tell them stories

Book meme snagged from xandgunn.

1. Take five books off your bookshelf.
2. Book #1 -- first sentence
3. Book #2 -- last sentence on page fifty
4. Book #3 -- second sentence on page one hundred
5. Book #4 -- next to the last sentence on page one hundred fifty
6. Book #5 -- final sentence of the book
7. Make the five sentences into a paragraph:

“Honey?” Kit stuffed his hands into his pockets, hunching his shoulders a little.

“What?”

He reached out and took her hand in the darkness. “You are the magic of possibilities.”

...That actually made sense. I’d read it.

The books, in order:

Visser by K.A. Applegate
Wizards at War by Diane Duane
The Bermudez Triangle by Maureen Johnson
Melusine by Lynne Reid Banks
Shiva’s Fire by Suzanne Fisher Staples

"Empire Magazine has revealed its list of the 50 Greatest TV Shows ever. so LJ has a TV meme :)
1. Bold the shows you watch
2. Italic the shows you've seen at least one episode of.
3. Post your answers.":

Snagged from spooky_xfile.
The ones bolded and italicized are somewhere between seen at least one episode and watching.

( greatest shows ever? )

When you see this post, put a quote from NCIS in your journal.

Abby: Oh, this cab is bringing back memories. Cheap vinyl, plastic divider, dirty floor. Actually, these floors are pretty clean. The ones I remember were dirty.
McGee: Let me guess, short-lived career as a cabbie?
Abby: Short-lived encounter. Ships in the night.
McGee: Oooh.
Abby: My first time.
Ziva: For what?
McGee: Front seat or back?
Abby: Back. Well, both, kind of.
Ziva: Oh! My first time was in a weapons carrier.
McGee and Abby: Of course it was.

So, you know, I keep writing...

Comment with a topic of five things that never happened with a character and I will write it out. Or five things you want to know about a character. Or five things that perhaps happened to a character but we didn't see in canon. Frankly, we've got plenty of options.

This looks pretty fun, so...

Let me know what you'd like to be spammed with -- my five favourite foods, actors, flicks, songs, embarassing moments, love scenes in books -- pretty much everything you can come up with and would be interested in!
