House House/Wilson, '100 bottles of Vicodin on the wall'

"You know that taking that's not going to accomplish anything."

"Except to keep you from combining dangerous amounts of drugs with dangerous amounts of narcotics..."

"Yes... but only for the thirty seconds it'll take me to locate another bottle."

"How many bottles do you have stashed around here?"

"You just took the one you know about. What makes you think I'd tell you about the others? I need them."

"You need to stumble your way to your bed and sleep it off ( ... )

NCIS, Gibbs/author's choice (het or slash), boats

Kelly had loved boats, from the very first time she had seen one, throwing open pudgy baby hands to the ocean, trying to pull the colourful floating things towards her.

They had collected them for her, in a mobile, in miniature scale hunched inside glass bottles high on a shelf, toys and beauty and she had grown up loving them.

She was wearing them in her hair when she died, he found them missing from her jewellery box (Full of plastic and bright colours and broken clasps) when he returned to a house full of ghosts.

He built a boat to please her, as perfect as she was and collecting the sweat and blood he would have put into her.

He named her Kelly, in black letters on pale wood, and brought lovers to be judged against her, some passed, most failed.

He would take her to the water one day so she could see her beloved boats again, but in time, when she was old enough, a father had a right to hold onto his little girl for a little longer.

X-Files, Mulder/Krycek, file folders

There's a drawer on Mulder's filing cabinet that has a separate lock than the other drawers. The key is on its own ring, locked inside a lock-box in a safe. The key for the lock-box is inside a different lock-box, one that is kept under Scully's name at the bank. The key for the safe is locked in a third box in Skinner's safe, and the key for the third box stays secure the Gunmen's lair, though he has never asked Byers where it's kept ( ... )
