Topic: First Line Challenge
I was dying for a challenege (I also wanted the great give-and-take that comes with a challenge) but I couldn't find any recent ones. So I started this one!

It's a first line challenege. Pick one of the lines below and run with it. Or throw out some creative lines of your own. Let the forum know when your story's up.

Have fun! :)

- McKay was... unusual... as a child.

- He knew blue Jello, and blue Jello couldn't do that.

- If they ever got out of this, he vowed to make it up to her.

- Rock, paper, scissors was a hard game.

- Beckett was immune.

- Sheppard hated baseball.

- The rabbits were ravenous.

First I have to say that this is a very good idea and I love some of these lines. Especially He knew blue Jello, and blue Jello couldn't do that from LinziDay.

I started to write some short lines to this. The product is a disturbing little Stargate Atlantis fanfiction with John/Elizabeth. I hope you like it LinziDay. :)

Sorry to bother people with questions, but can we use OCs?

No bother! And sure, OCs are fine.
