...for tv_universe. The challenges were to do a popular meme based on a TV character, and to write a short fic giving a TV character a superpower. I kind of combined mine.

Elixir
Fandom: Castle
Characters: Martha Rodgers, Alexis Castle
Words: 562
Notes: Martha suddenly acquires a superpower. This story is named after a character who has this particular power; check it out if you want. Oh, and this is a follow-up of sorts to a story I did for a body-switch prompt. :)

“Grams! I can’t believe you went back to that crazy psychic after what happened the last time!”

So this comes to me from phoebesmum. Why I don't usually do these, is, while I think of myself as a reasonably interesting person in real life, online I find I am rather dull. But, anyway. Onward!

SIX NAMES YOU GO BY:
1. Cathy
2. CK, that's how I sign my emails, cards, other things
3. catko 
4. ccatko, when the above is unavailable. Yes, both names seem rather silly to me now, but when I joined these sites, little did I know how much I'd be using them.
5. cko. I know, horribly unoriginal. But if you think those are bad, my youtube name is......
6. catjackod. Which yes, I know what that looks like. I swear, I was registering, and it kept saying "add another letter, add another letter" so this is where it ended up. You hush,blue_sunflowers .

THREE THINGS YOU ARE WEARING RIGHT NOW:
1. Laptop. My trusty, can't hardly imagine a day without it Macbook.

THREE PEOPLE WHOM YOU HOPE WILL DO THE MEME
1. blue_sunflowers , because she doesn't ever do these things.

This is a fandom character meme courtesy fandom_memes  via nad141993 . Inspired by blue_sunflowers , mine came out more like short fics, so I decided to group some, make them into half-drabbles, drabbles, double-drabbles and the like, and post them as fic. As always, many ideas came from the cool crew at reaperdmv.com. Thanks, you guys.

The meme is described by nad141993. You pick 10 characters of your favorite fandom & answer the questions. Don’t read the questions first, and try some kind of random order for your characters. Even if you only answer the questions and don’t try to do stories, it’s great fun to think about how these characters would react, and what brings them to certain situations.

( Anyway, here’s mine: )

Saw this in several places. Since this is my first foray, I thought something short and structured would be good to start. Kinda weak, but I swore not to edit.
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it’s over. No lingering!
4. Do ten of these, then post them.
