I have my homework done on time, I have everything packed, it's looking like I might finally get some sleep...and then I stay up late writing.

I also blame my writing for how badly I did on that take-home Bio quiz. How was I supposed to answer questions in my distracted state?

So I might as well post what it was that kept me up this late, right?

Ooh! *cackles* I remember coming up with this meme - a particularly slow day at work, I think.

This is absolutely amazing - I'm actually fairly familiar with all five fandoms (though I have fallen way behind on L&O and, uh, all three CSIs, sadly), which made me squee. :D

I particularly loved the Doctor Who one - you took what could've been, y'know, done a billion times before and made it absolutely and beautifully unique. Awesome! :D

I'm really hoping this meme catches on again - I love reading what people come up with! *crosses fingers*

Edit: Whoops. Totally random icon! Hee!

Oh, I'm so glad you like the Who ficlet. I really, really wanted to do something other than Doctor/Martha, since, like you said, that's been done a billion times before, but nothing else seemed to fit the prompt as well. I'm happy it turned out okay. :)

And this is an excellent meme - much though I whine about staying up late, it was a lot of fun to do. Trying to capture the feeling of the prompt in just 50 words was quite a challenge!

I'm hoping this spreads as well; I haven't seen a meme quite like it, and it's sure to trigger some unique responses. I might do it again, actually, at some point when it's not as late.

Um...guh. These are all so gorgeous, especially in relation to the prompts. I tried and utterly failed at this meme, so the fact that you got five successful mini-drabbles written is incredibly impressive.

Especially the one for Doctor Who, which is just...how did you manage to involve Martha, even unrequited, and make me love it? How?? I'm going to memorize that one and possibly quote part of it (with credit and your permission, if I may) somewhere during my season 3 reviews, if I ever get there, because it's just so very illustrative.

But I also really liked the line in the first one, "You could die in the Mojave any time, but August makes you believe it", and the whole tone of the one for Law & Order.

I'm happy you enjoyed them! Making sure the ficlets had any relation to the prompts was probably the most difficult bit of it, since there's all that meaning to be packed into 50 words. And it is harder than it looks, isn't it. (But I still encourage you to try it, because I selfishly want to see what you'd come up with.)

And feel free to quote as you wish - I'm very happy that I could make Season 3 sound good for you. :D Thank you!

*lubs them*

Remind me to do this one, wouldja? I always forget the cool memes. :(

These drabbles are wonderful! I'd do the meme, but sadly, I don't have five fandoms.

[stunt_muppet]

Perhaps you could use five characters, arranging their names in alphabetical order?

(I say this because I really want to see what you'd come up with for something like this, and I am frantically trying to tweak the rules.)

[officerjudy]

I followed your suggestion, and did the meme. It's here.
