100 Drabbles of Summer 2013: post 9

We’re almost done, just one more and I can stop gumming up your flist.
Main Table


Prompt: 16. breeze
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who; Doctor/Rose
Warnings, notes: sometimes post Doomsday and/or JE, AU, some kind of DW “science” involved

The air here carried the taste of memories and emotions, and it was heavy air that clung to a person as they walked through it. It stirred lightly as new rooms were opened, with their own scents and tastes added to the mix.

One of sadness that smelled like honey; another of regret and wildflowers, lilac primarily; another of tilled dirt and uncertainty.

And one of joy and apples. For a moment it was a welcome change, until the Doctor’s own memories were stirred; loss and regret where there was happiness. Because it was apple grass; and beneath that, roses.



Prompt: 22. fireflies
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who; Eleven, Cloen, Rose; Doctor/Rose
Warnings, notes: spoilers for JE and Ten’s regeneration (in that it happened)

He had to be careful, any sudden movement would cause the creatures to swarm him and then it was lights out Doctor. He eased backwards towards the nearest wall, but the door out of here was going to be another matter – sonicing it unlocked would count as attracting attention.

Suddenly the door on the other side of the room was thrown open and the Doctor barely had time to stare in disbelief when a hand shot out of the one beside him. “Run.”

Even if the touch felt different in his new hands, he’d know the feel of hers anywhere.



Prompt: 33. love
Fandom, charters/pairings: TVD; Elena/Elijah
Warnings, notes: future AU, some spoilers through s4

Elijah always signed the letters ‘Always and forever’ but he never said it to her face. The once or twice she asked him about it (not counting emotionless-bitch-Elena throwing it in his face) he shrugged it off and didn’t explain.

Eventually she figured it out for herself, it took her longer still (and another letter) to seek him out, slide her arms around his neck and say “I love you too.”

“It took you long enough,” he teased; he’d never regretted waiting for her and he wouldn’t start now.

“I figured ‘always and forever’ also meant that I had time.”



Prompt: 61.
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who/SG-1crossover world; Rose, Jackie Daniel
Warnings, notes: at this point in headcanon verse (mid SG-1 s7 timeframe) Rose had amnesia and working to rediscover her identity.

Small raindrops were still hitting Rose’s face as the sun broke through the clouds, and the faintest of rainbows took form. She barely had time to appreciate it before Jackie realized she was outside and came out to check on her. Rose may not remember who she was but she isn’t helpless, and she had wanted to go dancing in the rain.

She could tell from Daniel’s look that she did this kind of thing before; she wished she could remember it. She almost felt like she could...

Whether remembered of just understood, she knew he normally danced with her,



Prompt: 77.
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who/SG-1 crossover world; Rose/Daniel
Warnings, notes: closely follows (61) above, same note apply, somewhat dub-con

Rain, thunder, and lightning raged outside as Rose tossed and turned until her mind was made up. Once it was, she slipped out of bed and padded down the hall until she reached Daniel’s bedroom. Inside she continued on to lay down next to the man that had been her husband (still was, if only she could remember),

His eyes cracked open and blearily tried to focus on her. “Rose?” he asked sleepily.

He wasn’t very awake yet, which was good. She leaned in and kissed him solidly before either of them could think about why they shouldn’t do this.



Prompt: 65.
Fandom, charters/pairings: Castle/TVD; Alexis, others
Warnings, notes: no real spoilers for either fandom, fits in with the other pieces of this crossover

Alexis alternated between watching Jeremy and Kate spar and keeping an eye on the storm clouds rolling down the coast towards them. She loved watching storms gather; soaking in the cool, fresh-smelling air just before being driven inside. But Jeremy advised caution, that storms allowed normal vampires to roam free during the day, and paranoia crept into the rest of them.

So far, the only non-friendly vampire Alexis had met was Katherine, on the day Jeremy and Elena had been forced to admit the truth about their world, and Katherine had a daylight ring. So storm caution seemed more abstract.



Prompt: 74.
Fandom, charters/pairings: TVD; Elena/Matt, Bonnie
Warnings, notes: AU, no real spoilers

They were seven when Elena first passed Matt a red construction paper heart with “Do you like me?” written on it (it was a dare from Bonnie but she’d just been pushing things along). Elena’s parents got mad at them holding hands a few days later so they cooled things off for a while.

After graduation Matt was packing up the house and he found the heart stored in the bottom of a desk drawer. He finally answered “Always,” and sent it back to her.

Bonnie dared Elena not to fall for him all over again. Elena seldom refused dares.



Prompt: 90. Author's Choice
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who/SG-1 headcanon; Rose, others
Warnings, notes: ‘Window of Opportunity’ in crossover world so relevant spoilers for that

Whatever it was that held Rose’s mind on a straight line instead of being reset like the rest of the world wasn’t a perfect solution. Jack was going crazy with the repetition and even Teal’c was losing patience with the time loop, but now each time Rose’s head hurt more than the last.

At first, every “day” – once the explanations had been made –she and Daniel worked on solving this riddle but now part of their time was taken up with him worrying about her, so they got less done and made the solution feel further away with each cycle.



Prompt: 91. Author's Choice
Fandom, charters/pairings: Harry Potter; Harry/Hermione, others
Warnings, notes: ignores epilog...kind of, implied adultery

Mrs. Weasley used to make Harry more unique looking sweaters but the last couple years he’d gotten ones with the standard embroidered H. And for some reason this year she had made Harry’s dark red and Hermione’s maroon in only slightly different patterns to know they weren’t exactly the same.

In the dark it was very hard to tell the difference as they picked their sweaters up off the floor where they had landed haphazardly less than an hour earlier. It was only Hermione’s much better eyesight that prevented them from having to explain the mix up in the morning.



Prompt: 98. Author's Choice
Fandom, charters/pairings: Doctor Who/SG-1 crossover world; Rose/Daniel
Warnings, notes: early on in crossover world (id SG-1 s3 timeframe)

Daniel hadn’t been one to bother her about her past or connections, though Rose knew there had been times he wondered about it. And when he finally did just ask her flat out one day, relevant to nothing in the moment really, she realized she was reluctant to push him off.

Not just that; she wanted to tell him the truth, it was her story to tell and she should be free to tell it if she wanted to. He didn’t already know the story, but he would understand when he did why she didn’t share it with just anyone.
