2:25 am - FIC: A Really Short Halloween Story with a Really Long Title, Van Helsing
I've been sitting here stumped on other things, waiting for a pumpkin cheesecake to finish baking so I can go to bed! And I realized I hadn't played silly with the boys for a while. When I write these little sillinesses, it's completely for fun and sanity's sake, totally for me. But it's nice when it makes someone else smile, too. :D

A Really Short Halloween Story with a Really Long Title, or:

12:11 am - FIC: In Bloom
This was written for the birthday challenge at [info]dave_uncensored. (Today, 9/21, is David Wenham's birthday, and there was a fiction challenge to commemmorate.) The request by [info]ravenrosen was: Faramir/Aragorn, something light and humorous with some fun and laughter along with the sex.

Right after I started this, we lost an employee in our department and my time to devote to it was slashed. (Haha, pun.) So it feels a bit thin to me (and I hate the lack of editing and the rush) but I got it posted about ten until midnight, so there. I hope it came close to what she was looking for. Why I decided to do it while trying to put finishing touches on a much older story, I don't know. I'm always doing that kind of stuff to myself. :P As it was, it was big fun to write, and my first fiction foray into Faramir/Aragorn.

Title: In Bloom
Author: Cousin Shelley
Category: LOTR FPS, Faramir/Aragorn.
Rating: Perhaps a hard R, for a little sex. No warnings to speak of.
Word count: About 3200

11:12 pm - FIC: 2 drabbles
Last two drabbles requested in the Drabble Meme (what fun) go together somewhat.

The first is for [info]xandri who wanted Van Helsing with the prompt 'Battleaxe' in the drabble meme. Fits the [info]fanfic100 prompt 'Outsides.'

Drabble #1 )

This one is for [info]azdiva who wanted Carl/Van Helsing. Pretty much follows the one above, and fits the [info]fanfic100 prompt 'Fixed.' Sorry it's less / than just Carl and Van Helsing.

Drabble #2 )

11:04 am - FIC: Persuasion, Van Helsing
For [info]thulemir who requested Hugh Jackman/David Wenham in the drabble meme, but thankfully said she'd settle for Van Helsing/Carl instead. *loves on her* Also loosely fits the 'Winter' prompt for [info]fanfic100 (yay!)

Persuasion

Carl grunted at the hardness of the ground beneath them and the thinness of the blankets above them. Despite the fire, the blankets, his robes and the warmth of the man he held, Carl shivered.

"Take your clothes off, Carl."

"No, I'll freeze!" Despite his protests, he groaned when a surprisingly warm hand slid down his stomach. Carl felt something pressing against his hip. "How can you do that when it's this cold?"

"I don't do it." Van Helsing rubbed against him as he pulled at his clothing. "You do."

Carl thought his smile looked almost wicked in the firelight.

5:18 pm - FIC: Rules of Engagement, Forever Knight
This is for [info]1_mad_squirrel who doesn't have to write anything re: the Drabble Meme. Also loosely fits the 'Too Much' prompt at [info]fanfic100 (yay!)

Rules of Engagement

The smack of flesh on flesh echoed too long, long after the sting on the back of his hand faded, and Nick suspected he'd hear that slap for the rest of his unnaturally long life. He cursed himself for letting LaCroix bait him into losing control.

LaCroix rose, hurtling himself into the air to land in front of Nick, where he'd been standing when one word too many had prompted Nick to lash out.

Nick, braced for a fight, didn't expect LaCroix to smile.

LaCroix only raised an eyebrow, breathed the words more than spoke them.

"Now we're getting somewhere."

4:43 pm - FIC: Unconditional, Van Helsing
This is for [info]melissa_actress who requested Wolvie or VH, something angsty, in the Drabble Meme. :) Also loosely fits the 'Too Much' prompt for [info]fanfic100 (yay!)

Unconditional

Carl talked about guilt, how Anna was happy now, how she was home. Van Helsing told him to let it go.

Concerned, Carl didn't.

Van Helsing shook him and snarled. "Shut up, Carl!" He saw the wolf in himself then, the pain in Carl's eyes reflected it back to him.

Later, the wind took his hat and Carl wordlessly caught it and handed it to him. The simple gesture broke Van Helsing, and when Carl put his arms around him and patted his back, he loved Carl then, for giving him more than God would ever grant--forgiveness not asked for.

2:58 am - FIC: Thorns, Winterspew with the Campfire
This is for [info]watergal who requested Dewey/Carmand in the Drabble Meme. After rewatching the movie and rereading the pertinent parts of the book, I went more with the movie version. I like their condensed interactions better, I think. And Antonio. Guh.

Thorns

Once Louis was safe in the carriage and Armand sent it racing away from the burning Teatre de Vampires, Armand turned to him and cupped the back of his neck. "You killed them all."

"Yes." Louis could feel the excitement coursing through Armand. Armand whom he loved, whom he hated, who killed Claudia to keep him.

"To avenge the little one."

"Yes." He knew his rage, his despair, was like blood to Armand, sustaining him in the way a thousand, a million kills no longer could.

"She was monstrous."

"And beautiful."

Armand smiled, leaned closer. "Yes. As are we all."

2:45 am - FIC: Identity, LoTR
This is for [info]ion_bond who requested something with Elrond and Aragorn in the Drabble Meme, and damn it was difficult.

Identity

"They are here, and ready for the council." Elrond put his hands on the man's shoulders and squeezed. "It should become known to all now that you are Isildur's heir. That you are the hope of Middle Earth, the future king of Men. That you will lead. That you must."

Aragorn lowered his head in concession. "You can tell them who I am. But they may not believe it."

Elrond stepped aside as if to pass, but paused in front of him and leaned close without touching. "They are not the ones who need convincing." He straightened and walked on.

2:40 am - FIC: Truths, Descendants of Darkness (Yami no Matsuei)
This is for [info]ddrfaeryspice who requested Tsuzuki/Muraki in the Drabble Meme

Truths

"I understand your hatred, but such lack of gratitude." Muraki gestured at the green-eyed boy who stood several feet away. "If I were not a killer, you would not have him."

Tsuzuki looked at Hisoka's expression of concern and fear, and felt shamed by the truth in Muraki's words. And hated him more for them.

Muraki smiled sweetly. "It's all right. Love, hate--it doesn't matter. Emotions felt that strongly all become one thing." He brushed his fingertips over Tsuzuki's forehead. "Obsession. I'm in here. That's enough, for now."

He winked at Hisoka and strode away, white coat billowing behind him.

7:47 pm - Drabble meme
Every person on your flist gets to request a drabble (real drabble: 100 words exactly) from you. In return, they have to post this in their journal and write a drabble for you. Post all fandoms in which you're willing to write.

Your friends can pick a relationship, a story arc, a missing scene, or pretty much anything they want, unless the author has previously mentioned that they will not write it. They comment with what they want, and you write drabbles and post it in your LiveJournal.


Since I write in so few, I've listed some that I 'think' I could probably write in. If you want something obscure or not listed that you know I might be familiar with and/or willing to try, feel free to ask. I'm familiar with most vampire stuff, horror/suspense movies, things of that ilk.

Forever Knight
Van Helsing
LOTR
Starsky & Hutch (series)
X-Men (movies)
Night Court
Star Wars (Original 3 + Phantom Menace are all I've seen)
BtVS (have seen most of the series)
Descendants of Darkness
Highlander (have seen most of it)
The Sentinel (have seen most of it)
Pick a Hugh Jackman or David Wenham movie, or any movie really--if I've seen it, I'll try it. I'm easy.
Edited to add: Star Trek (I can't believe I forgot my first fandom, evah)

10:29 pm - FIC: Monday's Child, Tuesday's Child. Forever Knight
Title: Monday's Child, Tuesday's Child
Prompt: #28: Children
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG
Author's Notes: Sometime during the Renaissance


LaCroix watched his children, such a pair they were. A dark seductress, once a whore used by men. And a shining knight, once a Crusader used by men. And God, LaCroix supposed. They were both of his blood now, and yet they were so different from each other. Different from him.

Janette felt the fabric of her gown and smiled at LaCroix like an overjoyed child.

Nicholas watched the tailor accidentally prick his finger, watched the crimson drop well at the tip. He stiffened and looked at LaCroix as if he'd just been struck.

LaCroix smiled, sighed, cherished them both.

10:14 pm - FIC: At First Sight, Forever Knight
Title: At First Sight
Prompt: #40: Sight
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG, slashiness
Author's Notes: A fateful night in 1228


The way Janette talked of Nicholas, how she wanted him, made LaCroix jealous, then amused him. She'd found a pet. Janette was denied even her freedom as a mortal, so LaCroix found he could deny her nothing she truly desired.

If she could entice this man of God into her bed, he would be a gift for his beautiful daughter

Then he saw Nicholas, such a look of want on his fair face. Nicholas seemed surprised, fearful, but still curious. He was so bright and warm…

LaCroix never told Janette that he had intended to let her bring him across.
