Thursday: On Vacation

My last day... *pout* I shall have to come up with some crazy themes and do this again!

Today's theme is On Vacation.

After yesterday's insanity, our characters really need a break. What do they do to get away from their normal lives?

Please think about our wonderful codemonkeys and use the correct format (the second is for crossovers).

Fandom, Pairing, Prompt
Fandom1/Fandom2, Pairing, Prompt

Firefly, River, Building sand-castles on the beach
Torchwood/Heroes, Jack/Ianto/Gabriel, A broken stopwatch spoils half their vacation plans

Please remember not to post more than 5 prompts in a row and more than 3 prompts per fandom. If one or more of your prompts are answered, you can prompt again later in the day.

If you don't see anything you like, you can always Adopt a Lonely Prompt.

Dollhouse, Adelle/Claire, "Come with me?" "Always."

:happy sighs: So very pretty...

“Humans suffer from it,” Castiel murmured, his back to the other man.

Dean, standing back and breathing on his hands to keep warm, glanced up at the angel’s words. “Suffer from what? Shit, Cas, it’s freezing. Why the hell did you bring me here?”

The angel didn’t answer at first, and Dean cautiously moved forward. “Cas?” he said quietly, shoving his hands into his pockets. He glanced past the angel, and his face turned incredibly white – the sea crashed against the cliff they were standing on. “Shit!”

“Humans. You’re all just hedonistic animals. Beasts, trying to tempt us to fall.”

“That’s not true,” Dean snapped. “Alright, maybe it was true for me, once. But not now.”

“Things are too important for the pleasure of skin.”

“How would you know? Have you ever…”

Castiel turned at that, his gaze finding Dean’s eyes: there was none of the usual warmth there, just angry, inhuman ice. “I am not Anna,” he spat.

The hunter blinked at the vehemence of the angel’s words; and when his eyes opened again, he was alone. “Stranded again. Damn it.”

Arf, first Spn fic.

Dollhouse, Adelle/Claire, "I've always wanted to see snow."

Schuldig has to know that she's still alive. He's in Nagi's head often enough that missing the thoughts of Tot would impossible. But he's never ratted Nagi out to Crawford to explain where he goes on nice afternoons when Schwarz has nothing to do. Their plans have been made and all there's left to do is wait for their chance to break away from Eszett once and for all.

He meets Tot in a park, on a weekend where there are girls out dressed in their lolita costumes and she'll blend into the crowd easier. Nagi always speaks with her quietly, as if he still can't believe she's alive even after his power saved her life. He takes her hand, makes the wind dance to see her smile, and one day Nagi admits that he wants to leave Schwarz behind as well. He can't leave yet, but he will one day and they will find their own path and he will get revenge on the world in a different way.

Their short, secret meeting always end with a kiss. Nagi's getting used to it and doesn't blush any more. And when he returns, Schuldig always smirks, but says nothing.

Heroes, Elle & little!Noah, sandy beaches

Dollhouse, Adelle/Claire, Adelle uses a work conference to trick Claire into taking a vacation with her.

Death Note, Light/Misa, what the paparazzi misses

Bones, Angela/Brennan, "Work isn't all there is."

Heroes, Matt/Mohinder & Molly, "Can we go to Disneyworld?"

“Grandmummy wants to eat you,” Drusilla murmured, stroking the boy’s cheek. The words penetrated through his enthralled mind, and he lifted his eyes to hers in shock.

“You mean meet me?” he managed to say before the vampire’s thrall washed back over him. She laughed and kissed his forehead – he was barely ten years old, too young to be sleeping on the streets; and yet, that was where she had found him.

“No, little dovie-dove, spider-webs can’t get you out of this. Grandmummy wants to eat you.” She opened the door of the hotel room and shoved the child into a blonde woman’s arms. “Isn’t that right, Grandmummy?”

The other vampire didn’t answer: she was already biting into the boy’s throat and drinking. When she had finished, she pushed the corpse away and wiped her lips on the back of her hand – “Yes, Dru,” she purred. “That’s exactly right.”

Supernatural, Sam/Ruby, snow.

After Alpha’s second attack, Claire was distant. She worked silently, ignored the barbs from Topher’s that she normally would have responded to, and avoided Adelle. The older woman seemed to be the only one that noticed how troubled Claire was, the only one that wanted to help her, and the only one that Claire seemed set on evading.

She felt worried for the younger woman, for more reasons than one, and as Adelle passed Claire’s office one morning, she noticed the door was wide open. She hesitantly moved forward, peering inside, and nearly smiled when she saw Claire at her desk looking more relaxed than she had in months. “Do you need time off?” Adelle asked after a moment, her voice soft.

Claire looked up from the folder in her hands and found Adelle leaning against the doorway with her arms crossed over her chest. “Time off?” Claire repeated, unsure of where the conversation was going.

“Maybe if you went away, just for a little while, it would help.” Adelle moved further into the office and continued until she was standing next to the younger woman. She let her arms fall and rested her hand on Claire’s shoulder.

“I’d prefer to stay here.” Claire kept her eyes trained on her desk, staring at nothing in particular but not wanting to meet the older woman’s gaze. “But thank you.”

Adelle bent down and placed one hand on Claire’s knee while the other moved up to gently cup her cheek. “I’ll go with you. I don’t want you to be alone. I want to help you through this.”

Slowly, Claire turned her head and met Adelle’s eye. The younger woman took a shaky breath as she replied. “Do you have somewhere in mind?”

With a quick nod, Adelle pulled Claire closer and kissed her, lightly but reassuringly. “I know a place we could go.”

Author's choice, author's choice, fairytale picnic.

BtVS, Willow/Tara, sunflower.

RPF, RDA/any of the SG1 cast, taking a vacation at Rick's in Malibu

Edited 2009-06-18 18:32 (UTC)

X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Scott/Emma, first visit to the beach

X-Men: Evolution, Scott/Rogue & Alex, family reunion in Alaska

(Ended up as Sam/OMC, although if you know a character named Andrew feel free to substitute him in your head.)

The bikini was small and yellow and bought only because Vala wouldn't shut up about it. It was also the only swim suit that Sam owned. That wouldn't have been a problem if her brother hadn't invited her to go on vacation with his family. She'd made the mistake of discussing it with Daniel, who had then told Jack, who had then called Landry, who then ordered her to go.

Being as it was the middle of January in Colorado she hadn't been able to find even one other swim suit that fit her. The end result of all of this was her sitting on a beach in Maui watching her brother's kids play on the beach. She was also doing a small side project on her laptop, but she was still wearing the bikini.

"Just looking at that makes my brain hurt." A voice said from behind her. Quickly snapping the laptop closed she twisted around to see the man standing behind her. "Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you."

He smiled at her and she couldn't help but smile back, "It's classified."

"Then I will make no further efforts to look at it. Not that I would want to." The man moved to stand next to her and then dropped down to sit next to her. "I'm Andrew."

"Sam." She had no idea why she was talking to him, but he was cute, in a beach bum kinda way, and it'd been awhile since she'd talked to a cute stranger. On Earth anyway.

"Sam, short for Samantha I presume?" Andrew nodded his head towards her laptop, "Beautiful and intelligent. I trust you'll let me know if I'm wasting my time."

She didn't quite know how to reply to that and he must have picked up on her expression. "I mean only that perhaps you already have somebody to talk to on the beach? A boyfriend? Girlfriend?"

She laughed and gestured over to where her nephew and nieces were playing. "No, no one besides my brother's kids and I think they're more interested in sand castles then talking."

"No one at all?" Andrew looked at her in disbelief. It had been ages since she'd flirted with anyone and she found that it was as fun as she remembered. "I find that hard to understand. Perhaps you have a horrible personality?"

That sobered her mood, "It's complicated." Complicated didn't even begin to cover it, but it was the only way she could really explain her romantic situation right now.

Andrew looked out over the sand for a second before turning back to her and grinning. "Complicated I should get up and leave you alone? Or complicated I should go and buy us some Mai Tais before flirting with you outrageously for the next hour or so before convincing you to go swimming?"

That was a good question, but it had been a long time since she spent a care free afternoon with anyone, let along a cute guy on a beach in Maui. "Make it a pitcher of Sangrias and I'll think about the swimming part."

"Sangrias it is." Andrew stood up and gave her a little bow before walking down the beach to the where a bar-hut-thing was set up. Smiling she shut down her laptop and locked it up in it's case. She might just have to thank Landry and Vala both when she got back.

Smallville, Chloe/AC, trip to Atlantis

Nice. I like how you've portrayed Castiel here. Although now I'm a bit concerned over where he abandoned Dean.

Heroes/Supernatural, Claire/Sam, picnic

The Lost Boys/Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Buffy/Chris, Santa Carla here i come

Thank you.
And he's on the top of a cliff in the middle of nowhere, of course! :)

Pirates of the Caribbean, Will/Elizabeth, shore leave
