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!

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

I have your prompt to thank for the water all over my computer screen right now. That is what the mental image of Josh watching Glenn Beck causes.

Caroline told him she figured there were two ways to go; the first was all angsty and blah and the second was useful. They were tougher and had instincts and senses suited for hunting. They didn't want to kill innocent people. They didn't want to be monsters.

There was also that thing where if he gave her one tiny nip, her undeadness became real deadness - Caroline brushed that off easily, literally from her new outfit.

Tyler wasn't exactly pleased to be presented with a black hoodie and face mask, but he put it on. She pointed her cellphone lens at him and yelled "Cheese!"

"You know, if this ends up on your facebook, it's no longer a disguise," he grumbled, slapping the mask to his face and standing still long enough for her to get one blurry shot.

"You moved," Caroline complained. "Twitchy!"

He rolled his eyes, but he didn't peel off the hoodie. He even tied her mask for her without pulling her hair.

"We're going to patrol Mystic Falls and protect people from other creature types - but what are we going to tell them when they see us hanging out together all the time," Tyler said pointedly. They had hung out a lot, but with Matt as a buffer.

She flipped her hood up and gave him a funny little vampire leer, complete with a kittenish wiggle of her hips. "I'll just say you're putting out!"

Dollhouse – Topher – short attention span

Dollhouse - Topher - Aced the Tests, Never Did the Homework

[kay-obsessive.livejournal.com]

Topher Brink spent the entirety of his high school years completely and utterly bored, and as a result, his grades were solidly on the B- side of average and no better. After graduation, he left behind a gaggle of frustrated teachers, all pushing him to channel some of his brilliance into school work instead of his own little experiments, and began applying for student loans and summer jobs.

He was not hand-picked by Rossum like most of their programmers. He did not receive the scholarship from a mysterious benefactor like Bennett Halverson did.

He did not go to the Tucson Institute of Technology.

Instead, Topher was already halfway through grad school by the time he fell on the radar of one Adelle DeWitt, who preferred to make her own selections without her employers’ domineering input. As the challenges increased, so did his interest, and he stumbled into some rather fascinating discoveries and achievements. He still got distracted by his own personal pursuits often enough that, by raw numbers, he was nowhere near the league Rossum required. But DeWitt knew potential when she saw it and kept a careful watch as he completed his studies.

She still had her doubts when she brought him in for the initial interview. He fidgeted in his seat, his mind wandered from her questions, and she turned around once to find him hastily putting something back on her desk with a guilty expression. Perhaps she had merely mistaken eccentricity for genius.

But when she told him what this really was, handed him the contract to look over, Topher Brink fell completely silent. He leaned forward, brow furrowed, and she could see his attention narrow to a small, intense focal point.

DeWitt’s smile was small and satisfied. “Would you like to see how the process works?”

[fragmentedsky.livejournal.com]

never written lost fanfic, but giving this a try anyway.

----

All the paperwork is going to be a pain in the ass. And the press attention has been even worse - she’s now the survivor of two notorious plane crashes, and the time she spent back on the island was more than enough for every single fucking news outlet on the planet to figure out that five of the Oceanic Six were on that second plane, and that she’s the only one who came back.

She’s barely seen anyone but Claire since they landed. Claire, who clings to her like she actually knows what to expect and can handle it. I sucked at this world, Kate wants to tell her. I always kind of did. What makes you think I can help you?

In a way, she’s perpetually on edge when Claire is there. Not because the blonde woman tried to kill her, but because of what came before. She feels guilty for leaving Claire in the woods, and that kind of annoys her. What choice did she really have at the time?

Doesn’t she have enough to feel guilty about?

She wants some time alone, more than almost anything, but there’s this endless parade of consequences even though she’s locked up in the hospital while they fuss over her shoulder. She appreciates that they have clean gauze here and all, but the medical system had far less pointless bureaucratic nonsense on the island. Plus, the staff was cuter.

She winces, just a little, and pulls the over-starched white hospital sheets up to her chin. It hasn’t hit her that he’s gone, and the anticipation is grinding her gut like hamburger meat.

“Hey, Freckles.”

The nickname is back and for a tiny part of her, all the years are undone - he’s impossible and gorgeous and needs a shave and she kind of hates him and their biggest problem is polar bears. He’s standing in the doorway of her hospital room, glancing periodically back into the hallway, with that same look he had on his face when he asked her to play I Never back when they were hunting his bovine would-be stalker.

(She has the wild, momentary impulse to find somebody’s urine cup and dump it on one of his spare shirts, just to see if he remembers. The idea is laughably gross, but probably not as much as it should be.)

“What are you doing, Sawyer?”

He grins again. “Bustin’ you out. C’mon, there’s somewhere I wanna go.”

She knows, on some level, that he’s grown up so much in the time she spent away. That as her life was falling apart in the real world his was coming together and blooming on the island, and she wants to resent it but mostly she can only marvel at it. And lurking underneath is this ache; she can feel how he’s rubbed raw like a buzz under her skin, but he’s not ready to deal with it on top of the culture shock so in the meantime they just fall back to old habits, old times.

The responsible part of her (if there ever was one, without Aaron) tells her she should probably stay put. Fuck that. She sneaks over to where her duffle bag is, slips into a T-shirt and jeans. He makes a show of not looking, smirking to himself and shifting his weight playfully back and forth between his feet. As soon as she’s got shoes on he pulls her out of the room, down the back stairwell. They make a game of it, walking primly past the glass windows on the doors leading to each floor they pass and then thundering down the steps between.
