I was going to wait on this for... no good reason, really. (If it's not a good reason at 1:35 AM it's not a good reason. The inverse, however, is not true.) Henceforth: Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] emiime, including her addendum.

Tell me about a story I never wrote, (eg, "The one where Chris Pike and Winona Kirk discover they had the same dream about George*.") and I'll write you a snippet from it. ETA my addition: from the rough draft. I contemplated writing these all and letting them sit a couple weeks like I usually do, and decided against it.

Snippets will be 100-500 words.

Rules:
1. One per person, please.
2. AUs and mirror!verse fics are okay.
3. As usual, het, slash, femmeslash, gen requests are all okay.
4. Your request should begin: "The one where..."

Standard rules apply, if you need to know if I know a fandom, just give me a shout and I'll let you know!

If you want something else, ask me about it, or just request it. If I'm not familiar with the fandom/characters you request, I'll ask you to prompt again!

Emi's addition: I make no guarantees that I will get to, or be inspired by, each and every prompt. But I'll try! ETA: Whee, okay, I really have enough now, thanks. ETAA: More polished versions here.

*: [livejournal.com profile] lomedet and [livejournal.com profile] tigerbright, this one's for you. Don't let me forget to include the making out.

I believe in the badassery of Pavel. *grin*

*beams and hugs you gratefully* You're welcome. :D

Pavel for the win! I'm just sorry I couldn't work in "I will kill you if you touch him!"

Re: The title for that was "The Last World's Past", right?

How could I resist writing this? And I believe in an emotionally fluent Jim -- only someone good at reading people could annoy them so effectively. *grin*

*grin* You're very welcome. I'd just written the hobbit one when I saw yours, and I couldn't help thinking flowers=>girls.

Poor Bones. So doomed, so loving it. :D

My mental equivalent of the Bar Dare for this nuKirk: "I'll give you the weapon to kill your current master if you'll come work for me. You man enough, boy?" :D

I love this fandom for genderswap, both in seriousness and in... stuff like this.

And o, the sauciness of Jim!

Re: Because I just got done with a serious genderswap: a little crack.

Me TOO.

*curtseys* Thank you. :) I figure Jim Kirk should be tasty in all aspects.

I am adorned in hearts and stars and delight! \o/ I couldn't resist the Academy shenanigans, I just couldn't. Nor the simmering UST.

*belatedly loves on this*

the threads of Jim through this make me happy, and I love how they've aged *into* each other.

Thank you for indulging me/us.

TOTALLY not belatedly -- you've been BUSY, mi amiga! And I am, as ever, delighted that this delights you. :) (Even with the great stonking typo in the first line.)

This is brilliant! What a fun twist on the prompt! And what a perfectly Kirk thing to do-- doesn't believe in no win scenarios indeed! hehe! And I love the girls with their flower names and floral scent and pretty pastel colored skin. Now I totally want someone to illustrate this for me you, because the image of Bones all flushed and covered with the pretty girls and Kirk with a triumphant, cocky smile moving in... um, yes. that'll be with me for a while... mmmm.... thanks for that. ;-D hehe! [livejournal.com profile] secretsolitaire gives awesome prompts and you write brilliant fills-- what fantastically symbiotic joy to watch!

This is too perfect! Kirk and Sulu doing the Superman v. Batman argument? WIN! Kirk would so be for Batman, with his ability to come up with smart ways out of trouble and Sulu would get dreamy over Superman and his chivalry and his ability to FLY. And I adore your drunk Sulu! oh, lol. Amazing.

*curtseys* Thank you, ever so. :) [livejournal.com profile] secretsolitaire is a prompter of splendor indeed, and I am really delighted that you like what I did with her excellent suggestions. :)

[identity profile] rubynye.livejournal.com 2010-03-28 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
As SOON as I read the prompt I could HEAR them, doing the Superman vs Batman argument, and I knew instantly who was on which side. It was ineveitable. :D
