From [livejournal.com profile] moshesque. Post the first sentence from each of your 25 most recent fanfic pieces and try to find a pattern.

Whatever it was that made Tezuka stay he never regretted it. From Stay

Sometimes Sirius stares. From Allowances

Quatre's watching Trowa drink. From Prowl (This one isn't really mine. I wrote this during last months writeathon and it was a challenge to take the first line of someone else's fic. I used [livejournal.com profile] thejennabides story The End of Breath. The original first line is: "Quatre's watching Trowa sleep.")

Tezuka stood in front of the door several minutes after Yumiko had closed it, looking at the blue paint and the small cracks in the wood. From Linger

He was just a boy. From Player's Hands

"Cookies?" Heero looked down at the plate. From Sharing

"My sister used to be allergic to pollen. From Sting

"I brought you some food, captain," Auda said as he entered the room balancing a tray in one hand and some files in the other. From Hindsight

What sucked the most, Quatre Winner thought as he dragged himself through the cold, wet forest, was that his watch had broken. From For Luck

Quatre buried his head in his hands and muttered under his breath, "Not again!" From The Losing Edge

"… and his legs go on forever," Quatre said with a dreamy expression. From All About Trowa

The man at the front desk looked him up and down and gave him a hard stare. From Homecoming

Quatre put a hand over his mouth and nose and tried not to breathe. From Spring Blossoms

Duo smelled the cup, enjoying the aroma of the tea before bringing it slowly to his lips and taking a sip. From To each their own

Trowa stopped at the door of Quatre's office frozen. From Signs


It was the moment Quatre entered the atmosphere when he knew, right in his heart, that Earth was special. From Better View

"This isn't fair!" yelled Duo as he was led to the dungeon. From The Thief and the Prince

Quatre had realized, very early on in his life, that people around him didn't see the things he did. From Colors in the Wind

Hilde Shbeiker quickly gathered the make-up scattered all over the table and put it inside her bag. From The Dead Will Come

Through the busy streets of New York people rush by every day. From Moto Perpetuo

It was the gossip at the water cooler. From Love Advice

He glared at the mirror on the left wall of the room. From Wind of Change

"Why?" Duo moaned. From Tamales

Many of his men had been hurt in the fight with Quatre's ship and the subsequent attack of the sea creature but Heero still gave the order to set on the repairs of the ship immediately. From The Curse

He had been picked in a test, just like everyone else. From Forty Miles of Bad Road


A pattern you say? Well, I mostly start with an action, as if you picked the story in the middle of the scene and build from there. Most of these are that way. There are several that start with dialogue too. I don't do well building an atmosphere before I start the action. i like going directly to what the characters are doing and thinking before setting the background. The only exception in this list is Moto Perpetuo that needed the stage set before I had Trowa and Quatre walk in, like a concert. Other than that, well, Quatre's name is mentioned quite a few times ^^;;
