Drabble Challenge - Post #1

[ubiquitousmixie]

Because of the large quantity of drabble requests (30!), I've decided to post them in groups of five as I write them. There's no rhyme or reason to which ones I've started with; it's just been as the inspiration comes to me. I really want these to have some thought behind them, so be patient.

Please comment and let me know what you think, even if

Yay, new stories have come out :-D!

Heart Doctor - Is it wrong that I find the whole 'OMG, people write naughty stories on the web about ladies in TV shows' genre of fic to be the most hilarious and cute thing you can find in fanfic? I love how you twisted it around so that C/E were looking at DWP and making all the observations we know are true? I can just see Erica becoming a DWP superfan somehow. And maybe finding that Callie has a thing about stilleto heels and using it to her advantage ;).

Such Civil War - Using an audible poem reading to tug at Andy's feelings, especially a sonnet was a great touch and I loved seeing her anguish at the abandonment. I thought that this one had a good color to it, and that you could've easily just used the sonnet to save words, but only used it in order to get into the story itself.

I also admire you for holding back orgasmic lust for Hilary and what I'm sure is 'I want to kick him in the balls' anger at Giuliani ;).

Running - Great prompt and great little tale. It was a bitter one for sure and the sadness Andrea felt really got to me, along with the hope that a simple little band could protect her. You have a way of writing Andrea that Weisberger could only hope she could connect to...though really, Andrea in that book was plain unforgivable, so since this is movie Andrea, I love it much more.

Precious Moments - I still never got over Dana's death and I felt like the show lost its voice a bit after her passing. I just always pictured Alice forever searching for a new Dana and never finding her because that woman was one of a kind. You got to me with this one and I just love how you kept her voice a bit snarky at the start and she showed her heart at the end, which is why I love Alice so much. She'll never forget that woman and it shows in this work.

Connections - Ha! You thought I was going to forget about my own prompt, right? Well I wanted to save it for last because the others deserve equal consideration :).

And you know I'm going to say that this needs more than 432 words, right? It was just awesome to see Lorelai feel so comfortable in the Planet and enjoying everything about it. The impromptuness of her reason for being there was also surprising to me in a great way.

Finally she gets to meet Alice and my heart lept up. It was better than I pictured, how she felt a bit jarred that Lorelai didn't know about The Chart. It was just a bit frustrating that they didn't share too many words after the introduction, but I still really loved it, how Lorelai fell in very easily with Alice and how they just compliment each other so easily. I'm hoping that this can be expanded...pretty please :-D?:!

Awesome job on these...I'm so happy you're writing all of these, hon!

i'm super duper happy that you're liking these so much, and even more happy that you liked your prompt! i was a little nervous about what to do with them because i couldn't just throw them in the middle of a situation and have it make sense. juuuuust maybe i will expand it someday for you :)

thanks so much for your constant support!!
