Random-Draw Meme

I've tipped into a manic phase right now, which means I can't concentrate for beans on long stuff. But I can do LOTS of memes! :D

Pick one or two or three numbers from one to twenty. Give me a prompt. Get a beer because it might be a while before I answer. :D

You will note the lack of letters. This is because I don't feel like doing AUs in this one. Or at least not being limited in which AU I write. Maybe the next one.

MEME IS CLOSED.

2 and 14.

The Prompts? How 'bout some song lyrics? :D

I follow the night
Can't stand the light
When will I begin
To live again?


Men grow cold as girls grow old,
And we all lose our charms in the end.


'Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl


Some for you to choose from.
And yes, if you've noticed, all from Moulin Rouge.

Ursa and Jin - when will I begin/to live again?

Jin went down to the Miss Ursa's shop to buy herself something sweet. The confectioner never opened before noon and never closed before midnight. When Jin had asked her about it once, the war-lady had smiled and said she wanted to be sure to miss the dawn.

"Hi," Jin said tiredly as she pushed the door open. A brass bell jingled, and Miss Ursa looked up from the batter she was pouring onto a marble countertop.

"Hello, Jin. Did you have a good day?"

She liked Miss Ursa's voice. It reminded her of her mother. It reminded Daddy of her mother, too, which was why he always sent one of them to get things rather than come himself.

"Sort of," she said, inhaling the scent of all the delicious candy and wandering over to peer at the pralines. "I had a date."

"Was he handsome?" Miss Ursa asked with a smile.

"Not like most people would think," Jin said, smiling a little herself. "He's a war-child with gold, gold eyes. One side of his face is covered in this horrible burn scar-"

Crockery crashed, and Miss Ursa cursed. Jin jerked around to see the confectioner picking up her fallen bowl, batter splattered everywhere.
