eliyesWhen you see this, post a little weensy excerpt from as many random works-in-progress as you can find lying around. Who knows? Maybe inspiration will burst forth and do something, um, inspiration-y.
sometimes I write French dialogue for otherwise English stories ^^;
"Eyy!" Jean-Paul called, as his group and hers were just done passing one another on opposite sides of the street. "Ey, 'tite fille, tu me resemble!" Mme. Pellerin grabbed his shoulder, which was all that kept Jean-Paul from launching himself across the road.
Namor versusQ an unnamed sorcerous being who is totally Q
"Congratulations, it's a girl," the sorceror's voice murmured in his ear, though he could see the accursed creature floating four meters away.
take two on the same story as above, now with 100% less Q!
Captain America made a soft "aha" sort of noise and began to smile warmly. The Scarlet Witch widened her eyes in astonished delight. Quicksilver and Hawkeye both grunted, then shot each other surprised looks over the similar reaction.
"Hello again, Namor," Cap greeted the Atlantean prince. "To what do we owe the pleasure?"
"Puberty," Namor said cryptically.
One of my attempts to write a tag to the NCIS episode "Guilty Pleasure". This is basically the only good part
"McGee!" This time the punch to his arm hurt.
"Ow! What was that for?!"
"That was for all my sisters in geekitude who ever wished a hot jock would ask them out! I can't believe you, McGee! Not only did you welsh on Tony, but you let down your friend who works at the museum, too!"
As soon as McGee stopped rubbing his arm, Abby punched him again in the same spot.
"Ow!"
"And that was for them, too! There are a lot of women to avenge here, Tim!"
"So you plan to keep hitting me?!"
some Tony emotional-whump and probably h/c I started and then lost the thread of
"Boss." Tony's voice was helpless.
"Go," Gibbs said, and just like that, Tony shot out of his desk, hand barely grabbing his knapsack in time. They could hear him running down the stairs before the door swung shut behind him.
Fixing something that always bugged me from the NCIS episode "Sub Rosa"
Tony eyed him sidelong. "Not your type."
"Well, how do you know that?"
"Because if she were your type, she'd have had enough impact that you'd remember seeing her during the video conference call that we did right here with Gibbs and Kate."
some OCs from the prologue to an NCIS case fic I am sure I will never finish, because I suck at case fic. But I keep trying!
Glenn released a nervous laugh.
"You guys should coordinate your threats better. Ray's cousin Sheila already said that."
"Mmmno," Mark said, eyebrows crinkled in thought. "I think you'll find, if you remember, she said your legs."
Julian Lodge snark was the best part of First Monday
"But just think -- if he could have found one person who was capable of thinking of more than one perspective, then he could have saved the taxpayers from having to pay all three of your salaries."
a little bit of poetry relevant to my Andorians 'verse X3
Roses are red, doctors wear blue,
Don't let the Andorian see your tattoo.
X-Corps: Paris fic. I've tried to write this three or four times; don't know which version I'll eventually finish, but I was proud of figuring out the airport and time zone stuff in this one
It had been a long, long flight. Direct from Auropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de México (aka Benito Juárez International Airport) to Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle (aka Roissy Airport -- and why the hell did airports all have multiple names?); usually the flight took a little over eleven hours, but they'd hit turbulence or some damn thing like that, and added nearly an hour to the trip.
of unsightly bumps under fuku and how, just because Artemis has a navel piercing, does not mean he approves of Minako wanting one
"I could always use my disguise pen to make it look like I had a navel piercing -- then when I transformed into Sailor Venus it wouldn't be there!"
Artemis hid his face under his paws.
Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends pre-series fic
Angelica slit her envelope lengthwise with a fingernail and pulled out the letter, fumbling it a little in her haste. Her eyes grew wider and wider as she scanned down the page. Suddenly, she flung her arms in the air with a happy scream.
Bobby whooped and pulled her into another hug. Laughing and shouting, they dancing a circle around the room, winding up chanting "we're in, we're in!" and jumping more or less together.
Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends/NCIS fusion
Gibbs hid his expression behind his mug while DiNozzo's eyes darted between their faces.
"You two related?"
"Half-siblings," Agent Dante confirmed, then added dryly to the frowning NDA lead, "Don't worry, we perfected pretending not to know each other when we were kids."
Her brother and DiNozzo snickered.
X-Factor bodyswap fic. Monet and Rictor are switched; Jamie is weirded out; Longshot is Not Helping
"Ex-cuse me!" The tense, loud interjection from the door was so quintessentially Rictor that Jamie was surprised to see Monet's body, radiating tension and gripping the door frame in a way that would probably need repairs later. "You all seem to have forgotten that I now have enhanced hearing and telepathy, which I am not used to controlling. So I will say this once: "
