Who Knew Billy Shakes Was So Freaking Fabulous? A Meme

Apr 22, 2013 15:21

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?
