brumeier, and this week we’re going to be hitting the library shelves for some titles because I love me some books. Today’s theme is Book Titles: Travel! Your prompts can be any book title that fits this theme, whether or not the actual book is in that genre.
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...
+ The Losers, Jake Jensen/Carlos “Cougar” Alvarez, Tales from the Gas Station (Jack Townsend)
+ Stargate Atlantis, John Sheppard +/ Any, The City on the Sea (Heather Carson)
+ Prodigal Son, Gil Arroyo + Malcolm Bright, Odd Adventures with Your Other Father (Norman Prentiss)
+ Astro, Any, The Island Experience (Parker Avrile)
We use 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 2016 collection. See further notes on this new option here.
Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Check out Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 1 (not very current), Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 2, or the Calendar Archives, or for more recent prompts, you can use LJ's advanced search options to find prompts to request and/or fill.
While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheets and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.

Date: 2021-12-07 03:35 pm (UTC)“About five hours,” Adam replied. “You might as well grab some kip, you didn’t get much last night.”
“Fair enough. Then we can swap over for the last part of the journey if you want.”
Lucas quickly fell asleep. There were times when he still had trouble sleeping, but he was worn out from their latest operation, and with Adam beside him, unless he tensed up Lucas would be able to sleep soundly.
When he woke, he blinked and looked around. “It felt like I was asleep for ages, but I can’t have been judging from where we are,” he said.
“You were,” Adam answered. “There was a breakdown in the roadworks, and I’ve considerably revised our ETA.”
“Which means we won’t be there until late afternoon.” Lucas groaned.
“Is that a general or a specific groan?”
“Our late lunch looks like being afternoon tea. Not that I object to having tea, but how about we stop somewhere and get a decent lunch? By which I mean not the motorway services.”
Adam, fed up with crawling along the motorway, agreed to them coming of and heading cross country, and took the next exit. With Lucas map reading they found a suitable pub to stop at for lunch and then they set off again, this time Lucas drove, and Adam caught up on some sleep.
Adam woke as they pulled into a car park of what from his glance at the surrounding buildings was a country town. “Is there a problem?” he asked.
“Bookshop,” Lucas replied. “You can stay in the car if you like. I won’t be long.”
“I’ll get out and stretch my legs. I know you and bookshops, you’re never as quick as you think you’ll be.”
While Lucas disappeared into the bookshop, Adam strolled up and down the high street and then joined his partner. “Have you made your selection?” he asked. “Because it would be good to get to there in time to change and have a drink before dinner.”
“Almost. I just can’t decide which of these two to buy.”
“Buy both. You know you will anyway, and it’ll save us ten minutes while you think about it.”
Lucas laughed and paid for his purchases.
Adam took the wheel again for the final stint, leaving Lucas to map read and spot the correct turnings in the increasingly country lanes.
Finally they turned up the drive and came to a halt at the old manor house. Both got out of the car and stretched as their host came out to greet them.
“Did you have a good journey?” she asked.
