Challenge! Meme! Lies, all lies.
I want a fic challenge. Or, I want to participate in one. Or, um, I don't know. I kind of want a project that doesn't involve working on my dissertation, or what I'm currently doing at work.
I like the idea of a fandom meme, or something, but I lack the creativity to make one up, or the patince to find one. So - I have this madcap idea of doing a spin on ABC icons, or whatever it's called, only with fanfic or drabbles (probably drabbles): a drabble for a fandom beginning with each letter of the alphabet. So, not really a challenge, but for fun - and should prompt me to look some stuff up, and be involved. (Otherwise, it's back to ithurtsmybrain I go.) I'm going to ignore 'The' and 'A' at the beginning of titles, otherwise it'll never get done...
A - Alias - Hold Me
B - Babylon 5 - Shorn
C - Carnivale - Noose
D - Desperate Housewives
E - Enterprise
F - Fables - El Sueno de la Razon
G - Global Frequency
H - Harry Potter - Le Recit
I - The Invisibles
J - Jane Austen
K - Kill Bill
L - Lucifer
M - The Matrix
N - Narnia
O - The OC
P - Pirates of the Caribbean
Q - Quills
R - Red Dwarf
S - Serenity / Firefly - Monsters
T - Transmetropolitan
U - The Usual Suspects
V - V for Vendetta
W - The West Wing
X - The X-Files
Y - Y: The Last Man
Z - Zelde M'tana (a complete cheat, this one - Zelde M'Tana is one of the books in the Hulzein/Kerguelen saga, and is about a peripheral character. But I'm not writing for Zorro!)
My, that's a lot of Warren Ellis on there. Actually, that's a lot of comics, full stop. Most tv shows I watch/watched/am familiar with appear to start with the letters B, S, F, X and A. Hmmmm.
Anyone want to offer any prompts for the drabbles?
