comment_ficHi everyone! I’m chibifukurou and I’m still here enabling your comment_fic addiction this week.
Today’s theme is AU. Today all the prompts have to involve an AU of some sort. Whether it be fusions or Universes with minor differences, anything goes as far as fandoms and pairings are concerned.
The Rules:
■ Don’t prompt more than 5 prompts in a row or 3 prompts per fandom. When someone has answered your prompt, you can prompt again.
■ No spoilers in your prompt until at least 1 week after the original airing or publication date. If there are spoilers in your fic, you must warn in bold and leave at least 3 spaces.
■ Thank your fic providers they thrive on feedback.
■ For the sake of the code monkeys’ sanity remember to format your prompts correctly.
Formatting examples:
Fandom, Character, prompt
Fandom, Character/Character, prompt
Fandom/Fandom, Character(s), prompt
None of today's prompts interest you? Make someone’s day and answer one of the myriad of Lonely prompts!

Date: 2012-06-30 09:24 pm (UTC)Steve had been with Navy Intelligence for years. He had not let his mutant ability to cause and control explosions pigeon hole him into a demolitions or black ops crew. He wanted to be known for what he was, not for an ability he had been born with. But then his father died and Hawaii’s governor had offered him a no-red-tape superhero task force. The only reason he had accepted was to find his father’s murderer, he couldn’t trust the haole to do it right. Steve’s call sign had been Kekoa, warrior, for years. He saw no need to change it as he started up the task force.
The first thing he needed was a partner. Then Steve realized that the haole investigating his father’s case was 1, a very good detective, and 2, had a talent (super?) of finding hidden connections. Steve ramrodded Danny Williams onto his team. Danny didn’t have a superhero name and refused every tag Steve tried. Because of Danny’s ability to get things done when no one was watching, Chin and Kono called him Menehune after the legendary little people of the island who built fish ponds and temples after dark. Danny ignored that name too. Steve eventually gave up on that front and called him by his daughter’s nickname, “Danno.”
When Steve discovered that Chin had a special ability, he had to invite him to join the governor’s special task force. Chin could calm any crowd or mob with the force of his will. It was as if his innate calm spread among the masses. Steve called him Mauna (mountain) but Danny called him Deep Waters and that was that. Then they found out that Chin could manipulate computers better than people and they were all happy.
Kono was Kai Keiki, child of saltwater, because the ocean gave her all of its secrets. She was a rookie, but promising. Steve was smug as the task force clear case after case.

Date: 2012-04-08 09:05 am (UTC)There's a long pause and Jim tries but he can't seem to find words, can't manage to say everything he needs to, it all seems caught up in a bundle of please don't go and don't leave me and he can't get any of it out.
Brian's face is wrecked and disappointed, he's taken silence for refusal (and maybe he has a point, Jim's pissed) and he's always been the type to hit first rather than be hit later.
"Ah, real partner wouldn't have to ask that would he?"
Jim wants to tell him to fuck off, to throw his mistakes back in his face, to break this thing they have irrevocably but he knows that if he answers Brian's knee jerk anger in turn there will be no making up, no going back and he just...can't.
"Shut up Brian, this is your fucking fault so give me at least a moment before I throw away everything I've worked for." Jim rakes his hands roughly through his hair and leans back against the sink.
Brian deflates strangely, losing all the anger he had been building up for what Jim bets would have been a spectacular scene leaves him sort of bewildered and momentarily quiet.
"Fuller offered to put me back on the team tomorrow if I said it was all your fault." Brian's eyes shoot up and he opens his mouth to say something no doubt angry and accusatory. "Don't start Bri, I told him to fuck off, I just want you to remember what I've already given up for you."
Brian doesn't ask why Jim's throwing his life over for him, doesn't ask why he's more important than something Jim's been working up to for years, he doesn't ask...yet. For now he just picks up his duffel, slings a too tight arm around Jim's shoulder and leads then away from their old life.

Fill:
Date: 2012-04-08 11:12 am (UTC)The man in question is what would have unimaginatively termed 'the new guy'. He moved in across from them nearly a fortnight ago and apart from knowing he looks spectacular shirtless, Charles knows exactly nothing about him.
"He looks pretty nice to me."
Raven finally looks up from her phone and fixes him with the disappointed look he swears she must be practising in the mirror.
"Is this a view formed by your head or your dick?"
Charles' face tries for wounded, remembers the time she had to rescue him from some creep's balcony, and settles for challenging instead.
"It's not like you know much more about him!"
"He looks like a shark, his entire garage is full of sharp metal objects and you're attracted to him which pretty much guarantees he has some form of psychological disorder."
"You can't judge someone by how they look!" Charles carefully ignores the comment about his attraction because from past evidence she really does have the upper hand there.
"You tried to scare off one of my boyfriends last year because he had a little body modification." She glared at him as if that was still a raw wound when he knew very well she'd dated at least five other people since then.
"A little?! He was red Raven! Red with a tail! I think that's a much better reason for disliking someone than 'he looks like a shark'!"
Raven opened her mouth to shout back and across the road Eric finished mowing his lawn in peace.

Date: 2012-03-21 12:29 am (UTC)"Egg whites are very nutritious. They--"
"Who do you think I am, Rocky Balboa? All I asked was that you get me a donut. I'd go out for one myself, but I'd get mobbed."
Steve rolled his eyes. Fifteen years of babysitting celebrities, and the first diva he met was a man his own age.
"Looks like you're stuck with egg whites, then," said Steve, and pulled a face.
Then, from nowhere, Danny Williams laughed.
"Danny," he said, holding out a hand.
"Steve McGarrett."
~
Danny wasn't so bad. Steve really was concerned for his health, though; the guy didn't ever seem to rest. Between red carpet events, rehearsing, performing, traveling, and shouting at his ex-wife over the phone, not to mention bitching about the food, Steve was surprised he had any time to sleep.
Not that Steve was a positive influence on that front. The other day he'd been walking back to his room at the hotel after picking up pizza, only to bump into Danny on the way.
"Damn it, McGarrett! Watch where you're--no, monkey. Of course I didn't say that. I'm talking to Steve's brother, uh, Dominic."
"Nice save," Steve mouthed, trying to imagine how he could possibly have come up in conversation between Danny and his daughter.
"Okay, so maybe I said it. But I'm an adult, so I'm allowed to say these sort of things."
As Grace's laughter rang tinnily down the phone, Danny made clear through a complicated process of mime that he was going to have some of that pizza, McGarrett, and there were no two ways about it.
"You have to go? Well, that's okay, monkey. I'm just about to have my dinner too. Remember, Danno loves you."
"Danno?"
"Don't, Steve. Just - don't even try."
"What? I like it. It's sweet. Danno. Kind of undermines your whole rockstar persona, though."
"Babe, nothing about me is sweet. Okay?"
"Whatever, Danno," said Steve, clapping him on the shoulder with his free hand. "You want to steal my pizza in your room or mine?"
"I've got cable."
"Sold."

"What--is that pineapple? You messed up pizza. I can't believe you messed up pizza."
~
They weren't friends, or anything. They were colleagues. And okay, maybe they watched the game together when they had a spare evening (so rarely), and maybe Danny was trying to teach Steve how to play the guitar ("My fingers are too big"; "If Meatloaf played guitar, so can you"; "I don't think Meatloaf played, Danny"), but Steve was still getting paid for the privilege.
The day Danny was nearly killed...not so much fun.
Chin acted first, and he acted fast. All that time playing video games instead of working on the light shows must have paid off, because he spotted that the guy was packing the moment he sauntered in, and blocked his path to Danny. Steve didn't notice Chin's frantic hand gestures; he was too busy trying to master a G chord and being mocked by Danny, so it was Kono who moved first when the guy lifted his gun. She tackled him, sending him face-first into the floor, but not before he got a shot off.
The bullet ripped through Danny's favourite guitar, but change the angle by ten degrees and it would have ripped straight through Danny.
"Shit," said Danny, putting his hand on Steve's shoulder. "You okay?"
You okay? As though Steve was the one that needed protected. Ten years, and not one nutjob had come within a hundred feet of a client, let alone with a weapon.
"You're going to need a security detail, Mr. Williams" said Steve. Kono could lead it. She was clearly better than him at the job, and she was only a rookie. "Say goodbye to private time. And there's no more picking up Grace by yourself, either."
He stalked off to deal with the aftermath and, though he tried to hide it, he was just as shaken as Danny.
They weren't friends, or anything.
And he'd do well to remember it.
