Drabble Meme

[brigdh]

My class is finished! Whew.

So, as I mentioned, I was teaching an 'Introduction to Archaeology' class this summer. Due to losing my syllabus and other work when my laptop was stolen, I have basically spent every minute for the last six weeks writing lectures, or, when not doing that, grading quizzes. Any free time left over was spent moving. I really loved the class, and had a great time teaching (and I think the students really enjoyed it too, yay!), but it is so good to be able to think about anything else.

Specifically, I want to write something. I know I am always terrible about actually accomplishing this meme, but nonetheless: it's drabble meme time! Make a request, get a drabble: just give me a fandom, characters, pairings, prompts, words, photos, whatever. And then I will write you a drabble. We hope.

ETA: Here's my fanfiction, for the fandoms and pairings I write. Though if you know of another fandom I'm familiar with, you can ask for new stuff too.

Wish I'd have been able to sit in these lectures...genuinely, I considered archaeology a career choice 20 years ago, but considering I hate being cold and wet and am not patient, secretarial work has turned out to be a much more wise choice :D

I'm into Torchwood and happy for any pairing (Jack/Ianto preferred) but I'd love it to be in India - my next but one instalment of my epic contains your descriptions of Delhi (will you give credit in the header of course)

I tried to aim it for people who won't go into archaeology as a career as much for the students who will (since a lot of our students do come from other majors), because I think it's a topic that can be interesting to almost anyone.

And, whoops, I actually haven't seen more than one episode of Torchwood, unfortunately. I should have listed my fandoms in the post, sorry!

But thank you for being inspired by my descriptions! I'm touched.

no worries... I take anything in India if you feel up to it :D

Swordpoint charcter, your choice, door to another world, your choice.

Fantastic! Man, nice work -- I know how hard all that is even without a stolen laptop or a lost syllabus. Good job!

If you want to drabble about Yami no Matsuei about some folk who are not Hisoka or Tsuzuki, I wold be pleased by it!

I fully intend to jump in here with my usual greedy write-this! response, because the chance to read new work from you is not to be missed. But before I do: is there anything (source, mood, whatever) that you particularly want to write? If so, I'd like to at least think about taking it into consideration before I either go back to one of my that never gets old standard kinds of requests or lurch off into the realm of bizarro-world crossovers (Hisoka learns to drive; Jeep helps).

I mean, I'm happy to do that. As you can see. But, just in case you thought it might be fun to try something else.

I'm really big on doors to other worlds. To daydream about, not to actually walk through: I like here-and-now rather well!

Wordal. Hee!

So, I'm kind of late, but I figure asking can't hurt. (Unless it can. I hope I'm not about to kick start the apocalypse.)

I'd love to see Hisoka interacting with a member (or members) of the the Shokan division in a gen type way. Book club with the Gushoshin? Archery with Terazuma? Wakaba? Konoe? I'm up for anything.

is it too late to request a drabble?

(I'm doing a fic-a-day-in-December meme myself - feel free to request one)
