Tuesday: Steampunk

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

Hello, everyone. I’m chasingtides and today's theme is Steampunk. Prompts can be any fandom, any character, any pairing (or lack thereof).

The rules still haven't changed:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
No spoilers in prompts.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space.

Prompts should be formatted as follows:
Fandom, Character+/Character, Prompt

Some examples to get the ball rolling...
Avengers, Tony Stark, Tony Stark's mechanical heart freaks some people out.
Leverage, Hardison+/Eliot, Eliot watches the steam engineer's back.
Supernatural, Sam+Dean, Things were going great until Sam geeked out over Jules Verne.

Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Visit the lonely prompt archive and brighten someone’s day.

Have fun and happy Friday!

Well, um, this prompt is like the whole Queen & Hawkheart AU (http://archiveofourown.org/series/183977), but I was focusing on the queen acting like a queen to the people (who love her) and it seemed to fit.

And it's longer than a comment.

Excerpt:
“It is, perhaps, another reason why you do not want to take the kingdom from her. She manages to lead with grace and wisdom,” Phillip said, watching as the queen interacted with a small girl from the outer villages. The girl smiled through tears, started to courtesy, and then threw herself at the queen instead, hugging her.

Hawkeye waited for the woman's response to the girl's actions. She smiled, combed back the child's hair, and the girl bounced away happily, going to her mother and taking the woman's hand. With tears in her eyes, the mother picked her up and smiled back at the queen before leaving the court.

“Strange, considering that she is a killer and was never trained for the role.”

Oops, sorry. This isn't steampunk. I have to start remembering to check themes before I write. It's Medieval AU instead.
