3 Sentence Ficathon 2010

[caramelsilver]

This was so much fun last year, so I'm doing it again!

The rules:

This is a challenge where you answer a prompt with a fic consisting of only three sentences. It's open to all fandoms and you can post and answer as many prompts as you like. Only one prompt per comment please.

When posting a prompt please format it this way:

fandom, character/pairing, prompt word/sentence.

Lastly, please pimp this to your flist, I'd like as many as possible to come and participate!

Have fun!

Edit: December 1: grim_lupine is being awesome again this year! She's compiled all your prompts into this delicious archive. All prompts are tagged with fandom and if it's filled or not. So, to make this easier on her, when prompting, please, use the whole name of the fandom and not just the abbreviation. Thanks!

Also: Multiple answers to prompts are not just allowed, but encouraged as well. Don't let the fact that someone else has answered it first stop you if you like the prompt!

If you have any questions ask them to the first comment.

Has it seriously been a year? This blows my mind.

Re: Narnia/Game of Thrones, Susan/Peter, The Pevensies vs. The Lannisters

[toujours-nigel.livejournal.com]

It is Jaime who notices, of course, who sees in the High King a reflection of himself, in all his pride of strength and his open careless affection for Cersei. She is nothing like Cersei, Queen Susan of Narnia. She has a heart, poor fool.

Narnia, girl!Edmund, remorseless




(Thought I'd start this off with my favorite part of last year's ficathon. :D SO. EXCITED.)

The Social Network, Mark/Eduardo, something happy and post-movie

(yes I am craving fixit fic after watching this movie, why do you ask? XD)

[caramelsilver.livejournal.com]

Narnia, Edmund, post-Narnia, tolerance

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

The West Wing, Sam/Will Bailey, wordcraft

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

The Social Network, Mark/Eduardo, confident Eduardo and Mark caught off guard

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

A Separate Peace, Finny/Gene, breathless

A Seperate Peace, Finny/Gene, "The News", T+

[xmarisolx.livejournal.com]

The words come into this mind slowly, agonizingly, one at a time, and he struggles to string them into one, coherent thought: Finny is … dead. And in the midst of this mental pandemonium, one thing becomes startlingly clear: Fuck the world. The realization sears his brain, robs his sight, breaks his heart … he can’t breathe.

Bollywood: Rock On!, Aditya/Joe, forever young

[toujours-nigel.livejournal.com]

By the third time they meet they've plotted out their lives, dotted with record deals and awash with song. They sit on sidewalks and stay up nights and fill a hard-bound notebook with lyrics and notations and caricatures of each other in an endless summer that stretches from adoloscence to adulthood. They talk till they go hoarse and they sing till the neighbours complain and they know for absolutely sure that they will be together forever.

Generation Kill, Brad/Ray, subtlety

[samueljames]

NCIS:LA, Sam/Callen, opening up.

[samueljames]

Without A Trace, Danny/Martin, blushing.

[samueljames]

Shelter, Shaun/Zach, I'm Yours.

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Falling in love is strangely frightening and easy at the same time; it feels inevitable, like something Zach's been waiting for his whole life, but he won't deny that it scares the hell out of him.

If his life has taught him anything, it's this: you don't let people close, you don't let them in, otherwise all it gets you is disappointment, pain, that hurt that surprises you with its sharpness every time.

But Shaun doesn't take no for an answer; he slides his way into Zach's life, his heart, with a tender smile, so easy it's breathtaking; he melts away Zach's defenses, says I've got you, and just like that Zach isn't frightened anymore.

History Boys, the boys, Dakin's 21st birthday party.

[samueljames]

Law & Order UK, Matt/Alesha, friends at first.

[be-themoon.livejournal.com]

He flirts with everyone, Alesha tells herself, and at first it's true. He does flirt with everyone, casual and amused and always a little distant. It does take her some time to realize, later, that he doesn't bring everybody flowers, though, or ask them out to coffee.

[samueljames]

Star Trek, Pike/McCoy, tension.

[galindaxxxx.livejournal.com]

Two men sat shoulder to shoulder outside Starfleet Medical waiting for news on a third; one wore blue, one wore gold and neither spoke.

The younger, the man in blue, sat rigidly, his arms crossed tightly over his chest, his jaw working furiously and his eyes -- his eyes -- sending Pike a death glare every so often: "You know you're not the only one who cares about Kirk," Pike finally says into the silence.

It's a long moment before McCoy finally answers gruffly, "Yeah, I know."

Anastasia, Anya/Dmitri, hustling

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

"They never do learn," Anya says with a grin, sly, pleased with herself; her hands are quick and exceedingly clever, and she took to cards like a fish to water. It's a beautiful thing, watching her play the innocent, knowing the delighted confidence lurking underneath, seeing her walk away from tables with her pockets full of money; Dmitri can never help it, he always laughs at the looks of stunned surprise she leaves in her wake.

"Unfair advantage, darling; you do look the sheltered princess," he says with a smirk; and she laughs against his mouth, whispers archly "do I?" and proceeds to show him exactly how sheltered she is not.

Narnia, Peter and Edmund, best there is

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

"You're my favorite brother, Ed," Peter slurs drunkenly; rolling his eyes, Edmund shifts his brother's weight, almost falling when Peter lets himself go a little limper, and mutters, "I'm your only brother, idiot," and pretends that his cheeks aren't flushing a little at the words, anyway.

"I know that," Peter says cheerfully (Peter is an inordinately cheerful drunk, which is better than some of the alternatives, Edmund supposes), "but of all the brothers in the world, there's none I'd rather have than you!"

"Yes, well, tell me that in the morning; I'll be giving you grief for this for years," Edmund tells him, giving in and tugging on his brother's hair affectionately; wine-sodden as Peter's words might be, Edmund cannot help but agree.

Narnia, girl!Edmund(/Peter), underhanded

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

(YESSSSSSSS :D)

Most of the time they're evenly matched when they clash swords; sometimes Peter beats her, and watches Edlyn's face twitch into irritation with herself, before she says imperiously, Show me how you did that; sometimes she beats him fair and square, and grins at him with her hair falling in sweaty tendrils around her face, and he loves her fiercely in those moments.

Sometimes, however, when she feels like indulging the devil in her, she aims for distraction; lets Peter in close, smiles at him sweetly, brushes delicate fingers against his cheek before she twists the sword out of his hand; and her delighted, mischievous eyes set his heart beating faster.

That's hardly fair, he says hoarsely, and her mouth brushes teasingly against his own as she murmurs in response, 'Fair' is such a relative term, brother mine.

Glee, Rachel/Jesse, forever is a long way away

[redsilverchains.livejournal.com]

This is the dress rehearsal that never ends, Bryan Ryan thinks darkly as he walks backstage to clear his head (he swears: one more screw-up today and he will transition to murderous).

Sweet lord, he can still hear Hummel railing against the shapeless nightshirt that the boy’s character is being 'forced' to wear ("If I'm to lose my dignity anyway, let me do it in a silk bathrobe," Kurt insists), and as for Bryan's two oh-so-legendary (read: prima donna) leads--

--ah, now this is intriguing: Berry and St. James have stopped running lines like someone set fire to the script, and the girl has got her erstwhile love interest cornered against the drapes and if you ask Bryan, the boy’s hands are now doing their own voiceless version of 'Touch Me'— Bryan Ryan sniffs in approval as he turns away; at least someone's getting in-character for the play!

Narnia, all male!Pevensies, ruling all

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Narnia is held between four pairs of hands: Peter, High King, who defends his beloved land with his sword and his breath and all the blood in his body; Sam, deceptively gentle, always ready with his bow and his charm, willing to die for Narnia, as they all are. There is Edmund, who foremost has his words, diplomatic and subtle, icy and poised, a speech for every occasion and his hand at his sword for when words are not enough; and carefree Lucas, who fights when his brothers and his country need him, but whose greatest gift to Narnia is the love he bears for everything around him, the way Narnia herself breaths inside him.

Four kings, boys turned into men, each strong in their own way; Narnia cannot fall while they belong to her.

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Narnia, girl!Edmund, don't underestimate me

[caramelsilver.livejournal.com]

Granted, Queen Edlyn was small, her body thin and not as tall as any of her siblings (they were all tall, she was just the smallest), and people kept underestimating her and she just couldn't understand why?

It took her an embarrassing amount of time before she learned to use it to her advantage.

If they wanted to see a sweet demure girl, then that was what they'd get, right up until she made her move.

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Narnia, girl!Edmund/Peter, don't tell me what I can and cannot want

[lizzie-marie-23.livejournal.com]

Whatever else she may be, Edlyn is a queen and her loyalty to the land she serves comes above all else, whether it be the dignity of her relations with other countries or even her own safety. Peter worries about her excessively and when she returns from her missions, clings to her as if he'll never let her go, begging her to be safe and act more like a queen. "Who are you to tell me what to do," she demands as she struggles out of his grasp, "I am a queen and it is my job to keep Narnia out of the shadows, for your sake, and Susan's, and Lucy's"

[grim-lupine.livejournal.com]

Narnia, all!male Pevensies, boys don't cry (that's a lie)

[lizzie-marie-23.livejournal.com]

Peter doesn't get angry often, but when he does, he's like ice and silent fury; but Edmund is just the opposite - his anger is a quick, violent burn that sometimes makes him tremble with the passion. Lucas laughs until he has tears in his eyes to cover a secret hurt, while Sam goes out and punches things until his hands are raw and he falls down sobbing to the ground. Boys don't cry, they were told in their old life, but they all know better and there's no one who would judge them for it.

Glee, Rachel/Jesse, apologies

[galindaxxxx.livejournal.com]

Jesse lays on his side on the bed in the hotel room, facing the air conditioner (this is going to be hell on my voice...) and pretends to sleep as Rachel sits up on the other side, the strap of her teddy slipping down off of her slender shoulder, her cell phone held to her ear, "Hey Kurt...umm, it's...it's me, Rachel. Sorry for calling you so super late, err...early, but this went straight to voicemail and so I'm going to assume I'm...safe in assuming, you know, that your phone's turned off and all," she pauses and takes in a deep breath, "Listen, I just need to apologize for what I said about Blaine, okay? Sometimes people aren't always out to get our setlist, and even if they are..." her hand gently rests on Jesse's shoulderblade, "Forgiving them might not always be the world's biggest mistake."
