Stolen from girlfromsouth:

Give me 1000 comments in this entry. Or whatever, really. YOU, in particular, don't have to supply the whole 1000, but a tiny contribution would be nice. Then let me know if you post this in your journal and I'll return the favor.

Dudes, so this is your chance to spam me with anything! Pictures, lyrics, the word SPAM over and over. Feel free to tell me something about yourself, or screen your comments. Do whatever you want! It's all up to you.

Okay, so I realise 1000 is a tall number so just spam away and we'll see where we get up to. Please entertain me!

Entertain me while I tackle inability to make words come out right and try to get some of these ficathon entries done... You could tell me what strange pairings you're into, since I've been thinking lots about unconventional shipping today. Or anything. Go on.

Also contemplating a game of tag where the first person writes a drabble - 100 words or less - with a pairing and a word or requirement at the end, and the next person writes that one. Might try to instigate a game of that later tonight if the ficathoning goes badly.

ETA: Okay, the drabble tag's here, come and play.

Gunn. Trust

[leni-ba.livejournal.com]

Oh, pretty. Spike n chains should have a warning. ;)



Gunn learned about trust as a little kid. It was always there, staring up at him from Alonna’s eyes. Her trust meant that he was worthly.

Then came the gang and trust was a gift to be given exclusively to those who could guard his back as well as their own. It didn’t matter whose life he saved or who freed him from certain death, everything was about delaying the next burial’s date.

Angel came next and Gunn had learned to trust him too. But something changed in the last years. Gunn wonders when he began doing the back-stabbing himself.

It was always there, under the surface. He had tried to hide it all these years, even his friends didn’t know of the other soul that occupied his mind. When it spoke to him, Xander ignored it as well as he could, but there was always the fear that it would awaken. That he would lose himself and go wild, like he had once before. As he surveys Willow’s body lying in an awkward position, covered in the red liquid that fills his nostrils with delight, he knows its too late. There’s nothing he can do to stop it now.

Tara. Food poisoning.

Tara moaned. So this happened after eating too many chocolate cookies in one night, you felt near-death the next morning and your guilty lover only watched.

“Don’t be silly.” Willow smiled soothingly, holding her hand and patting it quietly.

Tara just glared.

“Okay, they were my cookies.” Willow paused. “For the whole gang. No wonder you got sick.”

“They were too good.” Tara pouted. “I’m never eating chocolate cookies. Ever.”

Willow laughed. “Of course you will. I’ll make them and you won’t resist me.”

Tara groaned, tightening the hand around Willow’s. But she had to admit the redhead was right.

Angelus, Spike

The way Harmony’s voice had trembled during their phone call somehow told him that this was not another ‘I broke a nail’ emergency. He had to climb the fifty floors up to the lobby, since the electric had been cut off. One of his sire’s favorite tricks. Finally he reached the right floor, Spike opened the door to find the leftover bodies of a massacre. Walking among the dead, he wondered how he could have found this pleasant at one time. Finding Fred among the fallen, Spike knelt down to feel her pulse. There was none. Angelus was indeed back.

*purrs* Angelus breaking havoc at W&H, one of my very favourite dreams.


Pretty boy, look at you, broken and yet so pretty. Will I always pick the pieces of their broken toys? My angel didn’t care enough for mommy. Left her all alone to die, I had to go and make her better. I will make you better too, you won’t remember that princess casting you aside.

Pretty boy, pretty doll, you will do for everyone I’ve lost.

Why come back now? If you wanted your cheerleader, there are bad news. She fell too, I wasn’t there to glue her back together. I’m afraid you won’t see her through your new eyes.

Re: raining cats and dogs

I now officially pronounce my last fic (Faith/Illyria AU) to have been set in the rain!verse. Just for the hell of this drabble.

Leather snakes round basic black and it’s so harsh and bleak but comfort is where you find it so Faith grabs hold. Raining, still raining in this place with so many words for water that they soak into her mind as her hair hangs heavier. Raining, pouring, old man is snoring, raining cats and dogs and no let up not ever and it hurts. Blank blue eyes stare at her with incomprehension and that’s good, because she doesn’t know what she’s doing either. Mechanical movements are taught new tricks and she guides claws and shows them how to soften into caresses.

um, a pairing you say? Mother!Amy and the coach
