So, here we are. May 1st. Where has the year gone?
But, more importantly than that, it's Friday. Which can mean only one thing... It's time for FRIDAY FREE FOR ALL!!
Yup, you got it. Anything and everything goes. Any fandom, any pairing, any crossover, any prompt.
Just make sure to be nice to this codellama and her fellow codemonkeys by leaving your prompts in the proper format
For a single fandom: Fandom, Pairing, Prompt
Example: RPS, Chris/Steve, "I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you"
For a crossover: Fandom/Fandom, Pairing, Prompt
Example: The A-Team/Leverage, team centric, 'If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire...'
Don't forget that we have a lot of lonely prompts, so if you're not being inspired today, you can always adopt one of those

Date: 2009-05-01 03:46 pm (UTC)Kaylee saved every coin she could for the one time a year Serenity set down on Rilous Prime. Inara liked the companion shops, Zoe liked the dresses, the men folk liked the food, but Kaylee? She only liked one thing here.
Him.
Getting an hour of any companion’s time was expensive, but for reasons they never spoke of, he always took whatever she had and gave her as long as he could. Sometimes if she had the chance to wave him before she landed he’d rearrange his schedule just for her.
But this time was different, personal, and Christian was tired of denying his own heart. Somehow Kaylee had wormed her way into the only part of him Christian refused to share with anyone else. With her sunshine smile and genuine laugh, and the way there was always a smear of engine grease just there on her skin, how could he be expected to resist her? She wasn’t perfumed and well dressed, she came to him as simply herself and allowed him to be simply himself in return. Once a year for the last four years having her in his bed had been a godsend – but now he wasn’t sure it was enough, that it would ever, could ever be enough.
“Kaylee?” He hated to wake her
“Christian?” She murmured, pushing her tangled hair out of her eyes.
Beautiful eyes.
“It’s time.”
Christian watched the bright light in her eyes dim, watched the smile he liked to believe she wore just for him sag a little at the edges. This was the part she hated more than anything, the leaving.
“Okay.”
Kaylee slid from the bed with more speed than grace, gathering up her discarded garments and tugging them back on like armour. This time tomorrow she would be half-way to somewhere else, and there would be someone else warming her side of his bed. Her side. Somewhere along the line she had let herself believe there was anything more to their arrangement than a little money and a lot of pity.
Her had was on the door before he spoke again, startling her with how close he was. A long chain dropped over her head, nestling a turquoise stone between her breasts.
“What’s this?” She asked wide eyed and hopeful.
“Something to remember me by, so that even when you’re a billion miles away, I’m still right here beside you.”
“Oh Christian!” Kaylee threw her arms around him, pulling him down for one last kiss and then she was gone.
People liked to believe that companions were incapable of feeling love, made them feel better about being with someone who probably didn’t feel for them one way or another, but that was the cruellest of lies.
A companion can love, they’re just not allowed to.
