Getting my writing mojo motor back up and running...

Help me crack the ol' writing knuckles, get the motor running again. I've got a bunch of stories started, most actually *due* for something or someone and I'm just having trouble getting... started again.


Based on a writing exercise we used to get at high school - throw one beginning sentence at me, and I'll write you a paragraph continuing it.


Anything I usually write. Y'all should be mostly familiar by now... :D

Um, I cheated. It's more than one sentence. Ha ha!

It's like an itch beneath Dean's skin, all morning, that feeling that something isn't right. He's staring, he knows it, being weird, but he can't stop. Sam raises an eyebrow at him over his menu,(he's getting the waffles, Dean knows it and Sam knows it), and the expression just makes everything worse, or clearer. "Dude, did you slip out last night for a face lift?"

Sam's mouth twists into a frown, even worse, then, and he leans across the table to slap a broad palm against Dean's forehead. "What?" Dean says, hunching back against the booth. "Just checking for a fever, you've been acting like a weirdo all morning."

It's no big deal, nothing obvious, but Dean knows Sam, he spends half his days looking at that face, watching the slope of those shoulders and this person, undeniably Sam, is not the brother who collapsed under the sheets last night.

"Seriously, are you getting younger?"

Fifteen years down the road and he was still feeling bitter. Fucking Sam.

Darn! So, I was all cackling with glee, thinking, "haha, Kel will totally get the reference to that fic we were going to write" and then I realized that I have the details wrong! Sam was supposed to think he was 20, or whatever, and still at Stanford! All my cleverness was for naught!

This just can't... I just *can't* write only one paragraph to this awesome beginning hon...

We will write this fic... oh yes, we will *write* this fic... :D I think it's a stellar idea that Sam is getting physically younger but he has no idea... maybe slowly starts losing his adultness only as time goes on...

Yes, let's please write this! Every now and again I read through our e-mails from ages ago on this I just get so excited!!! I am going to think about it this weekend... and then I have a week of school! Yay!

Dean landed on his back as the burglar held him down with familiar large hands. He blinked, hoping they hadn't woke up Jessica. "Sam?"

Yay! I love that you always play writing games! *bounces*

He picks purple, because Sam's favorite color is purple.

Jack shook his head, wondering for the hundredth time why it was always his team, on this kind of planet.

That's like a fic all in itself!

John resisted the urge to punch Dean's kindergarden teacher for suggesting his son might be "mentally challenged."

The motel rooms were circus-themed and Sam was not amused.

"Okay, so that's three," he said, and started to move.


SN preffered!
