ltlj and all over my friends list: the meme where you take the first line of someone else's story and use that in a drabble. Any fandom, any rating.
The drabble I did using one ofltlj's first lines is here, and here are a bunch of my own first lines:
Hercules rolled over on the heap of straw and sat up, surprised.
I’m going insane.
Iolaus nearly spit out his wine when he heard the news.
Clotho spins, Lachesis weaves, Atropos cuts.
They'd made an early camp, intending to leave before dawn.
"I hate digging," Iolaus muttered.
The ravine got darker with every echoing footstep.
Iolaus woke because a feather was tickling his nose.
Iolaus counted stars, using the rhythm of Hercules' measured breaths.

I've got two or three HtLJ stories started (and they've been started for 2-ish years) but I can never seem to find my voice for them. So they collect virtual dust. *sigh*
