[fic] prompts

[krickets]

The first TEN people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble/ficlet from the following fandoms: LOST, THE PACIFIC, DOLLHOUSE, HARPER'S ISLAND, BSG. In return, you have to post this in your journal, regardless of your ability level. [If you absolutely can't write, maybe find a creative alternative, like a mini-fanmix or something?]

Changing this up a bit - when prompting leave the following:
fandom + pairing + color + song lyric/title

*You guys know what I'm apt to write but feel free to try and throw some pairings at me, just no crossovers. Ask me if there's a fandom I've written before that's missing that you are dying for me to write. Give me choices if you like. I'm all about choices.

Also, if you've already posted this tonight or very recently, you're free to prompt as well!

1 - slybrunette; the pacific + chuckler/leckie/stella + brass + ways and means
2 - gigglemonster; fringe + charlie/olivia + chestnut + is there a ghost in my house?
-OR- dollhouse + mag/zone + blue + you must have brought the bad weather with you
3 - blackwolf1480; lost + claire/jack or jack/sawyer + sky blue + tell me a lie?
4 - daybreak777; dollhouse + alpha/echo + silver + face pressed against love's glass
5 - ineffort; the pacific + leckie/vera + gold + you'll follow me back with the sun in your eyes
6 - weatheredlaw; lost + ben/ilana + saffron + we don't live here anymore
-OR- lost + claire/jack + vermilion + if a song could get me you
7 - toestastegood; lost + esau/claire + yellow + ride of the valkyries
-OR- dollhouse + alpha/echo + violet + i will talk and hollywood will listen
8 - hesperia; the pacific + chuckler/leckie OR leckie/phillips + indigo + on a wing and a prayer
9 - ?

The Pacific + Chuckler/Leckie/Stella + brass + ways and means

I have alternates if necessary.

[crickets.livejournal.com]

you could give me more prompts if you want. the pairing is good. ;)

[slybrunette.livejournal.com]

colors: mint, orchid, mulberry, pine, camouflage

song titles: paint's peeling, all is violent all is bright, who knows where the time goes, rambling man

PART 1

[crickets.livejournal.com]

War is like a prison, or so Hoosier has said on many occasions:

Bad food and no women.

So when Leckie finds himself taking up with Chuckler, he tells himself it is a means to an end, a way to keep from going crazy, to relieve the tension. He is, of course, well aware that he's got two perfectly good hands and that the frequency of their meetings might indicate that their situation is a whole lot more complicated. But this is war, after all, and there are far more pressing matters at hand.

Lew is what you might call handsy, and the conditions of their situation don't give them much of their own personal space as it is, so every time the bullets start flying, Leckie thanks god he's not a man prone to distraction. Otherwise, the press of bodies, the heat, the closeness, might just help him find his way to the wrong end of a bullet.

Chuckler teases. He'll stand too close when he doesn't need to, let his hands brush against parts they wouldn't with anyone else.

"You're gonna pay for that, Juergens," Leckie warns, a tight whisper.

"Oh," Lew raises his eyebrows. "I'm counting on it."

Later, in the dark, the slur of curses that filters through his mind and from his lips when Chuckler tugs him off is all that Leckie can say on the matter.

Fringe + Olivia/Charlie + chestnut + is there a ghost in my house?

OR

Dollhouse + Mag/Zone + blue + you must have brought the bad weather with you

[crickets.livejournal.com]

okay! :)

[blackwolf1480.livejournal.com]

LOST + Charlie/Jack/Sawyer + Red + Hot Mess.

Hope you approve!

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Hi there. Whoops! I'm incapable of doing mmm. It's a flaw. And sad to say, I tend not to write Charlie. Unless you wanted something gen which I could try to swing. Do you have something else in mind?

[blackwolf1480.livejournal.com]

That's fine, no worries. How about Jack/Claire + sky blue + Tell me a Lie?

[crickets.livejournal.com]

If you're sure about that pairing I will definitely write it. [Obviously.] I could do just Jack/Sawyer if you prefer, or like I said something gen with Charlie and the guys. For now I'll add that to the list.

Nice to see you here. :)

[blackwolf1480.livejournal.com]

Oh, ummm, how about keep both Jack/Sawyer and Jack/Claire and then you can choose one, but I prefer Jack/Sawyer; I'm such a slasher, haha. :)

[daybreak777.livejournal.com]

Any more post series Alpha/Echo would be fabulous. :-)

Hmm, prompts. + silver + face pressed against love's glass.

But only if you need a prompt. I'm usually happy with whatever you write. :-)

[crickets.livejournal.com]

Oh I am doing research as we speak!

[hazyflights.livejournal.com]

the pacific + vera/leckie? + gold + you'll follow me back with the sun in your eyes

[crickets.livejournal.com]

More pacific! Adding it!

[weatheredlaw.livejournal.com]

I'd really like to see how you'd write my lost otp which is Ben/Ilana. I'll post the prompt for that here, but if that's not something you want to do, then I'll post a different one. :)

lost + ben/ilana + saffron + we don't live here anymore

And if not:

lost + claire/jack + vermilion + if a song could get me you

[toestastegood.livejournal.com]

Can I ask for either:

Lost + Esau/Claire + yellow + ride of the valkyries

or

Dollhouse + Alpha/Echo + violet + i will talk and hollywood will listen

[workswithwords.livejournal.com]

the pacific + chuckler/leckie OR leckie/phillips + indigo + on a wing and a prayer

[turquoisetumult.livejournal.com]

Dollhouse - Adelle/Victor

ETA: Oops! Maria does not read entire directions. Let's give it another go.

Dollhouse - Adelle/Victor + Carmine red (just hit 'find') :D + Coin-operated Boy

And I will post this in my own LJ later! :P :)

[flaky-artist.livejournal.com]

What a lovely opportunity to get over my fear of writing characters-I-don't-usually-write. My post is here. (http://community.livejournal.com/paths_uncrossed/19646.html) :)

Lost + Claire/Desmond + cinnamon + goodbye sweet appetite, no single bite could satisfy

[30_rock_office.livejournal.com]

LOST + Jin/Sawyer (or Jin/Michael) + silver + Fertile Vibe
