Ficlet meme – Done this before, but seriously, was stuck on my pilot, so closed it for the night, opened newest AMP bit… and was just as stuck. So this is rescuing myself from stuck, brain dead-ness.

The Rules:
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble/ficlet related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them.

Fandom, naturally, is Eureka... (This round of random fics brought to you by the CRACK in my audio library which the player randomly hit across the board. And I fast forwarded/cheated once, because when the player gave me “Eureka Commentary 110”, I couldn’t stop laughing long enough to even consider doing some sort of RP fic or something with it!)

Mostly Jack/Nathan, one Nathan/Allison, and a couple gen-ish. Spoilers for season 3.0.

Title: Cake or Death?
Fandom: Eureka

Title: Twice in a Lifetime – Part 9/9 – Epilogue
Pairing: Jack/Nathan
Rating: this segment PG, overall NC-17
Word Count: ~3100
Warnings: AU, general insane plot bunny that got out of its cage when it’s highly likely that it shouldn’t have. Also a tissue warning for those who get teary easily, which includes me!
Disclaimer: No, I don’t own them. If anyone who does own them finds me witty enough to give them to me though, I won’t object!
Summary: When you’re messing with quantum mechanics and looping in time, you never can be sure how many times you’ve tried to correct the same mess. Because it is a time loop, because only a select one or two carry the memories, maybe the events of “Once in a Lifetime” were just one loop. The loop before now catches up to 112 in this installment.

Title: Twice in a Lifetime – Part 7/9 – Chapter Five
Pairing: Jack/Nathan
Rating: this segment R, overall NC-17
Word Count: ~4700
Warnings: AU, general insane plot bunny that got out of its cage when it’s highly likely that it shouldn’t have. Warning for violence.
Disclaimer: No, I don’t own them. If anyone who does own them finds me witty enough to give them to me though, I won’t object!
Summary: When you’re messing with quantum mechanics and looping in time, you never can be sure how many times you’ve tried to correct the same mess. Because it is a time loop, because only a select one or two carry the memories, maybe the events of “Once in a Lifetime” were just one loop. This story is one time where Henry got it just right for himself and Jack, Nathan and Allison didn’t manage to stop Henry when they sent someone back, causing the next loop, the events of episode 112, “Once in a Lifetime”. But those events don’t matter now. Because this is the story of the loop before. And while in quantum mechanics, it didn’t actually happen, in the heart it did actually happen.
