Tuesday: dialogue only
Jan. 28th, 2014 01:15 amHello all!
hematitebadger again, and today I want you to close your eyes and listen, because our theme is Dialogue Only. Prompts can cover any subject, but fills must consist only of dialogue. And maybe a sound effect or two, if you're feeling adventurous. We await with open ears!
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...
+ Chuck, Sarah +/ Casey, "What do you actually do in your free time, Walker?"
+ Haven, Duke +/ Nathan, apologies
+ New Tricks, Gerry + Sandra, unwinnable arguments
Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Visit the lonely prompt archive and brighten someone’s day. For more recent prompts to write, you can also use LJ’s advanced search options to limit keyword results to only comments in this community.

"You didn't say duck! You didn't say anything!"
"I thought you'd seen it!"
"I'm not made of eyes!"
"Hey, I told you that line."
"... Just shut up and get off me."
"Hey, since we've avoided death ..."
"I've avoided death."
"Yeah yeah, you wanna do something?"
"Like what?"
"I dunno. Pub?"

Date: 2014-01-28 10:38 am (UTC)Fill: Leverage, "Domestication"
Date: 2014-01-28 11:07 pm (UTC)“I what?”
“Well, look at you, making meals, having a home, with your friends.”
“That’s not domestication.”
“You don’t have to get shirty about it.”
“Shirty? Shirty? Who talks that way?”
“See? You’re getting shirty.”
“I am not getting shirty. I’m getting annoyed.”
“Annoyed, shirty, same thing.”
“I don’t think so.”
“Are you the one who can pass for nearly any level of European society? Hmm? Not to mention the British isles, which has its own hierarchy? No? I thought not. And what’s that sneer for?”
“You. You’re getting shirty.”
“Well, you’re domesticated!”
“Am not!”
“And I’m not going to waste any more time arguing with you about this, when I can see it’s true – look at you, bringing out hors d’oeuvres and plated foods.”
“And pie!”
“Yes, and pie! Thank you, Parker.”
“That does not mean I’m domesticated!”
“You put the seat down after you pee.”
“Parker’s right. You’re domesticated if you put the seat down.”
Eliot’s response was absolutely unprintable.

Date: 2014-01-29 05:44 am (UTC)"You realize that isn't precisely true, Erik."
"Close enough for these simpletons. Tea?"
"Yes, please. And a private audience, if you would."
"You! Bring tea. Everyone else, leave. Make yourselves useful. Or, at the very least, unobtrusive."
"Always a way with words, I see."
"I could easily say the same about you."
"Touché."
"So allow me to guess the reason behind your visit. It's -- what do the young people call it? Ah, yes. -- Spring Break at the Xavier School. The children are away. The mansion is too quiet. A perfect opportunity to invade your rival's hideaway."
"You've found me out."
"I thought as much. Milk?"
"Yes, please."
"I'd offer you cucumber sandwiches, but we're fresh out, I'm afraid."
"No cucumbers in the market this morning?"
"Not even for ready money."
"Just tea is fine. Superb, actually. Thank you, Erik."
"I learned young how to make almost anything feel like a feast."
"Indeed."
"So, Charles, now that you have my complete and undivided attention, to what do I owe the pleasure?"
"For today, I would say that pleasure is the operative word, actually. As in both business and--"
"Oh, is it now? Business and pleasure."
"Love and war."
"Fair. So which is which?"
"If I gave the answer away so easily, things would get boring now, wouldn't they?"
"I'll concede that point. For now. But only because you're not here to assassinate me."
"Well, there is a lot of room in a relationship between boring and trying to kill you."

"Bones. Fire."
"God damn cocky..."
"What are you mumbling about?"
"Nothing."
"Fine. Ouch god damit. What just bit me?"
"What?"
"Some bug bit me?"
"Let me see?"
"It's nothing. Just finish the fire so we can eat."
"Quit being an infant and let me see."
"Fine."
"I don't like how this is swelling. You could be having an allergic reaction."
"It's nothing."
"It's not nothing it's swelling in the time we are arguing about it. I have a hypospray for that."
"You and your damn hyposprays. You take entirely too much pleasure and jabbing me with those damn things."
"it's because you are such a delightful patient."
"Sarcasm Bones. It isn't you."
"It is exactly me. I'm a sarcastic bastard. Didn't know know that."
"Ouch damit Bones. You weren't in the least bit gentle."
"No I wasn't. And if you keep bitching I will find another hypospray to jab you with to shut you up."
"As if you could."
"You have to sleep sometime Jim. Just remember that when you start to complain about my medical cures. Knowing you, I'm fairly certain that I will have to give you more than your fair share of hypos over our career."

"What?"
"I mean I know it wasn't planned but...surprise!"
"What?"
"Alright sweetheart you're gonna have to say something else."
"Baby?"
"That's right were gonna have a baby."
"Baby?"
"Well I guess that's an improvement from what. I just hope you can break out of this trance before both our parents get here for Christmas dinner."
"What? Having a baby?"
"Getting better. You know what you can stay up here in the bathroom and I'll finish setting up."
