Ficcish Bandwagons, how I love thee!

[aeron_lanart]

There's a fic meme floating around on my flist started by donutsweeper and mad_jaks which I wasn't going to succumb to, but having read what other people are making of it, it looks like too much fun!

Give me a title and I shall write a snippet for it in several different fandoms of my choosing. Using song titles and snippets of lyrics is perfectly acceptable as

...and that you'd never lose that light in your eyes

Firefly/Dresden FilesSimon contemplated the item that had been thrust unexpectedly into his hands with a hissed whisper on their last stop for supplies, but was still no closer to understanding its purpose. He was disturbed from his thoughts by the unmistakable sound of Jayne stomping toward the med bay

I love the Ianto snippet. That's a great sentiment and a lot of story in a small amount of words.

[aeron_lanart]

The Ianto one is the closest any of these come to complete, and it's only 67 words. This makes me happy!

As for the Dresden Files/Firefly thing I had an attack of what if and I just *had* to do it!

A Thousand Kisses Deep (song title from Leonard Cohen)

A Thousand Kisses Deep

Highlander/Torchwood

Methos tore into Ianto’s heart and soul with every kiss and whispered endearment, ripping away the poisonous layers of his impassivity until there was nothing left but himself and nothing mattered apart from where the next touch would fall.

Doctor WhoRose stepped onto the balcony, taking a deep breath of the scented air. The sunset was now only the merest hint of a glow in the violet sky but the light of the moons sparkled on the crystal clear waters of the lake

[vipersweb]

whee! I like them both. I especially like the first one, but you would know why...

[aeron_lanart]

I might actually *use* the title for a Methos/Ianto fic, I think it fits them really well. Maybe after I do BigBang. Maybe if I drop out of BigBang...

As for the second one, the bloody 'lake of a thousand kisses' wouldn't leave me alone! I've never done Nine/Jack/Rose before but the mental image I got with the name had Rose in it and in my head Rose has to have those two with her!

"Yesterday I was sucking on a Cigar, today it's a Polo mint"

(paraphrasing The Kinks)

or if that doesn't inspire:

"Ten Men Went to Mow"

Firefly

I'm not sure I'm ever going to recover from the trauma of seeing my little sister dance around half naked in the company of a licensed Companion singing 'I Feel Pretty' at the top of her voice. It seems River grew up without me realising. I wonder what the cost will be to my broken and yet still childlike sister?

Hitchikers Guide/Doctor Who

"Ah, Mr Beeblebrox, so pleased to meet you at last. Now you really must stop jumping improbably around reality like a lost ping-pong ball, I don't think you've any idea just how discontinuous you're making the space-time continuum and I'm not sure you'll enjoy the consequences if you *do* continue. There'd be no more Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters for a start, and you wouldn't like the universe without Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters, would you?"

"No." Zaphod frowned vaguely at the brown clad figure almost bouncing on his toes in front of him. "Say, little man. Just how do you do that froody thing with your hair?"

[vipersweb]

*snicker* Oh gods... the last one is awesome.

[aeron_lanart]

Glad you like! I can't help thinking that Zaphod would be somewhat envious of the living entity that is Ten's hair.

"Chain of Fools" by Aretha franklin if you are still doing this

[aeron_lanart]

I am, but I'm working my way through them slowly! Yours is now on the list!

[aeron_lanart]

Chain of Fools

I'm kind of cheating again with this one as they both share a fandom. But this is what the muses demanded!

Doctor Who/DarkoverDonna was glad of the fur lined hood of her coat, the wind was bitter and she could taste snow on the air. She shivered

[merucha]

Jesus. Darkover??? That rings some old bells... *scurries off to the bookcase*
