beccastareyesPick five, or ten, or more, of your fic titles. List them in your journal and explain how you came up with each one. Post this promptly as well, so that the meme spreads
Where Angels Lose Their Way -- No, this is not a Chrono Cross fanfic. It's actually Digimon, though i freely admit to taking the title from it. Two reasons -- I wanted to allude to the world-crossing element and the fanfic features evil!Hikari (or an alternate version of her) (For those not in the Digimon fandom, Hikari is usually compared to an gels because her Digimon turns into one and she has the Crest of Light).
In the Shadow of the Flames --![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zannechaos came up with this one. I needed a good title for a Celena-centric Escaflowne fic that focused a lot on her past as Dilandau and freatured a mysterious villain who ran around and was believed to be related to the Dragonslayers -- a shadow of them, if you will.
The End Is Only The Begining -- Basically this Slayers fic plays off of the idea of about half of all Zel-centrric fics that AREN'T 'How Zel became a chimera' or 'Zel-angst' end with Zel getting his cure and riding off into the sunset. Things are never that simple, and I like having Zel figure this out.
To Be Human -- Basically its another Slayers fic, that focuses on Zel's dual nature -- monstous outside and human inside. It's supposed ot ask 'What does it mean to be human?' Of course, it needs a MAJOR rewrite...
Archaiphage -- ph33r my pseudo-greek! The word should mean element-eater in bastardized Greek. If I ever get working on the thing again, it's about biowarfare, politics and magic... and features a disease that renders magic users unmagical.
Faces -- Got this from a T.S. Elliot quote used in the story.
You know, I really HATE titling stuff, unless the title jumps out at me.
