...I'm feeling creative?

[fickle]

Attempt to start on the 20 Themes challenge. Most likely the prologue to a multi-parter... I'd know for sure if PM's multiplying plot bunnies hadn't eaten my map to committement. *mock glares*

Time To Move On.

"You stand before us today, accused of-"

'Being better than you.'

"Voluntary manslaughter,"

'Woman slaughter too.'

"First degree murder, second degree murder,"

'Oh please. All of them were first degree.'

"Malicious prosecution,"

'It is even possible to prosecute people in another manner?'

"Racketeeering,"

'Such fun.'

"Attempted regicide,"

'Not many people can have that said about them.'

"Rioting,"

'Causing riots would be more accurate.'

"Resisting arrest,"

'They're really searching for offences now, aren't they? You'd think that the first few would be enough to get me the death sentence.'

Bored, he dug his nails into the wooden surface of the desk, scratching out his initials. The guards around him, most of whom were nursing split lips or had other such injuries, made no attempt to stop him. Hearing names reeled off, his attention was caught again. 'They're not going to list everyone whom I've killed, are they? We'll be here all night if they do...'

"Ishizu Ishtar,"

'Never had her pegged as the type to be a screamer.'

"Joseph Wheeler,"

'I don't kick puppies. I kill them.'

"Tea Gardner,"

'Preach in the garden of Eden.'

"Rex Raptor,"

'The age of the dinasaurs is over.'

"Mai Valentine,"

'All the money in the world can't buy you life.'  As the list continued, the boy grew bored again, simply tuning out until he heard the phrase he had been waiting for.

"How do you plead -"

'Here comes the fun part.'

"Guilty, or not guilty?"

For the first time since he had entered the courtroom, the boy raised his head to look at the jury, eyes filled with a cold amusement. Softly, he replied, "Guilty." The smirk on his lips widened, and his tone was hard as he said the words everyone else was thinking, "Guilty as hell."

You're DAMN skippy I'm guilty! And I'd do it all again too!
Nyahahahaha~! XD

Okay. I'm finished. That was a fun read. ::nods

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

XD, remember to tell me if you ever get caught. I'd love to show up and watch your trial. ^_^

*grins* Thank-ee. It's the prologue to a 7-part fanfiction, hopefully.

[lapseofself.livejournal.com]

Ah good. I will be sure to do that. ::nods::

That way you can explain to me what happened because I would be too busy making stupid faces at the jury. X3
Wow... you people and your mad-writting skills. ._.

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

Not only that, but I might even be inclined to help with your character certification. "Crystal is a bad-evil girl who plots in white-text and should be given the death sentence."

...uh, yes. I am sure that they will be impressed.

LOL! It's not that great, I haven't even had it betaed yet :P

[pikachumaniac.livejournal.com]

Don't blame my multiplying plot bunnies! It's not their fault! They're innocent!

Besides, they're kinda tasty with a side of coleslaw.... :3

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

...you eat them?! *wide, shocked eyes* Then again, I suppose that's one way to get rid of them. I usually just settle for doing as they say, at which point they get so happily that they explode.

And it is their fault. Were it not for them and cairnsy, I'd be working on Narcissus Reborn like a good little girl.

[pikachumaniac.livejournal.com]

Well, there's too many to be pets... haha, pets or food. Wasn't that in 'Roger and Me'? ^.^;;

Really? They explode? Mine just seem to multiply... but if I bribe them enough, they sometimes go and bother other people. :D *gets stoned by the victims*

X.x;;;;;

Well... new stories are... um... fun. really they are. *gets buried under hers* Gyahhhh?

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

I have never heard of 'Roger and Me', so have no clue :P

*narrows eyes* See? You're admitting that your bunnies are to blame after all. *helps throw stones*

*laughs and starts writing up an obituary notice for PM*

[pikachumaniac.livejournal.com]

*sniffles* So mean. *cries in her tomb*

Roger and Me... it's a... um... Michael Moore movie. His first one, I think? :P

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

*smirks* I am known as an evil GM and am the epitome of Deceptive Evil. Mean doesn't begin to cover it. *adds 'whiny crybaby' to list of character traits in the obituary*

Oooh, I loved the last two documentaries I saw by him. *will find some way to see 'Roger and Me' eventually*

[sorshawolf.livejournal.com]

Fickle? Can I add you to my LJ? *blinks with puppydog eyes*

Yes, this is the ever elusive Sorsha ;)

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

I haven't spoken to you in ages! And sure, go ahead. *will add you back*

[sorshawolf.livejournal.com]

*pounces*

Yah, best way to get ahold of me anymore is either through here or through Cleft.

[lapseofself.livejournal.com]

XD

.... This is probably my fault. ::nods::

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

lol, and here I was wondering how she got hold of this journal. ^_^

[sorshawolf.livejournal.com]

Random wanderings of LJ...I've been known to do that from time to time. ;)

I'm just evil like that... XD

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

*blinks* So you were looking at Crystal's friends list and found me? Fair enough. *nods* She found me through someone on her friends list as well...

[sorshawolf.livejournal.com]

I didn't know Cyrstal had one until Karril pointed it out.

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

LOL! Well, he had her lj on his friendslist then?

[sorshawolf.livejournal.com]

or she had him or somethng I dont' remember... lol..

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

*shakes head*

This is so bizarre. This journal was created so that I could hang out with people from one RP, and then I end up being found by people from another RP. ^_^

[lapseofself.livejournal.com]

I blame Kime! She had the link to her LJ on Gaia and she was friended with Karril thusly I friended Karril and Kime and then Sorsha pops in and we are now mutually friended!

Of course, I blame you for yours Fickle. X3

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

...What? I am so lost.

You showed up out of nowhere and friended me. Then led Sorsha to my journal!

*whimpers* Why am I being blamed when I am so evidently the victim here?!

[lapseofself.livejournal.com]

::prods::

YOU friended Bryz, thus exposing your LJ to myself...
::nods sagely::

The rest, yes... I take the blame for that. ^^;
<3

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

...but I didn't know she knew you. I didn't even know you had a livejournal! *weeps* I only friended her because I like her fiction...

Come to think of it, why do you know her anyway?

*narrows eyes* You will burn for that.

[lapseofself.livejournal.com]

Same reason as you. But it was similarities between Dragonball Z fiction. Yes, that was when we were quite young and inexperienced. I'd known her before she was the Y!Malik fangirl. I knew her before she even thought about writing yaoi. XD In fact, I think she once said I was to blame for her 'coming out' with writing it.... ^^;; ::cough::

But that's all fine and dandy. I still think you carry the blame for yours and for THAT you shall burn with me. ::nod:: :3

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

LOL! Fascinating. First piece of fanfiction I ever read was Xena: Warrior Princess when I was about 12 or so. I found it by sheer accident, since I didn't even know about fanfiction back then, was amazed by the quality of the writing and downloaded all 1000+ pages of it.

...then got a shock once I read about Xena kissing Gabrielle.^^;

I'd forgotten all about that until quite recently when someone asked me what was the first piece of slash I ever read, and I realized that I actually read femslash before slash, even if it was accidental.

Me burn with you? Hah. I'll be the one burning you.

Oops, one last note.

[kimetara.livejournal.com]

My first fanfiction was Gundam Wing, first slash was Quatre/Trowa. There was this one extremely well-written angsty fanfiction that got me hooked... I can't remember it now though. Oh well.

Re: Oops, one last note.

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

I didn't actually get into the fandom with that. I just stored it on my computer and forgot about it for ages until suddenly, my friend told me she was writing HP fanfiction and then introduced me to the wonderful world of fanfiction.

For ages I thought that Animorphs was my first fandom (as the one I first wrote for) and then my world just got turned upside down once I found that Xena/Gabrielle fic. *sighs*

[kimetara.livejournal.com]

Hey~ey, no fair blaming me when I'm not around to defend myself!

...and Karril convinced me to getting a LJ, so I naturally friended him and many other people from Cleft. Then one day on Gaia I was bored and put my LJ as my website, and Crystal found it...and I found yours, Fickle, through Sorsha's (I thought you didn't have a LJ!).

Anyway! Now that I am here, I may be blamed for expanding the LJ ring...but come now, let's not burn each other and instead roast that annoying spider that bit me and created purple spots on my left arm. *mutter* [translation: May the afterlife of spiders and ants consist of rotting in the mouth of a giant turtle, dissected into twelve teeny pieces and scattered amongst the ice crystals of the Artic, and burning into crisps on the spits of holy hell.]

...so, mind if I friend you, Fickle? =p

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

Oh gods, now you're here as well?!

*dies* This is ridiculous! I mean, yes, I didn't have a lj until recently. Lj is bad, and I am a djer at heart. Bu-ut, a friend of mine got an lj and to spite her, I got one as well but didn't tell her about it so that she can't read this. Only my dj. If you read my first entry, I explain the reasoning better.

Anyway. Go ahead and friend me. Since you've already found it, what harm can it do?

*sulks at the fact this journal is being taken seriously when it's meant to be a slap in the face*

*snicker*

[kimetara.livejournal.com]

It's okay, Fickle...and I've been here and you know it. You didn't really think you could join the LJ ring without me finding out at some point, did you...? *evil grin*

*eyes suspiciously*

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

In that case, I am so glad that I am addicted to filters :P Means you didn't see anything that I considered private.

*isn't paranoid at all after having one of her stalkers find her dj, oh no, not at all*

Re: *eyes suspiciously*

[kimetara.livejournal.com]

Aye, filters and groups are quite useful...though, I have no stalkers I know of, so thankfully I'm free of at least that paranoia. *nods to self*

Re: *eyes suspiciously*

[fickle-goddess.livejournal.com]

Matt found my dj by doing a reverse DNS lookup once. I am now very paranoid about security and usually only put fandom stuff on my journal or just describe my life without talking about my emotions unless I use a filter.

btw, added you to my friendslist.

[kimetara.livejournal.com]

Yeah, generally I'm quite free with happy/uplifting journal entries, and them my more rant/emotional entries are screened (friends or private)...except for a few where I really didn't care if anybody read them because I was in that "screw it all" mood. ^^;;

Why, thank you very much. *grin*
