"Due to a bit of confusion over the past week, I am back again--in Velox's blog this time--to present you with your challenge for the next two weeks," says Nuile. "The theme this time around is:"
"The reestablishment of cordial relations; getting two things to correspond; represent it in whatever way you wish."
"Pick a nice song with the Short Story you wrote, or vice versa. In whatever order, just write your songfic."
"'But wait,' you might ask, 'What if I want to write an Epic chapter?' In that case, I'll let you tweak the challenge a bit: make one of your characters sing. That's feasible; people sing all the time. So pick a song that fits your character and/or the circumstances. You may modify it as needed to fit, for example I'm in Love with an Ostrich would have to be I'm in Love with a Nivawk in BIONICLE fanfiction, though I do not suggest you use that particular song.
Replete adj. Abundantly supplied; abounding: a stream replete with trout; a cave replete with gold.
Capricious adj. Characterized by or subject to whim; impulsive and unpredictable.
Lay and Lie are frequently confused. Lay is a transitive verb and takes an object. Lay and its principal parts (laid, laying) are correctly used in the following examples: He laid (not lay) the newspaper on the table. The table was laid for four. Lie is an intransitive verb and does not take an object. Lie and its principal parts (lay, lain, lying) are correctly used in the following examples: She often lies (not lays) down after lunch. When I lay (not laid) down, I fell asleep. The rubbish had lain (not laid) there a week. I was lying (not laying) in bed when he called. There are a few exceptions to these rules. The phrasal verb lay for and the nautical use of lay, as in lay at anchor, though intransitive, are well established.
Note that you may use any definition or parts of a given word, but only in the category given. For example, the word is the verb run; you may use it in past, present or future tense, you may use any defenition of the verb, but you may not use run as a noun, adjective, etc.
