a brief stop in Siberia

The weather today was thoroughly gloomy. It wasn't so much the rain (though there was rain on the way home), it was the gloom. So much for August. Feh.

Gloom was not helped by having a two-and-a-half-hour meeting in a room that had the (unadjustable) air conditioning set for "middle of heatwave" -- in other words, we were all freezing. Everyone brought in their coats or cardigans. I'm not joking.

(And yes, we would have liked to have moved to another room, but there is a severe shortage of meeting rooms, so we were stuck.)

Not really that bad a day, but. Gloomy.

The Secret Sits

We dance round in a ring and suppose,
But the Secret sits in the middle and knows.

because I am stuck on a couple of WIPs and need a jolt

Every person who wants to gets to request a drabble (real drabble: 100 words exactly) from you. Post all fandoms you're willing to write for. Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and with a prompt, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.

(Side note: you are free to pick the relationship, but I reserve the right to write my own take on it.)

(Side note 2: please do give me a prompt. Prompts are good.)
