Sell Us on the First Sentence!

Some new ones.

PMMM: Sayaka Miki's ghost has begun to stalk you, and you're not sure how to react. http://archiveofourown.org/works/2761424

Sailor Moon: "My lady.... I have won. I have killed Sailor Moon and obtained her Sailor Crystal." http://archiveofourown.org/works/2642081

"Remnant. Throughout thousands of years of history, hands of millions of poets wrote poems praising its beauty." - Under the Ashen Sky

The opening sentence for the rewrite of the chapter:

"Cold dread and heavy fatigue of another day swept across Schiefer's skin and bones."

I'm not sure if this sounds a bit too...I don't know, dour?

"Despite the shining sun, the air was unnaturally chilly. " -The Ice Queen

It's lame, I know, but still...

And now, for one I might write.

"The world's stupidest criminal broke into my house yesterday." (I Am The Messenger/APH....)

" Gogo called it "intuition," Wasabi called it "luck," Honey Lemon called it "big brother instinct", and Fred called it "A real-life super-power." Tadashi Hamada called it "ten years of experience." And "access to tracking devices." "

My Big Hero 6 fic, The Only Pay-off

I'm rather proud of it.

Okay....

1. If there is one thing I have discovered in the past three weeks, it's that I suck at being a father. (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2820158/chapters/6326606)

2. Ichinose? Ichinose, do you understand your goals?" (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2813045/chapters/6311507)

3. As expected, Sakura Kinomoto has been showing up quite a bit in your dreams lately. (http://archiveofourown.org/works/2828606)

4. This entire world is a lie. We are all puppets dancing on the strings of an unknown master.(http://archiveofourown.org/works/2833991)

From the amazing fanfic "Stormborn" by black.k.kat (No seriously, it's quite beautiful and the writing is just woah) There's a voice in Naruto's head, tucked in behind his thoughts, and it's always been there. From a One Piece fanfic, "Things thought lost" by Reyna of Rayne (?) He couldn't hear, couldn't think, couldn't move, couldn't think.

It's an old fic that I can't find the link to it anymore, but I think the introduction went like:

"So a freelancer, a janitor, a graduate student, and a serial killer walks into a building..."

Quest For Glory-

"It was not often these days that you could hear arguing from the Donnelly household, but tonight, that proved to be false." https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11476222/1/Quest-for-Glory-The-Three-Heroes

The first sentence to my Legend of Zelda fanfic: Zelda's Honor (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10082472/1/Zelda-s-Honor) is a bit underwhelming: 'Whispers, whispers....'

So...here's the second sentence which is more like a real one: 'The youthful man ignored the voices emanating from the one thing he dreaded carrying.'

My second fanfic is for Final Fantasy VII and its not complete like the first, only up to chapter 5. Fate Deceived is the title: (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11501485/1/FFVIII-Fate-Deceived) 'The soft buzzing of the alarm penetrated her senses as sleep began to dissipate from her mind.'

I appear to like starting with dialogue.

"Zekes really coming?" A Feddie Story

"Stop the truck!" Night Life

It was the day he turned seventeen. Life After Hayate

"It's never really over." Une said softly. Wings To Fly

God set down His bowl of beef jerky and arose from His throne as His latest visitor kicked open the doors to His throne room.

- an as yet unpublished fic of mine.

My first sentence stinks!

"Pikachu was getting frustrated."

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11453893/1/The-Power-That-s-Inside

Pika pika, pi-pi-pika pikachu!

[Translated] What is Pikachu frustrated with, exactly?

Hahaha. Exactly - that's why it's a bad first sentence.
