Not that anybody should believe me even a little...

Shamelessly adapted from sardonicynic's recent post:

Pick a character or pairing from 24 (sorry to be so specific, but it's where my brain is right now), give me some a song lyric, and I will attempt at least 100 words of fic for you.

I know. I didn't write any of them last time. So I understand if you're all just like, PFT. However, my brain is in this mood where it just can't settle down, and I'd really like to find out if I'm capable of writing anything that doesn't turn into a thousand words minimum. I'm teaching all week, so I can mess with these at work, too:)

I think I'll cap it at 12 though, because even that's probably ambitious, given my recent success with prompts.

Crystal, I'm so excited to prompt you I'm squeaking;)

Holy fuckcakes, this is beyond amazing. It’s so beautifully written and it made me cry and I can’t even put into words how I felt while reading it.

I love the fact that even though Renee is in heaven, which is supposed to be this place of happiness and perfection and eternal bliss, she’d rather be back in real life with stained bathrooms and torn skin and blood if it meant she’d be with Jack. GAH. That made my heart explode.

the bitter veneer that shrink-wraps her words You seriously always write the most awesome phrases EVER.

Everything you said about time - there are clocks everywhere, but she doesn’t like to look at them and Time stretches, whatever time is, here.- is just so cool.

Larry! Your characterization of him is so epic, and fuck, the interaction between them is so perfect I can’t even. Larry wanting to be there for Renee and being sure she’s okay and the fact that he’s glad she’s there, but knowing how much she misses Jack. And I loved his face “changing expressions like a kaleidoscope.”

She smiles, muscles without meaning I can see that facial expression SO perfectly.

God, I just…don’t even know what to say. I just love this so much and you did such an amazing job of creating this setting and writing Larry and Renee and, as always, I am blown away by how talented you are.

Augh! I'm so sorry I made you cry. I actually kind of depressed myself writing this, because it made me think so much about Larry and how in the end, he just loved Renee and wanted her to be safe and balanced and not you know, chopping off people's thumbs!

But of course my shippy self can't write her as anything except wanting to be with Jack, so there you go. I'm glad you . . . well I won't say enjoyed it, because that's not right, but that it gave you emotional emotions, as we used to say in the SVU fandom.

I have this thought for your prompt that just won't work itself out in my brain, but I'll get there. *huge hugs for you*
