writing patterns tag game

Thank you for the tag @chejuu!! This is so fun!!!

Rules: list the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

With the shrill shriek of a whistle, the first game of Grant’s senior year ended, the score a devastating 6-30. [Stupid Games and Stupid Prizes]

Growing up, Dick’s favorite place in the world was a cabin his parents liked to rent for family holidays. [snapshots]

Dick gritted his teeth against the noise. [road trip blues]

The silver and chrome diner gleamed in the strong evening light, looking like something out of a postcard. [pauses in the conversation]

Watching Bats hover around the new kid sent something ugly tearing through Jason’s stomach. [The Promised Tomorrow]

John and Mary meet under the big top. What happens next? If you’re looking for the ending you know, try A. [Happy Endings]

Riko is seven years old the first time he meets his older brother. [do not blame the body]

Slade closed the doors to his private chamber, finally alone. [Feeling Throne]

“Are you alright, Jay?” Dick’s voice, thin and trembling as it always was nowadays, was not enough to steal Jason’s attention from their narrow window, but when he laid one hand over the other boy’s, Jason started violently. [old ends and holy writ]

“B!” [flipped too many times]

Whew ok. I don't see much of a commonality lmfao but also I've stared at all of this way too long. It is funny, seeing as I really only consider myself a Dick fan/writer, the majority of these are not from Dick's POV (we'll also ignore the one aftg fic lol). I like writing about how much Dick changes people's lives as much as fics about him I guess?
