I should really get a life beyond LJ and fandom...or not
Argh, I have just stumbled upon the evilest, vilest Czerny etude in the world. Maybe if I practiced it would be easier.

Anyway, I was chatting with [info]sazzlette earlier today on MSN about the amazing number of people doing her thunderstorm challenge, which reminded me of a challenge that sort of popped into my head during one of those dull days during the school year.

So. Presenting ever more spam: Basically, you pick a number from 1-50, I give you a random song title, and the only stipulations are:

(1) whichever song title you receive is the title of your fic

and

(2) it's got to be at least drabble-length.

Oh, I'll also provide the artist and other information when necessary, just for reference purposes.

Otherwise, go forth and write. :D

I'd love it if you could answer a few questions for me, if you haven't already done so. :)

I'm having a hard time deciding between nine and eleven (my two 'lucky' numbers), and I think you should choose for me because it's late and I'm incapable of making any decision besides "to breath or not to breath?" And I'm also having a hard time deciding how I should punctuate the end of that last sentence. . . .

My roommate wants to sleep, so I can't see the keyboard for lack of light. I'll answer those questions once I figure out where the switch is on my lamp. . . .

I suppose it would be cheating to ask for another song with more lyrics that I can actually make out. . . .

For inspiration's purposes, of course . . . and I think we're both expecting a Lucius/Narcissa out of this one. . . .

Did I end any sentence with a period?

[info]virginia_bell
2005-07-01 01:32 pm UTC (link)
It would be cheating. *wink* Since I have this slight hunch that it is going to be Lucius/Narcissa - don't know where I heard that one from! - "Terminal Frost" would be an excellent title, don't you think?

Hehe...terminal...periods...*giggles for no reason*

Oh, I've never told you that I love that dreams icon of yours, have I? Because I do love it. XD

Oh, this sounds interesting. And as much as I should not be doing any one-shot, I think I'll take up this challenge. I'll take number 13.

This should be fun. Geez, I can't believe I'm doing this. I have already so much to write! Good challenge though.

I just happen to love Marcus, and when I found this icon, I nearly fainted. I was all squeeing.
