bellatemple is bored and doing this meme. I am also bored, so I am also doing this meme. It made sense.

Comment with a story I've written, and I will tell you something I knew, learned, or wondered about while writing it that didn't make it onto the page.
I love it when people do this meme or versions of it because I know from my own experience how much cool ( Read more... )

I know, man, one of these days it's going to happen. (Along with a new parody script for Gen Fic Day, a Generic Episode for S3 of SPN, more SPN fic, and all the other things I keep saying I'm going to do...)

Okay so:

I think after the team left Menandi asked to take the test again and found herself a lot more unsettled by it than she had been the first time she took it when she was young. I think she thought long and hard about how Sam looked at her before leaving, and about her father and sister when they left, and eventually I think something shifted for her and she could just accept the choice she made originally. It's possible that she "took the wandering sorrow" as she would put it, and left to join her father and sister on the planet's surface. I'd like to think that she made the same choice as Sam and was Accepted. Either way, I'm afraid she wouldn't be her happy self anymore.

Dang, I can't say "Barefoot Girl" yet.

Umm...how 'bout "Overheard in the ICU"?

Hee, how 'bout both!

Barefoot Girl:

Alba sees Dean twice when Henry is with her, once when she is seven and once when she is eleven. Both times she takes pains to avoid running into him because if she had to introduce them, she knows she'd feel illogically guilty that she still gets to hang out with her dead dad when his is gone for good.

Overheard in the ICU:

There wasn't a lot that didn't make it into this fic (it's so wee). But I really wanted to work in a reference to a past dating relationship between Janet and House. I figure they knew each other in med school, dated for a while, and split when Janet realized that he was more trouble than he was worth (I suspect this was true even before the whole thing with his leg). Also, he mocked her desire to join the military because he knew she was a gifted doctor and he thought it was a crime to waste her on severed arteries and snake bites.

Hm, that's a hard one.

I tried a couple of times to get Susan's husband and kids to actually be characters and have a more visible influence over her slow return to Narnia as seen in the story. They're mentioned, but they don't even have dialog and none of them is anywhere near as instrumental as Jane, who is just a friend. But she just sort of wandered up to Susan and started chatting and offering to take her to the country, and that worked and the scenes with her flowed so much better than anything I'd tried to write with the husband and kids, who refused to have any sort of color. So it is what it is, though I can't imagine anyone as important as husband or child could not of been important to Susan's journey in some way or another ( ... )

Officer Danny Carrington met his quota for the day, but he got hit with another purse before the end of his shift. Dean got a triple chocolate chip mocha fudge sundae. Sam totally did not believe any part of his story and accused Dean of making a side-trip during his records run to make the ice cream voucher at a copy shop for the fun of it. He told Dean this was pathetic because credit card fraud was one thing, but bilking some nice lady that owned an ice cream parlor out of a few bucks was just sad. He ate half of the sundae, though.
