comment_ficGreetings all and welcome to Tuesday. I'm ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sharpiesgal and I'm sorry for the late posting. Today's theme is Commitment.
Commitment is define as 1) to do, perform or perpetrate, 2) to consign; entrust, 3) to place in confinement or custody or 4) to pledge or obligate oneself.
Very broad definition I know, but one you can have fun with.
As per usual there are a few Rules we all need to abide by:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts from one fandom at a time.
If your prompt is filled you may post another prompt.
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
And just to get the ball rolling, some starter prompts:
NCIS, Tony/Ziva, engagement party
Hawaii 5-0, Steve/Danny, moving in together
Elementary, Holmes + Watson, forced to return to rehab

"Yeah with the rule, not rules. And I've seen what you can do to the house when left to your own devices," Steve waved off the protest Danny was about to make, "Just clean up after yourself."
"That's it?"
"That's it," Steve said with a shrug then grabbed Danny and pulled him close. "I love you Danno, but I don't love your messes."

Date: 2012-10-24 08:31 am (UTC)Little Peter was so clever, in the end. Maybe that was why Sirius laughed. He had never expected cleverness of Peter. That had always been for James and Remus and himself.
It occurs to him that Mother might be proud of him, now. His mouth twists into a disgusted snarl at the thought. He has not wanted Mother's approval since a ragged old hat sat on his head and shouted, "Gryffindor!"
It is what he has told himself since the morning after that first night spent with nausea crawling inside him. He knew that Mother would be disdainful, and even colder than she had ever been before, and he told himself that it does not matter, that he does not care and never did.
That is what he told himself until he believed it with everything he had. He still believes it, because this is one memory that the dementors will not take.
He's numb all over, but he still feels it when the dementors draw close again. "I'm innocent," he rasps past cracked, sluggishly bleeding lips. "I'm innocentinnocentinnocent..."
It's something to focus one, or to obsess over. It's something to keep him sane, or to drive him mad. Maybe it will do both. Stranger things have been done to minds in Azkaban.
He does not know how long he has been here. It might have been months or decades, although he thinks the latter more likely. He has for a long time now. He thinks it's a long time, at least.
It might have been centuries or millennia, although he supposes that is unlikely. Minister Fudge visited recently, didn't he, or was it not so recent?
He thinks he must be losing his mind, even with the dog-self to shield him from the worst of it. It is no wonder that his cousin across the way is such a raving lunatic. Maybe he is too, but with a bit less raving.
Much later, or possibly a little later, Cornelius Fudge visits Azkaban, and Sirius sees a rat on a boy's shoulder in a black and white newspaper photograph. His chest heaves and his eyes are wild; he knows this rat.
He asks for the newspaper - for the crossword, dear sir, and his own words almost make him giggle - and the Minister gives it to him. Finally, he has the motivation to leave Azkaban.
It is not long at all before he slips away into the night, takes off over the vast ocean in a small boat.
He's not sure when he reaches land. All he knows is that he awakens in the care of two men only a little less wild-looking than he. They don't have anything to do with society, they say. He was half-dead when they found him, they say.
"I have been for a while," he answers, his voice quiet and scratchy from seldom and ill use.
"There's something I have to do," he says, and he leaves.
There is something he has to do. Just as surely as he must breathe, just as surely as he must exist, he must kill Peter Pettigrew. It is the only way to keep Harry, James' little son, safe and alive.
He might even enjoy it, killing Peter Pettigrew. He's pretty sure that he'll enjoy it, because right now his heart is pounding and his pulse is jumping with the expectation. There is a roaring in his ears, and maybe it's the waves or cars or maybe it's something else. Maybe it's inside.
Maybe he should make it last, when he kills Peter Pettigrew. He's never used the Cruciatus Curse before, but he thinks he could now.
Maybe he'll think of something better than Cruciatus, before he gets to Peter. There are just so many possibilities...

Date: 2012-10-24 12:25 am (UTC)Bill stood in her path, his arms folded. “You’re going,” he said, and it wasn’t a question.
She took a breath. “It’s my job, Bill.”
“No, it’s an obsession.” He shook his head slightly, disbelievingly. “I can’t believe you’re still doing this. You’re a doctor. You shouldn’t be going around chasing after little green men with him.”
“Bill, I appreciate the concern, I really do,” Dana said, trying to keep from sounding frustrated and feeling that she failed miserably. “But the X-Files give me something that being a doctor can not at this point in my life.”
“Really?” Bill narrowed his eyes. “What is that, Dana?”
She sucked on the inside of her cheek. “Stability.” When he scoffed, she went on. “Really, Bill. Even though I’m investigating the cases no one else wants, the unexplainable, the inexplicable, there is more to it than just the little green men.”
“So, what is it offering you?”
Dana stepped past him, grabbing her bag and coat. “A challenge I can sink my teeth into.”
