Dé Máirt: Incorrect Quotes
Jul. 19th, 2016 12:08 pmMerry Tuesday to you, my darlings! I remain
classics_lover, and this fine, sunny Tuesday's theme will be Incorrect Quotes. I'm sure you've all seen Incorrect Quotes Tumblrs before, and today is based on that premise. Prompts must include words that definitely did not come out of your chosen characters' mouths, but could have. (Also, if anyone wants to include a link to their sources that would be awesome^^)
Just a few rules:
No more than five prompts in a row.
No more than three prompts in the same fandom.
Use the character's full names and fandom's full name for ease adding to the Lonely Prompts spreadsheet.
No spoilers in prompts for a month after airing, or use the spoiler cut option found here.
If your fill contains spoilers, warn and leave plenty of space, or use the above mentioned spoiler cut.
Prompts should be formatted as follows: [Use the character's full names and fandom's full name]
Fandom, Character +/ Character, Prompt
Some examples to get the ball rolling...
+ MCU, Tony Stark (+ any/ies), Listen up, fives, a ten is speaking.
+ Assassin's Creed, Altaïr ibn La'Ahad, Where falls my shadow, falls my blade.
+ Historic RPF, “Curse your sudden yet inevitable betrayal!” Julius Caesar, to Brutus
We are now using AO3 to bookmark filled prompts. If you fill a prompt and post it to AO3 please add it to the Bite Sized Bits of Fic from 2016 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

While the Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet and LJ's advanced search options are available, bookmarking the links of prompts you like might work better for searching for in the future.

empty space, harry/ginny, hermione, pg-13, post-book pre-epilogue
Date: 2016-07-19 02:02 pm (UTC)Those times still linger in the back of their minds; Harry has nightmares, Hermione is paranoid and careful, always looking over her shoulder. And Harry's too, for that matter. Into his business.
"I don't know; I try not to bother her about this kind of stuff." Harry knows Ginny has her own set of worries to deal with; he can't put his own into words, let alone burden her with it. She spends at least one night at home every week; Ron said they tried not to leave their mother alone, after Fred, and Harry's been drawn into the rotation, once or twice, under the guise of needing actual food.
"You mean like your thoughts and feelings?" Hermione makes it sound disapproving, as if of course Harry should be telling Ginny that he dreams he wakes up in a tent, looking into the eyes of a headless snake, not knowing if it's the wind or Parseltongue that he hears.
"Yeah," says Harry. "Those." He leans back; he always gets butterbeer, never touches it. "I dunno, Hermione, I feel like home, with Ginny, it's a place where all that isn't, if you know what I mean." He can tell Hermione doesn't get it; she deals with Ron, and they never seem to forget. But he goes home, tired, with all these things in his head from work, the nightmares, and they don't talk; the silence fills all the gaps and feels sort of like a blanket, warm and cosy and dark underneath, safe.
"You should talk to her, though." Hermione says, and for once she's the first to leave. Harry watches her go, head down but looking left and right, her hands moving if she has to stand still.
Harry thinks, if he lets it all back out of the deep dark hole he shoved it in, he'll end up like her. He figures Ginny knows enough, what with being there, enough to decide she doesn't want to know the rest. Leaning back in the booth, he can see a flash of red hair through the window. He expects it to be Ron, late as always and sputtering that he'd managed to miss his own wife. Instead, it's Ginny, and she nudges him until he moves over, making enough room for her.
"So this is where you all go every week," she says, and of course she would have noticed her husband, brother and sister-in-law all being late on the same night. Harry probably should have figured that out earlier, and came up with an explanation. "Does it help?" she says, and she pulls the glass towards her without asking.
"Not really," Harry says. "I think it helps them, though."
"Good," Ginny says. "Mum wants everyone over tonight; you ready?"
"Yeah," says Harry. "Let's go." He lets Ginny pull him out onto the street and away from people, back to where there are no crowds, no people pointing, and he can just be, without everyone's expectations.
He never needed to tell Ginny he preferred the quiet.

Date: 2016-07-19 10:56 pm (UTC)Kanaan snatched his hand back, eyes wide.
"Ronon," Teyla said, tone patient, but she rolled her eyes.
John didn't look up from the book he was flipping through. "Ignore him, Kanaan. His bark is worse than his bite."
Aiden bustled through the front door of Ronon's grandfather's house with a stack of pizzas in boxes. "What John means is welcome to the club."
Kanaan looked reassured for all of two seconds before Ronon snatched up the knife Kanaan had been reaching for, spun it expertly, and sent it flying across the room past Kanaan's head. Kanaan squeaked and hit the deck.
Teyla rolled her eyes again. "Kanaan," she said, tugging him to his feet. "Ronon would not have hit you. He was only trying to frighten you." When Kanaan was vertical, Teyla spun him around so he could see the wooden board tacked to the far wall, pockmarked with blade indentations. Ronon's knife was perfectly in the center, point first.
"Like I said." John glanced up. "His bark is worse than his bite. He is pretty precious about his knives, though." John reached into his pocket, drew out a knife, and threw it across the room with the same practiced ease as Ronon. It landed in the target, not quite on center, but close enough beside Ronon's throw that his aim was obviously deliberate.
Aiden flipped open the top pizza box and served himself up a slice. "If you want to stay part of the club, you either have to learn to be badass with a knife or Teyla's bantos rods."
"Are you 'badass' with a knife?" Kanaan asked. He was from Teyla's homeland and spoke English cautiously, the same way she did.
"Getting there," Aiden said.
Ronon snorted. "Hardly." But he went and got himself a slice of pizza. John was still flipping through his book.
Someone knocked at the screen door. Teyla went to answer, because even though this was Ronon's house, they all called it home.
"Officer Weir," Teyla said.
Elizabeth stood on the doorstep, dark hair mussed in the breeze, wearing a leather jacket to stave off the early March chill. "Is John here?"
Teyla glanced over her shoulder. "John. It is your probation officer."
John lowered his book, stood up. He was always polite to Elizabeth, whatever his general disdain for authority. "Weir. What brings you by?"
Teyla opened the door and stepped aside to allow Elizabeth into the den. She glanced at the target on the far wall.
"I'm going to assume neither of those knives is yours," she said. "You know the conditions of your probation."
John smiled, the expression perfectly charming and perfectly hollow. "Assume away."
"I received a call from your employer at MIT," she said. "Someone was looking for you. Alleging you defaced property? That doesn't sound like you."
John had a tendency to resort to fists before words had had a chance to prevail.
"That doesn't sound like me because it's not me." John's smile vanished; his posture turned closed.
"The complaining member of the faculty wants to talk to you," Elizabeth said. She arched her eyebrow. "I recommend you speak to him. And be polite."
"I can be plenty polite," John said, which was true, but not reassuring.
Elizabeth glanced at Ronon and Aiden, eyed Kanaan warily, smiled at Teyla, and swept out of the house.
"What happened?" Teyla asked as soon as Elizabeth was out of earshot
John grinned; his gaze was opaque. "Nothing. Just messing with those fancy college kids."
Behind them, Ronon roared. "Hey! What did I say about touching my piece?"
Kanaan yelped.
John said, without turning, "Ronon's even more precious about his pizza than about his knives." And he sank back down in his chair and kept on flipping through the book.
Teyla went to intervene in Ronon and Kanaan's pizza dispute and wondered what John had done this time, and if it was something from which he would finally have no escape.

Date: 2016-07-19 03:53 pm (UTC)Rodney was honestly afraid to move from his spot on the balcony overlooking it all.
“Uh, you planning to help get the kids settled?”
He braved a look to John, who had sidled up beside him, and shook his head. “Can't.”
“Why?”
“Because there seems to be no signs of intelligent life anywhere and somehow the SGC intends me to put these morons to work in a lab with equipment that could kill them.”
The smirk that lit John's face did not help.
“I'm serious! Or do you not forget the time Matthers nearly got electrocuted because he couldn't read a simple warning sign!” Rodney stopped himself from listing the six other idiots who'd done the same thing during the course of that experiment.
Below them, someone dropped a box labeled Fragile! Glass! Handle with Care! and the sound of smashing glass made Rodney grimace: there went the beakers, tubes, and rods Carson and Jennifer had finally managed to get approved.
John pat him on the shoulder. “Well, to be fair, we were all pretty much morons when we got here and we managed to survive.”
“Yes. Because we have brains! I mean, yours is slowly being eaten by that ridiculous hair, but...”
“Aw, Rodney, I love you, too.”
“Shut up.”
That insufferable smirk back, John pushed off the banister and said, “Come on, I'll start sorting the kids while you put the fear of God in them.”

fill: the revelation, kylux feat. Han Solo
Date: 2016-07-27 04:45 pm (UTC)Han watches them carefully, Ben and the Hux boy. He remains quiet, as he is strapped to the chair knowing this was a way to torture him. A reminder of his missing wife. For all the roughness in his Kylo Ren persona, Ben is surprisingly tender. Slowly brushing his fingers against the redhead's pale cheeks.
Han barely knows the kid, only his father may be burn in the seven hells. But from his mannerisms, Hux seemed to be alot like him. Proper, rule following, ellitist. He could tell by the way the boy's eyes told Ben "Not Here".
Han wonders how Ben could pick up a boy like that. Sure Ben may be dark but Han could spot a bit of himself in his son. Han's sarcasm, his playfullness, his snark. They were opposites as boys could be.
But then Ben pauses to look in Hux's eyes. Han bites his lip as he looks at the scene as he clenches his hands in his bonds. Ben's eyes, they sparkle, just like the way Leia's used to when she gazed upon him. Ben is in love and he is happy.
Han was once happy like that, before Leia disappeared and he became nothing. It has been years since he last kissed her, he last touched her....since he last told her I know. But still it is a found beautiful memory even in this darkness.
And suddenly Han knows why they are in love. They completed each other. The Hux boy may have been Ben's opposite, but if this is Han's last hours alive, at least he can die knowing Ben has something good from this hell.
He gets to experience to once wonderful life Han once had by falling in love, and being loved in return.
