Welcome, boys and girls, to your first Friday Free For All. It's been another fabulous week - the turn out each day seems to be better and better!

Let's keep the ball rolling, shall we? Anything goes today, of course - any fandom or crossover, any pairing or grouping, any prompt.

Please help the code monkeys maintain their sanity and remember to format your prompts:
For a single fandom: Fandom, Pairing, Prompt
Example: Supernatural, Sam/Dean, cursed handcuff

For a crossover: Fandom/Fandom, Pairing, Prompt
Example: Burn Notice/Leverage, Eliot/Michael, old friends

And if nothing's jumping up and catching your attention, feel free to head on over to our Lonely Prompts section.

So, go forth and prompt! Write! And I have a happy Friday!

Current Mood: amused

First Being Human fic, so I hope this works! *is nervous*

Everyone has scars. Some are just a little more noticeable than others.

George has a perfectly placed bite-mark on the right side of his neck. It looks so delicate – in fact, it’s almost invisible unless you know it’s there and you’re actually looking for it. George notices it every time he looks in the mirror.

Mitchell has scratch-marks on his back, clawed into the skin over his shoulder blades. Four on each side, drawn down and outwards like some artist’s impression of wings. He chose to keep those, consciously refused to let his body heal at its normal rate in that area until the slices through skin and tissue and muscle had knitted together as scars.

When they’re in bed together, George props himself up and he’ll stroke the tips of his fingers oh-so-softly down the scars on Mitchell’s back, words of apology all ready to fall from his mouth. Mitchell will roll over and reach up, first laying his fingers against George’s mouth to silence the words before they’re even spoken, and then his hand will slide down and come to rest at the side of George’s neck, the pad of his thumb covering the marks he put there with his teeth.

Then George leans down and covers Mitchell’s lips with his mouth, and rolls them until Mitchell is lying on top of him, and their scars will be forgotten.

Until the next time George remembers and feels the guilt start to rise. Mitchell would worry about it, but he knows he’ll be there to stop it – he can’t imagine not being there ever again.

That is so incredibly sweet - and so IC for both of them. Thank you so much for writing it for me! (and I'm watching the new episode tonight! I'm a bit nervous about it, to be honest!)

You might be...disappointed. Um. It's on bbciplayer and...well, they've changed the main cast, 'cept for George. Among other things. *pout*

Yeah, me and my flatmate are going to watch it tonight. I'd heard about the recasting. I'll miss the old Annie and Mitchell so much! How did you think the new ones compared?

The new Mitchell comes across as a bit...dodgy. Well, more dodgy than just being a vampire. And he doesn't wear a hat. (<----is too picky for her own good!) I suppose the new Annie's alright - a bit more mental than the last one but okay. It's just not the same! *le sob*

I have to give 'em some credit, though. At least Mitchell still really obviously cares about George! *shrugs* It's a start.

-nods- Exactly. I keep reminding myself that in the original pilot of Buffy they had a different actress playing Willow - recasting definitely worked there! I'm sure we'll warm up to the newbies eventually. The pilot was so good that it would have to be so hard to live up to our expectations.
