Fic quote

Hi everybody, could anyone please help me out...

Does anyone else from this board post fics on FanLib? (I mean except for Distracted I know that already) A filk that I posted on FanLib got featured so now I get a t-shirt and I'm supposed to pick a quote from a fic to put on the shirt (with the author's screen name). And I assume it's supposed to be a fic from FanLib. And well as I've mentioned probably like a million times before I'm dyslexic so unfurtunately I really haven't read that many fics Sad especially out of those posted on FanLib because I've read more fics here and on Trip/T'Polers that aren't posted there. Well I know I've read a few of Distracted's and I think I read like a couple of Drogna's like a while back (way before FanLib)

So if anyone posts their fics there or has read any of the fics posted there I'd really appreciate it if you could recommend a quote for me (or like an approximate quote and where I could find it)... something that's either like really powerful or really funny Razz (preferably from a TnT fic because they're my favorite...) oh yeah and PLEASE feel free to be vain Very Happy since I'm probably not gonna quote any of my fics because I'm really not a good writer Confused if I had to pick a quote from any of my fics though it'd probably be the "Tucker, you sonovahazmot!!!" line because it's probably like the only one that even comes close to t-shirt worthy Confused because my only other prose fic is "Family, Take 2" which really isn't funny or powerful it's just fluffy, and I'm not gonna walk around wearing a fluffy quote Confused and all the others are filks and I don't think quoting a filk would work well. So yeah I seriously need help Confused because otherwise I'll end up with "Tucker you sonovahazmot" on my shirt. Confused Razz

You can use this one from "Boy Meets Girl" if you want to.

"and then, of course, it followed that the Vulcan noticed that the engineer was actually male. That’s when things got interesting." Very Happy

I love you, T'Pol, but God help me, I wish I didn't.

It has to be a quote from someone who posts here:

fanlib

If CX does, it's not under that penname.

Okay... hard choice hard choice Confused gah. I should really get back to them with an answer. And now I'm having a hard time picking. What did I get myself into Confused

P.S. CX the paragraphs in the Letter part I are all like fused together and displayed with html tags.

It won't let me fix it for some reason. It shows up normally in my edit mode. Confused

Have you tried copying it from an already formatted page (where it's displayed without the html tags)?

Yes. Still doesn't make a difference, other than no tags now.

Well I don't know. Confused I just copied your fic as it was from the page on TriS and pasted it in the editor without editing anything (except for deleting the line separator), and the preview came out just fine for me. Tried that?

That sorta fixed it. No indent now though.

Yeah well. It's too bad they don't allow html coding. That's also why I couldn't put the picture in my "Family, Take 2" fic like it's supposed to be Confused
