Gakked from my flist:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next three sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.
6. Tag five other people to do the same. (eh, choose yourselves)
from Blood Debt, by Tanya Huff(re-reading to keep the Blood Ties burn going):

"Were you alive?" Celluci mouthed as she pulled him around the edge of her chair and pushed him down onto a corner of the cluttered desk.
Brows lowered, she acknowledged he'd heard correctly with a single nod, then tried to reassure her caller. "It doesn't matter if they're stupid questions as long as it answers yes."
(They're trying to come up with questions for which the answer is "yes" to assuage a ghost who makes a horrible, mind-curdling sound if you ask a question for which the answer *isn't* yes... or if you do anything else but ask a yes-resulting question. It's complicated... go read it. *s*)
