Daily Entertainment: FIRST DAY THINGS

Today, Milliways, is the first day of Connecticut's Legislative Session, and this clerk is going bananas.

So: Write a short (three lines-ish) fic on your character and First Days.

If you can't think of something, post a character in, and people can give prompts based on the idea of firsts.

She stood facing the building and tried to calm her racing heart. All these years, all the work, all the oaths, all the discipline, and now they were finally here, the Houston branch of the Order of Merciful Aid. Sharon, her best friend and partner, grabbed her hand to give it a squeeze. "Come on," she said. "Let's show these boys how it's done."

I really need to get my hands on Andrea's canon.

I love the series but be warned, it's bloody and I've thrown in a fair bit of head canon for Andrea's past. Sharon for example is entirely my own. Also, Andrea is a back up character except for one novel and short story.

Awww. Too bad she's a back-up character, for the most part. On the other hand, that gives you more room, RP wise.

Day One: At least I ended up in one of the well-stocked survival pods - there's even a kitchen! I don't know where anyone else is, it's only me in here, and no one is answering hails.

...

There's something horrid outside the doors.

Tommy stood at attention in the sea of starched blue shirts and fresh, eager faces, about to take one huge step closer toward thrilling heroics, incredible danger-- and unimaginable pain. He figured that probably less than half of these probationary firefighters weren't even going to make it through training. But he knew for damn sure that he was going to be among the ones who did.

His hands clutched all the equipment that Locksley's uncle had told him he had to watch over as he walked to the exercise grounds. How could he dare to think that a thief like him could be a squire to someone like Robin of Locksley?

Admiral Desplains gave him a hard look as Ivan wondered if he'd missed a button,

"I know who you are and I've been told you do good work, Vorpatril. Don't disappoint me."

He listened with only half a metaphorical ear to the media coverage he was picking out of the air; the rest of his attention was focused on his consort. "What do you hear, Jeremiah?"

Jeremiah Scripture looked upon his beloved with eyes that seemed lit from within. "Everything, Michael. I hear... everything."

And Divis Mal looked upon all that he had wrought — a world changed forever and unerasably, a can of worms that would never be resealed — and he saw that it was good. And the morning and the evening were the first day.
