Talking of resurrecting old challenges.... I remember how much fun we all had some years ago now with a challenge to condense our fanfic into as few words as possible. The results back then were archived at Annesplace and were even given their own category in the first Alt Kerths. You can find some examples, plus the full history of the challenge here It just occured to me, reading over Jana's new challenge thread, that with so many new authors since and so many new stories too it might be fun to visit this one again. So, basically: Take one of your own stories already finished and posted (IOW no WIPs or another author's story) and squeeze the plot into as few words as you can manage. As any responses to this challenge will be very short by their nature just post them here in this thread. Comments can go in here too, rather than starting new threads. SPOILER WARNING! As many of these RDs will undoubtedly contain spoilers for the plot of the actual story, do take note of that before you read further in this thread, if you don't want to have your enjoyment of a story you haven't yet caught up with spoiled. I'll post after this so that there's ample space to stop accidental spoilage. Think that's it. If I've missed anything out or you're still confused - just hollar! LabRat (and no, I ain't touching Masques with a bargepole...  )

Let's try... THE PARENT TRAP Long Version here Spanish version here Ellie and Lara had swapped their places at the camp. When the first one met her father at the airport, she said, "Hello, I'm Ellen Lane, you other daughter." In Metropolis airport, Lara saw Lois Lane and told her "I'm Lara Kent. Ellie's twin." Some days later, "Hello, Lois," Clark said. "It's good to see you, Clark," she replied. "Will you marry me?" Clark asked. "Yes." The End

Interesting. Hmm, now I have to read my story to see what happened LOL. The South Side Chronicles: Witness The Full-Length Story Lois: Hey, Clark, what if the Cost-Marts really aren't involved as much as we think they are? What if something else is going on? *~*~*~*~* Lois: So, who would have the most to gain by bombing the Mayors' conference? Lois: Do you really think it's a coincidence that the bomb went off *during* the South Side discussion? *~*~*~*~* Lois: I want you to find everything you can on...on...Sara Carter. Where she works, who she lives with. I want to know what she eats for breakfast. Jimmy: First of all, there is no Sara Carter. Lois: I knew it! Clark: You did not. *~*~*~*~* Asabi: I trust you have seen this morning's paper? Luthor: Yes. That doesn't bother me, though. Luthor: *No one* stands in my way." To heck with writing full-length stories! Jen

(much in the manner of Sideshow Bob) Lois: Sod off, you total git. I'm outta here. Clark: I found you! Lois: You found me! Lois and Clark: <smooch smooch> Clark: Who knows I'm Superman?!? Alex: Half of Metropolis. Why, is that a problem? Daily Planet Headline: Frozen popsicle in shape of Lex Luthor found dangling from cliff. Lois and Clark: I do! <smooch> Alex and Eve: I do! <smooch smooch> The End. LabRat

Okay, I thought I'd try this with Love Remains too. Real Version  Jimmy: I'm sorry about Clark. Lois: I don't believe Clark is dead. thinking I never told him that I love him. Perry: Honey, you'll have to face it sooner or later. --- Lois: I don't believe that Clark is dead. Am I crazy? Wolf: You should never let go of the bond you have with your partner. --- Lois: Clark, you're alive! They hug. Clark: Superman saved me. I didn't die. Lois: I knew it! Thinking I'm still not ready to tell you I love you though. the end

Oooh, I remember these! Here's A Certain Point of View : Alt-Lana: You know, everyone always thinks that *I'm* the nasty villainess of Tempus, Anyone? But if you take a moment to look at the events of the ep from a different point of view, you'll realize that it was all HER fault. So there. And her dress sense was awful, too. 
Lois: You know the deal.
Clark: Superman gets the guys in capes, Lois and Clark get the guys in suits.

Clark: Let's go get dinner, Lois. Lois: I feel so drawn to you... (they sleep together) Lois: What the hell was I thinking? Get out Clark, and I never want to see you again! <knock, knock> HG: Let me erase your memories! Lois & Clark: No, thanks. Now bugger off! HG: Hmpf! No more deux in this machina for you! Lois: Whatever, you mental case. Hey, Clark, let's be friends! *** PJ

This is too much fun Here's Hearts Divided : Lt. Lane: I'm in the army and I'm going undercover at the Metro Club! Kal-El (seeing Lois sing): Hubba, hubba! Ching: Hey! You're supposed to be engaged to Zara. Shifty-eyed flunky: Hmm, let's suck up to Kal by taking her with us. Lois: Take us back to Earth *now*, you sexist creep. Kal: Well, I would, but I have to rescue Zara from the evil Lord Nor so I can pull one over on the council and she'll marry Ching and rule New Krypton with him and I can come back to Earth to be with you. Oh, and did I mention I have Superman's powers? Lois: Cool. <smooch> **** PJ

It almost makes you wonder why we bother writing out the longer versions! These are hilarious, though, so keep 'em coming! I particularly admire Labby's ability to distill Masques down into a few lines. PJ

These are so fun! I can't resist adding my own. Anybody's Baby Long Version Lucy: Lois, I was knocked up by a guy paid to sell his children to an evil scientist. Now I'm going to flit off to New York for a couple of months. Lois: Wait! No! I can't take care of a baby....CLARK! Clark: Oh, just what I've always wanted! A ready-made family! Let's live happily ever after! Lois: Good idea! ****** Lucy: Changed my mind - I want the baby back. Lois: No! He's ours! Lucy: mine! Lois: mine! Lucy: mine! Lucy goes back to New York and quickly discovers this is not as much fun as she'd imagine. Lucy (to Lois): Yours! And they all lived happily ever after.

For my short story, "College Tempus":
*****
Tempus: I have a new evil plan to destroy Utopia. I'll kill Lois Lane in the past before Kent ever knew her. Bwahaaa haaa.
Lois: I'm feeling really sick.
Tempus: Hey, she's not dying yet. I need to... WHOA!!!! Who's that hot lady? Elena! {Smooch}
Tempus (thinking): Lois Lane? Who's she?
Lois: I feel a lot better.

Everyone thinks I'm Superman, Lois! Lois: Oh, no, what shall we do? altClark: Fear not. I am here to help you. L&C: Gosh, thanks, altClark. Clark: Yay, no-one thinks I'm Superman any longer! altClark, disappearing back to his own dimension: Goodbyeeeeeeeee.... **** FoDII: altClark: Gosh, I'm so lonely. Clark: There, there. Cheer up, there's a good superhero! altClark: But I'm so lonely! Clark: There, there. Cheer up, there's a good superhero! altClark: But I'm so, so lonely! <sob> Clark: There, there. Everything will turn out okay in the end, you'll see. altClark: But I'm so lone- Hang on, who's that? Cue "Lady Sings The Blues" as performed by a Lois-Lane lookalike. **** FoDIII: Wanda: Don't mess with me, kiddo. I'm as hard as nails and I talk out the side of my mouth just like a gangster's moll. altClark: But...but... Luthor: Hands off, buster. altClark: But...but... Wanda: Save me from Luthor, Clark! altClark: But...but...you're... Wanda: I'm so miserable. altClark: Lois! altLois: I'm so miserable Luthor: Take that, you miserable alien, you! altClark: Ow, that hurt! Klein on his motorbike, smashing through a door: Woo-hoo! altLois: I'm so miserable altClark: I'm sick altLois: I'm still miserable altClark: I'm getting better altLois: But I'm still miserable altClark: I'm better, but miserable because Lois is miserable altLois and altClark: We're miserable Luthor, being strangled by altClark: Ow, that hurt! altClark: Take that, you miserable criminal, you! altLois: I'm less miserable now that Luthor is heading for prison altClark: I'm actually vaguely happy now that Lois isn't so miserable altLois: I'm worried, because Clark is flying us to Smallville altClark: I'm running away from my responsibilities The End I think that's enough for now!

OK, I have to give this a go: RD version of Butterfly Legacy (Long Version) ... Clark: I'm so depressed that Lois married Lex Luthor. Think I'll learn a trade. Gillian: Hey, Superman Sam. Why don't you ditch the spandex and go native for a bit? Have a few shots of chicha and hang around Colombia playing Peace Corps volunteer with me. Clark: What, Lois is a widow? See ya later, Gillian. I love ya but, after all, Lois is my soul mate. We'll always have San Pablo... The end Lynn

[Yay, my connection is finally back for the evening...  ] Okay, Epiphany : Lois: Hmmmmmmmm. Clark looked darn cute at the festival tonight, think I'll fall in love with him. Clark: Why is Lois looking at me that way? Does she want to kiss me? Clark and Lois: <smooch> <smooch> Lois and Clark: <smooch> <smooch> (As I recall there was a lot of smooching in this one) Lois: Eeek! Clark: Yikes! Martha: Clark, quit pretending you're asleep, I think everyone could hear you canoodling from town to Kansas City. Clark: Sure, Mom. Well, that was embarrassing. Okay, where were we? Clark and Lois: <smooch> <smooch> Lois: Woah! Clark! You're a...very patient man?!?!? Clark: Yes. And also Supe--- (Fade to black)
Athos: If you'd told us what you were doing, we might have been able to plan this properly.
Aramis: Yes, sorry.
Athos: No, no, by all means, let's keep things suicidal.

It sounds like fun. I´ll try it with my micro-little-tiny vignette "Happy Anniversary, Honey" posted now in Fanfic. **** He called her and said he would be late once again but, he had a special reason for that. He bought roses for her. He woke her up and said: "Happy anniversary, honey" "Oh, Perry... you shouldn´t have".

Swear to God, this time we're eloping: Lois: "Come on, let's forget this stuff in Metropolis and go to Vegas." Clark: "Okay." Medical Miracles 2: Dr. Klein: "Blah blah blah. You're able to have children." Amygdala: Clark: "Oh no, Lois has fallen and she can't get up. Oh no, I can't move either. But it will all be okay in the end." Basketball: Lois: "Owwwww! My ankle. Wait, forget about my ankle! You're Superman." "Snow" series: I love you. I'm Superman. Let's get married. - Laura

AltClark: Woohoo! This is so good!
AltLois: Watch where you're going, buddy.
AltClark: <<Woohoo! Even better! And, oh, wait, kind of bad.>>

These are all tremendous fun, but I had to comment on this one: Amygdala:
Clark: "Oh no, Lois has fallen and she can't get up. Oh no, I can't move either. But it will all be okay in the end." PJ
"You told me you weren't like other men," she said, shaking her head at him when the storm of laughter had passed.
He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement."
"You can say that again," she told him.
"I have a...."
"Oh, shut up."

Since RL is threatening to overtake my author's life, I thought I'd sneak in and play along with you guys. Btw, all of these are great! Boy, does this seem scary how little of words needed to sum up one's story. Maybe I can do this with my "Getting to Know Them" story until I find some time to finish it?  (thought I'd try) Getting to Know Me Long Version Here Short version: Lucy: Fill out this questionnaire. Lois: This is stupid but okay. While writing answers, Lois states: Oh wow, I love Clark. Lois emails it home, but oops, emails it to Clark too.

Lois: Dr. Kent, join me in some vespers, please.
Police: Why is there a nun tied up?
Perry: You can darn well rot in that jail cell tonight.
