Drabble meme, round, uh, something

[brigdh]

Yes! I've been wanting to do the drabble meme again for a while now- I think the last time I did it was back in June- but I just haven't had enough time. But now? Now I do! I mean, I've got stagesoflove and yaoi_challenge, but they leave me plenty of free time for one meme, especially since I have no papers due for quite some time.

So request something and I will write it for you! Any characters, any pairings, any fandoms, any prompt, as long as I know them.

Umm...Hakkai, doing his laughing-at-you-but-not thing at Sanzo about something?

If that makes sense. If it doesn't, please say so, and I'll try to be more coherent. :)

[ranalore.livejournal.com]

I would like Hisoka among the Shikigami, please, provided you've had a chance to read it.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Nah, I totally know what you mean.

[threewalls]

I am so predictable.

Tatsumi and Watari, some form of kink, though that can be as subtle (or not) as you like.

[rans-curse.livejournal.com]

*wiggles* Hello you new person. I found you through mistressrenet.

Uhm. A-ha!

Twoflower/Rincewind, subtle slash. xD Or, being who they are, not so subtle.

[rachelmanija.livejournal.com]

Something in Gaiden. Prompt: books and/or sakura.

By the way... have you ever seen Samurai Champloo?

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

No, I haven't, though everyone I know who's seen it has said good things. I really should watch it; I think the hip-hop would appeal to me.

[mistressrenet.livejournal.com]

Gojyo's hair.

[quixotic-sense.livejournal.com]

Tsuzuki/Hisoka, sandstorm. ♥

[shes-unreal.livejournal.com]

Can youuuuuuu write Avatar?

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmmmm, I don't know. I think it'd be really OOC if I tried.

[p-zeitgeist.livejournal.com]

For some reason this is sending my brain straight to the crack!fic place. So the following should be construed as an illustration of my insanity, and not necessarily as a request.

Unless, of course, you want to.

Hisoka/Sanzo. With guns, don't you think?

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Very much with guns, I'd think. Have you read geekerypokery's take on the same thing, though?

[p-zeitgeist.livejournal.com]

Have you read geekerypokery's take on the same thing, though?

I can't believe I have to say this, but no. How could I have missed a thing like that?

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

I had to have the author point it out to me before I saw it, either, but I'm so glad she did, because I adore it. It's here. (http://geekerypokery.livejournal.com/41566.html?thread=215646#t215646)

[rachelmanija.livejournal.com]

It reminds me of Saiyuki in some ways: cheerfully anachronistic (although in a very different way-- Samurai Champloo mixes extremely accurate portrayals of little-known period details and facts with hip-hop and police palaquins with flashing red lights on the top), snarky banter, a well-controlled mix of levity and extreme emotional intensity, a fine use of visual imagery, and complex developing character relationships.

[b-hallward.livejournal.com]

Hmm... Oh, I'm feeling mean today, so why not:

Sanzo dies. Goku doesn't.

[wildelamassu.livejournal.com]

I'm behind on reading stagesoflove, but that doesn't mean I can't request more, eh el-jay gods? Yes? XD;

Tenpou tells Goku a story he won't remember later.

[animadri.livejournal.com]

Hisoka/Tatsumi and shadows. Lame, huh? *g*

[aoyagi.livejournal.com]

::waves:: Hello, I'm sort of a n00b here ^^ I got referred by aluragayle.

Since pretty much everything else has been requested, I'd like to see something a little different. Like... smexy Watari/Tsuzuki ;) As much as I am a Tatari shipper, this doesn't bother me at all ^^ Up to you if you wanna take it.

Man, I need a real Sanzo/Hakkai icon

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Sanzo cursed into the still room, scowling at his newspaper as though he was contemplating its grisly death.

"Bad news?" Hakkai asked.

Sanzo paused, the anger leaving his face for what might, possibly, have been embarrassment. "No. It's nothing."

"You seemed upset."

Sanzo roughly folded the paper and tossed on the table. "Just let it go."

Hakkai slipped the paper out from under Sanzo's elbow, smiling at his glare and turning in his chair to shake it open quickly enough to escape Sanzo's grab.

"Ah. Six-letter word for 'monkey-like' is simian, Sanzo."

Sanzo snatched the paper back. "I knew that."

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Hey, new people are always welcome!

***

"Hey, hey, hey," Tsuzuki said, slinging his arm around Watari's shoulders and laughing moistly into the side of his face. "You have nice hair."

"Thanks!" Watari grinned, fingers slipping off his can of beer as he turned to Tsuzuki. "Do you wanna make out?"

Tsuzuki blinked at him, mouth a little slack. "Watari, I mean, you're my best friend. And we have fun, right? Yeah. You- you're so nice. And you sort of smell like strawberries.

Watari nodded, drunkenly serious. "It's my shampoo. Well?"

"And I really want to kiss you right now."

"Just watch out for 003. She bites."

[tadity.livejournal.com]

Ah ha...that was cute. :)
Thank you!

[elihice.livejournal.com]

Sanzo and Goku seen through Hakkai and/or Gojyo's eyes.

::squeeeee!!:: This is so cute!! I love it! Thank you!! ::hearts::

Let's go old school... BtVS, Dawn/Spike -- keep it G/PG-rated, dearie. ^.~

...if you're still taking requests. ^^;;

Whee, I don't think I've ever written Discworld before

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

"This is a pride parade," Rincewind explained, wondering if it was possible to blush yourself to death. He was staring intently at his feet, like any decent person would, but Twoflower seemed instead to be doing rather a lot of staring and gaping. "It's, ah, an ancient and... um, proud tradition..."

A young man on one of the floats, whose outfit left it quite clear that he had a rather big reason for being proud, tossed some necklaces made of flowers at them. One landed on Twoflower's head, who smiled innocently. "Look! I've been lei-ed."

Rincewind groaned.

Nothing wrong with predictablity

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Shadows, Watari thought, were very useful. Softer than more conventional materials, they were light and delicate enough that sometimes the only way he knew they were there was by looking. But even so they were stronger than, say, handcuffs, and tended not to scrape the skin in that annoying way.

It was fascinating, really. He wondered how to convince Tatsumi to let him try a few experiments-

"Watari?"

"Yeah?"

"Are you bored?" Tatsumi asked, setting his hand in a particularly distracting spot. "Do try to pay attention."

"That's not hard." Watari grinned and moved where he could. "Unlike other things."

Re: Whee, I don't think I've ever written Discworld before

That is so perfect.

Re: Whee, I don't think I've ever written Discworld before

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Re: Whee, I don't think I've ever written Discworld before

[assume-a-virtue.livejournal.com]

xD That was wonderful!

*g*

Thanks.

Re: Nothing wrong with predictablity

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

No worries.

[shes-unreal.livejournal.com]

I will totally have to force you to watch it then. Because, you know, I have to drag everyone I know kickin and screaming into my fandoms. :-p

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Apparently I'm in a mean mood, too, as this came fully-formed while I was walking home.

***

Sanzo doesn't die in battle. Sanzo doesn't die young at all, despite everyone's expectations. When the years leave him weaker, he treats them like personal insults. Even the final illness makes him furious; ironically, that gives him the strength to drag out the inevitable a few more days.

Goku can't resent the extra years, months, days, though Sanzo hates them. Not even the last seconds, with Sanzo drowning in air, clenching Goku's hand, looking- for once- nervous. Goku doesn't care if it's selfish; he wanted that time.

They burn the body at dawn. The sunrise is dim against his memories.

[b-hallward.livejournal.com]

Oh, man, this is just what I wanted. *eg* I think Sanzo-growing-old is becoming a dangerous new kink of mine.

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

You know it would piss him off, and who can resist getting to see an angry Sanzo? Besides, it'd make all the rest of them so happy.

[b-hallward.livejournal.com]

Hee. So true. And I think there's just something about watching Sanzo run up against a force that he can't beat, but won't bow to. How he'd rage against it and go down fighting. *sigh* So much Sanzo love, and so little time...

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

*flails incoherently* I think you just managed to hit my bullet-proof character kink, right there. That's it, that's it exactly, and phrased so lovely, too.

Re: Nothing wrong with predictablity

[threewalls]

I don't suppose I could ask you to post this snippet in a separate post, back-dated if you prefer, so that I can list it on mc_recs?

I usually do it all in the memories of that community, and that only lets you record a post, not a comment within a post.

A title would be nice, but not essential.

Re: Nothing wrong with predictablity

[wordsofastory.livejournal.com]

Sure! I'm very glad you like it enough to rec it.

Do you mind if I throw it up with the other finished drabbles, or do you need a seperate post?

Re: Nothing wrong with predictablity

[threewalls]

A separate post would make it easier for me, since you asked, but it's not essential. Will there be a title?

Re: Nothing wrong with predictablity

You probably saw it come up on your flist, but just in case: New Uses (http://wordsofastory.livejournal.com/218316.html)
