One Sentence Meme (Press Gang edition)

Jul 06, 2014 20:38

I just found this on my hard-drive - I did it a few weeks ago as a writing exercise and forgot about it. (And I'm definitely stretching the definition of a sentence to breaking point in some cases. Heh.) I can't remember where I found the meme - somewhere about.

One sentence Press Gang fics )

Those are great! My favourites are "Crack", "Crossover" and "UST". The latter especially made me laugh out loud, and is definitely, definitely canon. I'm sorry, Lynda, but it is. "Crack" is probably also canon. For some reason I just see that one happening, in one of those nice, random little moments they used to throw in. Great stuff! And I don't think you've stretched the definition of sentence at all. Your semi-colons are perfectly placed.

Thank you! And UST is canon, so much so I only hope I haven't nicked it word for word from one of the episodes.

Your semi-colons are perfectly placed.

*blushes* No one's ever said that to me before! :lol:

I love 'Crack'. The image is just beautiful...and hilarious.

Thanks for sharing these. I think word limits would be far easier to deal with.

:-) Crack is kind of inevitable really.

I decided by the end that a three sentence fic meme would have been easier, and I don't mind 50 words, or drabbles, but a sentence...! It is a fun exercise, though, to see what you can manage within the limit, and that's the only point really.

I am much amused. Well done!

You may have stretched the definition - but you didn't break it!

Thank you! I think I nearly broke some of the sentences, but I managed to hold on with some sticky tape and elastic. :lol:

I love these, especially as I've just been re-watching some Press Gang. I really like Colin selling the planet to aliens (he would), Spike passing three and a half exams (only he could pass half an exam) and Kenny being oblivious about the ice cream on Sam's nose.

Ha, I'd just been watching some of S2 yesterday - it was what reminded me I'd done this last time I'd watched a bit. :-)

And thank you! ♥

Aw, thank you! :-)

I don't know why it was a coffee shop AU. I think people keep talking about them. It probably should have been a space ship or something. Mind, it's hard to imagine Lynda not being obsessed with running a newspaper.
