COMMENT FIC POST

[slybrunette]

I can't write. Prompt me.

Guidelines:

Fandoms: Lost, Grey's Anatomy. BSG, Gossip Girl, Oz, anything else that you know I watch. Any pairings go.
Prompt me with a fandom, character/pairing, and either a prompt word, song lyric, or picture.

I'm trying to get back in the habit of doing more than one fandom, so, really, you're helping me here.

Alex/Meredith

FRIENDSHIP

maybe we didn't want to be found {kate, penny}

[slybrunette.livejournal.com]

*it wanted to be femslashy, it really did, and it's close. hopefully it's alright -- never really written Penny*

---

Penny always wanted to live on the edge, the dangerous side. Little girls were supposed to dream of growing up princesses, rich and married, everything and everyone at their beck and call.

But when that’s something you already have, what’s left to attain? Instead Penny grew up dreaming of open roads and dark motels. She dreamed of something different from this life, from perfection and connections and pretending her father was something other than a manipulative bastard, pretending everything she had wasn’t tainted by that fact.

The instant the pretty brunette with the baby in her arms walks on board the boat, something flutters in her stomach. She doesn’t understand until later, when she sees her watching the blue sea beneath them the next morning, a need for escape, the fear that she can’t, in her eyes. Because this woman, Kate, she’s exactly who Penny always wanted to grow up to be.

There is something to be said for living vicariously through others. She’s happy to see Desmond, happier than maybe she’s ever been, but in the past few years she’s learned to live without him. She can’t just jump back into the way it was before. So she keeps the other woman in her sight line for most of the first few days, feels this change in energy just from being around her. And one night she’ll find her way out of bed and out onto the boat in the dark and Kate’s there, just like Penny thought she would be.

“Do you miss it?” Penny asks, into the cool breeze when she settles along the railing next to Kate. The other woman looks at her with wild emerald eyes and a confused expression on her face. “The island.”

“No.” Her response is automatic, belies absolutely nothing. Penny just watches her, as if waiting for her to realize she isn’t buying what Kate is selling. Lying seems second nature for this woman. “I do. I miss it.”

“Freedom,” rolls of Penny’s tongue, one word of many that circulate in her mind. It’s Kate’s turn to look at her, to watch her, like she’s suddenly seeing something she’d missed before.

In the distance, somewhere so far that Penny can trick herself into believing she’s only seeing things, land looms. She closes her eyes to it, and she can feel Kate shift next to her. Closer.

There must be something wrong with them, the two of them. People who never wanted to return. People who never wanted to be found.

Oh my god, that's stunning. You're stunning. You totally shouldn't worry about the pair refusing to femmeslash it up for you - the vibe was there. The connection was tangible, it really was. I could picture the two of them so well. You did a fantastic job writing Penny!

Re: maybe we didn't want to be found {kate, penny}

[slybrunette.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad you liked it hun, I really was very nervous. As for femslash -- you know, I think connections count as well, but I never know how other people feel.

Thanks for the prompt hun!

"In the end everyone ends up alone"

*lol i wish i knew where this was coming from -- got no clue on this though. i tried*

---

Claire buys a Christmas tree for their shitty little apartment. One of those short ones that stand about two feet tall if you’re lucky, the kind that are meant as centerpieces or decorations to be placed in windows.

She goes nuts decorating it too, colored lights that leave shadows on the wall when she forgets to turn it off (which is almost every night; he’ll find her asleep on the couch because, you know, they still just drift off wherever they are, they haven’t relearned the idea of bed as the place where you’re supposed to go to sleep), and small glass ornaments she gets in tiny clear plastic boxes from the Target down the road. She looks so damned pleased the day she finishes her little tree that could that he bites back the ‘happy now Charlie Brown?’ that tries to pass through his lips (too early for that, for so many reasons). He sticks another cigarette between them instead and walks out onto the four foot long piece of deck that juts off of their apartment.

Sawyer never liked the holidays. Too many ghosts to rear their heads.

When he comes back in she’s curled up against the side of the couch, head resting on the armrest, eyes fixed somewhere between the door and the circular magenta, teal, and yellow shadows, as if in a trance that she has the power to turn on and off. “Thank you for not saying anything,” her voice is quiet and sober, muffled against her hands, but it’s the only sound in the room.

He’s not used to being thanked. All that comes out as a response is a mumbled, “You’re welcome.”

It’s the first night in a long while that she doesn’t fall asleep on the couch.

[gigglemonster.livejournal.com]

Well it clearly came from somewhere beautiful and awesome and perfect! Because that's what this is! I love it! :)
I love the idea of them still not being used to sleeping in a regular bed and Sawyer keeping his mouth shut! Aww!
Thank you so much m'dear
♥

[slybrunette.livejournal.com]

Aw thanks! It's been weeks since I've really written Lost so this was a nice change.

I've been hankering for some Alex/Lexie lately.
