Holiday Ficlet Requests: A Meme

[lady_sarai]

Okay. So between NaNo and Yuletide and the fic exchange (of DOOM) and oh yeah, the end of the semester and all my crazy assignments (why is it all of my grad school assignments are due in the same 3 weeks? Undergrad at least spaced things out!), I am pretty busy these days. But I really like this meme!

SO I offer it to you as Christmas/Hanukkah/holiday ficlets! It may take me a while to write them, but I really will do it. (...Even if they wind up being New Years ficlets.)


1. Put your mp3 player on shuffle and take the first 25 songs it gives you.
2. Link to the lyrics.
3. Let your friends assign you a song and character(s) to write a drabble to.

Yes, I am pretty deeply entrenched in DC these days, but for those of you who are not fans, ask me for anything you'd like. (Yes, I'm looking at you, aradiachiba, alphabet26 and marenzi. ♥) Feel free to specify if you want something within any specific fic continuity, as well. (Also, I am cross-posting this to my RP journals here and here, if there is something RP-based you'd like.)

Also, feel free to ask for more than one. Like I said--they might take some time, but I promise I will write them! ♥
