Ficathon fills #1
May add a few more here, may not, (may also need restraining - you know who you are) but these are my first lot of fills from the ficathon:
For eternal_moonie, Supergirl, Mon-El/Kara, confession
Since Mon-El had known Kara, he felt like so often he had to apologise for something, be it the screwup he had made of his one-day internship at Catco, or that time she’d caught him acting as vigilante and found out exactly what his new job involved.
This confession, his confession of the feelings he’d been starting to develop for her ever since she’d found him and brought him into their circle, could end equally badly, he knew.
But he watched Kara’s face as he began to tell her how he felt, and realised that this time, here was a confession that was going to go well for him.
For daria234, Gotham, Jim Gordon/Mario Falcone, comfort
It hadn’t been the real Mario Falcone, Jim tried to tell him, even as he watched Mario weep as he came to himself, cured of the infection from Alice’s tainted blood, and realised exactly what he had done to the woman they had both loved.
In other circumstances, Mario would have thought it insane that the man comforting him now was the man who had spent their entire relationship wanting Lee for himself. But looking at Jim now, Mario knew that Jim was possibly the only person in Gotham to understand how he truly felt, and the only person he wanted near him now.
For eternal_moonie, The Flash, Barry/Julian, one night of drinking doesn't make us friends
One of the many things that had always infuriated Julian about Barry was his persistent absences from work that he could never satisfactorily explain, but now, faced with Barry constantly asking him to meet up for drinks with him and those friends of his, or even alone, and Julian found himself wishing that Barry would go back to being MIA.
“I know you said that one night of drinking doesn’t make us friends, which is why I’m offering more, maybe if we have a few more nights hanging out, you’ll get to see me differently, and besides I could use all the friends I can get right now?”
“Probably true,” Julian replied before shrugging and grabbing his coat, thinking that even as he said that, he’s not so sure Barry’s wrong.
For lizzie_marie_23, Harry Potter, Peter Pettigrew, flexing his silver hand
He flexes his silver hand, bestowed upon him by the Dark Lord as a reward for helping to return him to his body, and he reflects how lucky he is to have been granted this.
The Dark Lord has made it clear enough times, after all, that Pettigrew is useless, that he only tolerated him because he was the servant who had chosen to return to him when all had seemed lost, and Pettigrew would not have blamed him for leaving him with a miserable stump.
But as he remembered how Harry Potter had saved his life, and the hand turned on him, Pettigrew wondered if he could have been saved had Voldemort not bothered.
For adamas, The Vampire Diaries, Damon/Elena, it's been ten years since she fell asleep
Elena’s upset that it’s only ten years; she had hoped for Bonnie to lead a long and fulfilling life, and now she knows that that was not to be.
She reads the diary entries written for her by Stefan, Caroline, Alaric, and slowly takes in everything that has happened in the ten years she has been asleep.
Damon watches her reading, hopes that one day she may be able to forgive him.
For celeste9, The Originals, any Mikaelson, eternity
They speak of always and forever, and every one of the siblings has told Freya that the words apply to her too.
But they don’t, and never will, not really, for she remains mortal and will age with time, while her siblings continue with their existence without her.
Sometimes Freya wonders how her siblings truly feel that she will not be among them for eternity.
For , iZombie, Liv, half life
So she’s still here, you could say she made it.
But what kind of a life is this, forced to eat brains rather than the chicken she used to love, estranged from her family as she was unable to explain exactly why she couldn’t give her brother a transfusion, not living and yet not dead?
And as her personality changes with every brain she eats, she begins to wonder if she’s even still Liv any more.
For silvr_dagger, any, any, siren song (filled with TVD, Enzo)
Enzo wonders whether, if Elena were still here, Damon would have found it any easier to resist Sybil’s siren song.
He still has Bonnie, he still has something to hold on to, and that’s what keeps him holding on to his humanity, not letting Sybil fully in, not letting her control him as she does Damon.
If Enzo didn’t have Bonnie, he wonders, would he have fallen so completely under her spell too?
For lizzie_marie_23, Harry Potter, Sirius and Harry, "I know, honey, you don't agree, but this is our family tree."
“But you told me once that all pure bloods were related, Sirius, so why don’t you know how we are?”
“If there was any family bigger blood traitors than the Weasleys, it was the Potters, and I can only assume that your ancestors were blasted off the family tree so long ago that no one can remember how we’re related any more.”
Harry had to admit that was plausible, but still wished he knew exactly how he was related to Sirius.
For silvr_dagger, any, any, dangerous magic (The Secret Circle, Diana)
Diana looks at Cassie, and wonders how she can bear to embrace her dark magic.
Diana wants to rip hers out, to be able to pretend that it isn’t a part of her, that John Blackwell isn’t a part of her.
It’s affecting them all, Cassie, Faye, even Adam now, and Diana is determined to cling on to the person she has always been.
For silvr_dagger, Any, any, Beware, my girl, beware of these memories/And what is real
Sometimes Peeta feels like it’s just a game to them, every time he asks someone “Real or not real?”
But it’s not, not to him, can never be anything but a nightmare from which he can’t escape, seeing visions of people before his eyes, Foxface, his parents, saying they’re dead because of him.
One day he fears he’ll fly at Katniss, hurt her, kill her, unable to distinguish which memories are real.
For samueljames, The Flash, Eddie/Joe, in another universe they're partners outside of work too
Joe smiles as he watches Eddie Thawne walk through the lobby, coffee in hand, pausing to exchange a few words with some guy, and it pleases him to know that here, on this earth, at least he is alive, well and happy, and maybe even making a version of Iris happy too.
As Joe watches, Eddie crosses the hall, and pauses to kiss….that universe’s Joe West? What the hell?
For eternal_moonie, Supergirl, Mon-El/Kara, confession
Since Mon-El had known Kara, he felt like so often he had to apologise for something, be it the screwup he had made of his one-day internship at Catco, or that time she’d caught him acting as vigilante and found out exactly what his new job involved.
