drabble requests

To stave off the growing madness and give me something creative to do that distracts me from the other creative thing I'm supposed to be doing...

Give me prompts and I will attempt to write you drabbles. Themes, quotes, items, ideas, timeframes ( Read more... )

fic, drabble prompts, fandomination

“Well, I'm not, because you're Canadian.”

“That's no reason to malign my doctorates,” McKay says, the sound muffled because his face is pressed between his knees and he's doing either some heavy breathing or some quite delicate gagging.

“You're not going to get mysteriously and improbably ill are you?” House smacks him on the back a couple fo times and McKay rewards him with a searing glare.

“No. Why would I?”

House tilts his head. “Well, that sort of thing tends to happen to me with greater frequency than is strictly probable. And I really don't like getting to know my patients.”

“You're a Doctor too.” Baltar looks reasonably impressed.

“Too? Too? There is no 'too'. You,” McKay straightens up enough to point a finger at each of the other men in turn. “I am a doctor. You are a faux-doctor, a practitioner of the voodoo arts of medicine. And you...are an actual practitioner of the voodoo arts. If your alma mater had any integrity they would have revoked your degree ( ... )

Which is of course when the door opens, letting in a breeze and a pair of military-issue boots topped with jeans, a white shirt and a not even remotely regulation haircut.

“I leave you alone for one evening, McKay,” Military Boots remonstrates ( ... )

oh my god. I have no words for how happy this combination has just made me. "that sort of thing tends to happen to me with greater frequency than is strictly probable" Gaius' soothing tone and crazy eyes. House FALLING ON THE FLOOR and indirectly making fun of McKay's allergies. MILITARY BOOTS, THE MILITARY BRAT. "an actual practitioner of voodoo arts". ahhhhhh.

I spittaked way too many times for one drabble. considering I have only half a season knowledge of BSG and I'm a little behind on the other two, this was hilarious, accessible, and really well-written. these three work really well together (now just add Doctor Cox and stir...)

can't this be a real tv show?

Aw man, you have no idea how incredibly pleased I am that you enjoyed this. They are all such awesome, awesome characters, I'm afraid McKay and House sort of elbowed Baltar out of the way. It's so cracky and ridiculous, but I had a great time, had to stop myself from just adding and adding bits, gah. Plus, the image of poor Baltar as this harassed televangelist with Britney Spears-listening followers...

Plus, I went and refreshed myself on House's background, and OMG, military brat, stationed everywhere, asshole, loudmouth, genius, he's like, all the worst and most brilliant bits of McKay and Sheppard rolled into one, and eventually I think he'd hate them both because they're too much like him. Sheppard isn't really Rodney's Wilson, Sheppard's another semi-House. :D

I think if this were a real TV show I would never leave the house.

And do not even imagine House, McKay and Cox together in one room. My head will explode from hot and snark and argh. Argh. They'd kill each other, but we could flog the tickets on ebay for MILLIONS.

But Baltar is necessary as a presence to come in with the perfect one-liners and off-set the growing size-competition sarcasm between the other two. Also to complete the three men and a bar schtick. (originaly wrote "and a baby". hm.)

Doctor Cox actually rants about how much he haayhaayhaayhayhaaaaaaaates House in some episode or another, so I imagine there would indeed be carnage. delicious, delicious carnage. gosh, there are sort of a lot of amazing sarcastic fictional Doctors out there. almost as many as there are cocky fictional Captains.

I was just goofing off, surfing around LJ and I found this.

Delightful. Funny. I'd watch this show every night, if I could.
