WIP Meme, 2013 edition

[ptahrrific]

I will post the names of all the files in my WIP folder(s), regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Choose one [or more], and I will post a random line or two.

Same meme I did back in 2011. Again, this list isn't everything in my WIP folder (which also has art, mixes, meta, and other random stuff), just the fics.

So, yeah, the rate at which I write things is ridiculously varied. There are fics that come together quickly -- I have plenty of short ones that were finished in one sitting -- and, as seen in this meme, fics that have been sitting around untouched for two years...

Art and mixes are pretty much the same deal, by the way. I have WIP images and tentative tracklists that haven't been updated for more than a year, but most of the things I post don't sit around nearly that long.

(And the longer I go without working on something, the more my eyes get used to it being in the WIP folder and skim right over it. I had totally forgotten "hellsing sedoretu" was there until just this moment, eheh.)

A sitting can be many different lengths! But it's always less than a day.



If I Fall Along The Way -- a Madoka Magica fic where Homura flips out on Madoka for contracting yet again, and it's all very angsty and heartrending. About half-finished, I think.

Madoka stumbled backward, and the still-unsteady Homura fell forward after her, striking Madoka's face again for good measure. "You were safe!" she cried, grabbing Madoka's shoulders, fingers digging into the puffed white sleeves and pushing hard enough to shake Madoka's entire frame.



Tentacle Aftercare -- the one where "Stephen" goes into the tentacle monster district. The obvious happens. So Jon and Sweetness have to team up to rescue him. Mostly finished, if only I can figure out what kind of scene to end on.

The friendly voice of the GPS started giving Jon warnings once he was within a few blocks of the district limits. "Turn left at intersection. Caution: approaching cephalon territory. Advance one hundred feet. Are you sure you want to do this?"

Sweetness, who had insisted on being buckled in, rattled against the seatbelt as the car turned. We will sever its limbs where it stands and make it scream like the filthy squid it is.

"That's really racist," said Jon automatically. "Besides, I don't think squids can scream."



Prompt ficlets 5 -- the latest roundup of fake news ficlets I've already posted on Open Threads, so you've probably seen them already...

Normally Jon would have objected to being left out of a decision like this, but Greta's nose was still twitching and she was perfectly docile under his hands, and who was Jon to object to a thing like that? "You did, ah, get her a cage and some chew toys and stuff, right?" he asked, just to be on the safe side.

"I'm still working on all the little details," said Stephen airily. "Got the spinning wheel, though!" He got to his feet and ran a hand along the curve of the wheel. "I'm going to teach myself how to spin Angora wool, and make us matching sweaters."

OMG That is so awesome. I love protective!Jon and Sweetness - wonder what kind of being she is here - is awesome.

I wonder if it's rape or consensual sex. Knowing "Stephen", it might just be the latter.
