Scott Pilgrim Comicverse, Kim/Scott
Summary: What does Scott remember about Kim?
"Why don't you -- like, tell me about you and Kim, or something?" Ramona said, flopping across the bed.
"Kim?" Scott asked. "What about her?"
"You dated her."
"Oh...yeah...right..."
"Is your memory of that time period hazy, too? C'mon, inform me."
"Okay...there was this girl in my...history class...I think...and it was Kim. We had to do a thing together. She had freckles?"
"And?"
-----
She had freckles, dusting her shoulders and the top of her chest and her thighs. And it was...he had seen them before, or some of them, but he had never...they had never...god...
"Are you..." Is this... "okay?" he asked.
She nodded. "Mmhm." Her leg shifted, and it rubbed, and god.
"Okay." He should say something, shouldn't he? Or ask what she...what she wanted. He opened his mouth, but didn't have the words.
Her touch drifted across his chest, around his waist. She looked calm, but her hands were shaking. "Shh," she said, and, "Listen to this song. This is a really good song."
He listened, to the melody and the rhythm, to the sound of her breathing, to the rustle of the blanket, and he felt her around him, and he saw freckles...
-----
"Um...We started a band -- I had a band with my other friend, and we needed a drummer, and Kim was...uh...a drummer."
"Okay...That's it?"
"Yeah, I moved. I moved here. It kind of ended. We changed..."

Daria: Cynic with a Vampire 1

My girlfriend is a cartoon on the next Sick, Sad World, said the SSW announcer on the television, as Daria Morgendorffer and Jane Lane sat on Darias bed watching TV.I wish they bring back Celebrity Deathmatch, said Jane.

This particular drabble is based on two specific scenes from the comics, but I think (hope) it stands well enough on its own that you can understand it even if you don't remember/haven't read them. The dialogue framing the piece is an actual conversation between Scott and Ramona in volume 3 (tweaked ever-so-slightly), and the flashback itself is based on a single panel from the beginning of volume 2.
Also, this is the closest thing to a true drabble I've ever done. I suppose that's a kind of accomplishment.

Quite the interpretation! For a first "true drabble" it's quite masterful. Also, I got a chuckle out of Scott's internal monologue there. Guy needs to keep his head in the game. XD
