So, I'm poking around on Thesaurus.com (because when you're writing Spock dialogue, you need SYNONYMS!), and this week is apparently William Shakespeare's bday. Happy 449th, yo!
So there was a link to an article that included a list of words coined by or first seen in his writings. They are:
bedazzle
foul-mouthed
bedroom
swagger
well-bred
champion
droplet
pageantry
inaudible
eyeball
Dude - "bedazzle?" Srsly? Well, the dude ROCKED the pantaloons, so...
Aren't these just BEGGING to be fic prompts? So - even though I don't ever finish one of these, get thee to my comments and choose a word and a pairing in a fandom I write in and I'll give you a ficlety drably something or whatever (first come, first served - there are only ten). Go, now! Scoot!
But ooo! A catch: once a pairing is chosen, it's out of the running, so pick another.
meme me,
like i have time for this,
me - a challenge?
