In the great tradition of JRR Tolkien and the Hobbits...

The Hobbits in Lord of the Rings had at least one custom that I have every intention of keeping up, at least today. On their birthdays, they would give other people gifts, rather than getting them themselves, and I rather like this idea, and can't see that it would hurt anything.

I was originally going to say that the first seventeen people who comment will get a drabble in reply to their comment, as I turn seventeen today, but I decided that hey, why not let everyone who has friended me get something? We can pretend that this entry is the party, and everyone who has me friended came and can get a present. Or something. *g* But as I don't want to be inundated with requests from people I have no idea existed, please only the people who have friended me (not just the people I've friended), and I will endeavor to get a drabble to you soon (meaning, within a week). I'm still writing things for some of you, but those are long and somewhat involved, and something shorter would be nice.

So, request anything you like, in a variety of fandoms. I can write in Harry Potter, Good Omens, possibly Discworld, Final Fantasy IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, and X-2, Legend of Zelda (Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, Link's Awakening, Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages), Fushigi Yugi, Rurouni Kenshin, Slayers, Escaflowne, Magic Knight Rayearth, Tamora Pierce (Circle of Magic and Tortall), and...a lot more. Ask me if you're not sure if I know a specific fandom. My only request is that if it's Harry Potter (like most will be, I assume), then you not request Remus/Snape or James/Sirius. There are no forbidden pairings in other fandoms, though if you want to know my preferences, feel free to ask.

All you have to do is reply to this post with a fandom and a prompt, which can be shippy or gen. You can ask me for a target rating, only keep in mind that I may not get to that rating. I will then write a drabble, which may possibly turn into something longer, knowing me, and give it to you in a reply to your original comment. So people might want to keep checking back, even if I've already wrote yours, just to see other people's if you like.

Well...let the requests begin!

Ooooh! You rock! Well, if you haven't been totally swamped as yet, a short little Harry/Ron would be lovely! But only if you haven't been swamped!

*huggles* and Happy Birthday. I shall write you an Epic Poem!!!

I don't need a drabble, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY! <3

Happy Birthday, Rynne dear!

And I think you are making a great hobbit at the moment - the present idea is great.

I'd just like to read what everyone else is getting, but I wouldn't say no to any Discworld Drabbles. Particularly if they star Death and/or the wizards.

"You sure we can't just pretend that this knife never entered my stomach?"

NO.

The man persisted. "Aw, come on. Surely you're tired of all this death surrounding you by now, aren't you?"

...I AM DEATH. IT'S MY JOB.

"Oh, I know that," the man said quickly. "But you know, it must get tiring...have you ever shirked before? It's a wonderfully freeing thing."

I'M SURE IT IS. THAT DOESN'T CHANGE THAT YOU'RE DEAD, THOUGH.

"Aw, come on!" the man protested. "I'm just one person, you know..."

THAT DOESN'T MATTER. YOU'RE DEAD AND THAT'S THAT.

Later, after the man had finally gone, Death put his head in his bony hands. I HATE MY JOB, he grumbled.

Firstly...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Secondly...While I was surprised to find someone honoring the Hobbit tradition, I was a little reserved at first when it came to asking for a request. However, as it is both your birthday, and your wish, I humbly request R/J/S ;p

Eeee, this idea makes me gleeful. Hooray for hobbits. ^^ (And I will totally have to do this on my birthday, too.)

As for request, possibly Discworld sounds wonderful, though something Good Omens is perfectly acceptable too and if you really don't want to write either of those, then I certainly won't say no to some Remus/Sirius. ^^ But please don't do all three, because there are already an inordinate amount of people requesting things, and I don't want to bog you down.

...And, of course, happy birthday! And thanks again. ^^

HAPPY 17th BIRTHDAY!!!! (You're older than me by about two months)

Since I am inherently greedy *not sure whether or not I'm kidding (^_^)* I would like to request either a Remus/Sirius OR an Aziraphael/Crowley. You can pick whichever pairing you think would go best with the prompt. It's my senior quote (shh, don't tell anyone at my school! No one's stealing it!!! I will seem at least semi-original in the yearbook!):

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Happy birthday, sweetie!

You have so many drabble requests! Hmm... Well, if you get a bit bored of HP, how about some RK? Something about Aoshi taking note of the fact that Misao is growing up... :)

Duuuuude. Rock!

I hereby challenge you to write REMUS HET! *snicker/flee*

Happy birthday, Rynne!

and if you don't already feel weighed down by a bizillion requests -- Harry/Zacharias? :D

Anyway, I hope your birthday is lovely!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOOT!

(And well if you're taking requests...I could certainly deal with some Aziraphale/Crowley...)

Oh I'm so sorry; I saw your post last night just as I was getting to bed and didn't have time to wish you a happy birthday...

Still, Happy Birthday!
