In response to supaslims ficklet challenge...oh you didn't know?...
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn your music player on and set it to random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabblet/ficlet related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterward! No matter how whacked out your drabble is. :)
4. Do ten of these, then post them. Include the title of the song that you used.
AN: I Have done this for a few fandom's and it's a totally blast. It's a great way to get your creative juices going and not worry about the nitpicky details. I've been pleasantly surprised by some of the things that I have written form this and it often leads to an idea for a longer fic. My suggestions would be to have fun and really let yourself go. Also, be open to writing about charters that are secondary or not your personal favorite. Just let the music dictate the mood/tone of the ficklet. Also skipping a song is not cheating in my opinion. I like a broad range of music and some songs just aren't gonna lend themselves to a story in your fandom.
Breath Today-Flyleaf
Andrea sat on the floor; feeling her life slipping through her fingers. This was so not how she envisioned dying, but there was nothing for it. Her thoughts were filled with the people she loved and lost, her sweet sister Amy, Jacqui, Sean...the list seemed endless. For a moment she closed her eyes and whispered a final prayer. "After everything I have been through, please don't let me die alone. Not like this, not changed into some mindless killing machine. Just send someone; anyone to open that door. Thank you Lord." She closed her eyes; not really knowing what she expected to happen; when she heard the door sliding open and herd voices. Even with the world burning to the ground; God answered her prayer. Amy would have said "I told you so."
