has romance and an actual plot in it so it's considerably easier to write. I'm at the point where I'm pondering whether or not I should write some smut for it. It would definitely fit in, but as of now I'm between a fade-out and actually attempting to write some yuri-smut.
4.(Skyfall Fanfiction)Kiyami smiled as he walked through the colorful streets of Turesh'tai. Merchants yelled on either side of him, shouting their wares for all to hear. He wasn't really hearing any of it though, he was lost in the current merry mood he was in.
Kiyami had just gotten accepted into the Targan military, a very high honor. If things kept going his way, he might just make General within a short amount of time. Yes, today would be a great day, probably ending with a party and some very well built ladies. It hard to write the bad guys for me so I've gotten stuck with coming up with motivation for his "evil" deeds. If anyone has any ideas on something that seems noble, but could be evil ,let me know.
5.(V for Vendetta fanfiction)If you are reading this then you are already on the right track. You already know of the shadows your government casts on the truth, though perhaps not to the degree that it reaches. This record shall serve to guide you to my account as to how my body becamse twisted into the monstrous shell it now is and as to how I plan to make things right.
I know not who I was before the now-infamous incidents at St. Mary's and Larkhill Resttlement Camp. All I know is that I was a citizen of Britain and fully innocent and undeserving of the fate I was assigned. Not that I am arguing with my fate, but such welcome and unwelcome things at once are hard to reconcile.I have decided to completely scrap the original and rewrite the entire thing. I wrote the original without finishing the comics. Now that I have I feel I must fix my bastardized version, if only to make myself feel better.
That's what I'm working on at the moment. So I'm not lazy, really.
And maybe one day I'll actually write a real entry, a day when I'm not so brain dead.
