Monday - Read a Book

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Good morning! It's evil_little_dog here, filling in. I hope you enjoy the prompts this week!

Today's theme is Book Titles. Each prompt should be the title of a book (plays are allowed!).

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...

Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward/Winry, The Silver Metal Lover
Fullmetal Alchemist, Ling(+Ran Fan+Fuu)+The Risembool Trio, Stranger in a Strange Land
Peter Pan, Peter+/Wendy, The Folk of the Air

Fill: "A Dog's Purpose"

The corner of his mouth pulled down as Frasier observed Eddie. The little dog lay on his back, wriggling back and forth on the couch, tossing the cushions on the floor as he kicked his feet. “Eddie,” Frasier intoned.

The dog snorted and squirmed some more, half-swimming down the couch on his side, his tail wagging so fast, it blurred.

“Eddie!”

Reaching the arm of the couch, unable to go any farther, Eddie rolled onto his stomach, his legs under him like a coiled spring. His tail still vibrated, and his eyebrows went in all different directions from rubbing his face on the couch.

“Get off the couch!” Frasier pointed at the floor.

Eddie barked, rolled onto his back, and scrubbed himself back to the other end of the couch.

“Oh, for – Dad! Dad, would you control your dog?”

Martin shook the newspaper until it rattled. “He’s bored. Give him something to do, and he’ll get off the couch.”

“Do?” Frasier flung a dramatic hand at the dog rooting in the remaining pillows. “Does this dog have an actual purpose?”

“Of course he does! He keeps me company. He makes me happy.” Martin scowled at Frasier over the top of his paper. “He’s a good dog, and you know it.”

“He’s obsessive,” Frasier sniffed.

“Like that doesn’t run in the family,” Martin muttered.

“I heard that! And I am not related to a dog!”

Martin huffed. “Oh, please. Eddie’s as much a part of the family is Daphne is. He’s more a part of this family than Maris!” Hesitating, he said, “Don’t tell Niles I said that!”

Frasier waved it off; it went without saying that he’d honor that request. “Dad, dogs are pets. They’re not family.”

“Aw, Fras, don’t be like that.” Martin folded the newspaper, setting it aside. “Eddie really is family. Aren’t you, boy?”

Eddie popped halfway out of where he’d buried himself in the cushions and barked.

“See? He agrees with me!”

Sighing, Frasier pinched the bridge of his nose, sure he’d be developing a headache over this. “All right, he’s family, but he’s not my brother! I’ve already got one neurotic sibling, I am not accepting another.” He leaned over the couch, glaring at Eddie. “And you.” He pointed a finger at the dog. “If anyone asks, you’re adopted!”

Oh crap the moment I saw this prompt I already had the whole thing in my head shouting at me 'write me! write me!' and I just love you so much for putting this one out there for me to find~
There's your fic (rated R, for safety):
__________________________________
“Ugh – no –just move your leg over there – “
“Ed, will you just tell me what you’re trying to do so I can help you and we can get this over with?”
Roy knew his voice came out too rough and snarky, but this had been going on for a while now. He was excited, at first; he considered himself adventurous and innovative, especially in situations like this, but this was way over the top. He had no idea what Ed was trying to do but he was pretty sure it wasn’t even physically possible.
“No – I said move your goddamned leg over there, if you just did as I told you it wouldn’t be so difficult!”
Roy groaned, annoyed and frustrated. “Where?”
“There – oh crap are you like retarded? Here – “ Ed moved, bending to reach Roy’s leg. The mismatching hands held him, and he felt him trying to pull his leg, and he tried to let him, he really did – until his muscles started complaining, and then Ed kept pulling a little farther and was twisting his leg in an awkward way that did more than just stretch him a little too much and it hurt. He let out a yelp and immediately pulled his leg back.
“Ouch! That hurt!”
“If you tried a little bit harder then maybe – “
“No, Ed, I could be a little bit harder if you stopped for a minute, fuck, what are you trying to do?! Break my tendon?!”
“NO!” The younger alchemist’s voice was just as frustrated as Roy felt. He was startled when he felt Ed’s weight leaving him and for a moment he stopped concentrating on the pain in his muscle and looked up. “I was just – I just wanted to try something new… I’m sorry, alright? I just found this book in your study –“
“Book?” Now Roy was a little confused. What exactly was Ed talking about? What did a book he found had anything to do with what they were doing – or trying to do, at least – here?
“Yeah. Uh… I think it was… ‘Kama Sutra’ or something like that? Fuck I don’t know it was about sex and I thought… you have so much more experience than me and I was afraid I was boring you and that you’ll get tired of me and– “
Roy’s anger was all swept away by that little confession that was said in a shaky kind of voice that pierced straight through the man’s heart. He blinked once, and then settled his eyes on Ed. He was sitting, his knees up and his arms around them and his head rested on top, facing the other way. He saw the fall of blond hair on well built, even if scarred, naked shoulders and felt bad for the way he acted. Apparently, this nonsense was a real issue for his lover.
He sat up, closing the distance and wrapping his own arms around Ed, gently tracing the place where his automail connected to his shoulder. “Get tired of you?” He asked, and the tone of disbelief was more than just audible. “Ed,” he continued, and moved to sit behind the younger man, still holding him in his arms. “I’ll never get tired of you.” He drew a little closer, leaning in to kiss his neck. “You’re exciting,” he moved to kiss his earlobe, “and special,” he now kissed his jaw line, “and incredibly sexy. You’ll never bore me. You annoy me too much, and, seriously, you’re too insane for us to need any kind of book about sex to make it more interesting.”
“Asshole.” But Roy could feel the muscles in his lover’s face moving as he smiled as well as hear it in his voice despite the insult. “You promise?” He felt him relaxing in his hold, not yet as calm as he wanted him to be, but it was a progress.
Roy smiled, and kissed his jaw again. “Of course I promise. I love you. Now can we please finish what we started… traditionally?”
Ed turned his face to look at him, an amused spark in his eyes. “Fucker, that’s all you care about?”
“When you look like that and tease me for so long, yeah. Now, would you lie on your back and let me show you how much you excite me.”
Ed did as he was told, unfolding himself and turning, his arms pulling Roy down with him as he leaned backwards on the bed. A devilish smirk adorned his face, and it was the sexiest thing Roy had ever seen.
