Give me one of my own stories, and a timestamp sometime in the future after the end of the story, or sometime in the past before the story started, and I'll write you at least a hundred words of what happened then, whether it's five minutes before the story started or ten years in the future.
Or, alternately:
For anyone not familiar with my writing, please give me a prompt. I'm not promising a great drabble, but you'll get a hundred words of something.

I know an eighteenth
Jan. 23rd, 2007 02:55 pmI know an eighteenth that I never tell
To maiden or wife of man,
A secret I hide from all
Except the love who lies in my arms,
Or else my own sister.
I'm pretty sure that one's author should rank at least as high as sisters and loves-in-arms, but apparently not. Fickle, fickle gods.
What do you think the eighteenth charm is?
ETA: Hah! Hahahahahah! I got it!
New question--does anyone know if "the love" is gendered in Old Norse? I may end up with Odin/Anubis after all.
*runs off, cackling maniacally*

Words today: 734
Words total: 52,440
Reason for stopping: end of scene, and tired
Mean things: gunshot, near drowning, not-a-jellyfish sting
"Bone Garden"

Gentian still isn't really talking to me, but at least he's narrating what's going on. We can add the personality later.
I think the malaise is starting to clear--I've had more ideas today than in the last three months. These include a "Wrack" sequel I promisedultharkitty, which will hopefully be more than a drabble, a potential Lilim story called "Moving Restless", which is not actually fanfic for sovay, but wishes it was, and a huge chunk of backstory for Mist & Chill (now subtitled "Hel Has Two Mommies").
Mist & Chill has been scaring me for a while now, because it's Full of Awesome, but could easily turn out like something a bunch of Marvel writers barfed up after a three-day tequila bender. But after Loki started talking today, it is full of so much Awesome that I can't not write it. All it needs now is to give me a sexy opening.
