Miss Saigon11 has finally stepped away from Inuyasha! Yeah!
Honestly, after 10 fics of nothing but Inuyasha, I think that this is a good thing and that I should be rewarded for it. I shall wait patiently right here *sits* for it.
Anyways, I'm preparing a Mortal Instrument's fic but before I write it I've got to get into the mindset of the characters. Especially Jace. Jace is going to be a toughy. So I've decided to do a practice of sorts. I saw something like this on here before where you put your iPod (or mp3 player of choice) on shuffle and write little one-shots or drabbles inspired by each song. And you do that twelve times.
I think that twelve times should be enough so expect a minimum of twelve chapters. If I don't think I'm ready I'll add more.
Anyways, the first song was Sweet Caroline. Now, just so there isn't any confusion, it was the Glee Cast version, not the original.
Flames are welcome.

Sweet Caroline
His tawny eyes lingered on her pale face as her green eyes glanced over the menu. A small smile danced on the edges of his lips and he looked down into his glass of water. Alec was going on about something they had done together, but Jace wasn't really paying attention. He had seen that episode; didn't need a recap.
Besides, he had other things on his mind. Short red things, but oh so sweet things.
Pinpointing the exact moment his interest for the girl known as Clary Fray had gone from being about what she was to whom she is was nearly impossible. But it was somewhere in between the moment she got the inevitable phone call from her mother that started this whole journey (a phone call he was guiltily happy about in some ways) and when they were on their way back to the Institute from checking out that little place owned by Clary's mother's friend Luke. Or Lucian. Hell, both of them. That he was sure about.
Kaelie came over with their food and Jace felt that little leap of joy you always feel when you see your food arrive at a restaurant. He plucked a fry of his platter and nibbled on it, watching for Clary's reaction as she took a bite of her food. Her eyes seemed to light up and a feeling of warm satisfaction spread throughout Jace. "I told you it was the greatest restaurant in Manhattan," he said, finishing the fry.
And there you have it.
I started working on the second chapter after the first but the bell rang and I had to put up my journal. So I just gotta transfer what I wrote onto the computer, finish it, post it, then bada-bing bada-boom. Second chapter.
I'll give ya a little insight-the song was Kiss the Girl
Blessings!
