{look upon my works, ye mighty}

1) Comment and I'll pick one of your LJ interests and make you an icon.
2) You have no say in what I make.
3) Put this in your journal so I can do the same.

Feel free to ignore the last line, for those of you who are either too busy or too unartistic to make icons. *hugs the Utena icon that vs_malik made her last time*

Comment with a fandom or pairing you'd like me to write a drabble about. To give this a bit of a twist, also include a song lyric for inspiration.

For example:

Yami no Bakura/Yami no Malik, "I'm killing time on Valentine/waiting for the day to end/change your taste in men."

or

Animorphs, "I don't wanna say, "diiiie motherfucker!/But I wouldn't mind if you did/Sometimes even the nice girl's ego has to override the id?"

Again, repost only if you want to. ^_~

And a random list of some fandoms I'm into at the moment in alphabetical order: Animorphs, Archie Comics (Nostalgia kick, SHUT UP) Batman/DC, Bruno and Boots, Chrestomanci, Gravitation, Harry Potter, Naruto, Othello (the manga, seriously), Pokemon, Sailor Moon season R (please ask me for fic with Prince Diamond or Prince Sapphire or both, please), Yu-Gi-Oh, William Brown books.

Taken from ryuutchi, who is now on my flist!

Choose a letter of the alphabet and name a word that begins with that letter. (Once a letter is taken, future posters have to choose another letter.) Name a fandom and pairing/character. I will write you a drabble for that fandom based around the theme of that word.

Taken letters: A, F, I, S.

( What's your costume? Halloween meme! )

LJ Trick or Treat Meme!

Would you like to come trick-or-treating at my lj door?

Post a comment that either describes your costume, or links to what you'd like to look like for Halloween. In return, you either get a trick or a treat! Tricks can be scary graphics, links to sites plagued by pop-ups, etc and treats can be quick drabbles, icons, fic recs for a pairing you like etc.

So, care to take your chances with the trick-or-treat meme? If you do, post this on your journal to spread the fun!

( Meme, which explains the subject line )

Now for an explanation of pool.

First time I ever played pool was quite a few years ago, with my male cousin Nilupa who is quite a few years older than me, and at the time, affected black nailpolish and all-black clothing. Gothic, you might say. I can't remember if I was good at it or not, but I had lots of fun, so on Monday, when I saw the bowling alley had a pool section, I asked about prices and decided to go there with Kathy on Friday.

Friday was yesterday - we played for an hour and half, I beat her at both games, first 8-7, then 11-5. I swear, it was so amazing! I mean, we weren't playing by difficult rules or anything, we just took turns to hit the white ball into other balls and you could get the balls in the pockets in any order you like, but still, it was just utterly WOW.

I apparently ROCK at pool. Seriously. I'd line up the cue, take a shot, hit the ball I wanted, it would do some crazy rebound thing, hit another ball and the second ball would go into the pocket. Without me intending it to. I was pulling off by sheer luck the kind of shots that pros practice, all insane rebounds and multi-clicks!

The second game was especially funny, because I had started off the first one, so Kathy started the second. She kept either missing the white ball and hitting the air completely, or hitting the white ball at such a weird angle that it just rebounded off the edges of the table without actually even touching the triangle. Anyway, it took her ten tries until she managed to break up the triangle even a little (and believe me, it was only a little), so then it was my shot. I lined it up, hit it hard and WHAM! Two balls went into a pocket, one after the other. XD

I lovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelove pool! Kathy had fun too, even though she lost (she's cool like that), so we're going to do it again some time. Putting music on the jukebox was fun too, though kinda expensive at a dollar for three songs.

Anyway, moral of the story? Never play pool with Luck.

"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 ceresi, twice for nekocutecatchan, and once for 9tails.

( Check out some of my first lines! *hasn't posted them all* )

( Quick summary of last few days. )

Write something for me. It can be anything you want - page. paragraph, sentance, poem, limeric just so long as it is just for me.
