evil_little_dog back with today's theme: 70s songs! Whatever prompt you make should include a song title or lyric from a 70s song.
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...
+ The Addams Family, Any+Any, Called down the lightning / By a mystical name / Then the rainmaker called on the thunder / And suddenly it began to rain Rainmaker, First National Band
+ The X-Files, Fox Mulder+Dana Scully, I don't know just where I'll find her / Maybe the soldier with the suitcase saw her / She just said she was goin' to Texas for a little while Texas Morning, First National Band
+ Magnum P.I.(2018), Juliet Higgins+any, "Can you play 'Lola' by the Kinks?"
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.

Date: 2020-09-29 01:55 pm (UTC)Fill: Evan Lorne/David Parrish + Chuck + Teyla
Date: 2020-09-30 01:58 am (UTC)David froze in the act of repotting one of the flowering red plants they were studying for medicinal uses. There was white noise buzzing in his ears and for a long moment he forgot to breathe.
Dr. Parrish, do you copy?
David wiped one hand on his pants and reached up to his ear. “Copy.”
He wanted to run, and he wanted to hide, both at the same time. But he knew he couldn’t hide, even if the news was dire. And he couldn’t run, because the universe would see his haste and punish him. It was a stupid superstition, but one that had clung to him for as long as he could remember.
God rewards patience, his mother always liked to say.
David washed his hands, ignoring the way they trembled, and thoroughly dried them before stepping out of the greenhouse. He kept measured paces all the way to the transporter, counting them as he went.
Evan’s team went missing a week ago. Anything could’ve happened in that time. Seven days. One hundred and sixty-eight hours. They could’ve been tortured, killed, fed on by Wraith. David knew Evan would do everything in his power to keep his men alive, even if it meant his own death.
David stepped out of the transporter, trying to steel his spine for whatever might lay ahead. He had to be strong. Evan deserved that.
The Gate room was a hive of activity. Medical staff were swarming around, doing triage and loading people up on gurneys. David found himself frozen yet again, scanning for the one face he most wanted to see.
“Dr. Parrish!” Teyla waved him over.
And there was Evan, already strapped to a gurney that would be bound for the infirmary. Alive. Bruised and bloody, but alive.
“Hey. There you are.” Evan reached out his hand and David grasped hold, held tight. “Looks worse than it is. Promise.”
David didn’t buy that for a second, but he just pressed a kiss to Evan’s knuckles and didn’t say anything about the tears leaking out of Evan’s eyes. Whatever he’d been through must have been terrible.
“Moving out, Doc,” one of the Marines said, pushing Evan’s gurney toward the transporter.
Evan didn’t ask, but David didn’t need him to.
“I’m right here with you,” he said. “All the way.”
The Marine’s steps were brisk but not hurried, and David nodded.
God rewarded patience.

Date: 2020-09-29 03:07 pm (UTC)Fill 1/2: Malcolm Bright + Dani + Edrisa (Monster Hunters 'verse)
Date: 2020-09-29 07:59 pm (UTC)“Where are we?” Dani asked, keeping her voice down just in case.
She, Malcolm, and Edrisa were standing in an impossibly long hallway intermittently lit with flickering wall sconces that created pools of shadows that seemed to move, and there was a hum of voices she could almost hear. Far, far at the end of the hall was a closed door.
“I think I saw this in a movie once,” Edrisa said. “There was this family and they lived in a haunted subdivision and there was this clown –”
“It’s my nightmare.” Malcolm’s voice was so soft Dani almost didn’t hear it, but Edrisa abruptly stopped talking and looked at Malcolm with wide, apologetic eyes.
Malcolm was staring down the hall, and a statue had more expression on its face than he did. Dani reached out a tentative hand and touched his arm.
“Malcolm?”
Before he could respond, the entire hallway shook and a roar sounded from behind the door. Edrisa gave a little scream and clutched Dani’s arm, but Malcolm didn’t seem scared at all.
“He’s here,” Malcolm said.
Dani thought she detected a tremor in his voice, and she suddenly understood. They were literally inside Malcolm’s nightmare. Probably one he had all the time. Which meant the creature roaring behind that door was his dad. His demon dad.
“This is just a dream,” Dani said firmly. She slid her hand into Malcolm’s and he squeezed it hard. “We’re probably asleep in the library.”
“I’m sorry,” Edrisa said. “I shouldn’t have read that spell out loud. You told me not to, but it didn’t seem like anything bad.”
“Assume the worst,” Malcolm replied. But he leaned around Dani and offered Edrisa a weak smile. “I should be the one apologizing. My brain isn’t a great place to be.”
“Your brain is beautiful,” Edrisa said breathlessly.
Dani rolled her eyes. “When do you usually wake up, Malcolm?”
Malcolm kept a death grip on her hand. “We have to go through the door.”
“Then let’s do it and get out of here. I have a history test to study for.”
Dani felt a little like she was in that scene from Wizard of Oz, where Dorothy and her weird friends were walking in to meet the Wizard. Edrisa had one arm looped through Dani’s, and Malcolm was still holding her other hand, and their progress through the shadows was slow.
Malcolm was suddenly jerked toward the wall, almost losing contact with Dani. Shadowy hands were tugging on him, and a shadowy, insubstantial arm was wrapped across his chest.
“Malcolm!” Edrisa let go of Dani and grabbed hold of Malcolm’s other hand.
Both girls pulled back with all their strength – and for a Slayer like Dani, it was considerable – and suddenly the hands let go. Malcolm staggered forward.
“You okay?” Dani asked.
Malcolm nodded, his lips pressed into a thin, tight line.
It was Malcolm’s nightmare, so Dani wondered if he was the only one in danger. Just to be on the safe side, she sandwiched him between her and Edrisa.
They continued down the hall, and Dani was right. Everything that came from the shadows came for Malcolm – snakes, slimly tentacles, still more grasping hands – and every time she and Edrisa beat them back, until Malcolm was confident enough to fight back on his own behalf.
The surprised but triumphant look on his face when he successfully sent an oozing tentacle back to the shadows did funny things to Dani’s heart.
“It doesn’t usually go like this,” Malcolm said.
“You just needed two badass ladies on your side,” Edrisa said. One lens of her glasses was broken and she had a smudge of something noxious across her cheek, but she was grinning from ear to ear.
And then they were at the door. It wouldn’t have been out of place in a giant’s castle; Dani almost couldn’t see the top of it.
“My dad’s in there,” Malcolm said. But he didn’t sound scared or emotionless this time.
“We’ll kick his ass, too,” Edrisa said confidently.
“You might want to tone that down, Warrior Princess,” Dani replied. “We’re here to back you up, Malcolm. You’re not facing him alone.”
Malcolm gave her a grateful look, then raised his hands and pushed the door open.

Maybe I'm amazed at the the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you (Maybe I'm Amazed- Paul McCartney)
