Last-Line-First-Line Giles Drabble: William’s Dream

Mar 29, 2015 22:55

Rule is to reuse last line of a drabble as opening sentence here. Last sentence I’m using is, "A boy should be allowed dreams", by il-mio-capitano. I've finally got it down to 100 words, woohoo!

Title: William’s Dream

Length: 100

Rating: G/FRC

Disclaimer: Don’t own a thing, but Joss did say we could play.

“A boy should be allowed dreams,” thus inscribed. Giles ( Read more... )

Lovely! Poor William.

Thanks!

I'm afraid the last line is a bit of a nonstarter...

I can practically see Giles cleaning his glasses over that book)

LOL! I had to stop myself from writing about Giles cleaning his glasses. He does it all too often on the show and then again in fanfics! :)

Thanks! Yeah, hitting that perfect 100 words on this one really wasn't easy. I had a much longer scene in my head and getting just a coherent beginning down took a lot of wrangling.

User rbfvid referenced to your post from Tuesday, March 30 - Wednesday, April 1 saying: [...] William’s Dream [...]

I think this would probably cause Giles some confusion.

Yeah. It'd be hard for Giles to reconcile the two images of Spike: the vicious killer according to Council records, and a tender, Romantic poet (even as human).
