Friday fun with: children & parents

[prisca1960.livejournal.com]

Hello, everyone. I’m prisca1960 and today is my last day of guest hosting; hard to believe that it's already over. I hope you have had a lot of fun with this weeks prompts and hopefully you will also like today's theme: children & parents. Prompts can be anything as long as children and parents are involved. Maybe your character has a difficult childhood? His parents are overprotecting or uncaring? Or a young couple is expecting their first baby? Adoption or surrogacy...

Just let your phantasie run wild and have fun with the theme.


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 spoiler cut.
If there are possible triggers in your story, please warn for them in the subject line!

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...
+ The Walking Dead - Carl & Judith Grimes - sometimes he blames her for killing their mother
+ any fandom - m & m - adoption or surrogacy
+ Hawaii Five-O - Danny Williams, Grace Williams - father-daughter-dance

We use 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 2017 collection. See further notes on this new option here.

Not feeling any of today’s prompts? Check out Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 1 (not very current), Lonely Prompts Spreadsheet 2, or the Calendar Archives, or for more recent prompts, you can use LJ's advanced search options to find prompts to request and/or fill.

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

FILL: Episode Coda for 7.23, Total Fluff 1/2

[geckogirl89.livejournal.com]

(Minor spoilers for the most recent episode. Also, somewhat inspired by cast photos that have come out for the season finale. Perhaps, a somewhat unexpected take on the prompt.)

"Vroom! Vroom! Here comes the checkered flag, buddy! Oh, look out for the new champion of the Indy 500! It's Charlie Williams!"

Charlie giggled at Steve's narration and Danny grinned at the adorable scene he heard from outside his son's bedroom door. He was glad that the car-themed bedroom was such a big hit with Charlie, and his insides melted into goo at the affection Steve clearly had for his son.

Danny gripped the doorknob and slowly turned it open. Charlie was using both hands to hold onto the toy steering wheel that came with the bed, and Steve was sitting next to him on the floor, leaning towards Charlie and gesturing forward.

"Look at all the people in the stands cheering you on! You're like Dale Earnhardt, Jr."

Danny blinked for a few seconds, stunned and touched by the fact that Steve had apparently taken the time to learn who Charlie's favorite NASCAR driver was. Then again, that was just like Steve, who had found out his college minor even though it wasn't in his employee file. His smile returned, and this time it was more tender as he watched Steve interacting with Charlie.

Charlie beamed. "Can we race again, Uncle Steve?!"

"Maybe later, kiddo," Danny said. "Breakfast is ready."

Charlie and Steve both looked toward where Danny was standing near the door. Charlie abandoned his steering wheel toy and raced over to Danny.

"Morning, Danno!" He launched forward to hug his legs.

Danny laughed and leaned down to embrace his son. "Morning, Charlie." He rubbed the top of Charlie's head. "You know, I'm pretty sure we'll have to get in there soon, before Grace hogs all the pancakes." He made a mock serious expression with his face.

"Pancakes! Awesome!" Charlie released Danny and zoomed down the hallway towards the kitchen, where the promised pancakes awaited him.

Danny watched Charlie, hearing Steve stand up and join him near the door. "Charlie loves pancakes a lot, doesn't he?" Steve asked.

"Almost as much as he loves his new room and his new race car bed." He turned towards Steve, facing him with a serious expression. "Thanks for helping me with that, by the way."

Steve shrugged. "It wasn't that hard to put together, though it would have been easier with the instructions." Danny rolled his eyes as he was reminded of his and Steve's silly argument the day before. "And besides, seeing that look on Charlie's face, it kind of makes it all worth it, doesn't it?"

Danny released a content sigh. "It does."

"You know, I'm pretty sure Charlie's going to be a natural by the time we teach him to drive."

Danny's eyes widened. "We?"

"Well, yeah. Why not?" Steve crossed his arms defensively.

"You are not teaching Grace or Charlie to drive. You drive like a maniac--"

"Which saved your life yesterday," Steve protested.

"And I really think I should be the one to teach them how to drive." He paused, vainly attempting to contain the smile threatening to break out across his face. God, how he loved this man. "You'll get to teach them other things. Things that result in less property damage."

Steve chuckled. "Maybe I'll teach them how to make frittatas that don't set the stove on fire."

Danny shook his head and laughed at the memory. "That was one time, one time, Steven. I can cook just fine, other than that."

Steve nodded in acknowledgment of Danny's statement. "Alright, but if you're teaching them how to cook, I get to teach them about home renovation." He smirked smugly. "And how to put furniture together."

Danny heard a loud sigh and turned to face his daughter, who was standing a few feet away from Steve and Danny in the hall. "Oh my god, you guys are sooo ridiculous!"

Danny blushed as he realized that Grace had been listening to their bickering. He had become so lost in his own world with Steve that he hadn't noticed her presence until she spoke.

"Charlie was wondering when you guys were going to come eat breakfast, but I guess I'll have to tell him that you guys are just going to stand in his room and flirt all day."

Danny's mouth dropped open. Steve started to speak, but he couldn't seem to form a coherent sentence. Grace turned and strolled back down the hallway.

Several seconds after Grace had made her dramatic exit, Danny finally managed to break the painfully uncomfortable silence that had grown between him and Steve. "So, that was awkward, wasn't it?" He laughed nervously and scratched the back of his head.

"It was," Steve agreed. His gaze was focused on his own feet.

Danny licked his lips. "Do you think that's what we were doing? Flirting?"

Steve's gaze darted up to meet his before it moved away again. Danny could see the walls Steve was putting up, the fortress he was building to hide his innermost thoughts. Steve shrugged, and his body was stiff with the movement. "I don't know," he answered. "Maybe."

Danny's head was swimming the word maybe, with everything that it could mean if they had been flirting as Grace had claimed. Danny cleared his throat. "If, uh, if we were flirting..." He drew in a deep breath as Steve gazed up intently into his eyes. Danny's heart pounded in his chest, and his anxiety was almost enough to make him abandon his train of thought. Almost, but Steve's eyes were begging him to finish that sentence.

"If we were, I wouldn't mind," Danny confessed.

Danny watched with relief as Steve's walls melted away to reveal an expression of pure relief. "I wouldn't mind, either." He beamed. "In fact, I think we ought to continue this flirting over breakfast."

Danny laughed. "Sounds like a plan, babe."

Steve wrapped his arm around Danny's shoulders, and Danny's hand rested on the middle of Steve's back. They walked off towards the kitchen together, and Danny felt like he was walking into the first morning of the rest of his life. He was thrilled that Steve would make that journey with him.

That was AWESOME! Loved it. Go Grace tell them how it is! I would LOVE to see what happens next!

Re: FILL: Episode Coda for 7.23, Total Fluff 2/2

[geckogirl89.livejournal.com]

Hee, thank you! Grace would totally tell them how it is, in my opinion. Thanks for letting me know that you could be interested in a follow-up.

This is so cute! I love all the fluffy! Steve is so sweet with both the kids, and I love that Grace's off-hand comment is going to lead to something good for Steve and Danny.

Thank you so much for the fill!

Steve is the sweetest, isn't he? Grace just calls it like she sees it, too.

You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed this story!

Steve looked at Bucky thoughtfully, then back at Sofia, who was lying in her playpen, trying to fit all of the toes of her right foot into her mouth without much success.

“You sure about that, Bucky?” Steve finally asked. He walked closer to his husband, put his arms around Bucky’s waist and dropped his chin onto Bucky’s left shoulder.

“Yes, Steve, absolutely sure. She needs someone. We’ve been fostering her since we found her in that Hydra lab. We’re the only parents she ever had, you realize that, right? And who would be better at keeping her out of trouble once we figure out what the modified serum in her blood will do to her? Hm? Who is better equipped to handle that, other than the two people who know exactly how that feels? She is meant to be our daughter. I know it. You know it. Why are you having second thoughts?”

Bucky’s voice was low, his tone gentle. Steve still could hear the emotion, the love for the little girl they were seeking to adopt, in every word.

“I’m not. It’s just … this is huge. Us, as parents. For real. This is a forever kind of thing.” Steve didn’t know how to describe the feeling that had been growing in his chest these past few days. The mix between awe and terror at the thought of becoming Sofia’s father for good was unexpected and unwelcome. He was Captain America for crying out loud. He should not be intimidated by the prospect of becoming a parent to the little girl both of them loved with all their hearts.

Bucky chuckled and turned around slightly to look into Steve’s face. “You trying to tell me you’d have been able to give her up again?” Amusement danced in Bucky’s eyes and Steve groaned. Bucky was of course right. He’d have done anything to keep Sofia, anything at all. She was their baby, their daughter, Steve wasn’t gonna let anyone get their hands on her.

“Alright, alright, you win. Of course I wouldn’t give her up again. She’s ours. Come on, let’s sign the papers. We’ll let the others throw that party they think we don’t know about.” Steve kissed Bucky gently and then walked over to the playpen where Sofia was busy frowning at her dripping wet toes.

“They’re not gonna fit, sweetheart,” Steve commented and leaned down to pick up his daughter. “But that’s not gonna stop you from trying, is it?” He kissed the top of her head before handing her to Bucky.

“Come on, time for us to become a family in the eyes of the law,” he winked at Bucky who just shook his head in amusement and headed for the door while their daughter drooled on his shirt.

Thank you so much for the fill! Love the idea of Steve and Bucky adopting a little Hydra experiment baby because they're the ones most uniquely suited to take care of her. So much aww!

Supernatural, Gen. John steps up to the plate to care for a traumatized creature!Dean. (Because there are entirely too many fics where he just kills him, despite his actions in IMTOD... And because Dean deserves a loving father for once!)

Re: Not a fill

[cyanidesympathy.livejournal.com]

Dude. Come on. I would argue some of your points but this is just not the place. Incredibly poor fandom etiquette to start on someone over their prompts. I wouldn't, and didn't, start arguing with you on a prompt thread over one of your prompts; please offer me the same courtesy. By all means, message me privately if you want to keep arguing-- I don't like to start shit but I'm fine finishing it; especially when people are assumptive about my beliefs-- but commentfic memes are never a place where this is welcome. I just want to read and write in peace, same as you.

[cyanidesympathy.livejournal.com]

Supernatural, Gen. The Winchesters hunt a witch that brings out the worst in people-- Literally.

John barely has time to be relieved that Dean stopped Sam from being hit because of what happens to Dean...

I would say Dean's worst was when he was a torturer in Hell, wouldn't you agree? Is he traumatized and catatonic, full of strange fears? Is he a brutal torturer convinced this is another test of Alistair's? Or is he something else?

(MoC and demon!Dean are acceptable too)

Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric, one day I hope to be more than my father's son.

[rhymesofblue.livejournal.com]

Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric, It's takes nearly everything in him not to break every mirror he glances into. He sees the golden hair and yellow eyes and thinks: cursed, abandon; the remains of a city slaughtered in one night with only one survivor to carry on. Snarls and curls his fist, tries his best to hide it all from Al, the twist of a knife in his stomach every time he sees his reflection, the mourning for his mother, the betrayal buried deep down from their father, but-
(His eyes move without out him, glance into glass, and he thinks: I am the spitting image of my father when all I wanted was my mother, and the laugh bubbles up unbidden inside him.)
