The iPod Shuffle Challenge
Here is what to do:
1) Choose a specific pairing/fandom/etc as your topic.
2) Put your iPod/Media Player/CD on shuffle.
3) As each song starts, write the title of the song and the singer/band,
and then begin writing about your subject. You only have the length of
the song to finish, though. Once the song ends, so do you. No exceptions.
4) Most importantly, HAVE FUN!
Author's Note: I wrote these after an exceptionally long day (so I was
darn exhausted), and I didn't bother correcting them, so they are
bound to be cheesy and full of mistakes. Don't worry, the cheesiness is
intentional. I needed lame fluff to lighten my mood. The mistakes,
though...not so much planned but rather inconveniently unavoidable.
But whatever. It was fun to write, and I hope that you laugh when you read this! :D
World That Breaks- Britt Nicole
Without her, his life was broken. He couldn't breathe, he couldn't sing, he couldn't dream without thoughts of her.
She was his world, the song within his heart that yearned to be sung. And yet, he kept such feelings to himself, for fear of rejection.
Looking For Angels- Skillet
She was magnificent. She was an angel, her head wreathed by a halo of heavenly fire, streaming behind her as she rode upon the
battlefield, the silver of her blade sparkling as a thousand stars. Gunther's pulse quickened, with both fear and awe and adoration,
whenever he saw her through the chaos of the battle, a blur of colour, light and speed. And then she would vanish within the cries
of war, and his eyes would begin looking for his angel once more.
Face of the Earth- Toby Mac
There was no one else like her on the face of the earth. Rake would gaze in amazement every time that she would kiss him lightly
on the cheek, and a blush would creep across his cheeks whenever their hands brushed. He knew that he loved her, and wondered
if she loved him as much as he loved her, for Pepper was the apple of his eyes, the most beautiful rose within his garden, and his
innocent love for her grew quicker and stronger than his beloved plants.
Made to Love- Toby Mac
Jane couldn't help it. There were times during their practice, as they exchanged blows, that she couldn't help but noticed the fierce
light within his grey eyes, or the sheen of his black hair, the movements of his body or the blush that burned her face when their blows
caused them to bump into one another. Though she denied it, she could not help but wonder if she was meant to love Gunther Breech.
Those Nights- Skillet
The nights when she was younger often came to Jane's mind, memories of when she would sit and talk and laugh with the boy in the blue
hat. Friendship with him had been easy- simple as breathing, and she missed the days that she could cry on his shoulder and come to him
for advice. She wished that she could tell him how much she missed him, and quietly cried at night wishing that she could have let him know
that she loved him before it was too late.
Ready- Britt Nicole
He told himself that he was ready, as he stood with his back to the castle. Memories burned in his mind's eye of the red-haired girl he had
loved. He was ready to admit that he couldn't have her, but also couldn't live without her. He told himself that he was ready to put this
chapter of his life behind him, ready for the pain of never seeing her again. Steeling himself, Gunther Breech told himself that he was ready
to forget Jane. He was ready to tell himself a lie.
Never Alone- Barlowgirl
The code of the knights stated that a knight would never be alone. They would always have their comrades at their back. Gunther clung to
this secretly, hoping that he would never have to be alone as he had been as a child, and hoping that he would never be forced to be away
from Jane.
Believe- Britt Nicole
There were times that Jester believed that she returned his love, when her green eyes met his blue ones with a look that he could not place.
He wanted to believe that Jane loved him. He truly wanted to believe that he was not simply imagining.
I'm For You- Toby Mac
He was always there for her, a thread of sanity in her confusion. It was always him that she came to for support, and it made Jester glow with
pride. He promised himself that he would always be whatever she needed him to be, whether it was friend, lover, or a practice bag.
Comatose- Skillet
He couldn't live with her, he couldn't live without her. He needed her almost as much as she did not need him. He could not sleep without being
haunted by her face, and could not be awake without finding himself looking for her. He needed her as much as he needed to breathe, and yet
she suffocated him. She had struck him with a weapon more deadly than either of their knight masters could have imagined, and Gunther's heart
lay in comatose, bleeding and broken.
