ladydrace | A little fun and games.

Sneaking around reading journals, I came across this little challenge which peeked my interest. Snatched from

tj_dragonblade, but since TJ snagged it from others, I hope I won't be killed from snagging it myself. :oP

*Post the first line from your 25 most recent fanfics and try to find a pattern.*

I think I can only just scrounge up 25 in all if I include things that are not complete. So bear with me. These are not in any chronoligal order.

1. “I can't believe you're doing this.” (Leaving Home)

2. Needl stepped in to the Lion's Pride Inn, nervously scanning her surroundings. (Warlocks)

3. He was dying. (The Debt)

4. She looked at him across the camp fire with a twang of sadness. (The Breakup)

5. The Bolian sitting at a single table at Quark's seemed extremely preoccupied with his view, so Quark of course seized the opportunity to swoop in and refill his drink. (A Bolian too young to die.)

6. Elim. They don't trust him. (All About Us.)

7. Dr. Julian Bashir was exhausted. (Cardassian Courtship)

8. Data and Geordi were working in main engineering at the end of their shift, while the Enterprise was docking for upgrades on one of it's rare visits to Earth. (Datalove. [working title])

9. Garak was drunk. (Drunk)

10. The chime of the door cut through Garak's brain like one of doctor Bashir's laser scalpels. (Hung Over)

11. It was late night in the mansion and along the dark corridor, a shadow was creeping. (Kitty Likes it Hard)

12. Garak heard the door of his small house open and close gently, just as he woke up. (Last Words)

13. The first time Julian had personally experienced the effects of the Mal'vek after moving in with Garak on Cardassia, it had come somewhat as a shock. (Mal'vek)

14. Kurt was sauntering leisurely across the lawn after gym class one day, when he saw a lonely figure sitting on the curb by the road. (Mine)

15. God I was bored. (Moth to a Snowflake)

16. "You know Elim, sex doesn't always have to be an hour long marathon. Haven't you ever heard of quickies?" (Quickie)

17. "What was that?" (Fart [working title])

18. The first thing that struck Rogue when she woke up, was how quiet it was. (Yet untitled ro/re)

19. It was sooo good. (Silver Pleasures)

20. Starpip stepped into Salty Sailor Tavern late in the afternoon, for once more in the mood for a cold beer than cruising for business as he usually did. (Booty Bay Encounter)

21. Kanei was only a few winters old, when he first heard the trees whisper to him. (The Rite)

(From here it's the unfinished stuff)

22. Why did Dukat always have to have whatever Garak wanted? (What Dukat Wants. [Working Title])

23. Todd Tolensky leaned heavily on the rusted fence at the dark construction site, taking a very deep drag off his cigarette. (Through the Fog)

24. “Don't you think you've had enough?” (Yet untitled van/carl)

25. It was a rare chilly day in the capitol. (Yet untitled G/B)

Now... a pattern? Gee I dunno. Maybe I tend to put a name or a location forward first thing. To set the stage maybe. Other than that, I'm blank. Feel free to comment if I'm simply being blind to my own work.
