Drabble Me This

In honor of Valentine's Day, a writing challenge!



Rules:

Fandom: any fandom.
Word count: According to my sources, a drabble is precisely 100 words. No more, no less.
Main theme: What's love got to do with it?
Ratings: No restrictions.
Duration: Challenge opens now (February 12) and runs for a week. Closes at the end of day Friday, February 19.



A while ago I did an experiment in precise writing with ficlets of exactly 100 words and it was so much fun and I felt so accomplished that I decided to do it again. But I get bored looking at my own stuff, so... here you go. We should all be able to come up with 100 words in a week's time, right?

Post your fics as comments to this entry, or post them in your own journal and link to your story below. Feel free to do as few or as many as you want, and if you read one, be sure to leave a review or a comment. Everyone's welcome, so spread the word.

I love love love how you write. Anything and everything, even stuff done in a subject I totally don't get. The last line is perfect. I really do feel like these are fic haikus because they are like stuffing a complete story into 100 words and the last bit is usually some kind of twist. ♥

I love the skill of trimming (or adding) to be exact. It gets to be like a game sometimes (and an addictive one). That aside, I thank you for your words. ♥

Yes, it's totally addictive! And you're brilliant, and I love you! :D
