I wrote an extremely silly fic for Highlander: The Raven. And it's short, at only 2,078 words.

Characters: Amanda, Lucy, Cassandra, Nick (although Nick has no speaking lines, he is very vocal)
I got knocked out by some illness going around, which was absolutely awful in a whole bunch of ways. So one of the ways I forced time to pass was by writing the most ludicrous thing I could think of, which involved Nick turning into his spirit animal, and then I roped Cassandra of the inexplicable wolfishness into my rationale, and Nick the small, angry terrier was born. It made sense at the time.
I also realized it was the best opportunity for me to utilize the silly "no beta" tag that often makes me smile. I almost never have a beta, but I find that tag unusable because it contradicts the tone I'm going for. Not so much here. Then I almost skipped it anyway because all I could think of was "we die like Claudia," which wasn't a fitting joke, but then I remembered Amanda's hair and it turned into a pun so bad I had to use it. Which sums up this entire creative process.
