Color-i-fic

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

A very happy Thursday to you! Hump day is over, and the weekend is right around the corner.

Today’s theme is ‘Color-i-Fic’. What I mean by that is today’s prompt must include a color.

Please remember the rules so everyone can have a good time:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts from one fandom at a time.
No spoilers in your prompt until at least one week after the original airing/publication date. If there are spoilers in your fic, warn in bold and leave at least three spaces

Please always use the following format to make it easier on the code monkeys:
Fandom(s), character or pairing, prompt.

Have a few examples!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike/Dru, Red as blood
The X-Files, Mulder+/Scully, Little green men
The Big Bang Theory, Any/Ensemble, “Just because I’m wearing a red shirt doesn’t mean I’m going to die first.”
Fullmetal Alchemist, Alphonse, Life is so much more colorful now that he’s human again.

Star Trek, Bones/Jim, command gold.

[sharpiesgal.livejournal.com]

Bones leaned back in bed and watched Jim pull on his uniform top. "That color looks good on you," he remarked.

"Because it brings out the blond highlights in my hair," Jim quipped.

"No silly," Bones drawled. He rolled off the bed and pulled Jim into a loose embrace. "It makes you look sexy as hell."

"Really?"

"You betcha." Bones pulled Jim into a heated kiss.

Supernatural, any, green with envy

SPN, Sam/Castiel, Dean POV

[dreamsofspike.livejournal.com]

It makes him feel sick.

It's not like they don't deserve it - Sammy and Cas, after everything they've been through, all that they've lost.

It's not like it doesn't make sense. After all, no one can quite understand the mistakes Sam's made in pursuit of the greater good, like Cas can - and vice versa. There's moments when Dean sees them looking at each other with a level of understanding that he can't seem to reach when it comes to either of them anymore.

And that - that's what the problem is. That's why Dean can't quite bring himself to be genuinely, wholeheartedly happy for them.

Because he can't help feeling like when Sam and Cas finally found each other - he lost them both.

Supernatural, Dean/Castiel, Castiel's wings are black.

[cearney.livejournal.com]

The first time Dean saw Castiel’s wings was also their very first meeting in that shed Bobby had picked out. Dean hadn’t even properly met the guy, but was more than ready to kill him for all the trouble he had caused. He almost got deaf from hearing him speak and then there was the whole thing with Pamela. Once Castiel appeared he did properly stab him in the chest just to discover it didn’t work. A second later the guy introduced himself as an ‘angel of the lord’ and actually showed his wings. Dean couldn’t help but stare as they spread out wide filling the whole shed. Was this really an angel? he wondered. This guy just looked like some regular and boring tax accountant. Definitely not some heavenly cloud hopper. Weren’t angels also supposed to have white wings? At least those who served heaven. Black was reserved for the fallen ones.

any, any, Back in Black

Iron Man 1, Tony Stark, Back in Black

[sharpiesgal.livejournal.com]

Before Afghanistan, Tony Stark was very much an arrogant peacock. He dressed flamboyantly, threw lavish parties, spent money like water and drank to excess.

After Afghanistan, Tony was a deeply changed man. He still spent money like water, threw lavish parties and drank to excess; but now he dressed mainly in black.

Hawaii Five-0, Steve/Danny, Purple Heart

[sharpiesgal.livejournal.com]

Danny removes Steve's uniform from the garment bag his lover stored it in and placed it on their bed. He stopped and studied the ribbons fingering the last one.

It was the ribbon denoting that Steve had recently received a Purple Heart. He felt a sliver of fear slide down his spine at how close he had come to losing Steve.

"Hey," Steve said as he rested a hand on Danny's shoulder.

Danny started. He turned and growled, "You got to stop sneaking up on me. It's giving me gray hair."

"Sorry," Steve apologized. "But, you were lost in your own little world."

"Just thinking about how you got this last ribbon."

Steve pulled Danny into a loose embrace. He placed finger under his chin and made him look up. "It's an occupational hazard, and I'm fine."

"I know that in here," Danny admitted with a tap to his temple. "But, my heart still has doubts."

"I would do nothing that would take me away from you and Grace," Steve softly vowed.

"Is that what today is about?"

"A little bit," Steve admitted. "But, it's also about moving on."

"You don't have to leave the Navy for us Steve. We know how important it is to you."

"After 25 years, I think it's time. Besides, I have other priorities now," Steve said before lowering his head and taking Danny's mouth in a soft kiss.

Any, Any, "What a horrible thing yellow is."

Fill... or at least attempt at... (TBBT, Sheldon+Leonard)

[dawnangel14.livejournal.com]

"What a horrible thing yellow is."

Leonard lifted his attention from his food to the man in front of him, who had made once again a very out-of-the-blue statement.

"What?" Leonard spoke, barely audible due to his full mouth.

Sheldon stared at him until he swallowed and asked the question properly; his mother hadn't taught Sheldon manners for nothing.

"Yellow. It's too sparky and luminous" complained Sheldon. "Not to mention it's completely wrong when some people wear something yellow-colored."

He glared at Leslie Winkle, who was across the cafeteria wearing a yellow shirt.

"What did yellow did to you?" asked Leonard, internally wondering why did he followed a crazy man's conversation.

"Nothing, really. I just don't like it" commented Sheldon. "But you have to admit, it's the worst color of them all. I think the best one's brown, it's the color of soil and fecal matter..."

Leonard almost threw up the food he had on his mouth.

"What's going on?" Howard and Raj had just arrived to their table.

"Sheldon hates yellow and I lost appetite" informed Leonard, moving his tray away from his sight. "Don't ask."

The Voice RPF, Adam/Blake

[dreamsofspike.livejournal.com]

He feels guilty for feeling good about it, even a little - but when Blake shows up at his door late one night, heartbroken and dejected and more than a little drunk, confessing that it's over, that Miranda has finally made good on her threats and left him - Adam can't help feeling just a little bit of relief, that it's over and Blake can move on; and... and hope, because... because maybe now there's a chance...

Hope grows during the weeks that follow, as Blake and Adam grow closer than ever, Adam providing the support Blake needs to get through the heartbreak and find his way back to himself. They spend more and more time together, and Adam starts to feel like maybe something's finally blooming between them, after all this time.

Colors are a little more vibrant, the pleasure of their shared time together is acutely sweet and strong, and Adam feels like he's floating every moment he's the center of Blake's focused attention.

He comes crashing back down to earth with agonizing impact, the first time Blake walks onto the set, smiling that warm, affectionate smile at him, heading right toward him... and hand in hand with Gwen.

Any, Any, I wish I were a white crayon, that way no one could use me.

BBC Sherlock (young) Sherlock

[anotherfngrl.livejournal.com]

When he was in grade 2, Sherlock's teacher gave them a writing assignment. "If you were a crayon, what color would you be, and why?"

Sherlock thought about the answer for a long time. He could be blue, he thought. Calm, peaceful, attractive- the color of spending the afternoon swimming or staying up to look at the stars. Blue is a nice color. Everyone likes blue.

He could be yellow: bright, attention grabbing, always happy. He could be the color of sunshine, playing with his classmates and enjoying life, carefree. The yellow crayon would be fun, running about playing tag on the playground or sitting with a large group of friends at lunch. Yellow draws people in- yellow would never be alone.

Tim walks by, 'accidentally' kicking his desk and knocking him out of his musings. He could be black, he thinks then. Not playful or fun, but serious. No one particularly likes the black crayon, but they need it anyway. Black never stays in the box, alone and unused. If he were the black crayon, he would be the darkest- the strongest color. No crayon except the black one can completely cover up another color, hiding it forever. Sherlock thinks it would be nice to be the black crayon.

Sherlock has a large box of crayons, so he looks through it, searching for inspiration. The silver crayon stands out to him immediately. It's the only metallic one in the box. It's clearly different, but in a good way. It outshines the rest. Silver may be different, but it's attractive, desirable. Rare and unique as it is, everyone would be impressed with the silver crayon.

But, Sherlock realizes, the teacher didn't ask what color crayon they wanted to be. She asked what color they are. Sherlock isn't the blue one, liked by everyone. He's not yellow, either, always happy and surrounded by friends. He isn't the black crayon, strong enough to overcome whatever his classmates throw at him. And he may be different, unique and alone, but he's not impressive and interesting, like the silver.

No, if Sherlock is a crayon, he's the white one. He's different from the others- he isn't made for the same sorts of things. He knows he has a purpose, otherwise he wouldn't exist. But he hasn't found it yet. For now, he just fades into the background. So he sits in the box alone while the other crayons make beautiful pictures, wishing he could join in but knowing there's no place for him. At least if he's the white crayon, no one can use him, he thinks. But sometimes he would trade being a tool- the student others come to for answers to the homework, for example- for being needed and wanted to fulfill his purpose.

"I would be green," Sherlock writes. "Because it's my favorite color. I would be the color of grass and my favorite kind of apples." It's a lie and it doesn't say anything, but the teacher puts a sticker on the page when she grades it anyway.
