The first 10 people to comment on this post get to request a drabble (or ficlet, if I feel like it) on a subject/character of their choosing from me. In return, they have to post this in their journal (not that I'd enforce it if I could, but that's how it supposedly goes). Post all fandoms you're willing to write(/draw) for.

Fandoms:
X-Men (and satellites) (may include X-Project)
Harry Potter
Young Wizards
Neopets
Abhorsen (warning: I don't have the books with me)
Star Wars (warning: limited knowledge of EU and obscure movie details)
Enchanted Forest Chronicles
Winnie the Pooh
Vor (...maybe?)
write-ins may be considered, especially since I suspect I'm forgetting something

Special Rules: If I'm not able or willing to do your request in good faith due to cluelessness, differences in interpretation, or sheer defeat (such as discovering I can't do a decent Miles-voice; I have no idea), I will ask if you want something else or reinterpret wildly. Though I suppose I could probably do a hundred words of almost anything; whether they'd be any good or just embarrass us both is another question.

Edit: First ten people to comment requesting a ficlet! There are considerably more comments than requests, as I've filled the first few in the comments and some people have responded further. I'm currently at 6 requests, 6 completed. (Maybe I should give them their own posts?)

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Oh my goodness, so many fun things to pick from! Alas, looks like I'm comment #11, but if you have the spare time, I'd love to see anything with Magneto (I'm an old X-men fan). Or HP, or Pooh, or SW... not picky, as you probably can tell.

Also, may I friend you? :)

You're actually only the fourth request. The rest is minificlets and chatter. ;) And I would be honored to be friended; I'll issue a cordial warning that our politics don't mesh well, but I'm used to that on my friendlist and it's not one of my more frequent topics.

Magneto, huh? *pokes at neglected X-bunnies*

Okay, got it. I'm afraid it's a little strange, as I was seized by the impulse to try a crossover.

"You may wish to be alert, my Master. I've recently had a most peculiar guest, and I believe him to be on his way toward the Galactic Core."

"Peculiar in what way?" Darth Sidious eyed his apprentice sourly. "Are you trying to take up suborning Jedi yourself?"

Dooku bowed his head. "As it happens, I don't believe him to be Force-sensitive at all. Which only makes it all the more curious that he appears to be capable of manipulating both metal and energy fields at a distance."

"Lightsaber blades?"

"There was no convenient occasion for a test." Dooku looked the hologram in the eye. "That is not, however, the strangest thing about him. He asked me whether the war had started yet."

Silence.

"Have you an explanation for this?" Sidious asked at last.

"I have been trying to formulate one that is more reasonable than his claim to be from another universe where we are fictional characters."

"Interesting. Well, I shall look forward to his arrival." Sidious looked off to the side. "A further question."

"Yes, my Master?"

"What is that thing on your desk?"

Dooku looked down. The man calling himself Magneto was enough of a challenge to explain, but fairly urgent; he had really hoped to avoid discussing his second unusual visitor. "I believe it's intended to be a depiction of an infant Gamorrean," he said truthfully, "although not a very accurate one."

He also clamped down on it carefully in the Force so that the creature of fabric and fluff would not announce to the Sith Master, with as much courage as it could muster, that its name was P-p-p-piglet.

*dies*

*rereads and dies again*

*rerereads and just gigglefits hysterically*

*bows* :)

Wa-ha-ha!!! Hee-hee! Poor Piglet! He's going to need a rescue from Pooh (and Tigger!). Someone left the dimensional gate open, I see. *grin*

Sorry I missed this till now, my LJ isn't reliably sending me email notifications of people's replies. -_-

And Magneto meets Sidious?? Which Maggie is it? Erik Lensherr who is 'mostly well', or 1980's "I'm going to rule the world!" Magneto? (I like 'em both, actually...)

Thanks so much!

Someone apparently did. And man, that icon is so appropriate... *giggling*

I'm not entirely sure what stage Magneto's in at the moment or what he's planning to do when he gets to Sidious... although the notion is forming that he's as well as one can be when the New Mutants have hopped dimensions and gotten themselves into trouble again, and he may in fact be looking for THEM on Coruscant. Possibly this whole thing is the result of a malfunction in Limbo.

Yes, I think that would explain it nicely.

*Falls off chair, laughing. Dies, just dies!*

Dooku with Piglet is irresistible. Or it would be, if I had anything else to do with them. I suspect they could have an interesting conversation.

*Lol!* I imagine so, if Dooku would stop using the Force to keep Piglet quiet and Piglet could relax enough to stop stammering . . . (Plus, for some odd reason, I have this visual of Magneto levitating Dooku upside down . . . )

Oh, keeping him quiet was only for while he had Sidious on the comm. I'm sure he'd let Piglet talk in private. The stammering, on the other hand....

I think I concluded Magneto was there looking for the New Mutants, who had hared off into the wrong universe again, and that they'd all end up on Coruscant. Which, er, I might have already said in another comment. However, the plot-planning got that far and then fizzled.

*Smirks* Methinks Dooku would've had a crash course in patience, trying to deal with poor Piglet's stammering . . .

Ooops! Sorry about that. I was mostly just reading the SW goodies, because I'm unfamiliar with a lot of the other fandoms that were requested.

Oh, nothing for you to apologize for. I was semi-apologizing for possibly repeating myself. *g*

If you did, I wouldn't've known! I'm bad about not paying attention to other comments - I've had other stories and things spoiled before by trying to read other comments, so I try to skip over them when it comes to comments on fanfic. Which is probably not the best policy in the world, but I like to read stories without knowing what's going to happen (unless I'm really worried about something and can't bring myself to read unless I know for sure it will or won't happen), so . . . *Shrugs, a bit helplessly*
