Find your way in a city: Original - Harris joseph_daniel March 9 2008, 02:11:17 UTC

He hadn't even left the house in years, let alone Pleasantview. In fifteen minutes or so, he found himself getting out of the subway car that took him into the city ( ... )

Wow, there are a lot of great imagery for this city. You really got a sense of how foreign it seemed to Harris. Great job!

Aw, how sad. I can just see this guy staring up at all the buildings and feeling so dwarfed and tiny!

Love this. We need to play some more.

the last time - tww - sam/will pocky_slash March 9 2008, 02:36:12 UTC

Um, AU after S4.

***

The last time Sam saw his apartment, he didn't expect it to be the last time.

"And there are extra linens in the closet," he said, leading Will through the small rooms. "Towels, sheets, stuff like that. But feel free to rifle through the drawers to find whatever you need, okay?"

He figured it wouldn't be a big deal. He'd be home soon enough, and maybe he could even convince Will to stay, just for a little while at first, but hopefully for longer. He was going to lose this, he knew it, and once he did there was no other option, no other office he could think about holding, and as he watched Will hold back a small smile and lightly touch shelves and drawers in the bedroom, he decided he was maybe mostly okay with that. It was Bartlet's second term and they didn't have to worry about reelection anymore. When this congressional run ruined his own career, he wouldn't have to worry about that either. For the first time in his life, he wouldn't have to worry about anything but his own feelings, but what he wanted ( ... )

Oh, so much LOVE for those two.

Noooo this is so sad! Poor Sam and all his shattered illusions :(

The Last Time: Discworld - Angua/Carrot bergann March 9 2008, 02:36:38 UTC

Angua has learnt by now that her definition of 'the last time' has loosned up more than she thought it could ever be. During her years in Ankh-Morpork, she's packed her things, given her dresses to Cheery and paid the last of her rent ten times - thinking it's her time to go. It's frustrating, how she knows that before Carrot, she would say 'goodbye' and actually mean it, but now she can barely walk two streets without turning around and deciding to stay for another day, another week.

He will come after her. Or at least, she likes to think he will. He came after her when she went with Gavin, but she doesn't know what that means - did he come because she offered no explanation? Because he thought she was in danger? Or because ... because maybe she's not just a puppy, but he's meeting her halfway in his own way?

But, and she knows this just as well as she knows the moon, there will be a time when that goodbye is going to be truly final - and she can live with it, over time, if she looks over her shoulder and finds that he's not there ( ... )

Angua! Carrot! Awwww! I love them and I loved this!

The last time- original armageddoni March 9 2008, 02:37:48 UTC

She smiled vaugely. She always had looked good in white. And even though it was number three, she knew in her heart that this was the last one.

The last time.

Or so she hoped.

She stood behind the door to the chapel, her heart beating rapidly. She could do this. They could do this.

The service seemed to last three seconds. Then, the question. The question that held the key to her future. She knew the answer, had practiced the answer many times.

She said it for the last time.

"I do."

You may kiss the bride.

There is an art to the sentence fragment and I think you've captured it beautiful here.
