* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Okay. I can no longer accept or live with my shameful zero points, so I will pipe up and say I know quote #1! "The Agent and the Admiral!" I was just thinking about that story the other day.
All right, please move along, nothing to see here.
*goes back to reading and trying to catch up!*

Woo-hoo! I'm ahead of schedule on this one!!! And I'm feeling reeeeeeeaaaaaaaalll good about this one. /knocks on wood/ * * * * * S P O I L E R * * * S P A C E * * * * * I'm listening to "Ready for War" on repeat while taking this quiz. The *instrumental* version, before you ask, because it's 50 Cent and he can get dirty... But it's the perfect pump up song, so I just thought I'd share. And *now* I'm past the spoiler space. Quotes:#1: "The Agent and the Admiral" by Artemis. #2: Ooh. This was the Desperate Housewives crossover, "Soul Mates" by scifijoan. #3: IDK #4: #8: "Little Boy Blue" by Lynn SM #9: Three different Lois with guns stories? Wherein the guns aren't actually Clark? No idea. #10:

B E S T A L T E R N A T E U N I V E R S E --- E L S E W O R L D --- N E X T G E N S T O R Y From quotes: 1 "The Agent and Admiral," by Artemis 2 ? 3 "Mr. and Mrs. Kent," by MozartMaid? 4 "The Last Son of El" by Deadly Chakram? 5 Dan as a movie star? Ewww. Haven't read this one. 6 Sounds familiar, but I can't place it. 7 "And Then There Was Light," by Anti-Kryptonite? 8 Ah. At least...One I know. It's my "Little Boy Blue" 9 If I keep guessing "Mr. and Mrs. Kent," by MozartMaid, will I get it right eventually? 10 Diana? That sounds like Terry Leatherwood's, "The Wonders of Love" From the excerpts: 1. No change. 2 ? Sounds like a fun story. 3 I feel a bit more sure about my guess of "Mr. and Mrs Kent," by MozartMaid. 4. No change. 5. ? 6. Still no joy 7. <face palm> Of course! "Trusting Me Trusting You," by Female Hawk 8. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 9. No change 10 No change Thanks for another fun game. Now it's off to work. Joy, Lynn

I actually got one more point than Anti-K on this quiz?! I didn't know that was possible. I'd also like to recommend: Female Hawks' "Trusting Me, Trusting You" (Duh!) Deadly Chakram's "Clarkus Maximus" (now I know where that Chakram came from ) Thanks for quiz, Michael.
