Drabble prompts!

This week's drabble prompts are brought to you by Anne Taintor, maker of snarky magnets featuring vintage images of vindictive housewives and women behaving badly. Each prompt comes with both a picture and a caption, and while most are related to domestic or sexual situations, please feel free to explore and interpret them however you like.

McCoy/Chapel

“It is against regulations. Only if it can be seen when in uniform.” Doctor McCoy’s tone spoke directly to the whispering convergence of nurses. “And this little gossip session is against my own sickbay regulations. Get back to work or log out

Woohoo! I can just picture her getting that done in her youth and the pictures her friends took when she got it done. Haha!

It reminds me how the guys always ask to see my birthmark when I'm in a bikini...I have a heart shaped birthmark directly underneath my left breast as well. XD

Yesterday Jim turned three and a half years old, which became the first big bash hosted in this house since the move to Riverside. (Ever since his real birthday he had his mind set on something involving water balloons and that's not an indoor game

This seems like real stuff. You can make a woman appear strong all you want-girl power, anything you can do I can do better-but every woman knows that you cannot be strong without the weak.

This seems real, and I really enjoyed it. Bravo to you.

Thanks! I really think that recognizing her weakness makes her stronger.

I was really curious to see where people would go with this prompt, and I really like what you've done with it. I'd never thought of Winona being on anti-depressants after her husband's death, but it makes total sense. I really like the rationale you've given for her return to Starfleet as well.

McCoy/Chapel, "Why yes, I am that kind of girl."

[A/N: This started as "I am that kind of girl" but there are a lot of these themes in this story. Because Chapel is a BAMF. Enjoy!]

“Listen, if you’re going to accuse me of sleeping with every superior officer on this ship, at least say it to my face!”

McCoy almost fell out of his chair, her voice pounding into his ears but he regained his face, looking up from a patient file to assess her. Her tiny hands were balled into fists and he saw the angry set of her brow, the wrinkles that had already set in as a result of being a nurse for too long, and the flush of red creeping from her chest all the way to her hairline. She wasn’t trembling, but looked like she wanted slap the hell out of him. Or slit his throat.

He frowned at the last prospect - not because it would be painful, but the mere fact that she could and probably would do it

I love Chapel, especially in this. ♥

Re: McCoy/Chapel, "Why yes, I am that kind of girl."

[kendallshoots]

Chapel is...gah. I love writing her, pretty much because she is just an open book.

Umm... yes, this is awesome. I ♥ this Christine.

Number One, TOS, Guess where I'm tattooed

[igrockspock]

Two years and eleven days into her command, a band of seventeen tiny stars encircles her left thigh. Three are blue, five are gold, and nine are red. They joke about it down in operations - the red shirt's always the first to die, maybe you should pick up a blue tunic from ship store's before the away mission. But it's true. Security's always the first on the ground. Security's always taking the hits meant for her. Each of the stars has a name: McAdams, Chang, Seekins, Kal-bevek... She remembers the date too, and the story, what she said to their husbands and wives and parents and children on recorded subspace transmissions. She hates that the ship is always too far out for a live feed.

Seekins would've had a crass joke or two about finally being on her thigh -- not that he ever would have said such a thing to her face. He has a point though, or he would if he could still speak. The location is more sensuous than she would have liked. But she'd wanted some place she could see. Some place she would have to see, really.
