Late Friday Free For All and an Early bonus Saturday Free for all

[phantisma.livejournal.com]

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!

Sammy watches from the doorway everyday for two years.

Dean, who's older and knows what regret looks like and saw it the day dad left, sits quietly beside him and doesn't try to destroy his hope. He knows it's only a matter of time before Sammy understands that dad is never coming back.

Sammy has just turned five when he gives up.

Twenty years later Bobby gets a phone call.

"Dad, it's Jess. She's..."

A new voice comes on the phone.

"Bobby, something killed Jess. I think... I think it might be the same thing that got mom."

Bobby's shoulders slump.

"You boys get home now, I don't want you idjits going off half-cocked. I'll take care of everything." Bobby hangs up once the boys say their goodbyes.

He makes some phone calls, puts out some feelers.

He'll have some sort of plan worked out by the time the boys get here.

He hopes.

Oooh, that's beautiful. The wealth of subtext... just fabulous.

Aw... Yay for Dean just sitting with Sam and being supportive :) And yay for Sam calling Bobby 'Dad'! :D This is great!

*whimper* So, so sad! I can totally see this happening. Sammy would be the one constantly waiting for John to come back. I bet there's still a part of him waiting for John to show up again, even if he has given up on it. And Bobby would call them home so they wouldn't do anything dumb. He made such a great extra dad to those two. And if he'd had time to get to know Adam, I think he'd've practically adopted that kid, too. :-)

Poor Sam, even in this 'verse he can't escape the YED.

You did a wonderful job of building this 'verse in such a few words. It makes me wonder how the boy's lives would have been different if John HAD left them with Bobby, even if it was only during the school year.
