Past empty lots and early graves -- those like you who lost their way --
Once upon a time, lindensphinx invented the absolute coolest meme ever, and wrote a really amazing Winters & Nixon drabblet for it. (I am still hoping, somewhere, somehow, when her schedule stops eating her alive quite so much, that she writes more BoB fic. I am willing to wait. ♠) I have been trying to think how to adapt it to my plays (inasmuch as I'm more of a Lear-Macbeth-Cymbeline girl than a histories fan), but I haven't been able to come up with any sonnet exchanges or speeches quite as good as this one. So!
First. Select a character! From any fandom I know well, or original characters if you know them. (With the caveat that I may panic if you pick something terribly obscure, and ask nicely if you might pick again.)
Second. Assign that character to one of the following lines from Shakespeare's Richard III. Italics mean that line has already been claimed and the drabble is to come.
1. RICHARD: That was in thy rage. ( Ronald Speirs for ceitfianna)
2. Speak it again, and, even with the word ( Eugene Roe for chanter_greenie)
3. This hand, for which thy love did kill thy love ( Sam Winchester, for varadia)
4. Shall for thy love kill a far truer love. ( Eugene Roe for foofighter0234)
5. To both their deaths shalt thou be accessory. ( Ursa for bookelfe)
6. ANNE: I would I knew thy heart. ( Lewis Nixon for mardia)
7. RICHARD: 'Tis figured in my tongue.
8. ANNE: I fear me both are false.
9. RICHARD: Then never was man true. ( Prometheus for adiva_calandia)
10. ANNE: Well, well, put up your sword. ( Zachariah for clayworshippers)
11. RICHARD: Say then my peace is made. ( Joe Liebgott for eudaimon)
12. ANNE: That thou shalt know hereafter. ( Anna for winding_path)
13. RICHARD: But shall I live in hope? ( Harry Welsh for skew_whiff)
14. ANNE: All men I hope live so. ( Donald Malarkey for theartisan7)
15. RICHARD: Vouchsafe to wear this ring.
16. ANNE: To take is not to give. ( Alton More for pneumatique)
I write a drabble or fibit of at least 100 words, probably more!
4:52 PM All right, I am off the grid until 9ish this evening, probably, but please keep on adding requests! They're really exciting -- thanks for that! Happy SPN Day, everybody. <33333
