If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactly one sentence from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguing sentence so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else -- this is merely to whet the general appetite for your forthcoming work(s).

I'm stretching the "one sentence" bit just a little.



From "Life In Shadow" (BtVS, Spike/Tara)

“I’m a vampire, pet. I don’t do dishes. Don’t say thanks. Evil, remember? Grrr.”


From "The Immigrant Song" (BtVS, Joyce/Olaf, Spike/Buffy?)

Spike picked himself up and wiped the blood from his nose. "I take it that means a blow job's out of the question?"


From "Pandora's Boxer Book 2, 'Glory Days'" (BtVS, various pairings)

"The hire car's bound to be a Skoda, so it'll be a sodding heap of junk, but I suppose we can put up with ..." Spike stopped dead in his tracks and stared. "Jesus Christ on a bike. That's a Skoda? How long have I been away?"


From "I was made for loving you baby" (BtVS, BuffyBot)

Warren smiled. I wanted to punch him in the mouth and remove the smile but I could not move. No one controls me but me no one controls me but me no one controls me but me No longer true.


From "Murder on the Acropolis Express" (Agatha Christie/Xena Warrior Princess crossover)

Poirot dabbed delicately at his forehead with a handkerchief. "Your clothing is most immodest, Mademoiselle, but perhaps not inappropriate in this heat. Can I offer you a sirop de cassis?"

I take it you missed the original Joyce/Olaf story Merry Sport (http://www.speaker-to-customers.me.uk/buffyverse/ms1.htm) when I posted it the first time, then? The forthcoming "Immigrant Song" is a sequel.
