jadesfire: Bright yellow flower (Writing - Mike swallowing books)
[personal profile] jadesfire
The cold has added a cough to its list of tricks, so I'm spending the day in bed, under a duvet and a big fluffy blanket, with a few stuffed dogs and a gorilla (also stuffed, just in case you were worried). The upside of this is that I should be fine for work tomorrow. The downside is Oh Good Grief So Bored. I've got the restlessness that I always get when a story is finished but I don't know what to write next, where I sort of wander round vaguely prodding things in the hope they'll react. It's not working so far.

Therefore (and since I haven't done one for ages) I'm throwing open a drabble fest. I'm definitely out of the drabble-writing habit, and it'd give me a complete break while my brain re-charges.

Prompt me, people! I'll write for Doctor Who, Torchwood, Stargate: Atlantis, Discworld, House (S1&2 only, sorry), Sapphire and Steel and Buffy. If you know I know another fandom, feel free to ask, although I make no promises :) Just give me at least two of fandom/characters/prompt and I'll see what I can do.

If anyone needs me in the meantime, I'll be over here downing hot lemon and honey like it's going out of fashion. Hope everyone else is having better days!

*HUGS* get better!

Ooh, and prompts! Um, can I request Discworld, please? Vimes (and co) teaming up with Susan against the things that go bump in the night.

*hugs you* I'm having the cold but it seems to be staying at bay during the day, so I'll be off to work this afternoon.

Um. PRompt.

Either Buffy or Sapphire and Steel.

Prompt: "For the first time there's a light at the end of the tunnel."

"It's Hellfire."

Of course that is Supernatural but as you don't write that...

Booo cold! I hope the rest does you good. I just came down with a cold last night and I'd say "WTH internet contagion?!" but I know where mine came from. :)

*cuddles* Feel better soon! Although I would recommend not drinking too much honey and lemon - I made that mistake while I was ill, and while my throat felt good afterwards, I was slightly buzzed :)

Hmm, prompt. Ooh! Jack/Hywel, mirror.

Aw hon, I hope you feel better soon!

I've heard that writing Morgan/Garcia drabbles can be very therapeutic *nods*. If you're feeling up to it, that is!
