Hi, LJ. I only haven't posted since... *checks* July. I spend more time on Tumblr these days (username's kirihana if anyone's interested), but even over there I'm kind of quiet. The WIP memes were just kind of irresistible.
Post a single sentence or more from each WIP you have, or from as many WIPs as you want. Provide no context/explanations.
1. Mike and Tina knew, from the moment both of their names were called, that if only one tribute could go home at the end of these games, it wouldn’t be either of them.
2. Frankenteen’s quieter than he used to be, but that’s easily blamed on the Drac attack two weeks ago, when Gold Star got dusted. It’s the latest in a long string of loss, even though the crew barely knew most of the other zone-runners as anything more than names and faces.
3. Curt should know by now, Logan thinks, that if he doesn’t want to get yelled at by Carlos in epic bitch-mode he ought to say something immediately and head the other boy off, but Curt is too busy looking shocked and offended.
4. “Okay, how come James gets to be a mage, Carlos is a magical bard, you’re a knight, and I’m just a healer? This is not fair.”
5. Spock raised an eyebrow. “I did not predict that Commander Une would be discharged from Starfleet for behavior unbecoming an officer of her station. Did you?”
Kirk’s smirk became a grin. “No, but those hags on Titania V said I’d be second-in-command, remember? And here I am, promoted not two weeks later.”
6. The neighbor scowled. “Jim and Spock aren’t home. What do you want them for, anyway?”
Pavel gulped. Not home? Already this didn’t bode well for him. “I am Pavel Andreivitch Chekov, sir. I was told they’d be expecting me…”
7. Jim wonders how long Kodos has been on the run, and when exactly the monsters outside (they’re not people anymore, and he’s not going to pretend otherwise) overtook his pretty mansion.
8. Jim Kirk is twenty-one, and he is about to do the stupidest thing he’s ever done in his entire life. That’s rather impressive in itself, since though Jim has been hunting supernatural creatures since he was big enough to fire a shotgun, he’s never been known for being all that careful at what he does.
9. He’d almost told Spock, when they were walking to the transporter room together ten minutes ago, that he had a bad feeling about this mission, but had decided against it.
10. “One of these days, Jim, you are going to get us all killed.”
Jim smirked. “And isn’t guessing which day that’s going to be half the fun?”
11. More specifically, he caught the captain staring at Spock’s ass for the eightieth time since they left New Vulcan and realized that he hadn’t had a date since before the Narada.
