Author's Note: I was bored one afternoon and told my flist to prompt me. I got several prompts. And thus, posting them all here so it's nice, neat and edited. :D
Tegopi. Letters.
Prompt: Letters for thawrecka
It was a habit Tegoshi'd started as a kid - writing letters to let out the emotions that he couldn't say out loud. He told them about the frustration of being undermined when NewS had started. He told them about the awkward group dynamics. He told them about the loneliness. He'd told them instead of having tears slide down his face.
He also told them about his awe for Yamashita Tomohisa. He told them when he'd found out he was going to work in a group with Yamapi. He'd told them how disappointed he'd been when Yamapi'd snubbed him. But the next day, he told them that he did understand.
Tegoshi told them about the frustration of losing Uchi and then Kusano. He told them how much it had hurt to go on hiatus. He told them every time he hurt. Every time he was happy. Every time he was mad.
Everything and anything.
Tegoshi handed the box to Yamapi who looked at him apprehensively. "Are you sure?" Yamapi asked as Tegoshi looked at the box of letters with a smile.
"Un!" Tegoshi said cheerfully, watching as Yamapi threw the box into a garbage bin and promptly lit it on fire.
All the worries and fears and pains he'd gone through went up in flames and Tegoshi watched as the sparks shone in the dark night. He looked over at Yamapi beside him and the older male took his hand firmly into his own, smiling gently down at Tegoshi in a way that filled him with warmth.
Tegoshi wouldn't need the letters anymore - he had someone else to tell these things to.
NewS-centric. Draw Me A Picture.
Prompt: Paperdolls. Yamapi and whoever for mujun
They were really bad pictures drawn onto paper. All the members looked at them apprehensively as Tegoshi beamed at them brightly. "Guess which one's you!"
Ryo muttered under his breath darkly, "It'd definitely end up being a guess."
Koyama elbowed him sharply before Tegoshi could hear him properly, which he didn't judging from the questioning look he was throwing Ryo and Koyama. "Um," Koyama pointed at the only one who didn't have their eyes open. "Me, I'm guessing."
Tegoshi beamed happily, "Un!"
Ryo snorted and whispered to Yamapi. "Unfair advantage. Those eyes help with everything."
Yamapi frowned down at the drawings. Even with Shige and Massu out (they'd guessed theirs immediately after Koyama - Massu having a meatbun in his hand and Shige having the very obvious mohawk). It was down to Ryo and Yamapi.
Tegoshi stared at the last two with a hopeful eyes, but Yamapi couldn't help but think that he really wasn't going to be able to do this one. Ryo gave Yamapi a cocky look. "I'm going to let leader go first," Ryo said, under the pretense of being kind.
Yamapi knew better. Ryo'd just take whichever picture was left, depending on whether or not Yamapi was right. He squinted - hoping that maybe it'd make things come into perspective a little more. Except it really didn't and the drawings just looked smaller.
Yamapi took a wild guess and pointed at the one that was just a little taller than the other. Tegoshi's eyes lit up seconds later. "Amazing!" Tegoshi cooed, "Just like the leader to know which one is his!"
Koyama mumbled behind him. "Or just very good luck."
Yamapi elbowed Koyama sharply, but smiled brightly at Tegoshi. "I knew which one had your feelings." Tegoshi's eyes shone brighter as Ryo snorted into his hand, trying to mask his laughter. As long as things were okay with the group, Yamapi thought, relieved.
Pin. Body Warmth.
Prompt: Being really fucking cold for jackoweskla
Yamapi wasn't sure why they were still in separate beds. It was one of the most freezing nights he'd ever experienced, and his thick blanket did nothing to help warm him up. But it was still awkward - they'd just moved in with each other. And even though Yamapi'd slept in the same bed as Jin many times before, it was still strange now that it was convenient. ...No, Yamapi really didn't understand it either.
So Yamapi stayed in bed, his feet freezing as he tried to scrunch into a ball underneath the sheets - hoping that being more round would get him warm. Except it really wasn't. He shifted from side to side, trying to tuck the blanket underneath his sides, insulating himself.
A moment later, one of the sides flapped out and Yamapi yelped when a sudden breeze hit his unprotected side.
"Shut up," an exhausted Jin snapped as he settled against Yamapi's side, closing off the unprotected side with his body and wrapping an arm around Yamapi's waist, pressing against Yamapi's back.
"What are you doing here?" Yamapi asked, his voice slightly thick.
"You fidget loudly," Jin moaned. "So annoying. Kept me up."
Yamapi snorted. "I was not," he argued, but the warmth of Jin against his back was already spreading heat through his body and he had to admit he was starting to feel less cold.
"Who cares," Jin yawned. "Just go to sleep. I'm here."
Yamapi's eyes fluttered close and he relaxed against Jin, Jin's warm breath tickling the back of his neck. Yamapi thought even his toes felt warm.
Pin. Comparing Cups.
Prompt: Boobs for 4_03_am
Jin angled the magazine sideways, scrutinizing it, as Yamapi fidgeted in his seat. "Are you going to ever stop staring at that?" Yamapi whined. "It was awkward enough having to shoot it, but having my best friend examine it as intensely as you are really makes me uncomfortable!"
Jin turned the magazine in another direction, tilting his head to go along with the new angle. Yamapi groaned again. "Jinnnnnn," he whined.
"You know," Jin said, finally looking away from the magazine to lock eyes with Yamapi. "I think you have a bigger chest than her."
Yamapi blinked before chucking the closest pillow at Jin. "That's all you have to say about it?!"
Jin cackled as he shielded his face from the pillows. "Did she have a complex over them?" Jin mocked a falsetto tone. "Ohmygod, he has bigger boobs than me. I can't possibly shoot with another girl."
Yamapi launched himself onto Jin, yelling out a war cry.
Hanadan - Rui/Makino, Tsukasa/Makino. Keep Watching.
Prompt: Picturesque and candlelight for silver_rose88
It wasn't as though it wasn't normal for them to have dinner together. After all, they were the best of friends, weren't they? But Rui was sure most best friends didn't harbor secret crushes (that weren't really secret but have since tried hard to supress) for their other best friend's fiancee.
Rui was sure if Tsukasa knew how much time him and Makino spent going out (and eating mainly) that he'd be beyond jealous, but at the same time, maybe Tsukasa would be okay with it because he trusted Rui.
But with Makino staring back at him, looking gorgeous in a stunning red gown, the candlesticks in the middle of the table pronounced the angles in her face just a little more. Her hair was tied up neatly, the small amount of make-up she wore made her glow. Rui wasn't sure he could really hide just how he felt.
He thought they probably looked picturesque together, the kind of image people'd paint just so they couldn't forget. Rui didn't want to forget himself. But when he lifted his glass to give a brief little toast, he felt himself calm his rapid heartbeat back down to normal and beam at Makino.
"Happy year anniversary with Tsukasa, Makino," he murmured. She smiled at him brightly.
"Thanks, Hanazawa Rui." She clinked her glass against his and set a small frown on her face. "Where is that idiot anyway?"
Tsukasa's voice boomed from behind Rui. "Right here." In an instance, Rui watched as Makino's eyes lit up - a look that Rui would never really see put in his direction. Suddenly, chairs all around them were being occupied as the rest of the F4 came filtering in.
It had been a good moment while it'd lasted, Rui thought.
Ryopi. Practice.
Prompt: Ryopi, uchiwas, bathtub for quinnsan
Yamapi looked dryly at the uchiwas that Ryo'd dragged into the bathtub to join them. "Why would you bring those in here?" Yamapi asked, relaxing in the tub, legs outstretched.
Ryo smirked a little, amused, before using one of the uchiwas - the one for himself - and spoke, making a small motion that indicated that he was talking for the uchiwa and not for himself. "Pi. Pi. Don't you know my secret needs?" "Ryo" asked.
Yamapi stared - there just wasn't anything he could say.
Using the Yamapi uchiwa, Ryo mocked Yamapi's voice. "No, Ryo-chan. They're secret! You should tell me though. Aren't I your bestest friend ever?" "Yamapi" said.
Yamapi snorted. "I do not talk like that."
Ryo pointedly ignored him. "Pi, I think I'm in lurve with you," "Ryo" said, almost whiny.
At that, Yamapi howled in laughter, flicking some water at Ryo's face.
"Oh Ryo-chan! Me too!" "Yamapi" said, and Ryo started to move the two uchiwas together, implying a kiss motion as he smushed the faces together.
Yamapi cracked up, knocking the uchiwas out of Ryo's hand and onto the floor which wasn't too much struggle as Ryo was trying hard to stop himself from laughing. "You know, Ryo-chan," Yamapi joked. "If you wanted to confess, you could've come up with something more creative."
Ryo threw him an amused look. "That wasn't for my purpose, that was so you could learn how to properly confess to someone."
Yamapi snorted. "If that's so, why was your Ryo one confessing?"
Ryo paused before throwing a wet towel at a laughing Yamapi. "Shut up. And just clean yourself. You still stink."
Yamapi laughed even harder.
Shuji to Akira to Nobuta (Really, Kame to Yamapi to Maki). Back Together.
Prompt: Tegomassuki, swim suits, Yamapi's moue of distaste, a six pack of Red Bull, Jin shrieking, Ryo cackling, and "Seishun Amigo" for kitsune714
(I only managed 4/7. XP And two of the four are reaches.)
It ends up that at Countdown 2008-2009, Maki performs with them all. Originally, the plan was that she was only going to perform Akenokoru with Tegomass and just join the other juniors in dancing along with everyone else. But management decided that in order for Maki to get more air time, she'd perform other songs with the idols.
She ends up performing the song Ai no Katamari with KAT-TUN. With Arashi for Sunrise Nippon along with the 3Tops. She got to perform Taiyou no Namida with News. Surprisingly, she performs Daite Senorita with Yamapi, following it up with Kuro to Shiro's Monochrome (which had been a last minute decision).
But her favorite of the night is when management decided to make a redo of the previous year's Seishun Amigo, only this time, Maki's able to join in. This year, they're able to sing the song just a little longer, another verse is added, and she can faintly hear Jin cracking up as he tries to sing the right lyrics (he's completely off) and Ryo's trying to fake the steps but Jin's kicking him again in the ass.
But Maki ignores it all, because she can see Shuji and Akira in her peripheral vision as she slightly steps back, and it's like Nobuta wo Produce all over again. Just the three of them.
When the ending strains of the song play, Kame and Yamapi wrap their arms around her while Ryo and Jin pose in front of them. Maki can remember just how wide her grin is, how happy she is and she's reminded just how glad she is to be there. Just for this one moment.
