Meme stole from perivates on livejournal.

• Post ten pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.

• NO CAPTIONS!!! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.

• They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.

• You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.

( Whoops. I had to remove all the photos that I'd taken myself since they didn't fit the second bullet point! And it was very hard not to just fill it up with pretty boy pics. )

Who wrote 'em: fickle aka only_fiction

What it is: Rachel/Tobias, Animorphs. [used for thought speech]

What that means: Ten fics. Ten genres. Ten words or less.

Why you should try writing your own: It is so much harder than it looks. Really.

Why I'm crying on the inside: Because this really IS harder than it looks!

Other stuff I want to say: Want to see me do this for any other pairing other than the one I chose? Leave me a comment with the pairing and I'll do my best. I could use the writing exercise. XD Having actually written the meme results, NO WAY. Much too difficult to do multiple times. So first five comments only get to make requests.

( Less than a hundred words of fic and I cut it anyway? )

Taken from the_willow, my user icons of people/characters of color. I'm so used to anime that I forgot all the YGO/Japanese chars count as characters of color.

( while the light lasts/I will remember/and in the darkness/I will not forget )

Random quotes meme, borrowed from ceresi! Go here and refresh until you get five quotes that resonate with you, then put them up in your journal.

To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.

Madonna

There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.

Christopher Morley

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

You have not converted a man because you have silenced him.

John Viscount Morley

Three failures denote uncommon strength. A weakling has not enough grit to fail thrice.
