brumeier, and we're kicking things off with today's theme: RESOLUTIONS! In honor of the new year, what are our characters resolving to do?
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...
+ Stargate Atlantis, John Sheppard, he resolves to be a bit more forthcoming with his feelings, with mixed results
+ Marvel Cinematic Universe, Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes, Steve had resolved to give Bucky some space but it’s much harder than he thought it would be
+ Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams, conflict resolution isn’t Steve’s strong point
+ Any, Any, resolving to quit smoking when their significant other moves in
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 2016 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.

“Then admit it. You were cockblocking me with that pretty woman back there!”
“I was not,” Steve said, arms crossed over his chest.
“You were too!” Danny cried, and okay, conflict resolution was not Steve’s forte, but Danny knew his reflexively childish response wasn’t helping. “Be honest, dammit!”
Something that might have been fear in anyone else crossed Steve’s face. “I wasn’t cockblocking you,” he said, more quietly. “I was cockblocking - her.”
Danny was confused. “But - she doesn’t have a cock. At least, I assume she doesn’t. And I get these days you can’t assume that kind of thing, but - wait, why her?”
“Because I wasn’t interested in her.”
“But I was,” Danny protested.
“I know.”
“But -”
“You’re mine.” Steve closed the gap between them, curled a hand around the back of Danny’s neck, leaned in. Kissed him.
Damn, but Steve was a good kisser. When he and Danny finally parted for air, Danny said,
“Does this mean you’re going to stop cockblocking me?”
“Not gonna cockblock myself,” Steve said, and he leaned in for another kiss.
Danny dodged. “Does this mean you’ll let me drive sometimes?”
Steve paused. “Well -”
“Sometimes, or I will totally cockblock you,” Danny said.
Steve considered. Then he reached into his pocket, handed Danny his car keys, and pulled Danny in for another kiss.
Conflict resolved.

Date: 2018-01-08 09:24 pm (UTC)Grabbing his phone, he dialed the number he knew would get him closer to getting in touch with Quinn. A message said only texts, so he sent a text with just an address and signed it ES. Now it would be a waiting game to see if Quinn responded and whether or not they would be able to resolve the attraction that flared the last time they saw each other.
***
Quinn looked at the text message that came in on one of his little used phones. Eliot. He ran his hands though his unruly blond hair and took a deep breath before reading the text again. Eliot was the last person he expected to hear from. Sure they left a lot unresolved the last time they seen one another, but that was three years ago and neither one of them seemed in a rush to figure it out. Apparently Elliot thought now was the time.
Picking up the phone again, he sent a text back simply giving a date and a time. Now he had three days to get to Portland and figure out just what and how much he was willing to give. Knowing him though, he’d be in Portland tomorrow kicking his heels and trying to figure out just what he was going to say.
***
Three days. Three days ago Quinn gave him a date and a time. Now it was ten minutes until that time and he’d been pacing the length of his apartment for the last 20 minutes, knowing Quinn’s habit for showing up early. Of course, it seemed like he’d been pacing for the last day and a half, ever since Nate kicked him out of the office for being annoying.
The doorbell rang 5 minutes ahead of the appointed time, he really hoped it was Quinn on the other side and not Parker come to find out what was going on with him. While he wasn’t sure what he was going to say to Quinn, he didn’t want to deal with Parker, especially when Quinn arrived.
Opening the door, he saw Quinn standing there, his blond hair disheveled. All words left his mind so he just simply stood aside and allowed him to enter. It was apparent Quinn wasn’t going to say anything either so he acted on instinct and simply reached out to grab Quinn buy his coat and pulled him closer until they were inches apart. With a firm grip on Quinn’s coat he leaned in and kissed him, hard, until he felt the other an relax and wrap his arms around him. Deepening the kiss.
Maybe words weren’t needed after all, Eliot thought as they used apart and looked at one another. Kicking the door closed, Eliot walked across the room laving Quinn to follow him into the kitchen area where he grabbed a beer for each of them.
“So…” Quinn Started to say.
“So…” Eliot responded and after a swig of his beer, he continued, “So, I figured it was long past time.”
“Yeah… So this is what we want?”
“You’re here aren’t you?” Eliot countered to Quinn’s question. “You could have ignored the text.”
“Yes. I am. And No, I couldn’t have. Didn’t want to anyway.”
“Good,” Eliot simply said as he turned and walked toward the bed. Draining his beer in one long chug, he set the empty bottle on the stand and turned to find Quinn right behind him. With no hesitation or awkwardness, he took the also empty bottle from Quinn’s hand and set it alongside his before pulling Quinn in for another kiss. This time less awkward than the first. The unresolved attraction resolved itself with hardly any words spoken. They would have tie for the words later when they would come easier.
