Like I said in my most recent post, my snippets doc is over 4k (closer to 5) of slices of dialogue and one paragraph fics. I keep on making mental vows to not start any more fics until I use those up, and then I keep on getting bunnied by things I can't use snippets for. Mikey being trans =/=
He goes walking. Every time he’s in a crowd he can’t help but wonder how many are mutant and of them how many are known and have people that love them anyway. Kelly’s bill was outrageous, even he thought so in the end and backed off, but sometimes Patrick wonders if he had a point. Not because he wants to persecute them. More because if you are a minority you should be vocal and agressive about it. Like the Stonewall Riots back in the day. Patrick knows from Kitty that there’s a group of mutants fighting for their rights, called the Brotherhood, they have sneaky tactics and some of her teachers fighht them. Patrick thinks they probably have the right of it.
I ended up getting the point across without using that, but I still like the phrasing so I don't want to delete it permanently. So it languishes, until the next time I feel like writing a bandom/xmen crossover. Which, if I'm being honest, is this exact instant. But then I want to write ALL THE THINGS RIGHT RIGHT NOW, so that feeling doesn't really count. And it's hard to make the things you're currently writing use snippets that are clearly their own fic.
...that was a very long reply. Sorry. I get rambly.
