[meme] Give Me A Title, I'll Tell You A Tale Redux

[escritoireazul]

It seems that title game is going around again, and I had so much fun with it the last time I played (see links below), so I thought I'd do it again.

Give me a title (and whatever other details you'd like to include -- fandom, pairing, prompt, whatever), and I'll tell you the story I would write to it. (I haven't finished any of the stories from last time, but I do have some in progress from it, so you never know what I'll actually end up writing.)

It's a ton of fun, and just the thing for a cold, snowy, icy day.

+ "Whisky Moon" [Harry Potter]
+ "Out of Time" [Lost], "Hustle & Flow" [BtVS/Angel], "OneStop Sales" [BtVS], "Not A Pizza Hangover" [Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants], and "Blank Note" [Lost/BtVS]

House Meets His Match

Faith/House

Faith is rushed to the Plainsborough hospital with severe injuries after a huge apocalyptic battle. She should not be healing this fast and it intrigues House, and so does she.

She's the only patient that's not afraid of him and gives lip back.

"Trippin' the Light Fantastic" [BtVS] Dawn post Chosen on her own, maybe a little Xander.

"Registered Simulcast" [Anita Blake/BtVS] Nathaniel, Jason, Faith. Jean Claude started a new venture featuring some of his best strippers.

"Transparent" [Ugly Betty] Daniel, Betty. They have both reached their breaking point.

'Love The Skin You're In', any type of Mystique fic.

(I've been meaning to write a story to that title for years, but have never got around to it, so I figure I should try fobbing it off on someone else. *g*)
