The Shiny Happy Comment Ficathon!

[dollsome]

Winter is coming; daylight is fleeting; for the students among us, end-of-semester hell is just about to rear its ugly head. What better way to combat such woes than with a super-cheerful comment ficathon?

Ergo:





The Rules Are Thus:

1. Cheerful prompts! I feel like there's not much regulation here in terms of pairings: almost every ship or pair of characters is capable of a fluffy/happy/silly moment, and if they're not in canon, then why can't they be in fic? However, any prompt involving, say, lyrics from Eminem and Rihanna's "Love The Way You Lie" is probably not appropriate in terms of tone. Unless it's the "guess that's why they call it WINDOW PANE" line, which will never stop being hilarious.

2. Prompt format should go thus:

Fandom -- Pairing or characters -- prompt

3. For the fic you've written, please put the following in your comment's subject line: 'Fandom -- pairing -- title.'

4. Be nice!

5. Spread the fun, if you are so inclined!

<center><a href="http://dollsome.livejournal.com/1484948.html"><img src="http://pics.livejournal.com/dollsome/pic/0019ttd0"></a></center>

6. Go forth and have a merry happy good time. :)

Glee, Rachel & Kurt, facials.

glee -- rachel & kurt gen -- detour a bad day

[storypaint.livejournal.com]

Rachel was scrubbing at a particularly sticky part of her scalp and mentally calculating the time she had left to get to her next class when she heard the bathroom door open and close. There was at least one good thing about the bullies who still insisted on slushying her regularly - they were boys. They hadn't come in with another one to ruin her extra sweater.

She had her eyes screwed shut as the water flowed, and so she jumped in surprise when she did hear a male voice after all.

"Facials," Kurt said.

Rachel bumped her head on the mirror. She groped around for her towel and he handed it to her. She wiped her face and gave him a look of surprise.

"Kurt?" she said finally. Perhaps she'd misheard him.

"You and I," he said, smiling just a little, "should go get facials today after school. We don't have Glee practice, and my face is craving something better than this sticky sugar mess."

Rachel hesitated. She liked this thing that they had now, this tentative friendship. And this was what friends did, she supposed. She'd never really had any friends to do girly things with. Her fathers weren't big on skincare, and though it was fun to go to the mall with them, it wasn't the same as doing the same thing with her peers.

"That sounds like a wonderful idea, Kurt," she said warmly, and his face lit with a smile.

"I got Santana to run interference for us," he said, winking conspiratorially. "She's distracting the football team with some ridiculous story about a cheerleader orgy in the gym. We should get to class while we still can."

He offered her his arm, and she tucked away her towel and slushied sweater before taking it.

"They ruined my favorite scarf this morning," he said darkly as they exited the bathroom onto a hallway empty of letterman jackets. "So I decided to ruin their fun. If I don't let them get to me, they can't win. Same for you."

Rachel smiled. "I'll meet you after school."

"Then," he said, "it is a totally platonic friend date. I'll drive. Bring that sweater and we'll sacrifice it to the fashion gods."

"Kurt!"

"Kidding," he said, with a hint of mischief, and they parted toward their respective classrooms.

Rachel found herself thinking that he was right (not about the sweater, but the attitude). She'd always tried to stay strong against adversity. But it was a lot easier when she didn't have to go it alone.

She was glad she didn't have to anymore.

The Vampire Diaries, Caroline, Elena, Bonnie.

Prompt: slumber party.

The Vampire Diaries -- Caroline, Elena, Bonnie -- Slumber Party

[dranime203.livejournal.com]

It never occurred to Elena, at the time of planning, that having a witch, a vampire and a human in one (relatively small) bedroom would cause apocalypse-scale mayhem.

But a sleepover had seemed like such a good idea.

An hour after arrival, Caroline sat on the windowsill, sipping at a bag of blood through a straw and Bonnie sat on the bed, diligently looking anywhere but at Caroline and sulking (she'd just lost the argument over whether the blonde should go into the woods and catch 'something furry' to eat, but obviously, Caroline didn't want to ruin her new slippers -'have you seen how cute they are, Bon?'

After 20 minutes of tension, Elena announced it was time for truth or dare, which began peacefully enough (almost like the old days, Elena thought wistfully. Unfortunately, certain not-very-tactful-truth/dares led to a full scale argument between the other two - Elena agreed it was a teensy-bit unfair to dare Caroline to never drink human blood again - and when it got heated, and fangs came out and witchy-powers flickered the lights in the bedroom, there was a load bang from the bathroom.

Everyone went silent.

"Sorry," Bonnie had the grace to look embarrassed, "I just blew up your toilet."

Elena had the strongest urge to hit her head against a wall. Repeatedly.

Glee, Brittany & Finn, anything because it's these two

Glee - Brittany & Finn - Hip-hop and Hippos

[polychromic.livejournal.com]

Sort of an on-again-off-again watcher of Glee so I hope this is kind of on the right track!

“Hey, you’re like pretty smart, right?”

Finn looked to his left and then to his right. For good measure, he looked behind him as well. Nope, there definitely wasn’t anyone else in the room Brittany could be talking to. Well, unless she was talking to an imaginary friend or something, he’d had one of those once. Of course he was like five then, but hey, whatever floats other people’s boats.

Oh, right she’d asked him a question.

“Uh, me? Not really. Maybe you should talk to Rachel or something. She’s kind of more into the school and studying thing than I am.”

But Brittany didn’t seem to be listening to him at all, which was kind of weird since she was the one who’d talked to him in the first place. She circled around him once and then gave him one good look-over with her hands on her hips.

Okay, this was getting kiiiiinda creepy.

Just as Finn was debating making up an excuse about having to go and do a thing (he hadn’t gotten far enough to think what the thing was yet), she finally said “I’ve been watching you dance.”

“You’ve been watching me dance,” he repeated, not really sure what to make of that. Sure, he’d been practicing lately to try and get better, but he didn’t think anyone had noticed.

“Yeah,” Brittany said, tilting her head to the side as she regarded him, “You kind of suck.”

Finn wasn’t sure what to say to that, so he said “Uh…”

“I can help you get better,” she said with such seriousness that he thought he’d better not laugh, “But I need something back. Like a trade.”

Wracking his brain for anything that might be a fair trade for dancing lessons, Finn came up with… nothing. He sort of shrugged and hoped the whole awkward situation would just go away.

~~~

It didn’t go away.

Finn still wasn’t sure how he’d been talked into tutoring Brittany in trigonometry, especially since math was kind of his worst subject. And this was taking into account that he didn’t really have any subjects that he was awesome in to begin with.

“So then this is the hypotenuse. I think. Well, I’m pretty sure,” he said pointing to the line that looked the longest on the triangle.

Brittany nodded, her eyes fixated on the line with great intensity.

“And then there’s this thing that Mr. Hinkle always says when you’re trying to find out the angle. Uh. Something that sounds like ‘sock it to ‘em’, I can’t remember.”

“Hippopotamus and socks and toes,” Brittany said like she was a little dazed by the idea, “That’s a totally weird combination.”

~~~

He’s spent at least an hour trying to work his way through the routine that Brittany’s running him through, and Finn’s pretty sure he’s getting worse.

“Look,” he said, “I’m happy to just stand at the back and like… wave my arms around or something. You really don’t have to do this. I didn’t do a very good job teaching you trig anyway.”

“Do the body-wave move again,” she responded while inspecting her nails, acting like no words had actually come out of his mouth.

Finn sighed and rubbed his face wearily with one hand before attempt number he-didn’t-even-know-anymore of the body-wave move, feeling (and looking) more like a wobbly octopus made of rubber instead of a totally sick dancer like Mike Chang. Nine attempts later and he’s pretty much ready to just make a run for it, but on the tenth try Brittany squealed and clapped her hands and did one of those cheerleader fist-pumps into the air because it’s finally – finally – looking less like an gorilla suffering from a seizure.

And okay, he had to admit it felt pretty cool.

~~~

Everyone in the Glee Club stared as Brittany showed her C+ trigonometry quiz to Finn and he performed a happy dance that looked like a cross between a hip-hop step and the hokey-pokey. When they moved into some sort of patty-cake-down-by-the-roller-coaster-with-Miss-Mary-Mack-Mack-Mack clapping game and stepped out into a slide complete with pointed gun-fingers, a few mouths even dropped open.

“What is even going on here?” huffed Rachel from her seat.

“Obviously the beginning of a beautiful and deeply weird friendship,” Kurt answered.

The Vampire Diaries, Stefan/Elena/Damon, birthdays (or holidays) stopped being a big deal a while ago.

the vampire diaries | stefan/elena/damon | they say it's your birthday

[austen.livejournal.com]

"Remind me why we're doing this again," Damon mutters. He's only a disembodied voice in the near-darkness, but Elena can picture the disdain in his expression as easily as she could see it if the lights were on. She shoots a glare of her own toward the corner of the dining room.

"Because," she pointedly replies. "Everyone should get a birthday once in a while."

She strikes a match against the box of the rest in an attempt to light it. The match barely ignites before extinguishing - and not before the flame skims against her fingertip in the process. She muffles her hiss of pain by biting down on her lower lip.

"Well, at least you didn't try to fit 163 candles on the cake," Damon interjects. "We'd be here all night."

"If you're not going to help, you don't get any cake," Elena says.

Damon sniffs in response. In one blink, he's still standing in the corner; in the next, he's hovering behind her shoulder, flicking a silver lighter open into flame to light the single candle resting in the middle of the blue-and-white cake.

"For the record, I don't even like cake," he replies, snapping the lighter shut.

"Why do you even have that lighter?"

"I'm dark and brooding," Damon smirks, shadows twisting over his face as the candle flickers. "It completes the package. Stefan show you his yet?"

Elena opens her mouth to reply, then shuts it without saying a word.

"I think you already know the answer to that, Damon," Stefan coolly says. Elena steps out from between Damon and the dining room table, covertly stepping in front of the cake in an attempt to conceal it.

"You're early," she murmurs, but isn't disappointed about it as she crosses the distance to kiss him, taking one of his hands in her own. "I wanted to surprise you."

"I know." His dark eyes hold a touch of amusement before glancing over her shoulder to where Damon's preoccupied himself with swiping a fingerful of frosting from the middle of the cake - drawing a line through Stefan's name in the process.

"Let's just say my brother is horrible at keeping secrets," Stefan admits, lifting their joined hands to kiss the tops of Elena's knuckles.

Behind them, Damon gags. Stefan sighs. Elena rolls her eyes.

"Now I remember why I don't like cake," Damon says. "Sickeningly sweet."

Glee, Brittany/Santana, Prove my love

Glee - Brittany/Santana - You don't know how far I'd go

[anthimeriate.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely ridiculous, Santana thinks, thanking any and all deities who will listen that she is in Brittany's dining room and not at Breadstix where someone might see her. But she doesn't say it out loud and doesn't let it show on her face, because she royally fucked up in picking Mercedes over her best friend, and she knows it.

The blonde is looking at her expectantly, waiting, and all she can do is put on her best fake smile and try not to grimace as she slowly lowers her face down to the plate. It's the strangest sensation, the pasta sauce still warm and the tangy smell of tomato suddenly filling her nostrils. But Brittany squeals in delight as Santana nudges the meatball across the plate with her nose, and it almost makes the complete humiliation worth it.

Still, once the meatball reaches its destination, the brunette can't sit back up fast enough, quickly wiping off her face with a napkin. Part of her can't believe she just did that, even for Brittany, but that train of thought is almost completely derailed when the taller girl wraps her arms around her neck and pulls her in for a quick kiss.

"After all that you're not even going to eat it?" Santana asks incredulously.

Brittany grins and shrugs. "No. I don't even like meatballs. Want to go up to my room?"

Suddenly she decides she doesn't even care that she just made an utter fool of herself, because Brittany isn't going to tell and even if she did, she could always claim that she only did it to get laid. Which she is going to be in just a few minutes, and it's going to be awesome, because the forgiveness sex is always the best. And she'll act like it doesn't mean anything, even to Brittany herself. But she likes to think that maybe the other girl sees through it, because the Santana Lopez wouldn't do this crap for just anybody. She might not be the nicest or most loyal person but she does her best to prove herself in the end, and Brittany is always waiting there for her.

30 Rock, Jack/Liz, "You're the perfect guest for a Sarah Palin fundraiser."

30 rock | jack/liz | how jack donaghy got his groove back, with whales (1/2)

[dollsome.livejournal.com]

"You're the perfect guest for a Sarah Palin fundraiser."

Liz stares at him. "Is this one of those times where you make me mad on purpose to teach me how to convert my anger into power, like a shark?"

"An orca, Lemon. An orca. And no. If I was practicing the O-R-C-A Method, you'd recognize it immediately."

"O-R-C-A?"

"Offensive Riling Creates Aptitude."

"Oh, hey! That's kinda funny."

"No, you know what's kinda funny? The fact that you think John Stamos actually has a chance at beating the curly haired man for the lasting possession of that funny-looking redhead's heart on Glee. It's never going to happen, Lemon."

"Let me tell you something about Will Schuester, Jack!" Liz says, and some indignant finger pointing comes out to play without Liz's permission. It's not so weird. What's so weird is when she catches herself doing it to the TV. (But seriously. Sue is so right about that d-bag. Why can't Emma see it?? And why can't Liz get her hair to stay in an Emma hair shape?) "Will Schuester is an adulterous stalkery creep who does not look nearly as good in those well-tailored vests as he thinks he does, and in a fair and just world, he wouldn't hold a candle to Uncle Jesse! No one beats Uncle Jesse, Jack, no one, especially not when he is a sexy dentist. God damn it!"

She's breathing heavily. She feels the power of her hatred coursing through her.

"Orca'd," Jack says, quietly, steely-gazedly, and triumphantly.

"Whoa," Liz says.

Jack pats her on the shoulder, then returns to the topic at hand. "But you should think about it, Lemon. Consider this: your undeniable resemblance to the divine Sarah--"

"--blechhhhhhhhhhhh--"

"--will garner popularity that you, quite frankly, have never known and will never know anywhere else. Who knows? If she's made aware of it -- if she's tickled by it -- she may even make you her mascot."

"Her mascot? Jack, are you serious?"

"I never joke about mascots," Jack says solemnly.

"The Harvard mascot is crimson," Liz tests. "That's not even a living entity."

"Crimson is a noble color," Jack says with great dignity.

Liz rolls her eyes. "Okay. Clearly we're not gonna get anywhere there. The point is: Jack, the idea of me being that woman's mascot is abhorrent. If you say it again, I might actually throw up in my mouth a little. And I don't know why you would even go there! For the record, I am way more offended than that time I was too busy to shower for a couple days and you said I looked like a, quote, 'non-hot, past-his-prime Viggo Mortensen who subsists on naught but Four Loko and deep, searing regret.' This is so much worse than orca-ing me! This, this is straight up Moby Dicking me! Why would you even talk to me about Sarah Palin fundraisers--"

"I was wondering," Jack interrupts, quite placidly, "whether you might accompany me to one."

Liz stares at him. Jack stares back. She's still not quite used to just how good he's gotten at enduring her crazy ranting.

"To torture me?"

"To date you, Lemon."

Liz should know better than to take this seriously. Ever since Avery took off, Jack's been a little on the crazy side. A few weeks ago, Jenna spent a half hour listening to him talk about his feelings (in a way where she was actually just practicing her I'm Here For You face for a new guest spot as a guidance counselor on 90210), and Jack came super close to retaliating by getting Jenna's name tattooed on his jugular. Boy, was it a picnic talking him down from that one.

But he's been doing better since, and for the past week he's seemed pretty much sane.

So.

"You don't want to tattoo my name anywhere, do you?" Liz tests.

Jack snorts. "Please. I lost my assumed life partner and soon-to-be-born child, not my every last ounce of dignity and self-respect."

"Gee," Liz says, "thanks. And, um. Okay. Sure. I guess I'll go with you. As friends."
