comment_ficHello, everyone. I’m ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
simplyn2deep and today's theme is Parallel Universe(s). Pretty self-explanatory. Prompts can be alternate histories, time travel, and hyperspace...whatever your heart desires for the parallel universe.
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 above-mentioned spoiler cut.
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...
+ Hawaii Five-0; Alive McGarretts (John McGarrett/Doris McGarrett + Steve McGarrett + Mary Ann McGarrett; Doris didn't fake her death so Steve and Mary grew up together with their parents in Hawaii
+ Teen Wolf; Alive Hales; Kate never got the chance to kill the Hales
+ Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector; Lincoln Rhyme; Lincoln caught the Bone Collector but he was still paralyzed
We are now using AO3 to bookmark filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2020 collection. See further notes on this new option here.
Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Check out the just created Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet. For more recent prompts to write, you can also use LJ’s advanced search options to limit keyword results to only comments in this community.
While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.
Before you click away from this page, please think about signing up to be a host. After this week, we are out of hosts. I wasn’t expecting it so early in the year (which is why I’m hosting this week). Head to the Hosting Changes? entry to leave you comments or head to the Guest Host entry to sign up to host a week or two.

Date: 2020-01-27 09:51 pm (UTC)“In the words of Benjamin Franklin, only two things are certain,” Steve Rogers growls. “Death and taxes. And we’ve already paid a terrible price for your folly.” He raises his arm, the Infinity Gauntlet shining, stones twinkling in the hazy light of the battlefield.
He snaps his fingers.
For a moment, nothing seems to happen. Then Thanos sits down, slowly, and crumbles into dust. Their war is over.
Steve stands motionless. His expression is neither happy nor sad. He seems to be concentrating. “Can’t leave things a mess like this,” he murmurs, and snaps again.
The carnage-strewn ground is once more fields and forest, peaceful and undisturbed. “That’s better,” he declares. Then his knees buckle. He goes down.
Bucky and Tony reach him at the same time. There’s something wrong the left side of Steve’s face, it seems to be flaking away, and there’s a line of blood oozing from his left ear. He blinks. Says, “It’s okay. I’ve been on borrowed time since 1934.”
“No, no, no--punk, you can leave me like this!” Bucky pleads.
“Sorry, Bucky. End of the line…” He eyes seek Tony’s. “No more fighting. Promise me.”
“I promise.” Tony says. He’d promise anything, in this moment, to give Steve peace.
Bucky is clinging to Steve’s right hand, but he extends his left. Tony seizes it and shakes. “I got no beef,” Bucky tells his friend. “but don’t go. Please, don’t go.”
“Good,” Steve breathes. And then he’s gone.
The funeral, at Bucky’s request, is modest. Steve wouldn’t have wanted a fuss. He’s laid to rest in the family plot beside his parents, a space that’s been waiting for him for nearly ninety years. There’s no flashy memorial, no carved marble statue, no bronze likeness, Just a simple marble rectangle engraved with the words
GOD BLESS AMERICA
“He could never back away from a fight,” Bucky says to the handful of mourners attending the private ceremony. “Didn’t matter if it was a kid twice his size, five kids twice his size or the entire German army. He wasn’t going to be pushed around, or let anybody push somebody else around. It’s who he was. This…was inevitable.”

Date: 2020-01-28 07:24 pm (UTC)amazing fill, so in character, nonfussy like Steve was, so much "just do the job" but then his last thing not wanting fighting between two friends...ugh, that's so perfect. I also really like the title
Re: Fill -- Death and Taxes
Date: 2020-01-28 07:47 pm (UTC)I'm glad you enjoyed it. I could see Steve being practical and inspirational to the end, and when I realized that quote was from Ben Franklin, well, that was just too perfect.
