Meme: First and Last Lines
I was tagged over on Tumblr, but I'm bringing my answers over here too!
Rules: go through your last 5 fics and share the first and last line. No context.
the scent of orange and wildflowers
first: There was a small face watching her from between the leaves of the orange trees.
last: When she returned to her room, having made herself queen, Eugenides was waiting for her, and Irene ran into his arms.
the light of other suns
first: The Eight, the Harmonious Council of the Empire, met in Alterra, the city where Agat and Rolery, who birthed the first of the new Werelians, survived that bitterest Winter of the Tenth Year and forged a single people.
last: But that sun would still shine, white-gold like this, and when he closed his eyes, that light still hung in the darkness.
sweetness and salves:
first: The mason bees return first.
last: It is, all of Willowlands agree, an auspicious sign.
blood in the water, smoke in the sky
first: There is blood in the water.
last: But first: rest.
the dark, the light, the flame
first: The rumors are so horrifying that at first Lan Wangji simply…cannot believe them.
last: When their lips meet, Lan Wangji tastes salt and Wei Ying and the fire of hope.
Encouraging all the writers on my flist to do this!
