hai guise!

* A week of technological disaster is at an end. \o/ Word, iTunes, VLC, Firefox, I have missed you all dearly, welcome back.

* There are some new people around these parts - hello!

* Consequently, a game! Previously seen at penknife's, this looks fun, and suits my tendencies to do this sort of thing anyway:

Name a character or pairing from a fandom I'm familiar with, and I'll give you a song lyric (or possibly a line of poetry) that I think fits. If you felt inspired to write something using the quote as a prompt, I would not be unhappy.

Fandoms: HP, Good Omens, Doctor Who (new), Torchwood, SGA, SPN, Merlin, His Dark Materials, Firefly, or anything else you've seen me talk about.

These are all a little ominous, I do apologise!

Ianto:

So here we are reinventing the wheel
I'm shaking hands with a hurricane
It's a colour that I can't describe
It's a language I can't understand
Ambition, tearing out the heart of you
Carving lines into you
Dripping down the sides of you
We will not be the last.

-- 'The Pioneers', Bloc Party

Jack/Ianto:

As logic stands
You couldn't meet a man who's from the future
But logic broke as he appeared
He spoke about the future
"We're not gonna make it,"
He explained how the end will come

You and me were never meant to be part of the future
All we have is now
All we've ever had was now

-- 'All We Have Is Now', The Flaming Lips

James:

Come as you are, sweetheart, come as you are
You know you've got nothing to prove
I'll put you to bed, you can let it all go
You've been playing too rough lately

You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can't go on too long
You're a tragedy starting to happen.

-- 'Red', Elbow

Oh my. The one about James may have broken my heart, just now. So true, so sad.

Also, that Flaming Lips song sounds mighty cool.

OH JAMES. D:

It is! It is from the end of a concept album about pink robots.
