Wednesday: Writing Game!

[embolalia.livejournal.com]

Good morning, everyone! Feel free to go back to yesterday's post to snag some gorgeous pilots icons if you're looking for pretty - otherwise, a game!

First Lines
Today’s game is borrowed from plaid_slytherin over on bsg-epics:

Leave the first line from one of your fics in a post. Then someone else can leave the next sentence (or paragraph at most), and the next person can add to that. These don't need to have anything to do with the original story (and are funnier when they don't!). Keep these new fics going and have fun! Be serious or cracky—everything goes.

If something you write would warrant a warning at bsg_kink, please put that warning in the title of your post.

You can also do more than one—just put each beginning line in a separate post. Add a link to the original fic, if you want.

Silliness!

The sand under his head was hard and he was cold.

He heard the flutter of wings nearby. Rubbing the sleep from his eyes, he could see a pigeon roosting in a tree. "Blasted pigeon," he thought to himself.

[embolalia.livejournal.com]

"Why does this planet even have pigeons?" Kara asked as she stretched beside him.

Kara smirks as she tilts her head back and pours the ambrosia straight down her throat.

The ambrosia that doesn't make it into her mouth dribbles down the striaght line of her neck, mesmerizing him, making him miss when he reaches for the proffered bottle.

Kara doesn't miss his sudden lack of coordination and she arches an eyebrow, slowly licking her lips.

[kballgetlost.livejournal.com]

With her eyes she dares him to take a taste of her mixed with ambrosia.

[embolalia.livejournal.com]

It was just a joke.

At the time, it seemed like a great idea.

But now his shoes are full of something Lee thinks might be jello, and he's not sure where they go from here.

What every one forgets about Apollo's Arrow is that it was just one of thousands of arrows that the youthful love god had pulled from his quiver; and just like those other arrows it had one result.

(from Whom the Gods Would Destroy (http://palis-delon.livejournal.com/527.html))

Kara reached out to release the arrow from the statue and swore loudly as she pricked her finger.

For a second all the myths she had to learn in school come flooding back and she really hopes she won't end up as a tree or a cow or something.

Nothing seems to change until she turns and catches sight of Lee. Then suddenly her pulse is racing. More than usual.

It starts with an ice cube.

[n-e-star.livejournal.com]

It ends with a three legged dog.

[wicked-sassy.livejournal.com]

A three-legged dog eating an ice cube. Crunch crunch.

Kara steps slowly down the aisle, her heartbeat pounding in her ears, clutching Bill’s arm for all she’s worth.

Ishay stopped them outside the privacy curtain. "He woke up twenty minutes ago," she told them. "And asked for both of you."

[embolalia.livejournal.com]

Before Kara can turn and run away, Ishay pulls the curtain, and Kara's eyes go wide.

Lee found the Batcave at the age of ten.

It was under his Uncle Sam's barn, and it was the coolest thing he'd ever seen.

He loved to take a flashlight and a book and hide down there when his parents were screaming at each other. He got comfortable among the flitting bats.
