amberfocus: (Nine Rose Cartoon)
[personal profile] amberfocus
Post a line from every work in progress you have going--or something like that.  And I didn't, because I have way more than this, but I felt nine was a sufficient number.

1.  "You’re not the one whose body has turned into a giant biology experiment, are you?” she snapped. (Ten2/Rose)
2.  It was dull and unexciting and if there was ever a whisper of it almost—almost—being alive within the hidden depths of its dark, hard, glittering eyes, than that was surely an illusion. (No specific Doctor assigned yet).
3.  The voice is familiar, her own, despite the fact that even one thousand elocution lessons in received pronunciation would never make Rose Tyler sound that way herself.  (Rose running into herself when she uses the dimension cannon).
4.  “First let’s work on the intermediate pokery part,” he said with an utterly straight face, “then we’ll move on to the advanced jiggery.”  (alt!Nine/Rose--excerpt from Chaste Moon)
5.  He had walked out of the barn talking to her a mile a minute as he usually did and it was only when he paused for an answer and she had said nothing that he’d looked over his shoulder and seen that she hadn’t followed him.  (Ten)
6.  Her bright red socks are her own protest against his less than stellar fashion choices.  (Ten2/Rose)
7.  “I’d quite got that, thanks,” the Doctor said sarcastically as he untangled himself from Rose Tyler and the heap the two of them had managed to fall into by dint of standing far too closely together when the TARDIS had lurched unexpectedly in mid-flight.  (Nine/Rose and Jack)
8.  A series of emotions flicker over his face as he adjusts his version of reality against the words she’s saying.  (Ten/Rose--Aftermath)
9.  He’d almost forgotten that there’d ever been anything wrong between them, but now that a solid door separated them and he had time to think, he knew that this day had been an act of desperation on his part, and not just a small attempt to make Rose happy.  (Ten/Rose--Heat Wave)

... what's #9 from? My inner angst-bunny loves that line! =D

It's from a fic called Aftermath. It's a post-GitF fic that I've been working of for 2 years off and on.

Ooh cool! Any chance of it being posted (even if only partially complete)? I am almost as addicted to post-GITF fics as I am to chocolate (lolol), your fics are always great, and that line is very promising! =D

All of those made me want to read more but I must say I was most intrigued by 8 and 9.

Well, that one (#9) I'm hoping to finish up in the next week or so.

I want to read these all! #s 2, 3, 8, and 9 are topping my list, though...and I'm also curious as to which doctor is in each of these...

Oh, hmm. I'll go and put what Doctor they are.

#4 made me howl with laughter (inappropriately since I'm supposed to be working, not reading LJ)

LOL! I totally want to see #4 in a fic, that's too good to leave languishing on your hard drive!

I'm very impressed and give you many, many points for #3, simply for the degree of difficulty in constructing that sentence. I like it so much I'd have to keep in on my mantel just to prove I COULD write that!

#5--fabulous simply because my brain screamed "Ten!" in the first fourteen words. Yes, I counted, and I admit that's strange...

And #9, I really want to know the rest of the story....

OH, it won't languish. #4 is a part of Chaste Moon, so it will definitely see the light of day. *laughs about #3* You have no idea how hard I worked on that sentence! But I finally got it to say exactly what I wanted it to say.

These are all brilliant. Is #7 another part in the Body Language series? Regardless you can't go wrong with any fic with S1 Jack in it.
