Internet, I want to write drabbles.* I just don't know what I want to write them about.
Um. Prompt me?
Fandoms I've written for, in alphabetical order;
Aladdin (1992)
Azumanga Daioh
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Dark Crystal (1982)
Fruits Basket (I just finished volume 10 of the manga)
Halloween (1978)
Princess and the Frog (2009)
Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Ranma 1/2
Reservoir Dogs (1992)
Shikabane Hime
Spirited Away
Twin Peaks
Stump the Author is welcome. It is so welcome that you don't even have to stick to the list. (NB: Whenever someone says: "I saw the most violent, disgusting horror move ever and thought of you!" and I am ready to defend myself as having standards, it turns out that not only have i seen the movie in question, it was probably my favorite movie of the year). The ultimate Stump the Author is porn. You may prompt it, if you don't mind terrible porn. But at least it will be over soon.
*By which I mean "things that are exactly 100 words long, except that different word counters give me different word counts, because they are bastards."

Date: 2011-07-07 07:30 pm (UTC)"The Dragon? Are you sure?" But Azula sees the hunger in Mother's eyes even as she tries to hide it, hears Toph's you-have-done-something-clever laughter in her head.
"What would you think if I were an admiral's daughter-in-law?" Azula asks three turns later, when Mother plays a rose.
"I think you can be what you like. I also think you're trying to distract me." She doesn't sound unhappy, but as with everything about Mother, it's hard to tell. (Azula still looks for the wrinkles and streaks of gray in her hair sometimes, to be sure). Still, the White Lotus edges closer.
Four turns later, Azula moves her Jasmine for something to do. "And what if my wife were a loudmouth peasant?"
"Really, Azula." Mother's rose takes her jasmine. "The Bei Fongs are one of the wealthiest families in the Earth Kingdom."
Azula hasn't expected this. She suddenly feels like she did when Toph showed her how to control people with weakness...or kindness, or whatever it is: open and helpless, assaulted by all the things she has years of practice keeping out. But still, still, the White Lotus creeps.
And then. Then.
"What would you think if my wife did this?" Azula crushes the White Lotus with her rock.
"My dear," says Mother, "I think that would be marvelous." She sounds happy, Azula thinks.

Date: 2011-07-10 03:59 pm (UTC)Ursa would probably try to "fix" Azula's mental illness at first--but Azula has no patience for sane people's Feelings about her disability. (And she lives with Zuko--gosh, I am mean). Also, in my head, she and Toph are the ones who find/rescue Ursa--either as something they set out to do (to get Zuko to shut up, maybe) or accidentally when they're on some other adventure.
Re: Warning: contains babbling
Date: 2011-07-10 08:33 pm (UTC)I would read that fic.
I would read it a whole lot.
Re: Warning: contains babbling
Date: 2011-07-11 06:43 pm (UTC)Should I also admit that she then goes on adventures with them? Which may lead to problems like: "How am I going to make out with my girlfriend if ZUKO'S MOTHER is here?"
Re: Warning: contains babbling
Date: 2011-07-12 11:24 pm (UTC)In short, you should totally write that.
I'm almost 3000 words into the Getting Together Story. It's at the stage of, "Sleeping with Zuko's sister is the worst idea I've ever had. She probably kills and eats you after sex. Much better to fight with her."

Date: 2011-07-06 04:55 pm (UTC)The dungeons are easier than this. Than her.
He tries to pretend she's Oli's, but there's no mistaking the dimple in her smile. When Stephanie asks if he's ready now, look what she bought at Frederick's--
"I can't. I just can't."
The doors are locked and the blinds are open, but still she comes, a little girl forever. Who loves her daddy.
In Paris and Belgium and Amsterdam, he'd kept Stephanie locked away safe. The girls
(on Alex's phone)
in the brothels were just pussy. They weren't his Stephanie.
Edward Saladhands isn't her daddy, which terrifies him most of all.

Date: 2011-07-07 10:29 pm (UTC)Exquisitely terrifying.

Date: 2011-07-06 09:53 am (UTC)Closer to a doubble (PG, Judith, Michael, OFC)
Date: 2011-07-07 01:22 am (UTC)Kathy doesn't look up from painting Judith's toenails a deep shade of purple. "Enh. She'd make us play with her and do her nails." Michael was fun to babysit--quiet and out of the way.
"Yeah, I guess. I'm glad you could come." Then the phone rings, and Judith says, "Shit! That's him!"
"I'll get it." Kathy doesn't mean answer it--she isn't supposed to be here--but she brings the base and everything as close to Judith as she can, while Judith scoots backwards. Judith takes the receiver. "Dad?...Hello?....Hello?" She rolls her eyes, but Kathy can tell she's disappointed...and something else. "Nobody," she says as she hangs up.
"Jerk."
Judith's nails aren't quite dry when she says, "Michael, what are you doing?" She runs to the kitchen anyway--the kitchen? How did he get there?--and grabs a pair of scissors out of his hand. "No, this is dangerous! You are going to bed, do you hear me?"
Michael doesn't whine, but Judith doesn't appreciate it. "You'll be the death of me, I swear!"
Drama queen, Kathy thinks, rolling her eyes.

Not at all what I was expecting, but what an AWESOME surprise! This so much better than anything I could have dreamed up.
Re: Closer to a doubble (PG, Judith, Michael, OFC)
Date: 2011-07-07 11:46 pm (UTC)What can I say? I have a fondness for wee!Michael. And call-forwards. Also, Judith. (Poor Judith). And horrible puns most of all. :D
I'm glad you liked it! It was fun!

I wonder how things would have turned out for Freddy if Michael had lived on Elm Street? *sporfle*

OH. MY. GOD. This is genius.

Wee!Michael, Freddy (V for violence, 277 words)
Date: 2011-07-08 06:56 pm (UTC)This is a hard question. Michael likes Coco Wheats, and the sharp letter his name starts with; he likes his pajamas with dinosaurs on them (they're in the wash, so he has to wear the ones with the cars); he likes it when his parents are gone and Judith orders pizza, and when the big girls hang upside down on the monkey bars and forget they aren't wearing shorts under their skirts. He likes Walter Cronkite and putting his hand on Mommy's tummy to feel the baby kick. (He imagines it's the beating of her heart--he knows it's a girl baby, because everyone knows it goes girl, boy, girl--and can't wait to crush it).
He doesn't know how he feels about the funhouse. (He only wishes he was wearing his dinosaur pajamas, because the car ones are kind of stupid--especially when you see twenty of them all around, which is as high as he can count). But he really likes the guy in the stripey sweater.
"Isn't it pretty? Couldn't you just die?"
Shouldn't your puns be better? Michael thinks.
"Look at all the Michaels!" stripey-sweater says. "You don't like it when people look at you, do you, Michael?"
Suddenly, all the Michaels reach behind themselves as he puts his hand, flat, on the mirror behind him. He's like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat--or, you know, an ice-pick out of a mirror. Then he makes an M in Stripey Sweater's chest--big, because he only learned how last week--and admires his work.
Yes, he likes Stripey Sweater really a lot.

Date: 2011-07-08 09:05 pm (UTC)Ah iz in lurrrrrv with your wee!Michael.
*huggles*Meeps! *takes ice-pick away & huggles*PS:
Will you have my children? ;D
Re: Wee!Michael, Freddy (V for violence, 277 words)
Date: 2011-07-09 12:19 am (UTC)Ah lurrvs him, too! I want all wee!Michael's adventures. Maybe he goes with Linus to see the Great Pumpkin on Halloween. Or he gets a Good Guy doll for his birthday. Maybe he goes to his friend Damien's birthday party. Maybe the monster in his closet is hiding from him.
*Coco Wheats and pizza for wee!Michael*
Will you have my children? ;D
Yes! But they will all be the Antichrist :D :D :D
Re: Wee!Michael, Freddy (V for violence, 277 words)
Date: 2011-07-09 01:49 am (UTC)Michael gives Damien a Good Guy doll -- and the birthday party is a sleep-over. *giggles insanely*
Maybe the monster in his closet is hiding from him.
LOL, I'd believe that. OMG! Halloween at Monster's Inc. ROFLMAO
OMFG, you are a genius!
Date: 2011-07-09 01:57 am (UTC)He had to spend weeks selling lemonade to save up the money. And, you know, scaring the pizza guy.
And Chucky plays Hide the Soul, and can't find one in either of them. :D
Re: Wee!Michael, Freddy (V for violence, 277 words)
