Last Line Meme

Tagged by @galadrieljones  – thanks lethallin!

From the next little Fenris x Rynne Hawke drabble; subject to possible edits:

Hawke frowned. “What in the bloody Void did Anders say to you? Something tells me he needs a good roughing-up. I could get some of Athenril’s people to make it look like a slip-and-fall.”

Tagging forward to @thevikingwoman @ocean-in-my-rebel-soul @buttsonthebeach @alyssalenko @apostatetabris back to @galadrieljones @oops-gingermoment @mrscullensrutherford @happywife416 @ma-sulevin @bronzeagelove and anyone else who wants to play! Let’s see what ya’ll are working on!

First Line Meme

Tagged by @thevikingwoman  – thanks lethallin! I did this a while back – see here – but I have written more since then!

Rules: post the first line of your last 10 fics, then tag 10 people!

1. It’s been almost a year since the Exalted Council, and almost a year since Arya lost her left arm.
Blackwall x Arya Lavellan // Hold Me Up, Tie Me Down (WIP – almost finished!)

2. “So,” Hawke said. She handed Fenris a glass of wine and plopped down beside him in front of the fireplace. “Sebastian has been leaning on you pretty hard lately, hasn’t he?”
Fenris x Rynne Hawke // Losing My Religion

3. Fenris had lost count of the number of times he’d walked away from Hawke.
Fenris x Rynne Hawke // Baby, Come Back And Fight With Me

4. Crumbs crumbling in her fingers. She offers the scone to me. “Would you like some?”
Solas x Elia Lavellan from Cole’s POV // Cole

5. When Fenris finally decided to open up to Hawke, he made sure that he was drunk.
Fenris x Rynne Hawke // Astia Valla Femundis

6. Hawke’s saunter was slow and casual as she led Fenris, Anders and Varric into the Blooming Rose. Once they reached the main room, she shifted her weight to one hip and folded her arms.
Fenris x Rynne Hawke // Always Smiling

7. A bright bark of laughter floats out of the bookshop.
Blackwall x Arya Lavellan // Her Perfumed Sanctuary

8. With all the care of a mother laying down a child, Hawke laid her cards on the table.
Fenris x Rynne Hawke // Gambling

9. “Come on, Chuckles, you should loosen up once in a while. Get your head out of your paints and your parchment. Consider it a team building exercise.”
Solas x Elia Lavellan // Stand Your Ground

10. A firm grip shook Nil’s shoulder, and he jolted at the rude awakening. 
Aloy x Nil // “No worries, we still have time.”

Anyone see any patterns in my first lines? I’m not really sure – I think I tend to try and deliver the reader into the middle of a scene instead of setting it up (line #6 is an exception to this), but otherwise there aren’t too many patterns that I can discern. Anyone else see anything?

Tagging forward to @apostatetabris @happywife416 @buttsonthebeach @ocean-in-my-rebel-soul @bronzeagelove @thealexmachina @ma-sulevin @sun-and-shadow-aloy and anyone else who would like to play because I am horrible and probably forgetting some people whose first lines would be really interesting to see.
