first lines

(saw this meme and went “yeah gotta do this!”)

List the first lines of your last 20 stories (or however many you have altogether). See if there’s any patterns.

CoK: Prologue 1 (July 2016) *i’m not doing each Prologue separately since they’re all written to go together*

The sounds of fists beating into all sorts of metal accompanied by the occasional laser blast and a guttural yell echoed quite well down the hallway. Scarlet was coming out of the barracks, scrolling on a tablet as he walked, when he heard it. As he looked up from the device, he couldn’t help but raise a brow at the display in the hallway; several Academy recruits and a few S.H.I.E.L.D. personnel were grouped outside of the door to the training room, apparently watching in awe. This intrigued the red spider enough to warrant investigating, so he went up to join the group.

CoK: Holiday Special (Dec 2016)

The holiday season was on in full swing at the Parker house. May had always been fond of the season; all that good will was like catnip to her. And having the house full of teenagers again (not that it wasn't these days it seemed) just made it all the better.

CoK: The New Normal (Apr 2017)

Nothing felt right. No, that wasn’t entirely true. Nothing felt like anything. No right, no wrong, there was just no feeling whatsoever.

Power Pals: Children of Tomorrow -prologue- (Sept 2015)

The city of New Chincinnati, named such after the city was destroyed nearly a decade before in a great super battle, and rebuilt from the ground up. Since then, the city itself had become well known for attracting what one would call “super villains”, leading to S.T.A.G.E. Labs setting up their base complex of operations just outside the city’s limits; debates often ensued over whether their presence was protecting the city from attacks, or actually encouraging them more. NC-ers were well known for their ever lasting memories; never forget, never forgive, especially when it came to the “Supers”.

The Bully and the Geek (Apr 2010) Ao3 link

It'd been a few years since he'd been back in this city, let alone the state of country. And yet, the moment he set foot on the asphalt he knew this was home. When he was younger this was the only place his family had stayed for more than three months; it was where all of his best childhood memories were made.

FOP: Why Sonic Left the STT (Jan 2011)

The florescent light thrummed loudly over head, mocking him with their rhythmatic crackling. Four walls, no windows, one door. It was a box, a cage if you would. He hated being locked up, like he couldn't breathe. But that feeling just pushed him harder, made him hit harder, strike harder, move faster.

MH: The Confession (Feb 2014)

He really couldn’t believe he was even considering this. He sat on his bed, in his dorm room, just staring at the small corked bottle in his hands. The plan his “fairy godmother” had suggested was that he, go to Cupid’s secret dance, and basically drug her, using the Love in Idleness just like his father had…in his story.

MH: Different Things (July 2014)

The night sky was clear tonight, so clear it was almost too hard to tell apart the stars from the fire flies (hint: stars aren’t yellow or blinking). The air was thick with humidity; that was something he would not miss in the least bit.

Sabertooth Mpreg Fic (Aug 2009) Ao3 link

This couldn't be happening. It was impossible. There was no way this could've happened again. Not unless...He growled as the memories stung sharp and fresh in his mind, as if it was merely days, and not decades ago that the "incident"...even calling it that made it sound dirty, which it was! Just thinking about what they made him do, with that "thing"...it just set his blood boiling.

Creed Family Drabble (July 2014)

She stood at the top of the stairs, on her very tippiest of toes so she could peek down over the railing. He was down stairs, stretched out on the worn leather couch, the TV on with some infomercial on as background; he was probably asleep.

XM: DoFP: Don’t Stop Running (Jun 2014) Ao3 link

My first memories aren’t all that special. I grew up in what may have been the last piece of modern suburbia for all I know. The war outside my doorstep didn’t seem like a big deal; my parents never brought it up around me, there wasn’t any need.

RvB: Secret Agent Man (Apr 2014)

Uhg, you know, I’m getting really tired of waking up on Doc’s table. Like seriously, the least the guy could do is, you know, put down a sheet and a pillow, or something. I’m not talking about Ritz turn down service or anything special like that-although those little mints would be nice, or ooo, chocolates. Yeah, chocolates would be nice.

RvB: Store Run (May 2014)

“Wash wake up.”

He tried to cling to the darkness of sleep. He tried to ignore the pestering voice, the touch on his shoulder that was shaking him.

“Waaaaaash!!!”

Hadn’t he fallen asleep alone? So there shouldn’t have been anyone in bed with him, no one to pester him, no one to disturb him. It had to be a dream, all in his head. Maybe if he just ignored it, it would go away and he could just go back to sleeping peacefully…

DnD Stuffs: The Tale of Lokianna (Mar 2014)

There was screaming; terrible, terrible sounds and just fire all around. They ran as fast as their little feet would let them, trying to navigate through the throngs of people and…other things. They had been separated from their parents when an explosion had rocked the courtyard where they had been standing; the rift the explosion had caused tore the visiting royal family apart as chaos reigned down upon them all. Now it was all they could do to avoid being trampled by the fleeing people, and the advancing demonic hoards.

My Padclock Fic (Feb 2014)

June 19th had always been the worst day of the year for her. Her dog had been hit by a car when she was 6 on June 19th. Her parents had told her they were getting divorced when she 12 on June 19th. She got her rejection letter from art school when she was 18 on June 19th. And she’s caught her fiancé cheating with her best friend when she was 24 on June 19th. She’d been dumped, fired, or had some sort of wardrobe accident more times than she could count, and it always seemed to happen on June 19th.

TFP: Wrecking Ball (Jan 2014) Ao3 link

There was fire. Fire as far as an optic could see. Whatever the structure had been at one point couldn’t be distinguished from the raging blaze that consumed it now. The roar of the flames droned out any orders the C.O. was dishing out, but it didn’t matter, they could most likely figure it out on their own.

TFCC: Seeker Sweater Card (Dec 2013) Ao3 link

The holiday season had fully fallen upon the offices of Kaon Enterprises. In years past festivities had been few and far between because of most of the management’s opposition to it. But this year was different.

TFCC: Heartattack (Oct 2013) Ao3 link

“I’ve seen the way you look at her.” “What the hell are you talking about?”

Diner Wager (Sept 2014)

The 24 Hour Diner neon sign outside blinked, beckoning those weary travelers off the dusty trek outside in for a moment’s respite. The place smelled of grease and stale coffee, even more so at this late of an hour.

Black Butler in America (Feb 2011)

The old wooden floor creaked as two sets of bare little feet tried to sneak across them without their parents hearing them from down within the parlor. White cotton gowns swirled around their ankles as they stopped; was that an abnormal creak? Had they heard them? The older girl pushed her younger sister forward a bit; the younger nearly loosing grip on the candle she was holding. They continued forward, still as careful with their steps, right up until they reached the bathroom. The two scooted into it and closed the door slowly, carefully.
