What? Another writing meme?

I am absolutely not stalling.

Give me a character, and I will tell you about a happy moment in their lives.

The fandoms: Alice in Wonderland (Burton), The Avengers, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, anything Disney*, Fringe, Halo, Hook, Kingdom Hearts (1 or 2), anything Pixar, Primeval (Season 4 or 5), Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Push (in this I mean either Nick or Cassie), Speed, Stargate: Atlantis, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Super Mario Bros., Tangled, and more**

*OK, this is broad. There are actually a few movies that I haven't seen in so long, it would be an injustice to write for the characters.
**Really, if I'm ever mentioned it in passing, then I'm pretty much game. We all know I'm the fangirl with a thousand fandoms.

Meme time!

I'm stalling (again).  Snagged with love from [livejournal.com profile] grav_ity:

Pick a pairing (anything from my OTP list is ok) and I'll write a short scene where they share a kiss. I might decide to write a sweet romantic kiss, or a rough, demanding one, it might be a very innocent kiss, or something completely smutty - I'm letting the muse decide.

The "Them v. Me" meme: 2012 edition

I did this last year, so it's high time for me to do it again. Because I was so prolific last year, I'm only including the fics that I wrote from April 2011-2012.

My list:

1. A Thousand Words (Captain America)
2. Taming the Rider (Tangled)
3. Road to Recovery (Call of Duty: Modern Warfare)
4. Under the Surface (Halo)
5. Would-be Savior (Alice in Wonderland)
6. A Most Precious Treasure (Tangled)
7. The Scent of a Woman (Jurassic Park)
8. First Name Basis (Iron Man)
9. Contemplating Mortality (Halo)
10. A Matter of Opinion (Frasier)

The Readers' List (most favorited):

1. A Thousand Words (Captain America)
2. Taming the Rider (Tangled)
3. A Most Precious Treasure (Tangled)
4. First Name Basis (Iron Man)
5. Under the Surface (Halo)
6. Smoldering (Prince of Persia)
7. Defying the Odds (Halo)
8. A Not So Formal Correspondence (Tangled)
9. Submerged (Prince of Persia)
10. Between the Lines (Tangled)

What surprised you most about your reader's top ten favorited stories?

That "A Thousand Words" has worked its way to the top--it is the story that has the least number of hits. Other than that, nothing too surprising.

If you could take any story off the reader's top ten list, which one would it be?

"A Not So Formal Correspondence". Ugh, it was like a sugar fluff bomb. So not my normal writing style.

Is there a common theme within your personal top ten? Your readers'?

With mine? From my point of view, those are the stories that I feel like I "got" the characters.

With theirs? They are a bunch of 'ship lovin' folk. All of them (except for Defying the Odds) are decidedly het.

WIP meme

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] erinm_4600

1. Go to page 7 (or 77) of your current WIP.
2. Go to line 7
3. Copy down the next 7 lines – sentences or paragraphs – and post them as they're written

Technically, this isn't quite a WIP because it's finished. It's been beta'd though I haven't had time to read the notes, therefore, I still consider it a WIP. :D

Takes place in my Halo AU. Warning for some mild swearing.

0-=0-=0-=0-=0-0=

There were but a scant few who knew exactly how Cortana enjoyed her caffeinated beverage. Her heart started beating faster. Could it be that John was ready to see the truth about her? That she knew nothing about Halsey’s deception?

A smile passed over her lips. Maybe things were going to be alright, despite the devastation that had occurred. “John...” She twisted her chair and saw a familiar face. But it wasn’t the one she was expecting to see. “...son,” she awkwardly finished.

“Sorry I ain’t the Chief,” he said sincerely. “But when I heard that you’re back on Alpha Team and cleared of all charges, I thought ya could use this.” He held out the cup for her to take. “Took the damn fools long enough to figure things out.”

She reached out and took the mug, inhaling the roasted aroma.

Had it only been four days since she had a drink of coffee?

“I take it they didn’t accommodate your caffeine addiction,” Johnson said, leaning on the edge of her desk.

“No.” They had treated her like a war criminal. Locked away. Given MREs as food rations. But Ackerson had made sure he had a cup of freshly brewed coffee every time he came to interrogate her. The bastard.

Meme time, baby!

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] sangate   (because, you know, I already don't have enough with my AU and my Big Bang fic, right?)

The challenge: First scene meme - give me a fandom, two characters, and a first line and I'll write the opening scene of a fic.

The fandoms: Alice in Wonderland, Fringe, Halo, Prince of Persia, Stargate: Atlantis, Star Trek: TNG, Tangled, Toy Story

The category: Well, most of you know I usually stick to gen/mild UST (Alice in Wonderland is usually the only exception, though Halo is always game too...get it? Game, you know, cause it's a video game, er, um, never mind. LOL)...and I'm always up for some humor. LOL

On a side note, I am still loving this mood theme ♥ ♥

Oh memes, what would I do without you?  Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] oparu 

Ask me fandom-related questions. They can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general. Questions can be as wacky as you want. Ask me about tv shows, books, characters, kinks, fanfic in general, fandom issues/meta, anything about any of my stories specifically. Whatever you've always wanted to know.

ETA: Yup, another mood theme. Food.  Dude. Food! My Food Network lovin' heart is dancing for joy right now!

Nano? What Nano?

I have hit 10k on my AiW fic. Woot! Only three scenes to write out and then it's the fun (ha!) part of weaving in another 5k (more or less).

But, right now it's meme time! Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] oparu  and [livejournal.com profile] comm_phoenix   (Slightly modded by me because I'm a rebel):

What fictional Character do I remind you of? Drop a note and name the character, and the repost this meme on your journal so that others can tell you the same!

What better way to distract myself from my first round of edits than a meme?  Snagged with love from [livejournal.com profile] beth_soprano 

Post the first line of a story here, and I'll write the next five (or so).

ETA: Anyone want to explain what, exactly, fandom secrets are? Saw it over in a comm and was totally baffled...
