Titles Meme and Icon Meme

estiroseBasically, this is a variant of the meme where you take ten fics and say why you titled them. I chose more or less my last ten.
Must Be This Tall
I was musing during a walk on how the morpher ended up choosing Ziggy. Of course, when your mind wanders after a very long workday, you end up with some rather odd results, like pseudo computer code that very vaguely resembles COBOL, as well as an image of those "You must be this tall" signs you see at amusement rides.
Now The City's Own
This is from a line in the story, in which the character of Maria is musing that Ziggy doesn't "belong" to her anymore, he "belongs" to the city as a Ranger.
Moving Into Awesome
My Gemma-muse is fond of the word "awesome", and she thinks it's just great that she and Gem are back with Doctor K, so they're "moving into awesome" as far as they're concerned.
Dancing at the Edge of the World
For some reason, when I think of Ziggy and Doctor K, I have him dancing around her as he changes and grows. Finally, at the end, they dance together.
Go Out and Play
Very simply, that's what Asumu's mother wishes Asumu to do, instead of trying so hard to get into pre-med in his first year of high school.
Manipulative, Handy, Useful
What would an OOOs fic be without a 3-4 word title reminiscent of the show's? In this case, it describes Ankh, Eiji, and Hina, though maybe not in that order.
Warm Spot
As I noted in the DVD commentary, I originally gave this a title that was far slashier. However, this fits the story in two ways: the warmth that Dillon gives Ziggy as a bedmate, and the warmth he gives him as a friend.
To Smile, Stealing Him Away
This refers to Angelie Robinson's plan to kidnap Ziggy from the hospital so the Rangers can't endanger (in her mind) his life. She intends to be smiling a lot when she "wanders off" with Ziggy.
Playing Keepaway
Ziggy basically keeps the morpher away from Tenaya in this brief AU fic, so you could say he's "playing keepaway".
The Call Can't Read Rap Sheets
Refers to the tropes regarding the heroic call, and the fact that Ziggy's morpher (in both this AU and in canon) seems to ignore little things like a criminal record on his end.
And here I'll go pick 4 of my icons and tell why I have them/made them.
Otoya conch (source series: Kamen Rider Kiva)
I'm not sure why I have this. I know i made it, because I like the image, but I'm not sure why it's in my icons except as a kind of "announcement" image, as it's Otoya blowing on the conch (because he's a silly, silly person sometimes) to signal an attack.
King and Queen (source series: Kamen Rider Kiva, cut scenes)
This is a shot of Taiga and Mio from one of the cut scenes. I think Taiga's getting pissy at Mio for seeing a human. This being Mio, she's showing her rare spine moments later. You'd never know that from this shot, though, which is in a rose garden. I use this a lot as a generic icon.
Omura Come Back (source series: Kamen Rider Kiva)
Omura is one of two of my favorite "Fangire of the Week". (Kuramae Noboru is the other, which I find funny because he's a creepy stalker.) I regret that Omura didn't show up in more episodes of Kiva, because he was a connection to Wataru's father, as well as Wataru could have really had someone around to talk to. Maybe that's why my AU Watarus have him live more than not. This is Omura listening to Otoya's music.
Chophead Tinybits (source series: Girl Genius)
This is from the web-and-print comic "Girl Genius", which I use for my rare "I'm pissed off" posts. The speaker is a bad guy/gal who's overdosed/been overdosed on what's meant as an energy/speed potion. What they're trying to say is, I think, "I'm going to chop you into tiny bits!" but it's more hilarious the way it was said.
