Give me the summary (maximum one sentence; semicolons are allowed) to a story I have not written (whether because somebody else wrote it or because nobody did), and I will give you the title, the first line, and the closing line I would have given it had I written it.
Dear Santa...
At least I don't think you've written this one...

Date: 2007-11-25 02:05 am (UTC)Being a relatively observant young woman, Veronica Mars had noticed that on the rare occasion that Dawn Summers was not actively looking for trouble, trouble could be reliably assumed to nonetheless be looking for Dawn Summers.

2. After the BDM--do you want to see your parents again?
3. If The Academy had been what it purported to be, what would you have studied?

3. If. My heart dances on an if, through books, through laws of men and science, through galaxies and quarks. So many dances silenced by an if. They cry out, demanding to be named River, but that name is denied to them. The name weeps.
4. For the eyes, Ophelia with the flowers. For the ears, A Little Princess on a brother's voice. For the heart--
*kiss*

"She's just a girl," Dinah reminded her, as if Barbara could possibly have forgotten.
[. . .]
Kara looked from the Barbara to Dinah and back again. "So . . . who's going to be the one to tell Kal?"

Date: 2007-11-25 07:26 pm (UTC)Charles Gunn of Wolfram & Hart against Matt Murdock of Murdock and Nelson in a legal face-off to the finish.
Although I was so tempted with this one:
Special Agent Jack Malone has two problems: a missing suspect, and the most annoying English librarian in the world.

Date: 2007-11-27 10:05 pm (UTC)Oh. I guess that is in one of my fandoms, after all. Sort of. In Ultimate, at least. Still no clue who Jack Malone is, though.
Time of Trial
"So, wait. Who's more evil--their guy or our guy?"
[. . .]
Gunn dropped the memorandum into the inbox on Harmony's desk and walked away, softly humming "By the Mystic Regulation."
