Meme-age XD

"Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to write a drabble with the same first line as any of the following, and leave it in my comments here.

Answered for once for [livejournal.com profile] ceresi, twice for [livejournal.com profile] nekocutecatchan, and once for [livejournal.com profile] 9tails.



He sleeps dreamlessly, the sleep of the innocent – or of the amoral.

There are worse things than death.

They say she died for love.

Let's play pretend.

Bakura took his duties as a yami very seriously.

The crowd gathered in the square, dressed in their most ceremonial togas to mourn the death of their two greatest heroes.

You look like an exotic flower, all fragile and beautiful in a way that’s so different that it is exquisite.

“I’d say I love you, but that would be a lie.”

Once upon a time, the world ended.

They say evil knows evil.

He gaped at her in amazement.

I am their Savior.

She said she'd love me forever.

The real tragedy of immortality is that there is no happy ending.

It would be easier not to love him.

He wanted to paint of his love for her (the shrink said that it would help) but first, he needed to know the color of obsession.

She’s never been perfect.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who dreamt of being a famous dancer… but dreams die, and she’s left with nothing more than a handful of faded sequins.

The secret is, he’s not supposed to like it.

It wasn’t that it hurt so much – it was that it felt like the world had shattered around him.

Insanity is contagious, but it’s an invisible disease, transmitted through greedy kisses, and the technical name for it is ‘Love’.

The first blind God is Cupid; the other is Justice.

Angels fear Falling, but mortals fear the moment of impact.

When you risk everything on a toss of the dice, being soulless helps.

“What’s the square root of infinity?”

It would be easier to hate Ryuuji but Seto's always made things hard for himself.

And if you're interested in seeing my replies/drabbles, then click here to read the Yami no Malik/Seto, Seto/Ryuuji drabble for Ninetails, here for the Yami no Malik/Seto drabble for Nek0-chan (where I just realized that the first line is in the wrong tense for the drabble which is why I shouldn't try doing this late night), here for the Ryuuji/Seto drabble again for Nek0-chan, and finally, here for the drabble that I wrote for Ceresi.

Rewrite...X__X Picky me...

Fall

I am their Savior. Granted, a cold bastard who wouldn't think twice if one of them fell off the face of the earth, but you can't be picky when it comes to saviors. Not that I'm willingly doing this, mind you, but debts must be paid, and I have my fair share.

I take that idyllic world of their's, that ever-happy magical fairytale where they play the 'hero' and 'save the world,' and re-write the pages, if you will. Scripting the evils in their world, show them that the 'good guy' doesn't always win. I do this, so that when they finally find out the truth about the world-- that nine times out of ten the good guy ends up discarded in the gutter, bleeding to death-- they won't be utterly devestated.

So when they do finally fall from grace, instead of thousands of splinters plummeting onto the earth, maybe because my intentions will create a safeguard to catch them as they fall-- Like Hell I'd want to sit and clean up the pieces.

/And what if they never fall?/


~Fin~

I look at it now and...X___X I don't know... It's kinda...yeah...


Might do another later...Awesome sentences though...X__X *tempted*

X__X As you can see, Fate hates me for writing this...

Correction (again)

'Maybe my' = no because...

^_^

I love that.

Like Hell I'd want to sit and clean up the pieces.

That just struck me as very perfectly disdainful sentence for him to speak. And the final thought (?) was awesome as well. Just really showed up the contrast between his 'good' intentions and the likelihood of the good guys being allowed to fall. Just so lovely and ironic. XD

*applauds* And whee for the possibility of more cool drabbles. ^_^

Beh.

The secret is, he’s not supposed to like it. It’s a traversty forced upon him, an emotion, an experience, which has only ever inflicted as opposed to assisted. The deliberate roll of overly green eyes, snarky comments delivered from a silvered tongue – they easily lie for him, informing Honda, Jounouchi, Yugi et al that he doesn’t like this situation at all, and is merely tolerating it for reasons known only to him.

Because it’s not a secret that he doesn’t like all this.

Just one that he’s not supposed to.

Strange, how Friendship is slowly starting to grow on Ryuuji.

*pounce*

I love that. *adores the pretty drabble*

You do realize that if I actually atttempt that insane 20 themes challenge, it'll be all your fault, right?

Right?!

*accusing glare*

Yay!

I mean, how terrible. I am a horrible, horrible person, and shall now go flog myself.

*narrows eyes*

Yes. And as extra punishment for your dreadful behavior, I shall make at least one of the drabbles Seto/Ryuuji!

Cower in fear before the idea of two beautiful bishounen sniping at each other.
