First-lines-of-fic Meme

I was tagged by @pretty-thief. Thank you so much for this, because it sent me looking back into some of my wips that I haven't been able to work on in a long time.

Rules: share the first lines of ten of your most recent fanfics and tag ten people. If you have written fewer than ten, don’t be shy and share anyway

I don't have any finished fics so I'll do WIPs. I'm not tagging anyone for now but please if you see this, do share and tag me!!! I wanna see what everyone is working on.

1. beneath my palms

(The Locked Tomb, a crossover AU where lyctors and cavaliers function like users and standos from JoJo's Bizarre Adventures)

Harrow felt the Lyctor three days before she found her. Ianthe Tridentarius. At least, that’s what last she had called the young woman. These days she’d have more titles. Accomplishments, for the glory of the God Emperor. She was probably the Saint of something by now as well, but Harrow hadn’t known Naberius Tern long enough to make a guess as to the Saint of what. At first she attempted to avoid Ianthe, just as she had done for… months, perhaps? Harrow wasn’t sure. She simply hadn’t stopped moving. Hadn’t stayed for long on any planetoid, hadn’t used necromancy more than necessary, had preferred to bleed or hurt instead of healing herself. She had been careful to disguise her thalergy, and even more meticulous in hiding her thanergy. It was doomed to eventually fail, of course. Harrow wasn’t stupid. But it was alright. Harrow didn’t need forever. She just needed long enough. Gideon had taught her that.

2. It’s in the Blood

(ASOIAF, aka "Video Ja(i)mes", a post-canon AU fic where Jaime dies and is trapped in a video-game-esque loop of dying and spawning again, facing different foes that are all aspects of himself)

Jaime awoke with a gasp, shaking off the dirty water on his face. Armor creaked as he attempted to sit up. He groaned and surrendered to the mud, which caked his beard and part of his overgrown hair. No helm. He should have his helm.

3. Nothing but Truth

(ASOIAF, Jaime and Brienne but it's the Jane Austen Emma dynamic)

The wind carried the voice to Jaime Lannister long before he reached the mansion. “…sensical! Unbelievable!” Jaime frowned. It was a man’s voice. An unknown one, at that. But Brienne hadn’t mentioned-- A door slammed shut. Someone shouted instructions, and a carriage began moving on the gravel. As Jaime took a turn around some bushes, the carriage appeared on the main path, heading away at full speed. “…ever have I seen! The creature! I can’t even…!” the man kept saying from his carriage, heavens knew to who. Jaime stared blankly after it, wishing mercy on the poor coachman, until another voice came to him from the house. “… ienne! Come back this minute! Brieeeeneeeeeee!” Resuming his walk towards the main door, Jaime saw as a horse left the stables and galloped away into the hills.

4. mallfic (working title)

(ASOIAF, mod AU where Jaime has to chaperone Myrcella's playdate with Sansa at the mall. Since Myrcella has a crush on Sansa and wants to appear cool, she asks him to walk behind them 10 steps. shenanigans ensue.)

Jaime sat on the driver’s seat blowing out air. He checked the mirrors, adjusted his hair a little, and glanced at his wristwatch. 9:15 am. He turned to look at the back seat and grinned. “Ready?” Myrcella looked back at him with all the worry, shame, and determination an 11-year-old could muster. “Uncle,” she said, solemnly. “Before we go, there is something I need to ask you.”

5. Evenstar

(ASOIAF, post-canon AU where Brienne inherits the title of Evenstar halfway North to deliver Sansa. Consequences ensue.)

The news reached them at the inn. Pod trotted back from his incursion with a face twisted by worry, fighting the weight of the travel bag that he carried on his back. “S-ser,” he whispered in a hurry, arms overflowing with stale bread and game pie. “It’s m-my lady ser, ser.”  Jaime frowned in alarm and looked over his shoulder. Somewhere in the woods they had left the ladies, waiting for their return. Pod shook his head, trembling. “It’s her l-lord father, ser. T-Tarth has fallen.”

6. blindly into the light

(ASOIAF, western AU where Brienne captures the gunslinger known as the Kingslayer but doesn't intend to get the reward, for reasons only she knows)

The sound of her gun cocking roused him up.  “Easy,” she warned. The Kingslayer stayed on the floor, breathing heavily. The cave was dark enough she couldn’t see his expression, but she could read fear in his groggy silence. “Up,” she ordered. Clothes rustled as he obeyed, and Brienne almost smirked. She could feel his tension as he realized his weapons were gone. “Slowly,” she drawled, eyes and muzzle trained on his silhouette.  He stood as tall as he was, hands above his head. She heard him swallow. “How did you find me?” His voice was deep and dry. Contained.

7. Honour & Gloury (working title)

(ASOIAF, mod AU where dragons are kept as expensive pets. as a big fan of a book series about dragons, Brienne has always wanted one since childhood, but she grapples with finding joy in the whimsy while facing the hardships of grief)

Brienne wanted a dragon. It was as true as the blue of her eyes, and the freckles of her nose. A desire so hers as mists belonged to Tarth. 

8. hermione & jaime crack (working title)

(ASOIAF & Harry Potter, a post-canon Hermione Granger--the newfound owner of complex PTSD--manages to enter the worlds of books, encounters one Jaime Lannister one day, they bond over loss and being children of war)

Hermione Granger blinked fast, adjusting to the light. She had been on the Room of Requirements just a second ago, before-- “Stranger take me,” a rough voice said. “Where did you come from?”  An unequivocally metallic sound filled the air, and Hermione saw the white sword gleaming in the bright morning. It had been nighttime just a moment ago. The man was dressed as a knight in full white armor, with a matching helm on his head and a white cape on his shoulders.  Hermione held tightly to the book in her hand, and gasped, “What the fuck?”

9. King’s Landing High School Chivalry Club

(ASOIAF, crossover Mod AU with Ouran High School Host Club where Brienne needs to face the only thing worse than rich men: rich kids)

“No way,” Brienne whispered, dashing directly to the richly dressed wall where the sword hung.  Her steps echoed as she approached, a testament to the size of the room, which was full of knicknacks till the eye could see, and yet it wasn’t full enough. She hesitated a moment in front of the sword, breathing softly as she deliberated, but resolved to take the risk. With careful, gentle hands, she unhung the painfully detailed golden scabbard, admiring the matching lion-shaped pommel. “It’s okay,” she muttered to herself as she gripped the handle to unsheathe it. “It can’t be an antique.” “Hey, that’s an antique!”

10. Cyborg AU (working title)

(ASOIAF, sci-fi AU. in a world where augmentations and cyborgs are seen as lesser because only truly wealthy people can keep up with unregulated bodies, Jaime Lannister is the only one who chose to become one to wage wars for his father and his sister, the heir of an interplanetary empire. Brienne is a doctor specialized on cyborgs, given to the Lannisters as a human resource from the Starks as part of a thin and delicate deal to try to keep the powers that be in balance long enough to retrieve the Stark children from danger.)

The door swiped open to reveal a seven-feet golden armoured mass.  Even though Brienne knew he’d be coming, her breath caught. Jaime Lannister, Lord Commander of the Lannister Army, Lord Commander of the Queensguard, was a sight to behold. His full head helmet was still on, his golden suit dented and ashened, his blastproof white cloak soiled and burnt. And his arm--his arm. It was the stuff of legends. The Lord Commander dashed in, shouting. He stopped the first Silent Brother that walked his way, and by then every soldier on a bed, and every other Silent Sibling and Maester in the room, were eyeing each other.  The golden helmet glanced around the medical facility, and when he spotted her he stomped her way. It wasn’t her area of expertise, but the exo-suit wasn’t supposed to make all that whirring, Brienne was sure.   She straightened herself and hoped, once again, Lady Catelyn knew what she was doing.

jon/satin and i will not be taking any criticisms 

23.  Unpopular character you love?

not to be a predictable bitch but: cersei. im not sure about her popularity re: the wider fandom, but it’s definitely not popular in these parts lmao. Also in terms of overall percentage of “who?” replies when i talk about him: Satin is probably overall unpopular, so I’ll say him as well.

1 & 14 pretty please!

1. Favorite fic you wrote this year

Now that I’m past the writing of it, Wine Down. And I’m enjoying the ol’ ball and chain quite a lot while I’m still writing it and I can finally see the finish line.

14. Favorite fic you read this year

Worth by @angel-deux-writes is up there, and so are two fics by @robotsdance: Beast and here be dragons. All three fics make me feel things that I think only my soul feels, and I was very privileged to be able to read them before they were published, and then had to deal with the shivering anticipation that maybe others would read them too and know how special they were <3
