Five Things Peter Pan Forgot, for
lillieoz.
1) His father. His mother he had picture-book pages in his head for, but that was because girls were all right. Mothers let you do silly things. Fathers tell you to grow up. He was not going to grow up, never never never. Peter swore this for-ever and ever every morning, mostly because
2) he forgot he'd done it the morning before.
3) Why there was a ring in his pocket. He never knew what it was for, so he gave it a different story every time he realised it was there. It was a pretty little gold circle that was too big for his finger, and on Tuesdays it was often stolen from the pirates' treasure hoard, and on other days the mermaids gave it to him for rescuing them from sharks, or perhaps squids, or perhaps horrid nameless monsters, or perhaps the Indians, who sometimes mistook them for fish.
4) He always forgot that he had so much pixie dust on him already that when he moved too quick it fell off like dry sand brushed from your legs. He thought he could fly because he was more important than anyone else (which of course he was), and never thanked poor Tink, who had poured it on him in the beginning until he couldn't have another dose without floating up like a balloon.
5) In the end, he forgot Jane. Jane wasn't very good at cleaning, and had a bad memory for stories, so he started looking for other mothers. Helen had lots of stories and kept a cleaning towel tucked in one pocket in case he took her away unexpectedly, which he often did, for he had very little consideration. Helen was a splendid mother, far better than Jane--but of course he never thought that way, because he had forgotten Jane entirely.

Five Cheesy Shakespearean Pick-up Lines, also for
lillieoz.
1) "Gentle sir, hast thou thy bodkin in thy hose, or say that thou art but glad to see me this many a day?" <---obviously Titania to Bottom.
2) "Thinkst thou that thou art sad and like to die? Why, then, thou canst die with me; 'twill be a merry death." <---clearly Hamlet to an unsuspecting bystander; say Horatio.
3) "Fear not, sweet Hermia, for though thou art short, yet I am long." <---we hope this is Lysander; if it's Demetrius, he's going to get smacked.
4) "Lady, beneath what star wast thou born?" <---Prospero. You pick the girl.
5) "I have got a bastard with you--now, with you, let me get a bastard." <---Regan to Edmund. >_>

I have to say that considering that I'm being confirmed to-morrow this all seems a little likely to put my immortal soul in danger. :D
Manon and Nanni, I am still working on your thingies!
