Drabble Challenge, challenges 2,5 & 3, post 1/3 for burningeden

[mrschimpf]

I've decided the best thing to do for these challenges is post them as separate entries as I complete them when I get a chance. It turns out #4 did run away from me, so Chelle, it might be a couple days on that :). In the meantime I couldn't resist putting out the other four, and here are the three in sort-of drabble form (under 2,000 words each?

Chelle, I'm so happy that I did well by you. It was so hard trying to live up to someone who I respect and admire so much, and I knew when I wrote these that I had to do my best (that's what's holding up the final Caddie prompt right now...have to find a good ground).

I actually hadn't seen the kiss scene at all so I read synopsis and research to see how it went (because if I would've seen it I might've been prejudiced to picture it how a suit saw it). It was also a challenge since for me Susan and Gaby are the last characters I ever want to write.

Did you ever read my Bree/Katherine story BTW? It's here on this journal if you wanted to check it out ;).

Yes, Archer is sort of evil and a prick. I just wanted to make it a cute moment because come on, I'm not going to have those two get dirty in front of Addison's brother at all. I totally of course meant for Addison to be that threatening too...that was fun to have her put her older brother in line. Not that I would know how that felt (he says waringly as he remembers how his younger sister can kick his ass hard and he's a big spongy teddy bear).

And that third one? Honestly, it was the hardest among these because really, I don't like going with the 'we got married' thing. But with CT about to join the sane part of the United States in allowing it, I just had to picture Mohegan Sun in the near future becoming the new marriage mecca, if not to avoid a whole George vs. Erica marriage comparison thing, allowing me to tell how I saw Erica getting through Hopkins and being very, very smart.

If anything it allowed a portrayal of both Sara and Brooke naked. Like they were supposed to be in the first freakin' place ;). And the punchline I didn't think much of until the end when I was going to post and read it back, realizing "Oh yes, that's perfect!"

I totally had to have Addison witness to it too somehow, and get in my coupling choice if she had to stay in the PP world (annoying as it is, better Charlotte than anyone else).

I'm so glad you enjoyed these ((((((((hugs)))))))). I'm hoping that maybe these can drag you into GG for a story or two ;)?
