Sunday Memeage

Oh, because I don't already spend enough time on lj talking about how clever I think I am:

Meme robbed from lindenharp:

Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

That's a very comprehensive commentary!

I don't think I've ever seen such cop shows directly, but I'm familiar with them through parodies, homages, Life on Mars and the like.

because, well, it's the kind of thing that happens when you're writing fic, isn't it?

As far as my fic's concerned, it's practically a law of nature.

I try to be comprehensive. Some people might say long-winded, but... ;D

As you point out, the idea of parodying 70s-early 80s cop shows isn't exactly ground-breaking, cutting edge comedy, but it amused me.
