Friday: "Mine!"
Feb. 21st, 2014 10:57 amHey, guys! I'm
dreamsofspike and this is my first week guest-hosting! And I am actually on time today! So far so good! :P So let's get started with today's prompt...
Today's theme is "MINE!".
Maybe two characters are fighting over something they both think belongs to only them. Maybe someone is protective/possessive of someone else. It can be dark... jealousy, stalking... or sweet and sappy, someone becoming surprisingly protective when someone they love is in danger... or anywhere in between! Any interpretation on the word that strikes your fancy! :)
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
Here are some examples to get the ball rolling! :)
Supernatural, Dean/Castiel, Someone hurts Cas. Dean becomes the scariest thing in the room.
Grimm, Nick/Monroe, mating claim
White Collar, Peter/Neal, Neal kinda likes belonging to Peter.

Date: 2014-02-22 04:41 am (UTC)He's seen Nick really pissed. He's seen Nick scared. Monroe's been at Nick's side when other wessen have woged and Nick's gone Grimm in response. It's not all that impressive, normally - a little darkening of the shadows underneath Nick's eyes... Nick's pupils kind of dilate, and it's like light gets sucked along the angles of Nick's face.
He doesn't look like a nice guy to have a conversation with, in other words, but he's not - like - blood curdlingly scary either. Nick's reputation is the scary thing. Just seeing him Grimm out, and knowing what he's doing, is enough to make most wessen pee their pants.
But when Nick woges for real, it's unlike anything Monroe's ever seen before.
It's not what you can see, really, when you look at him that's so terrifying; it's what you can't.
His eyes are pits of black in the center of a human but severe face. You can't look directly at him. It's like there's something - something so instinctual and necessary that it's involuntary - that shuts down everything but 'fight' or 'flight' in his presence.
To be honest, in the moment that Nick loses his shit, Monroe's not sure he isn't more frightened by his boyfriend than by the ogres who beat Monroe up.
That moment passes, and Nick is Nick again by the time their ogres have been dealt with.
Monroe can put what he's seen at the back of his brain, where a lot of things he doesn't quite know what to do with wait.
Nick isn't the fairytale monster Monroe's folks used to tell him and his brothers stories about when they were kids. At least - he's not just that.
He's the guy who tends Monroe's wounds, right after, with hands so gentle it's hard to believe they've ever harmed a fly - much less killed an entire clan of ogres.
Nick's the one whose wild eyes only really quiet after Monroe tells him, "It's okay... Nick! I'm okay! It's okay now..." and kisses him about a dozen times.
And if witnesses look at Nick like he's death and judgement, all wrapped up together with a whole lot of wrath-
Well. Monroe is a Blutbad, after all - refrormed or not. There's something really hot about being the one thing his benevolent Grimm will go batshit crazy for.

Date: 2014-02-22 01:48 pm (UTC)Clinton can't even blame him when they bust into Meyerton's place and Meyerton holds a knife up to Neal's throat.
There's something very wrong about Neal hanging by his wrists, shirt cut open, the skin of his ribs red and bruising already. His lip's bloody and beginning to swell. He'll have a black eye by tomorrow.
Neal may have been a criminal, but he's never been one of the "bad guys". He doesn't use violence. It seems unfair that he should become the victim of violence while trying to help them stop it.
More than that, it seems unnatural. To see Neal, always so smooth and cool and collected... grimacing in pain and breathing unevenly.
Clinton sort of feels like laying into Meyerton himself.
But Peter-
"FBI! Put the knife down!" Diana yells, in a tone that sounds the way Clinton feels.
She's taken up position on one side of Meyerton; Clinton takes the other. Peter walks up between them, voice low, gun steady. His face is something Clinton wouldn't want to see from the wrong side of a loaded weapon.
"Cut him, Meyerton, and you won't-"
"Oh, I'm going to cut him alright. If you don't back off." Meyerton sneers. Clinton thinks Peter might pop a blood vessel. His face strains with rage as Meyerton taunts, "Let's see how your pretty little snitch sings with my knife sticking out of his-"
Then Meyerton shifts just that one inch too far to the left. Peter takes the shot.
Meyerton screams as Peter's round hits him in the shoulder, then there are agents swarming the guy and Neal.
They clear a path when Peter pushes through them, without question.
He goes straight to Neal, who's crying out softly as an agent cuts his wrists free. Clinton can see that they're chafed bloody from where he stands.
Neal only seems to see Peter.
"Just in time. I was beginning to think you were just going to let Meyerton have me," Neal is gamely teasing when Peter starts towards him. Then his grin fades, and his eyes fill with surprise and concern as Peter gets closer. "Peter... Peter, I'm fine. I knew you'd-"
Peter wraps his arms around Neal and hugs him, right in the middle of about a half dozen agents.
Diana's escorting Meyerton out of the room. Clinton opens his mouth to tell the rest of their team to give Agent Burke some space, but realizes that no one's so much as looking Peter's way.
Peter did cut an impressive figure, shooting Meyerton down without even slowing his stride as he charged in looking for Neal. Then not even sparing a glance in the other man's direction.
Clinton smirks.
It may be a little disturbing that his badass boss is only at his most badass when defending the kid he'd been working on bringing to justice before Clinton was even an agent, but it's pretty cool, too, too see it in action.

Tony bit his lip. "It'll be tricky. There's a lot of components we'd need to kludge together." He aimed for his most casual tone of voice. "We'd need some help. From, you know, a deity, or a demigod. Maybe, a Norse one--"
Jane lowered the tablet. "What kind of help."
"Nothing much. Seriously, it would only take a second."

Date: 2014-02-22 03:59 pm (UTC)John just knows that he thinks about Matt and his little girl and he thinks about breaking things. And not just because his little girl deserves better than any guy could give her. Matt's kind of an idiot sometimes, but he's also a genius. He's funny (when he's not overdoing it), he's brave, and he's good.
Mostly, when John thinks about Matt dating his daughter, he feels like he's missing a bus. Last one out of the station. John's never even been into guys before, but something about this kid-
If he became John's son-in-law, that'd be so wrong. Men are not supposed to lust after their sons-in-law.
So John starts monopolizing Matty's time, and he knows the kid's seen through him when he tosses down the game controller John's just placed in his hands before John's even figured out the proper way to hold his own.
"Okay. Enough's enough, man."
John's stomach sinks, but he maintains a game face.
"I mean, I love all this extra time we've been spending together...," Matt says, looking upset, which almost tears through John's casual facade. He's been worried about the kid getting freaked out or disgusted - or, worse, morbidly amused - and pitying him. He hadn't thought Matt would get all hurt about it. "But you hate this shit!" Matt waves his controller around.
John sets the other one down. There's no use lying now. "I do hate this shit."
"So what gives! I'm all for you and me 'hanging out'... But I have noticed that your plans and Lucy's plans- They always conflict! Is this, like, subtlety? Is this you being subtle? 'Cause if you really don't want me dating your daughter, then just say-"
"I don't want you dating my daughter."
Matt sags like John's punched the wind out of him.
Shit. John sighs. "Matt-"
"No! No, I get it. I'm good enough to be your buddy, but not your daughter's boyfriend."
"I didn't say that-"
"We can 'hang out'..." Kid even uses air quotes. John hates those things. "But anything more- Anything beyond the realm of goofy sidekick-"
"You're not a fucking sidekick, alright?" John shouts. "Let me get a goddamned word in!"
Matt does. With this condescending look on his face - like he knows exactly what John's going to tell him, and exactly how he's going to tell it - that still doesn't quite manage to hide all of his disappointment and unhappiness.
"I don't want you dating Lucy..."
"Because-"
"Because of this, dipshit!"
John grabs Matt by the face, gets to see the kid's eyes go wide like he thinks John's about to punch him, and then kisses the guy for all he's worth.
As it always does, John's anger fades, and left in its place are nerves John doesn't usually acknowledge.
He doesn't usually go around kissing twenty-something-year-old computer whizzes, either, so-
John pulls back. Matt stares. Right before John thinks he's just fucked up beyond any hope of a recovery, Matty lights up like a fucking lightbulb.
"Oh," he says, oh-so-intelligently.
John snorts, but he's smiling too.
"Yeah, oh."
"I didn't think you-"
"Surprised the shit out of me, too."
Maybe it's selfish for John to want Matt all to himself, but if Lucy'd had time to get attached to the kid, John wouldn't even consider it - and Matt sure doesn't look like he minds John being a little selfish.
"Why didn't you say something before?" Matt asks.
"You wanna talk more about it now? Or you wanna get over here and let me kiss you again?"
Like John's said:
Kid's a genius.

Phil obviously wanted to be sure he was really dead before he loses the car. Smart man.
