Oh good! Another quiz! Let's see how well I do with this one. From the quotes: 1 ? 2 ? 3 The Man Under the Suit, by HappyGirl 4 I should know this one. 5 This doesn't sound familiar. 6 ? 7 ? 8 ? 9 Backwards III: House of Lane, by Carol M.? 10 ? Pretty pathetic so far. Let's see if I do any better with the excerpts. From the excerpts (only changed answers listed): 4 Got it! Treasure Chest by Female Hawk 6 FBI should be a giveaway. I think this was All the Daytime and the Nighttime by Artemis 7 Wine and Circumstances, by MozartMaid. I should have guessed this from the quote, but I had thought that that story was too short for this category. I just checked its length and realized my error. Hmmm... I think I have just fallen further behind in this competition. Ah, well. It was a fun quiz anyway. Thanks for making it, Michael. Joy, Lynn

OK, can't think of much to write here... let the admission of my terrible memory begin (again)! B E S T R E L A T I O N S H I P ( O V E R 5 0 K ) Quote #1: Oh, um, Nowhere to Run by ML Thompson? Quote #2: Treasure Chest by Female Hawk? Quote #3: I think it's The Man Under the Suit by HappyGirl. Quote #4: Oh, maybe this one's Treasure Chest. So... there's two like this?! Quote #5: I'm not sure if I've read this one or not. Quote #6: All the Daytime and the Nighttime by Artemis (I may have slightly got the title wrong, apologies, I think it's written wrong on my Kerth list.) Quote #7: Oh, look, this one's *familiar* (seriously, after the last quiz I will count up how many times I've used that word!) Quote #8: The f-word. Quote #9: ? Quote #10: And... familiar. Excerpt #2: Well, I don't think this is Treasure Chest any more, I think the other one is. I don't know what this one is! Excerpt #4: I'll stick with Treasure Chest for this one. Excerpt #5: Oh, I totally have read this. I think it's That One Great Love by Terry Leatherwood. Excerpt #7: OK, I know this one. I do. I know it. But I can't remember which one it is, so looking at the titles... Wine and Circumstance by mozartmaid. Excerpt #8: ? Excerpt #9: ? Excerpt #10: ? Well, that was fun. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to try and magic a wonderful ficathon story out of thin air!

Sneaky, me. I snuck in at the buzzer and scored! Now to see how I do in the relationship department. I hope it isn't a federal disaster. B E S T R E L A T I O N S H I P ( O V E R 5 0 K ) Quotes: 1. "Nowhere to Run" - ML Thompson 2. Er... Female Hawk's, "Treasure Chest"? 3. HG's "Man Under the Suit" 4. Uh oh. This is Female Hawk's, "Treasure Chest". So what was #2? 5. ? 6. Artemis' "Daytime and the Nighttime" 7. Sounds familiar, but...? 8. ? 9. I read this one, but can't recall where. 10. Ack! I read this one, too. I'm going to kick myself when I remember... Excerpts: 2. Ah, this is Raconteur's "Long Road Home" 5. Double Ack!! I definitely read this one. Let me see if I can remember... Sounds like something Terry would write. Checking the list... Yep, it's Terry Leatherwood's "One Great Love." 7. Yes, I know this one! "Wine and Circumstance" by Mozart Maid 8. <sigh> still nothing. Maybe I missed this one. 9. Oh, right. This is Sue S.'s "Flying Lessons". :rolleyes: 10. Aha! Squid's, "My Inspiration". Well, it'll be interesting to see how my memory is for this category. B

This would be embarrassing if I didn't do it! So here goes, amidst much swearing at my laptop keyboard. T H E T O U G H E S T T H I N G T O D O I S T H E S P O I L E R S P A C E Best Relationship Quote #1: Nowhere to Run –ML ThompsonQuote #2: close, but not sure Quote #3: She knew Kent’s reputation as a ladies’ man, and she had no intention of giving him the wrong impression about her agenda for the evening. Lois Lane was all business, and he’d better believe it. One of two possible stories, but which one? Quote #4: Treasure Chest - Female HawkQuote #5: Would it be right to think about Lois when Rachel's memory still haunted me? Nope. Don't have a clue. Quote #6: Admiral Lane, who he was now presuming was Lois' father, was the head of the combined FBI-NIA-Homeland Security task force headquartered in Metropolis, New Troy. His boss, three levels up. Woot! Woot! - All the Daytime and the Nighttime by Artemis Thanks for the mention! Quote #7: "Kryptonite or not, *wine* or not, you lied to Lois and married her! Clark! I can't believe you did that!" Close, but not there. Quote #8: "This is your fault, Mayson. I never would have let him know how I felt if you hadn't come along," she muttered under her breath. Nope Quote #9: "You can't save everyone." Clark takes my hand in his and squeezes it gently. "No matter how fast you are, sometimes you still won't be able to help them." Almost there. Quote #10: "Is it true, Lois? Are you a home wrecker?" Too short to jog the memory. Excerpt #2: The Long Road Home by RacExcerpt #3 The Man Under the Suit by Happy Girl Excerpt #5: Still no Excerpt #7: Wine & Circumstances by MozartmaidExcerpt #8: I know it but I can't find it. Excerpt #9 Flying Lessons –Sue S.Excerpt #10: My Inspiration by SQD Artemis

Okay, I didn’t do so well but WOW! what an ansgsty set of questions for the “Best Relationship” quiz. To me it feels like more than half of these belong in the “Best Broken Relationship” quiz.
