Desperate times and all that.

I have no words to describe my boredom right now. I have no words to describe anything. I'm at the stalemate, and I'm tempted to do that Give me a prompt and I'll write you a two-line story for it.

Yeah, alright, hit me. First fifteen in the door get the prize.* Anything I've already written before is game, no Hermione. Look, I'll even show you how it goes. Example: Request: SGA, Sheppard/McKay (which, um, you could request too even though I don't watch the show)


"So, McKay, what's all this UST business?" Sheppard did that thing he did with his mouth when he was trying to play smart. Rodney wasn’t fooled. "Is it a new strand of the ATA gene?"

"It stands for Unresolved Sexual Tension, Major."

"Lieutenant Colonel."

"Please," Rodney scoffed. "With all this tension I could call you Susan, and you wouldn't care."

"What tension?"

"The sexual tension between us."

"What sexual tension between us?"

"See, that's why it's unresolved! Because you can't admit it's there!"*


*If you're late, you might be able to bribe me with music. I'm partial to Eric B and Rakim, Tom Jones, New Edition, Doug E Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew.

***Okay, that was about ten lines too long, but serialkarma is feeling poorly, so I'm being nice.


ETA: OKAY, offer closed!

Eeeeee! You wrote SGA! I love it!!

OK, a prompt for you. *tries to think really, really fast, and fails*

Brokeback Mountain, Jack/Ennis, tin.

Yes, I wrote SGA twice, and judging by the requests it's about to be three times. Egads. I've been brainwashed by all the brilliant writing and the porn, oh won't someone create a new fandom already? Ahem. For you:

Since Jack has stopped sleeping with the sheep and started sharing his bedroll with Ennis, Ennis has become a better man, a happier man. It's not that Ennis is drinking less, or working more, or that the weather has improved at all -- it's just that in those first moments of waking with Jack next to him, anything is possible for Ennis. Before his eyes are wide open, Ennis could be anywhere with Jack -- but he's always with Jack, and as long as his eyes are closed they can have everything. They can have this, and it's not a lot, but it has to be enough for when his eyes are open.

That is simply perfect - it's so close to being happy, yet underneath is that knowledge that this is all they can ever have.

This is beautiful and light and very depressing if you know what happened. Because its so *right* for the book/movie. This was brilliant.
