Monday: TV Tropes

[sycophantastic.livejournal.com]

Good morning/afternoon/evening, everyone. I'll be your guest host for the week & I'll always try to post as close to 12am PST as I can (though of course there may be times when I fall asleep & post a little late... which is what's happening right now, please forgive me). Our first theme is TV Tropes. Invariably, all forms of entertainment media rely on tried-&-true creative devices to shape their stories, develop their characters, just get their points across, etc, & today we're using those tropes as prompts.

You can visit the TV Tropes site here & pick out any trope(s) you like. Careful, though - people sometimes get lost in that site, it's so vast & so awesome!

Please keep these rules in mind when posting prompts:

• Only three prompts for the same fandom.
• Only five prompts in a row (though if one of your prompts is filled, you can prompt again).
• No spoilers in your prompts for at least a week after the airdate/release.
• Warn for any spoilers for your fic in bold and leave at least three spaces before the text.

Prompt formatting examples (because proper formatting for the code monkeys is good manners):

Supernatural, Dean/Castiel, hands-on approach
Inception, Arthur/Eames, did I just say that out loud?
CWRPS/Supernatural, Misha/Castiel/Dean, the existence of an identical stranger should probably be a bit more upsetting... though, at the moment, Dean's having a hard time remembering why

Nothing really interesting you today? That's alright, there are plenty of Lonely Prompts out there waiting for love.

Alright, you crazy kids. Have fun!

Steve took a deep breath as he pushed the door open. His heart sank; it really was as bad as Tim said. No wonder they'd run off and left Christian to him. Part of him wondered exactly what they would have done if he hadn't been there but then Christian put his fist through the wall and the thought escaped him.

He quickly crossed the room, calling Christian's name enough to get his attention. Grabbing his shoulder, he turned Christian to face him, holding him at arms length, hands curled around his biceps.

Christian's fingers dug into his shoulders and Steve tensed, not sure what Christian was going to do next, whether he was going to push him away or punch him.

What Christian did was neither of Steve's anticipated scenarios. In fact, Christian's face crumpled, his body slumping forward against Steve, clutching at him as silent tears fell.
