AN:*Looks around guiltily* So I took a little break from beta-ing Whispers in the Wind to do a, what I call, "fanfiction shuffle". Basically I put my iPod on shuffle and have until the end of each song to write a ficlet based on/inspired by the song. At first I did it for Yu-Gi-Oh! and whichever of those characters I felt like writing, but then I decided to include characters from BtVs and Harry Potter. (I plan on uploading the Buffy ones later) This was the first one I did. Shortly after this, I made up a list of characters and randomly selected one as each song started (thus some possibly weird songs for certain characters later on... you'll see what I mean). I may later go back and try to link to where you can hear each song on youtube.
Disclaimer: I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh!, any of the characters, nor the song mentioned here. All of those belong to their respective creators/authors/artists.
America - Simon & Garfunkel
Anzu was living her dream. For years, she had hoped and prayed and planned and strived for this very goal- she was finally studying dance at one of the most prestigious schools in New York. So why did she feel so empty?
This ficlet was inspired largely by one line from this song I'm empty and aching and I don't know why...
