Snowflake Challenge, Day 5


Stretch yourself a little and try something new. Go play in a new fandom or with a new pairing. Try working in a new medium. Or consume different fanworks. Give that new fandom a go. Listen to a podfic or watch some vids if you haven’t before.

I ended up doing this one twice:

Fanfic:

Working Girl (Her Real Business is Secrets)
Miss Scarlet (Clue) | teen | ~1,100 words
A motor rumbles in the distance, slightly louder than the thunder rolling overhead. She smooths out the line of her dress, bends over the hood of her car just as a pair of headlights flare through the wet shadows at the end of the road.

I wrote this for [personal profile] fandom_stocking, but I had this challenge in mind when I chose this particular fandom. Clue is a movie I absolutely adore, but I just never got around to writing in it.

Tumblr is such an image-heavy platform. I'm very jealous of the people who make gorgeous gifs and photosets. I did these two yesterday afternoon, and I'm actually fairly pleased with the result. At least, I like them better than my previous attempts.
