ambientlight: (we could have something here)

well, why not.

because this journal used to be a fandom-centric one, once. a handful of old memes, if anyone's interested. stolen from [livejournal.com profile] xsmoonshine.

1) DVD commentary meme: Point at a story, and I will babble about it.

2) Write me anything from a sentence to a drabble (or more if you desire), any fandom you want and think I know. Identify fandom and characters if it's not clear from what you wrote. I will respond in some fashion -- fic, art, bad poetry, a mini FST, etc.

3) Make up a title for a fic I've never written and I'll give you a blurb, excerpt, illustration or whatever else strikes my fancy.

2) that is not how this meme works! :\

but still:

The gods do not have to believe in eternity any more than mortals do in gravity. Loki has to learn the shape of its absence: Jormungandr sheds skin after skin, Fenrir's limbs lose their puppyish lack of definition. But there are diversions enough here, and Midgard's apples too are sweet, and there isn't that much, he thinks, that relies on the promise of ‘forever’.

Memory becomes a substitute even for regret. He could not lead her out of the underworld, all those Midgard-months ago. All that means is that he can look back, now; there is nothing left to lose.

I love these vignettes of an after(Ragnarok)life, the way you capture the flee(t)ing sense of time and memory and change through Loki's eyes.

thanks! i'm glad you liked it, though i'm also sorry that these fic scraps always wallow in angst.
