Prompt Post #19, Newsletter #111 (17 February - 2 March)
Monday, 17 February
Prompt: Okay, so I've started seeing these adverts:
http://i60.tinypic.com/dykfax.jpg
on the tube lately and they immediately made me think Nick Clegg as a tube employee AU?
Therefore: Nick Clegg as a tube employee AU!
Fill: Long Journey Home (David Cameron/Nick Clegg) (Work in progress - as of 2-Mar-14 through part 9b)
Tuesday, 18 February
Prompt: Something with homelessness, please.
Fill: Power (Cameron, Brown, Blair, Major, and Thatcher; Pairings include TBGB, implied Blairbell, implied past Clameron, possibly past Mandelbrown) (Work in progress - as of 2-Mar-14 through part 4) [[Warning(s)] prostitution, disordered eating, murder/suicide, character death]
Wednesday, 19 February
Self-prompt: I was reading through older fics and got a tiny plot bunny from this fic: http://lolitics-meme.livejournal.com/10702.html?thread=29180622#t29180622
A short fic about Andrew and Boris
Fill: Andrew and Boris (Andrew Feldman/Boris Johnson) [[Warning(s)] mentions of alcohol and drugs]
Thursday, 20 February
Self-prompt:Miriam Gonzalez-Durantez/George Osborne
A different take on this part
"Why not?" George frowned, not comprehending.
David shrugged and answered for Nick, "She left mostly because of all the press around their house. I can't imagine it's not going to increase now. And Nick and Miriam had made so much progress... she was so close to agreeing to come back so he could see his boys."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Nick," George sighed. "You know what, why don't I talk to her? I could have my brother see about any flats he doesn't have rented out to tourists at the moment and have Miriam and the kids stay there so they can be nearer. Theo does the whole... luxury condo thing..."
Nick's eyebrows furrowed in his surprise, "You'd do that for me?"
"Of course," George smiled genuinely, "you're Dave's boyfriend."

Fill: Miriam/George (Miriam Gonzalez-Durantez/George Osborne)

No new fills
Saturday, 22 February
Self-prompt: A day may come when someone writes a profound, meaningful Walter Harrison/Jack Weatherill fic that explores the complex political realities of their era and the nuances of their decades-long friendship.
But it is not this day. This day you are getting a dæmon AU with whiply skullduggery and blowjobs.
(On the off chance that 70s-fic-prompting-anon was looking for something a trifle less obscure, I'm going to self-prompt this so it doesn't get in the way of a proper fill. But it is set in the 1974-1979 Parliament. Well, a 1974-1979 Parliament with dæmons.)
Fill: Our Better Part Remains (Jack Weatherill/Walter Harrison)
