And seen everywhere on my flist, the first lines meme. My fanfic is very much old news these days, but I'm doing it anyway, if only for the nostalgia:
Post the first line from your 25 most recent fanfics and try to find a pattern.
1. "The Master yelped, his face white with pain, sweat beading on his forehead."
2. "Zoe. You know I ain't one for words, so I'm gonna make this quick."
3. "There’s a moment, as she walks away, when he can’t help imagining, can’t help seeing - feeling - the possibilities he’s missed."
4. "Lying on the floor, breathing slowly."
5. "It’s got the sense of a beginning, this thing."
6. "He stood with his back to me, looking up."
7. "Jack stood on the dock in the pouring rain, and watched the comings and goings of people of every shape and description, the air filled with a hundred different tongues."
8. "My mind is cool and composed as I tie the knots."
9. "Please just… just wait! We have so much to learn."
10. "It’s a moment. Just one moment, nothing more."
11. "It was a nice enough planet, Turlough supposed."
12. "It was so far past three in the morning here in Atlantis that John could no longer remember what that particular point in the space-time continuum looked like."
13. "“Corporal Nobbs! Stop right there.”"
15. "It would only take four words to change the world."
16. "Jack Harkness knows how it feels to want something that will destroy you."
17. "Jack sighs as the Doctor slides cool arms around his waist."
18. "He knows this isn’t right, knew it from the very beginning."
19. "Funny, Rose muses, how she can tell Jack’s breathing from the Doctor’s without even thinking about it."
20. "It wasn’t often Jack ventured into the police station, but he had a problem with an alien they’d caught, and urgently needed info."
21. "When he next sees the Doctor - and he will, there can’t be any doubt about that - he’s going to choke him."
22. "Jack sucks a ragged breath in through his teeth, and lets it out in one short, sharp gasp."
23. "Oh god. He can’t do this. He can’t do it."
24. "Jack slides his hand up the Doctor’s back, gripping his shoulder, pulling him down, deep into him."
25. "She should, really, know better than wandering around when she should be asleep."
A lot of lines start with the word 'Jack'. I seem to focus straight in on my PoV character. Other than that... I'm not sure there's much of a pattern.
