Stump Cam (if you can)

[misscam]

Nicked from kaltia
A-- go to my fics and pick out a line or two from one of my stories.
B-- I will respond with which story I think it's from.
C-- points and a drabble to anyone who stumps me!

Please, keep it something that's a at least a little distinctive. "Hello," she said is just cheating. If you wanna up the stakes, offering me something if I can do it. (Drabble, icon, poem, song...) You don't have to, though. Only for the very confident...

I'll bite.

It is a silent drive through the sunlight, even with all the noise of awakening Las Vegas.

"She shoved him hard, he overbalanced, falling backwards. The sand pretty much caught his fall, and he looked more confused than anything."
If you can do it, I...want your memory.

Fight

Knew it had to be a one-shot since it was present tense.

Dangerous Games of the Heart

Water Rats, baby.

"Light in the darkness. He could feel warm skin against his, warmer than he could have imagined. A flame – drawing him in always."

This is probably too easy.

"He stood high on a hill with the forest laid out before him, feeling the sun on his face and the wind clawing at his hair. Winter’s cold would not come for a while yet, but the warm embrace of summer had passed."

Raven's Song

Gimli's vision by Galadriel. I remember it from all the flame imagery I was fiddling about with.

Ah, that's gotta be Nocturne. Thranduil POV, which I was fighting with for a week. Buger to write.

Do you know how hard it is too pick just one line?!

He understands as she finally looks up at him, tears clinging to her lashes. He wants to wipe them away, kiss them away, kiss her grief away and be her whole world until tomorrow.

If you get it, I'll make you a non-animated icon.

He shook his head slowly, shaking the snow out of his hair and beard.

Now that one was the trickiest yet. Had to think a bit there.

But it's Innocence of Hope.

Until the End of Days

I don't write too many winters in my fics ;)

[bloodanna.livejournal.com]

Darn it. Yup, you got it. What would you like the icon to be of?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Surprise me...?

Something to do with my interest list would be cool.

[adoraheatherly.livejournal.com]

Damn, you're good. Beautiful story, by the way. Its always been one of my favorites.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks.

I just use logic and narrow the field down by what info the line offers. Then I skim very fast. Easy-peasy.

[bloodanna.livejournal.com]

Ooh, this was be hard, but I'll do my best. :)

Okay, I'm going to have to have a stab at this. I couldn't decide, so I have two for you. Guess both, and I shall write you something (at the very least a drabble) in the fandom of your choice. (high stakes, as you can see!)

1. Only then did she look at him. He looked tense, his full lips pressed together.. She felt an urge to go over to him and taste them, but she resisted it, feeling a slight panic rise.

2. She kissed him because she wanted him to feel better, because she didn’t know what else to, because.. because she wanted to.

It was tentative, careful kiss, and lasted only a few seconds before she pulled back. He looked rather confused, and kept staring at her.

You really went into the old stuff, didn't ya? But can't stump me, haha!

1 is Shooting Star. Knew it had to be J/C due to "full lips".

2 is definitely Faded Scars.

I want a Doctor Who drabbled.

I want a Doctor Who drabbled.

I knew you would, LOL. I've still got a couple to watch, but I reckon I can manage it. Next week, probably, after this ruddy marking is done and my assignment is handed in.

Yeah, my strategies were twofold: first go into really old stuff you may not remember (I first thought of Dangerous Games, but somebody else did that, to my surprise) and second to pick a multi-chapter rather than a one shot so it was less distinctive. I figured you'd get it eventually, but props for doing it so quickly!

I skimmed a couple of your J/C fics and had to gigle at the sneaky B5 references.

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

Have a go at stumping me, then? I'd post it in my journal, but I don't reckon anyone else'd bother.

I'm pretty sure I remember just about every word I ever wrote, since I agonised over them all so much. Interested to test that, though.

She only hopes the cold of humanity’s deeds will not be the death of her too.

As my writing skills are currently stagnated, I offer an icon. Those I'm okay with.

:)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Symbiosis.

Ha!

[sparrowinsky.livejournal.com]

You have skills at this game.

What sort of icon would you like?

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

I was on the wrong track there, I thought it might have been Crossing the Abyss.

You do use a lot of weather imagery, don't you?

(oh Hell, I'm supposed to be marking!)
