2 Memes

The return of the story title meme - You give me a potential story title in the comments and I tell you what that story is about. Last year's were kind of interesting, especially since the answer I gave to Missy was the total and honest truth because that was going to be the title of the rest of Val's story in the West Wing AU.

Icon meme - Reply to this post, and I will tell you my favorite icon of yours. Then post this to your own journal using your own favorite icon, if you feel like it. Mostly because this is totally just an excuse for me to wander round other people's icons and look at the shiny and cool things.

I doubt anything is ever going to displace this as my favourite icon. Thanks Fileg.

Despite Sylvan being the main character, Rob Conway is actually the POV character. He's pretty much constantly amazed when he travels with Sylvan because he's still impossibly snooty and drives through Oklahoma like a man possessed, but tries to spend as much time in Kansas as he can get away with, despite what he says during promos, because, and this is where Rob's amusment grows, Sylvan has a huge love and appetite for apple fritters.

They're in one particular diner, and Sylvan being Sylvan and their gimmick being what it was, they're in the middle of an insult-fest with some truckers, when Edna Mae, owner of said truck-stop, comes out with a plate heaped high with apple fritters, and clutches him to her busom and declaims him to be her favourite customer. That's the point where Rob falls off his chair with laughter.

Some author's notes: My google-fu failed me when it came to finding out any typically Oklahoman foods, so if there's any you'd care to recommend, I'm all ears.
