83 - "You coward! Are you bragging to the stars?" - A Midsummer Night's Dream

MY FATHER
by John Crichton
Grade 4My father's name is John Crichton, just like my name, but everyone he knows calls him Jack Chrichton, which is his nickname. He is my hero ( Read more... )

81 - "And so everyone, according to his cue." - 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'

OOC Note: Okay, with this prompt, I kick off a ridiculous little cracktastic idea I've been kicking around with model_numbersix. I'll occasionally be making prompt responses in this amusing little AU, but it should mostly be in comments. All posts/prompts taking place in this AU will ( Read more... )

79 - "I shall love her until the day I die. That's the tragedy." - 'The Scarlet Pimpernel'

Do I get bonus tragedy points because of the number of times I've kicked the bucket? 'Cause, you know, I really think I'd be in some pretty hefty prize territory, like a new car or a year's supply of chakan oil (which I could use, since Wynona goes through ( Read more... )

78 - "[Human] Nature... is what we are put in this world to rise above." - 'The African Queen'

When I first ran into the Ancients... well, okay, I really just ran into one particular Ancient, fine... they were looking for a new planet to call home. And instead of calling their realtor to find them a nice condo with a Southern exposure and a ( Read more... )

76 - "I never dreamed that any mere physical experience could be so stimulating!" - 'The African Queen'I'd seen people plug themselves into ships and control them with their brain stems. I'd had my personality hop from one body to another, trying to get back to my own. (Although that detour through Aeryn? Priceless.) I'd watched people get ( Read more... )

71 - "I'd like to have your advice on how to live comfortably without working hard." - 'Rebecca'

You gotta understand, okay, that the whole idea at the start of everything was running away. That's all the good ship Moya and her crew were trying to accomplish when I first got to this side of creation-- run the hell away from the Peacekeepers as ( Read more... )

70 - "The human animal is a beast that must die. If he's got money, he buys and buys and buys everything he can, in the crazy hope one of those things will be life-everlasting, which it can never be." - 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'Everybody wants to leave their mark on the universe, is what I think it boils down to. People who say they wanna live ( Read more... )

68 - "A family crisis brings out the best and the worst in every member of the family." - 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'

"Look, I don't see what's wrong with following my plan," John sighed.

66 - "It seems to me you're doing excellently without any assistance." - 'It Happened One Night'
I'll be the first to admit that me and D (that's my good buddy Ka D'Argo, for those of you who are just joining the insanity, already in progress) had a pretty damn unusual kind of friendship.

( He ain't heavy, he's a Luxan. )

64 - "I come from a long line of stubborn idiots!" -'It Happened One Night'That's not exactly true for me in a literal sense, I guess. Now don't get me wrong-- my Dad is as mule-headed stubborn as they come, and there's no doubt in the world that I don't take after him that way, but he wasn't a dummy, and neither am I. Yeah, you heard me. No ( Read more... )
