3 x Drabbles from the 1MW Drabble/Icon challenge 2023
I am very behind on updating this fic journal, and I know I need to relook at my sticky posts too, which is my goal for 2024, even if I don't get them exactly how I want them straight away!
Now to the newer fic...
I wrote these for the 1_million_words Drabble/icon challenge last year, though I have used prompts from my post asking for prompts rather than any from the comm. It had been a while since I wrote much at all, so I was very pleased with myself for having managed these three! I have managed a bit more in 2024 too, so aim to get them posted here as well soon, as well as continue writing Part Three of my H50 Steve/Adam 'The Distance' fic, which I actually added some words to last year, and another bit just today!
1. Lost: Everything I Hate (Sawyer/Sayid)
From the prompt supplied by zelda_zee: He is everything I hate
100 words exactly
"He is everything I hate," Sayid announces.
"Who's that, chief?" Sawyer says.
"You know exactly who I mean."
Sawyer looks up, eyes narrowed. He hasn't been paying attention but doesn't want Sayid to know that.
"Why?" he asks instead, sure he can get it from context.
"He thinks he is superior to most of us; his skills are required here but he judges before he provides; he is far too interested in you. Is that enough?"
At his last comment, Sayid turns stormy, possessive eyes to drink Sawyer in.
Sawyer allows a small smile to form. He should have known.

2. CSI: Crime Scene Investigation: Halfway (Nick/Greg)
From the prompt supplied by badly_knitted: Lazy afternoon
98 words
"You done?"
Greg looks up from the report he's been scouring, taking in the hopeful look on Nick's face as he leans into the room, one hand on the doorknob like he's ready to back out again.
Offering Nick an encouraging smile first, Greg glances at the clock before nodding. "There's nothing that can't wait until tomorrow. What did you have in mind?"
Nick moves further into the room, checking behind himself before shutting the door. "You; me; a lazy afternoon."
Greg can't leave his seat fast enough. He meets Nick halfway across the room. “You got it.”

3. Hawaii 5-0: A Million Times (Steve/Danny)
From the prompt supplied by badly_knitted: "If you do that again, I'll..."
99 words
Danny grips the steering wheel tightly and lets out his breath. "I swear you get worse."
Steve's all innocent eyes and questioning gestures, like he hasn't done something like this a million times before. "I still don't think-"
"No, exactly," Danny cuts him off. "You don't!" He gives Steve the angry side-eye and continues, "If you do that again, I'll... I'll..."
Steve huffs into a smile. "You won't."
"I will."
"Nah, you won't."
Danny shakes his head lightly, trying to maintain his anger as he drives.
“You know you love me,” Steve cajoles.
The problem is, he’s right.
