Let's get this started! Here are a few of the drabbles I wrote this past 30 days. Happy reading!

Title: Roleplaying
Fandom: Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery
“Diana, you must be Bess. She can’t be redheaded.”
Although tempted, Diana protested, “I don’t know, Anne. Miss Stacey will scold if she finds out you’ve been a highwayman. He robs and kills people!”
“But he’s so brave. And he wears lace and a hat,” Anne sighed.
“Do I have to die at the end?”
“Bess kills herself to save her true love! It’s so romantic.” Anne was positively starry-eyed.
Minnie ran up to the girls. “Diana, Mama says you have to set the table.”
Anne sighed. “That’s that, then. I do wonder what it’s like to be a highwayman.”
Title: Wardrobe Malfunctions
Fandoms: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe / [other fandom revealed at the end]
Lucy ran forward. “You’ll see! There’s a wood in the wardrobe!”
Peter and Susan sighed. Edmund sneered. “All right, Lu,” Peter said and followed her. The others trailed behind.
Somehow all four managed to fit into the wardrobe at the same time. Lucy pushed ahead, expecting any moment to feel cold air and snow.
They didn’t arrive in a winter forest. The Pevensies stepped into a large room with bright lights, shiny walls, and a man who looked surprised to see them.
Lucy stepped forward. “Who are you and what have you done with Narnia?”
“I’m the Doctor. What’s Narnia?”
Title: Employee Bonding
Fandom: Witch Hunter Robin
Warnings: Potentially slight OOC
“This is highly improper,” Amon said sternly.
“But Dojima asked me,” Robin said, peering up over the frames of her glasses.
“Nevertheless, it’s a rash use of your powers. It’s dangerous to use them outside of training or assignments.”
“Aw, come on,” Dojima whined, perched on a stool next to Robin at Master Harry’s. “We’re being careful.”
Even Harry chimed in. “I must admit, it’s an original use of Robin’s powers.”
Amon gave up. He looked on resignedly as the three of them huddled together around a clump of fire floating above Robin’s fingers. On long skewers, they toasted marshmallows.
Author's Notes:
--"Roleplaying": If Anne decided that floating down a stream in a leaky boat to play the Lady of Shallot was a good idea, you know she would wanted to play "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes. For full entertainment, you can read the poem itself here. Loreena McKennitt has also set it to music.
--"Wardrobe Malfunctions": the original title for this was "Bigger On the Inside until about two minutes ago, when I realized this was better. I didn't want to say the full crossover at the beginning because that would have given the ending away. The idea for this one actually came about a few months ago in my LJ. In connection, I adore today's xkcd comic.
