ten first lines
Rules: Share the first line of ten of your most recent fanfics and then tag ten people. Don't have ten? Not to worry, just share what you have.
tagged by the lovely @the--highlanders (whose fics I am reminded I suuuuper need to catch up on)
1. Paths, Present & Future
Jamie stared up at the mountain before him.
2. Small Hours in a Wide Universe
The Doctor groped around above his head until his fingers met the lip of the control panel, and pulling on it, he levered himself up to his feet.
3. Your Life Begins By Leaving (and our love is shown in the letting go)
Jamie had left him by the sea, when he went to speak to Victoria.
4. Recruitment
There were very few times when the Doctor forgot why he’d run away from Gallifrey in the first place, and this was definitely not one of them.
5. Wedding Colors
The room was white.
6. I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)
The Doctor knelt on the ground in front of the door, fighting with the length of wire he was trying to use to pick the lock.
7. Under Alien Stars
Jamie sat on the flat stone ledge and shivered, pressing his knees together and pulling the heavy blanket tighter around his shoulders.
8. Visitation Rights
“I was told,” Zoe persisted, ducking under the rope that divided the queues and continuing to address the man at the desk through his neighbor’s window now, “that this hospital was a model of efficiency and organization – ‘A shining beacon for the modern era on Selarsus.’”
9. Itemized
. . . Item: 15.6 carvos of ter-lan cable; Item: 12 standard ob. cases of Bernalium . . . The Doctor stood on a flat outcrop of rock a little way down the slope from where the Tardis had landed, nodding along with the foreman beside him but only half-listening as he pointed out different areas of the work site below them.
10. So Merrily We’ll Sing
“Jamie?” The Doctor had only pressed his fingers lightly against the door to their room, but the Tardis allowed it to swing inward at his touch.
Hmm, maybe I don’t think about opening lines as much as I ought to, but the one from Recruitment at least is a pretty good one, even all on its own! (and look at me catfishing everyone with some pretty short opening lines for a couple of these lol)
tagging @seismologically-silly @terryfphanatics and whoever else writes things? I’m blanking a bit ngl, but don’t let my distractedness be an obstacle for you
#im calling everything an#ask game#from now on i think#this is probably a#tag game#though technically#(& i feel the need to clarify this every time i talk about it by name - but yes i know that's not what visitation rights actually means)#(it just became what my brain called that fic the whole time it was a wip & i couldnt process referring to it as anything else)

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!
do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!
#i am so sick of writers having to anticipate the most boring#bad-faith readings of their work. i am like - if you use cheese as a currency#okay! as long as the world makes sense to me: cool. cheese tax. moving on.#my job as the reader is to suspend my disbelief and say okay! i am so sick of like#fanfiction authors having to write dissertations#because they had an interesting idea they'd like to try out!!!#just write it! if it doesn't make sense that's someone else's problem!!!#PS OP is autistic. yes sometimes i take things literally at first glance. then i think about it lol#this is so clearly not about accessibility etc. it's about like. girl even i an autistic person#am able to understand ''they probably didn't mean his eyes darkened LITERALLY''

as a child there's nothing cooler than a kid who gets subjected to evil experiments and gains special abilities. it's even cooler if these abilities also cause unfathomable suffering to use/against others. children love stories like this.
#I'm talking about max ride flatmate is watching spy x family#reminiscing on my multiple stories and ocs about this like truly#I think this might not be as universal as i think but if you liked max ride it probably was. my main oc as a tiny child was#a girl who grew up to be an unethical scientist who loved experimenting on humans and children. she could turn into a flying purple wolf bt#maximum ride

Thinking about him (the soldier in Poynter’s Faithful Until Death painting watching an apocalypse unfold around him with horror in his eyes as he tries to keep himself standing beneath a doorway, based on an actual 19th century archeological find of a man in full soldier’s garb under a doorway at Pompeii)
#edward poynter#art#faithful until death#Pompeii#Do I think this man was actually ~standing guard until death~? unlikely. he probably just succumbed to the smoke early#do i think this is a devastating representation of the actual last moments of thousands of people? absolutely#it’s such a good painting

Yall ever think about how Ford had to relearn how to be a normal human being after 30 years of isolation
#notes:#Stan was trying to haggle with what is effectively a 7eleven employee... Because they didn't have the money for it#and also because Stan and his money anxiety... ☹️Ford probably has had to fight for scant resources and kiII for less...#Both of them need to get mental help and realise that it's okay#and that it's safe now.#You have money... And you no longer need to fight for everything you have#gravity falls#ford pines#grunkle ford#stan pines#grunkle stan#stanford pines#stanley pines
