Monday : 80s music lyrics
Jan. 20th, 2020 12:34 amHello, everyone. I’m
cornerofmadness and today's theme is 80s music lyrics. I’ve noticed a resurgence in all things 1980s and since I was a teen then I’ve been floating on an 80’s high (at least as high as our hair was back then!)
Prompts can be any 80s’s lyrics! You can have them on the radio, the characters singing them or just plain use them for inspiration/make them part of the dialogue. However you want to tackle it. The character themselves don’t have to be from an 80s show but the lyrics do. If you want a little help finding some 80s songs for inspiration head here.
Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and fandom's full name for ease adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the spoiler cut.
If there are possible triggers in your story, please warn for them in the subject line!
Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt
Some examples to get the ball rolling...
+ Prodigal Son, Malcolm Bright Sweet dreams are made of this who am I to disagree (Sweet Dreams by the Eurthymics)
+ Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Buffy Summers + any, Another one bites the dust Hey, I'm gonna get you, too (Another One Bites the Dust by Queen)
+ Prodigal Son, Malcolm Bright + any that's me, stumbling away Slowly learning that life is O.K. (Take On Me by A-ha)
+ any, any To hear that tears me up inside And to see you cuts me like a knife (Every Rose has a Thorn by Poison)
+ any, any Every single one of us, The devil inside (The Devil Inside INXS

Date: 2020-01-20 05:37 am (UTC)Fill 1/2: Stargate Atlantis, Jennifer Keller + Rodney McKay/John Sheppard
Date: 2020-01-21 05:32 am (UTC)“Wow. Is it like that all the time?”
Savannah Amberly, Jennifer’s research partner, stepped through the event horizon with wide, wide eyes.
“Every time,” Jennifer said with a grin.
Vanna was carrying the case containing the reason for Jennifer’s return after so many years. It was cutting-edge medical equipment, a combination of Ancient, Asgardian, and Earth-based technology, and Atlantis would be the first site to get to test it out.
“I can’t believe you left all this,” Vanna said, turning in circles to take in the entirety of the Gate room.
It hadn’t been an easy decision. There’d been Rodney to think about, and her career. Not to mention her peace of mind. Atlantis hadn’t been an easy place to live, not even taking into account all the things that could – and frequently did – go wrong offworld.
“Dr. Keller. It’s nice to see you again. Dr. Amberly, welcome to Atlantis.”
Ambassador Woolsey was waiting to greet them, looking dapper as always in his Athosian-crafted suit.
“Richard. It’s good to see you, too.” Jennifer gave him a hug. “Should I be concerned that you don’t look a day older than the last time I saw you?”
“Clean living,” Richard replied, lips twitching up into a smile. “Do you remember the way to the medical wing?”
“Like I never left,” Jennifer assured him.
It wasn’t the same, though. For one thing, she and Vanna were outfitted with security bracelets that would only give them access to approved areas. For another, Atlantis was a proper city now and there were far more people in the halls than there ever had been when Jennifer was still living there.
“People are gonna go nuts for this place,” Vanna said. “An alien city in a distant galaxy.”
The SGC had been declassified, for the most part. Atlantis was still under wraps, as was the Mars base. One step at a time, Jennifer supposed.
And then she heard him, ranting at top volume somewhere around the next corner.
“Are you out of your tiny little mind?”
Jennifer was frozen in place. The moment she’d been alternately dreading and looking forward to had arrived, and sooner than she’d planned.
“Jenn? You okay?”
“Rodney.”
Vanna knew all about Rodney, how Jennifer had fallen for him during the incident with the parasite, and how he’d ultimately chosen Atlantis over their relationship. Jennifer thought enough time had passed but hearing Rodney’s voice made her feel unsteady all over again. She’s honestly loved him, once upon a time. And she knew he’d loved her.
Jennifer hadn’t made room in her life for love since then, focusing entirely on her career. Just like Rodney had.
“He sounds angry,” Vanna said in hushed tones.
“That’s his everyday voice,” Jennifer replied.

Date: 2020-01-20 06:18 am (UTC)And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time (all of the time)

Date: 2020-01-20 04:46 pm (UTC)Pepper blinked. "What?"
"Well." Tony rearranged his arms around her. Tilted his head slightly. Decided he liked the swollen state of her lips. "It's the truth. You don't wear much lipstick, so it's not like I'm kissing oil. Your lips are always soft and the things you do with them." Tony rolled his eyes to show the white and sagged slightly in Pepper's embrace. "You take my breath away."
"Uh huh." Pepper's mouth twitched, just enough to let Tony know she was at least amused.
"Seriously." He straightened up. Gave Pepper a peck on the nose. One on the corner of her mouth. Then the other. "Delightfully. Deliciously. De-mmph!"
Pepper cut him off with a kiss. Because it was one of the better ways to shut Tony Stark up.

take courage in a world, full of people
you can lose sight of it
And the darkness inside you
will make you feel so small
But I see your true colors, shining through
I see your true colors, and that's why I love you
