Tin Man Drabble Prompt!

Jan 20, 2008 16:32

Okay, my god's I have the writer's block, I have little over half of the next chapter of Binary Means Two done and I'm horribly, horribly stuck. I need drabbles! I need to snap out of this funk! So I'm having a little happy fun times over at my journal and hopefully will get the next chapter up on Wednesday ( Read more... )

Yay! I love these. *grin* Gives me a chance to toss those little image bunnies out for others so I don't fall into writing in yet another fandom!

Glitch and/or Ambrose/Cain (duh!). Cain finds Glitch (or Ambrose) in a hallway of the palace, dying (injured, sick, etc). Other characters are welcome - Raw and DG to help, others to find out what happened. Preferences: Slash, no death fic. Have fun!

I so could not decide what to do with this prompt, like eight million things came up. I hope this is close to what you wanted! <3

Cain paused when a muffled whump echoed through his walls. He blinked for a second, standing in the middle of his bedroom in the palace, before the book he was holding hit the floor and he was scrambling to yank his shoes on. What in the Gray Gale was that? It sounded like it came from the Eastern hall and that was a bad, bad sign ( ... )

Eeeee! *hugs shiny little drabble* Thank you, it's lovely! And the fact that 8 million things came up is a good thing!

Yee! I'm glad you liked it! I might have to do a couple of versions of this idea when I have time. I got some really cool bunnies. <3

Sorry to hear your having such bad week. Let's see, how about a drabble from Cain's point of view about the hours (days?) of Glitch saving his life in Demilo's truck. What does he remember? How does he feel about it? I've loved your stuff, I hope you post more soon!

I love this one, so much. I had been trying super hard to not even touch the truck scene because it's been done a bunch, but now I'm like 'ooooh'.He's watching Glitch putter around the edge of the firelight picking up stones and poking at bits of grass with a long stick he'd found. DG was gone! They had to... Cain sighed. It would be a losing battle trying to get Glitch to continue on to the witches tower in the dark. It was probably a good idea to rest. They'd made it off of the Northern Island. At least it was warm here. A memory shivers through him and he stares into the fire. He knew what cold was, he didn't know that cold could get so cold it turned into nothing ( ... )

Oh my God, how did I miss this???? I apologize for not commenting sooner. It got lost in my email somehow. (I tract comments) "Glitch's warm hands" Love it. I personally think that 'save the iceman from the cold scene cannot be used enough!

Ee! I'm glad you liked it! LJ's been doing something funky to my comments so yours just showed up in my inbox today!

I really think this is my favorite drabble out of all of them so far. Something really clicked when I started writing. <3

Cain/Glitch - Glitch shows some rookie Tin Men/soldiers that he can hold his own in battle

Please! And thank you! ^_^

I think I find anything that has Glitch kicking ass in it hilarious. I keep thinking of breakdancers.In retrospect he should have been paying attention. Well, he had been paying attention, he'd just been paying more attention to what he was going to do later than what had been going on in the present. Now he was sitting on a log with two other tin men with their hands manacled behind their backs. He didn't know what had happened to the third man they had been traveling with. Cain was going to grumble at him, but at least now he knew where the insurgents camp was. Oh! Insurgents. That was nice word. Sounded important ( ... )

It was adorable! Thank You!!!!

Cain's last line was brilliant. ^_^

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! That last line was gnawing on me the whole time I was writing. :D

Pairing: Ambrose/Glitch/Cain
Prompt: Ambrose and Cain have met before, not that Cain really remembers (*ahem*drunksex*ahem*). But Ambrose never forgot anything, and once Glitch gets his brain returned to him it's an awkward situation.

Ambrose was hiding. Really consciously hiding. He'd shut his workshop door under the pretense that he was cleaning but instead had just sat down at his desk and was leaning back in his chair staring at the ceiling ( ... )

I can't believe I missed all these, I'm checking your list daily from now on! This one makes me speechless....well that's a lie, I'm never speechless (think of Glitch on a tangent)...nevertheless, I was going to say there is larger story in that drabble, I hope you write it! Please don't make me beg....please....

Cheers hon, so good!!!

Hee, I'm glad you like them. I always have a sweet spot for drabbles because they always turn out to be a lot in a little package.

This one is definitely getting worked out into something a bit longer, the Ambrose here is a bit more confident than the one I'm used to working with. (You've seen Binary! ;D)

I gleed a lot at this one. I'm thinking I might have to write more on it. Thanks!The suns had risen and Glitch frowned at the book he was looking at. He was a bit of an early rise compared to Cain, who still slept with his arms tight around Glitch's waist. But, well, Cain did work at night and usually Glitch was in bed by the time that his lover came home, not that he didn't get absolutely elated when he was woken up. If he got kisses at three in the morning then sleep could wait ( ... )

That's fabulous! I love the multi-tasking Glitch--reading and cuddling at the same time.

And the end made me go "awww". ('Tis awwwwesome!)

Yay! I like fabulous, it's one of my favorite words. Thanks! I majored in fluff at the Fanfiction Academy. :)
