The Have-A-Day Challenge is closed!

Or, well....sort of. I know there are a few people who are ALMOST done with fics, and a few more who were having computer troubles. Since I won't be able to get the poll up until at least the wee hours of tomorrow morning, anyone who posts their entry BEFORE the poll goes up will still have their fic included. That's fair, right?

There have been some truly awesome submissions (Yay!), and I want to thank you all for writing such amazing stories. There's just so much to READ now, and I can't wait.

So, look for the poll soon, and then make sure to pimp it out to your friends. And any fic stragglers, you have a few more hours, so WRITE.

That's it for now :).

:)

The Brilliance of Breathing Sunshine (Logan/Veronica) PG13

Title: The Brilliance of Breathing Sunshine
Author:

defybrevity
Pairing/Character: Logan and Veronica
Rating: PG-13, for excessive drinking, themes concerning death and violence, and mild language
Word Count: 4,589
Summary: He teaches her how to breathe in the sun when she thinks there's only black canvas stretched across the sky. Post-finale, AU.
Spoilers/Warnings Strong season two finale warning.
A/N: This was written for the

vm_have_a_day challenge, which, I admit, was due yesterday, but I had trouble posting it. Sorry for taking an extra day! My prompt is given at the end of the fic. There's also a few things I'd like to note. Mainly, I'd like to say that there's an obvious AU twist that you'll see from the beginning, which is that Keith was on the plane. There are a few other changes, but I won't give those away. I'd really love feedback, because I'm not sure about the outcome of this. I'd love to hear what you think. Enjoy! X-posted to

veronicamarsfic.

("He almost cries, because her voice is so hopeful, and what she wants is so impossible.")

FIC: Going Out (Casey/Veronica0 PG13

TITLE: Going Out
AUTHOR:

herowlness
CHARACTER/PAIRING: Casey/Veronica, Veronica POV, Wallace mentions
RATING: PG-13
WORD COUNT: 3,125
SPOILERS: Diverges from canon after 122, with random references to 109
SUMMARY: Sequel to Going Greek, but you don't really need to read that one to understand this one. But, following the end of that story, Veronica is going out on her first date with Casey.
DISCLAIMER: Rob Thomas owns them. Although I'd jump at the chance to even rent Casey for a few hours ....
GENERAL NOTES: Written for

vm_have_a_day challenge written by the totally awesome

sarah_p. Challenge prompt is at the end of the fic. Concrit is always appreciated, and all mistakes herein are mine as I was too slow to write, and I don't like trying to rush a beta in 20 minutes.

Out of the Shadows (Veronica, Mac); PG

Title: Out of the Shadows
Author: filwdork
Pairing/Character: Veronica, Mac
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1110
Summary: “Way to go Veronica, jump at your own shadow. Maybe you do need more sleep. And now you are talking to yourself. Sure sign of craziness.”
Spoilers: S1 and S2
Author's Notes: For the

vm_have_a_day challenge, "Have a day afraid of your own shadow". This is unbeated and kind of a rough idea I had. So, I hope it's not too crappy.

</span>“Mmmmm, sweet, sweet coffee. Nectar of the gods!” Veronica cradled her steaming cup of coffee and inhaled the aroma. “Delicious!”
