A meme!
I've been enjoying reading this on other ljs, and was tempted beyond resistance. Particularly because my brain is full of drugs for my foot. Which seems ridiculous, since they are at opposing ends.
"Post a single sentence from each WIP you have (or as many as you want to pick). No context, no explanations. No more than one sentence!"
1. “If Mr Malfoy would care to inform us which of his family’s priceless collection of Dark Artefacts was stolen this morning, I will explain who the thief is and why we should all be deeply worried.”
2. They call us their technical advantage, no one uses the M word, except the children.
3. 'Merlin, Potter, just because I’m an idiot, you’re meant to be a role model who’s above this sort of nonsense.’
4. Hermione pulled a bottle of ginger beer from her bag with a flourish, and declared, ‘After lunch, puppies!’
5. They found Lucius on Via Tornabuoni, sitting outside Palazzo Strozzi, chatting merrily in Italian.
6. “You can’t know what it’s like, though, to come out of that world of tedium and grind, and to be shown something so beautiful, and then to have it broken apart around you.”
7. So as I write, I picture you, friendly, kind, concerned about the hand that scrawled these cramped notes on second-rate parchment.
8. You’re a lovely girl, Granger, you deserve better than a ginger.
9. “It is quite possible that Ron will kill me if I don’t put you out of your misery, so I am going to say yes.”
ETA: Oh god, I forgot one!
10. ‘And continue to do exactly what the aristocracy tell them to, bless their tabloid hearts.’
I think it may be time to add No-Doze to the drug cocktail, since I may never sleep again ...

I think that it should all be taken as proof that I have been working on the sundry things I am meant to be working on. Although the puppy one can be safely left on the backburner for a while ;-)
There's actually one more that needs to be whipped up for a birthday, but I only have the outline, no actual lines. And I like your cap, foot idea!

One other is on hiatus and two others are discontinued: one, because I lost interest in that fandom, and the second because it wasn't going anywhere, I just started it on a whim for a prompt community. But at least there are only three like that.
Hm. If I tried to post a line from each fic I once started and didn't get to finish... let's just say I'd need to put it under an lj-cut. :P
