I am terribly sorry everyone. Between getting ready to leave on Monday for my first trip to England, and this horrific cold and the meds for said cold, plus running two challenge comms that have major milestones this week, I completely forgot it was my weekend to host.
So, because I've only just now realized it, we're going to make Saturday a free for all too, just to make it up to y'all. This post will serve for both Friday and Saturday.
Come on in and pull up a comment or three. Any fandom, any prompt (mindful that there are no spoilers in the prompt itself), any pairing, any anything!
Remember the rules (no more than 5 posts in a row, 3 per fandom, no spoilers in the prompt, if there are spoilers in the fic, please warn and leave space for people to skip over it) and format your prompts properly (and mind the length of the prompts).
For example:
Leverage, Eliot/author's choice, his was a lonely road, and comfort came at a cost
Hawaii 5-0, Danny/Steve, prick me again and watch me bleed
Criminal Minds/White Collar, Spencer Reid/Neal Caffrey, Derek Morgan, jealousy
Have fun!

Date: 2011-12-04 05:31 am (UTC)Nathaniel is happy.
His pard is his family.
Cherry and Zane, Vivian and Micah, Gregory and even Stephan, all of them are the brothers and sisters he's always wanted.
And even though in age he is a middle child, in the eyes of everyone he's the youngest, the baby, the omega.
Then there is his other family.
Anita and Damian.
He wants to say that Anita is the wife but that's too gender-centric to ever describe Anita. Besides, everyone knows he's the wife. Even Anita has laughingly commented on it.
So he's the wife and Anita is the husband and Damian...
Nathaniel hestitates, thinking about the third part of their triumvirate.
Damian is Damian and that is enough.
Nathanial smiles as he slides from the puppy pile, carressing an ankle here, kissing a cheek there, running his fingers through Anita's hair as he pulls himself to his feet and heads downstairs to start breakfast.
He wonders if Damian would like anything special for when he wakes up.

Date: 2012-08-10 11:59 pm (UTC)Then Reyes, a girl doesn’t go from what she went to, to where she is now. A change like that doesn’t happen over night. No more seizures reported at all. No amount of medicine evens that shit out that quickly.
And something really strange is happening to his lacrosse team. Lahey, Whitmore, Boyd, hell even Greenburg have these weird things going on with their eyes. It just ain’t normal. The only person who doesn’t seem to be an alien is Balinsky and that kid, apparently can really play lacrosse.
So he may have come to some conclusions about his students, but if they’re aliens or creatures of the night. It isn’t his business. As long as they turn their Econ homework in and win games, he’ll let things go on and pretend he doesn’t notice anything. Like the claws or the fangs or the way that McCall kid smells everything. He doesn’t notice those things at all. Nope, not him.

Date: 2015-08-16 02:47 am (UTC)He sees her at Starbucks, of all places, ordering cocoa in the middle of July in the deep south. She's pretty, about the same age he appears to be, and he notices her clock him not long after he notices her. Someone's trained her, then.
She moves like a slayer, he thinks, watching her walk to a table in the corner, where she sets her things. But she's not one.
Oh, no, she is something far older. It's been a long time since he's seen something so powerful out and about. She's chained, though. Shackled in this form, given flesh and blood, bone and attitude - she's a good glare on her. Keeps darting glances at him, trying to camouflage them as taking in the art on the wall.
(His current life is as an interior decorator who has ranted about Starbucks' art before. If he thought she'd let him close, he'd tell her just to hear her laugh. She looks like an excellent laugher.)
Instead, he stays by the counter to wait for his drink, and when it comes, he salutes her with it and leaves. There was a time he would’ve courted her for the power, would’ve broken her and used her. Instead of a continent, he could’ve laid the world bare, taken everything, possibly moved on into other realms not seen in longer than his life.
But those times are gone. For now.
He glances over his shoulder; she’s watching him go. He wonders what she sees.

Date: 2011-12-03 06:45 pm (UTC)Filled - Chocolate is the new whiskey
Date: 2013-06-21 03:01 pm (UTC)In Jim's defense, the chocolate was Chekov's idea.
The evening started innocently enough. The holiday party, the first during their five-year mission, was scheduled for nineteen hundred hours in the Enterprise mess. There was going to be live music and pie and freshly baked cookies, and Jim had even haggled for real alcohol on Starbase 12. Despite all that, however, Spock had informed the captain of his intention to spend the evening in the science lab overseeing inoculations of bacteria he was preparing as a host for virus cultures.
"Sounds fascinating," Jim said over their usual breakfast of toast and coffee and whatever that beige stuff was that Spock always replicated. "But can it wait until tomorrow? I can't think of a better way to spend Christmas morning than staring at Petri dishes."
"Is this your way of telling me that you prefer that I accompany you this evening?" Spock asked, raising his eyes. Jim blinked.
"Of course I'd prefer that. It's the officers' holiday party, and you are my first officer."
So Spock abandoned his proposed evening of agar and cotton swabs and stood beside Jim in his dress blues, straight faced and devastating. He had no idea, no idea how good he looked in uniform. Jim took in the sight of him with a muted sigh and declared himself a masochist, nodding at his officers as they entered the mess. He could have allowed Spock to celebrate by hiding with whatever he was growing down in the lab, and Jim could have spent the evening engaged in innocent flirtation. Instead he had gone and convinced Spock to attend. Why did he do this to himself? Ever since waking up in the hospital to find Spock standing vigil at his bedside and almost splitting his face smiling up at him (Bones later told him he'd been calling Spock's name in his sleep -- embarrassing), Jim had abandoned the notion that this was merely a crush. As Bones said, he was head-over-heels fucked, and Spock seemed oblivious. He and Uhura had cooled things, sure, and he hadn't been seeing anyone since -- not to Jim's knowledge, anyway. That didn't mean that Spock had clued into Jim's less-than-subtle ardor, but a man could dream. Being captain, Jim was in no position to bring it to his attention (Starfleet had made him sign a lengthy document stating that he understood regulations against initiating fraternization with any subordinate, which effectively sentenced him to a five-year relationship with his right hand). That left him standing shoulder to shoulder with the Vulcan object of his affection and no outlet for his frustration.
But it was better than standing there without him.
Jim's master plan for the night had been to get Spock to nurse a really, really spiked glass of eggnog in the hopes that it would melt away some of the Vulcan stoicism. Maybe he'd flirt a little. Maybe Spock would respond. Maybe Spock would fall for the "whoops, we're under the mistletoe" routine. (Was the replicator even programmed for mistletoe? Maybe Sulu was growing some down in botany.) Jim would settle for the long glances Spock gave him on the bridge sometimes. So he prepared said glass, with Scotty's assistance (because if anyone on the ship knew how to drink, it was the Lieutenant Commander) and presented it to Spock, who regarded it with a raised eyebrow.
"It's Christmas, Spock! We're off duty," Jim said. "C'mon, indulge me."
To his surprise, Spock agreed, staying close to Jim's side and accepting the drink, which he wrapped in a cloth napkin (there were tablecloths too -- Jim really had gone all out) and sipped quietly. Jim smiled at him over a hot buttered rum and crossed mental fingers. What resulted was a whirlwind of Vulcan sass from the only slightly tipsy first officer. The sass triggered a headache, so Jim excused himself to the food table and was assembling a generous selection of cookies when Chekov approached with a cup of light brown liquid and a straw.
"It is chocolate milk," he said in a helpful tone. "It will produce the desired effect, yes?"
"Huh?"
"Chocolate. For Vulcans, it is psychoactive. Much more effective than your whiskey."
