Well, we're coming to the end of the week and our last theme is... the Future!  No, no, I don't mean a week or a year from today.  I'm talking the Jetsons, or Firefly, or even post-apocalyptic "damned dirty apes" future.  Think you can handle it?  Show what you think is going to happen hundreds or thousands of years from now with your favorite characters/pairings.

As always, follow the rules: 

* No more than three prompts from one fandom
* No more than five prompts in a row
* Keep spoilers out of the prompts until a week after air-date
* If your prompts get answered feel free to leave new ones
* Have fun and be nice! Remember to thank you ficprovider should your prompt get answered!

Remember, please be kind and gentle to our codemonkeys by prompting correctly.  (see above Planet of Apes reference? We do not want that on our hands. ;-)  ): 

Leverage/Firefly, the team, "To the black"

Criminal Minds, Reid/Morgan, the hovercraft seems to be on the fritz again

As always, if you don't see anything that captures your interest please take a look at our lonely prompts.

Their Headmaster portraits watch over the school for years to comes, HP, Harry/Snape

[entropynchaos.livejournal.com]

The first twenty years after Harry's portait is mounted on the wall is this simmering, low-grade antagonism. Although they talked things through while Harry was alive and Headmaster, their portraits don't seem to have made the same amount of progress.

The others tut in disapproval, and the current Headmistress (Ron and Hermione's daughter) is thoroughly too amused by them. The two of them bicker and watch as students come in to be praised and reprimanded and Snape snaps acidically at them from his frame while Harry commiserates and encourages from his own.

They never venture into each other's frames.

Until one day they do. Seventy years after Harry's death and his frame's developed woodworm. They ask him to move into Snape's frame because he's the closest while they do the necessary repairs and...well...seventy years next to each other and bickering night and day and they've been enemies for so long that they've become friends, almost. So, sure, why not?

...There's this portrait of a bedroom up in one of the more infrequently used corridors. There's a bed with sheets and pillows and it feels real enough to a painted man. The portrait has been empty of all human images since before anyone can remember. There's a cat - ginger with white socks - but Severus has always had a weakness for cats.

Besides, it gets them away from the nosy, prying eyes and gossiping mouths of their neighbours for a while, doesn't it?

And arguments turn into friendly discussions which turn into...well. Into more.

Oh that is just perfect! So very sweet and just like them, fighting until they fight themselves into loving each other. Thank you for this. :D
