to and fro

This is the coolest writing meme I've seen in ages. Borrowed from daegaer:

Give me one of my own stories, and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.

The good thing about it is that I'm not forced to come up with entirely new scenarios, just slip myself into an already-created universe and extrapolate in one direction. Sounds fun!

Everything's at mercurial_wit, though if you are really mad keen on a drabble I wrote in your LJ years ago...then by all means ask me for that :D

ETA: I'm going to work for a few hours, but all requests will be filled when I get home. That's a promise!

Mea culpa.

(But...BEFORE...*sulks*)

I have this impossible impression that you would prefer to write about cleverly vague sex with the devil instead! I can't imagine why!

Actually, no, I WOULD like to write more about the Eater traditions, but...fiddling them from the child's POV is going to require a lot more settling-into-the-mindset.

Fear not! It will be done.

Hee. That was the challenge.

That is more than I can say! I mean, UHHH, but you will still love me because I am watching the West Wing pilot right now.

You are so lucky that such a thing as unconditional love exists. Although West Wing goes a long way in the positive condition stakes.

*flees for work*

Oh, I have every intention of writing it . . . it will either be torturous or incredibly indulgent. On verra.

Oh my god yes, Red Gates yay. I love this story desperately. :D

It's entirely too late for me to be making sense. I second Ji, how about that? How could I have forgotten this one. Augh.

*points down* You don't want to request something of your own?
