Stolen from solsticezero , but everybody's doing it!

Post a sentence (or paragraph) or two from as many of your WIPs as you want, with no explanation attached.

Ianto felt a bit unmannerly -- as if taking liberties with a stranger. This is still Jack, he reminded himself. He turned sideways. "So..." And he'd meant to quiz Jack about the history of the tech that had done this to them, but he saw Jack's expression -- lips slightly parted, he looked hungry. And pretty. No. Sexy. He was both foreign and familiar and Jack and... he was really goddamned pretty.

When Elizabeth shuts her front door behind her, turns and locks it, Neal is confused. She's coming with them,then. Somewhere. She peeks into the passenger side and exchanges some sort of complicated nonverbal eye language with Peter (Eye Chinese?) and Neal traces the lines in her palm as it presses against the rear right window before it slides downward and disappears, opens the back door.

"Ianto, will you help me with something?"

"Sure, what do you..." his voice trailed off as Gwen placed the cool black metal handle of the office scissors in his hand.

"Cut my hair."

Most intriguing, especially the last one.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

I can't keep secrets. They're trapped. In the Hub. Oooweeeeoooooo... dark_fest!

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

lol. interesting!
Love your icon!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

They do not have shipwars. They go out for lattes and to feed the ducks bread crusts. :)

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

haha, that is now canon in my head.

[alba17.livejournal.com]

Omg, the first is a gender swap! I'm so out of it on the White Collar thing. :( Never seen it! Love the ominous tone in the last one. LOL!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Omg, the first is a gender swap!

:D

White Collar is only one season in. You might dig it! TY. :)

[pocky_slash.livejournal.com]

Anything with both Ianto and Gwen immediately grabs my interest, obvs XD

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

OBVS!

I'm really having fun writing them. It's interesting leaving Jack out of something for a change. :D

[dremiel.livejournal.com]

Oooh, J/I femslash would be awesome! And oddly, not something I've seen before.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Oh, good! I wasn't sure if people would be into this or not.

It's actually RP with xtricks. We'll post it pretty soon. :D

[dremiel.livejournal.com]

Yay! *bounces* Totally into it!

I've seen plenty of genderswap but this is the first I can remember seeing where both guys swap.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Almost everybody is swapped! It's a huge storyline, but we'll just post the PWP for now.

Gwen, Martha, Andy, Owen are all genderswapped as well in this plotline(!)

[dremiel.livejournal.com]

*swoons*

You know, it's my birthday tomorrow...

*is shameless*

[withlightning.livejournal.com]

But... I like Gwen's hair. It's long and shiny and black! It's so pretty - just like Gwen herself. He isn't going to cut it really short, is he? *pouts*

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

It's just a story! It'll grow back! :)

She'll look cute. I trust Ianto not to get out a bowl.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

WORKING ON IT! :)

[cowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Ooh...that third one! I'm not sure if it's because it's Ianto/Gwen or because of the "cool black metal" but I'm definitely intrigued!

[mimarie.livejournal.com]

I love that unmannerly in the first one. What a very Ianto word! Also rather intrigued by the third...

Hmm, I fancy a go at this :)

[lefaym.livejournal.com]

OMG YOU MUST SUSPEND YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AND WRITE THEM ALL NOW. :P

Seriously, though, they all sound great. White Collar fic! I need to start writing White Collar fic! Happy fandom!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Cool. It's for dark_fest but it isn't that dark. I'm making it darker. :D

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Whew, good to know... i'm RPing Ianto, which is pretty fun.

Doo eeet!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

I need a week off! Too much work. :/

The White Collar one is with Anya and it's all in email so far. (And her idea.) GREAT fandom, so far. There's some really good fic out there.

[lefaym.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I actually haven't seen any bad!fic for White Collar yet. Some that's not so good, maybe, but nothing that's fallen from the precipice into the bad!fic vortex. (Hmm... do vortexes have precipices? This may be a bad metaphor.) Also, as you were saying the other day, NO BASHING. :D

[elainasaunt.livejournal.com]

I want them all, but am waiting for the White Collar one in particular with, as someone on my Facebook said the other day, baited breath. (Upon which someone else commented, "Like a penguin?")

[kel-reiley.livejournal.com]

the 1st one... i'm guessing genderfuck?
and ianto cutting gwen's hair?! oh i foresee a fiasco

[wynkat1313.livejournal.com]

oh my! please tell me your going to finish that first one... pretty please?

[topgeargirl2.livejournal.com]

These were all very interesting.

yay, White Collar.

[mimarie.livejournal.com]

:) I always imagine him going over conversations afterwards, especially where he got a bit enthusiastic and said whatever was on his mind, wondering what people thought of him...

(is done. Good grief I need to finish something!)

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

We are! We are working on it now. :D I'm happy you want to read it!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Totally genderfuck. It's part of a longer thing, but working on the porny part.

We'll see about the fiasco. It IS DARK FEST.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

YAY WC!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

LOL, BAITED. Yes!

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Not sure why. Maybe White Collar is just attracting some more experienced writers? I was talking about that with Anya, and for folks seeing/doing the threesome dynamic, it can be more technically difficult, so that may be a reason, too.

[wynkat1313.livejournal.com]

*squee* yay!

[canaana.livejournal.com]

"Cut my hair."

I so want to know where this is going.
