Okay, I need a little inspiration, writing-wise. Sort of a kick in the ass to get me working harder on the rewrite of DMIDS.

You know those newspaper contests where you guess the Oscar winners, and you get movie tickets for a year? Well, with this contest, you get the most winners right, and I write you a fanfic of your choice. (There can be more than one winner.) My fandoms, for anyone out of the loop, are Buffy, Angel (by association), Smallville (I know enough to get by), Highlander, Terminator, X-Men, The O.C., Charmed, Jake 2.0, and I'm pretty sure I could BS my way through a short LOTR or Harry Potter fic if I tried.
