Title: Dialogue As A Diagram Of A Play For Blood
Fandom: Chuck
Characters/Pairings: Casey/Sarah
Rating: R
Word Count: 1,784
Warnings: Violence.
Author's Note: Some of this can be blamed on my television/film viewing habits of the past few days. The rest of it I choose to blame on Tumblr. I might have snagged a line of dialogue from someone's ask that wasn't even directed at me. Whoopsies. Forgive me for my sins.
Summary: Partially AU from S1. They break things, they don’t fix them. Walls and bones and rules and resolve; it all crumbles the same.

i can't stop falling out )
slybrunette: (CHUCK. Chuck; soldier who lost composure)
title: chuck vs. la dolce vita
fandom: chuck
character/pairings: ensemble. bryce/carina, bryce/chuck, for this part; various others implied.
rating: r
word count: 16,629
author's note: fair warning: i had a very hard time with this. i also wrote the last several sections with people on top of my roof, so i will own any and all spelling errors that occured, though i think i've gotten rid of the bulk of them. i'm sorry this took so long.
summary: part three of an au series. sarah tries to juggle an accidental date and a tempermental partner, as they fight to keep their jobs in light of the incident in vail. carina's presence puts an added strain on chuck and bryce's relationship, both professional and personal.

don't give in, like the very last bowling pin )
slybrunette: (tww. j/a. i've fallen out of favor)
title: our book won't close
fandom: the west wing
character/pairings: josh/amy, slight josh/donna
rating: pg-13
word count: 2,833
author's note: i started writing this in a hotel in d.c., during a heatwave. i finished during a flood. if that doesn't help explain the constant presence of weather during this, i don't know what will. it's also worth mentioning that i haven't seen season 6/7 in quite some time, so if my facts are slightly off we can just say it's au and call it a day. lastly, this is angsty. whoops. unbeta'd.
summary: post-series. scenes from a three day vacation in your past.


you're cussing a storm in a cocktail dress )
slybrunette: (weeds. a/n. we've all been warned)
title: with band-aids and safety pins
fandom: weeds
character/pairings: andy(+/)nancy. really up to reader interpretation.
rating: r
word count: 2,526
author's note: last monday i was expecting a fight that i didn't get, so i wrote one. this is more cathartic than anything else, and it's one of those single scene post-eps that i used to write years ago, so this is an odd change of pace for me, personally. unbeta'd.
summary: post 'vehement vs. vigorous'. he's taken to locking things up.

all the building fronts are just fronts )
slybrunette: (chuck. c/s. like fire around the brim)
title: you're failing all your cues
fandom: chuck
character/pairings: casey/sarah; allusions to chuck/sarah.
rating: r
word count: 896
author's note: written for [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster for the non-canon ficathon. unbeta'd.
summary: post s4. you can breathe now, you can breathe now, but the air is running out; they don't write fairytale endings for girls like her.

cinderella won't give up the glass slipper )
slybrunette: (ga. cristina. unzip my body)
Title: Cloud Up Your Mind With Old Valentines
Fandom: Grey's Anatomy
Characters/Pairings: Burke/Cristina
Rating: R
Word Count: 300
Author's Note: I actually have no memory of writing this last night. For that [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] challenge I completely forgot about. Post S7 finale.
Summary: Alabama was never going to solve any of her problems.

isn't it a little too late for this )
slybrunette: (weeds. andy. it's a wonderful wonderful)
Title: Freetown
Fandom: Weeds
Characters/Pairings: Andy. Slight Andy/Nancy.
Rating: R
Word Count: 2,083
Author's Note: I DON'T EVEN KNOW. Crack!fic turned character study. Goes AU from about halfway into the premiere. Oops.
Summary: He'd like to rule a country; sometimes dreams are better when they stay locked inside of your head.

this is nothing like it was in my room )
slybrunette: (tgw. kalinda. metal heart)
Title: An Honest Living
Fandom: The Good Wife
Characters/Pairings: Cary/Kalinda
Rating: R
Word Count: 1,130
Author's Note: For [livejournal.com profile] waltzmatildah who wanted 5 defeats. I may have taken that metaphorically as well as literally. And yes, I'm just as stunned that I wrote this as you probably are. It's worth noting here that I'm a casual viewer and as such my canon might be a little screwy. Don't hit me. I tried. Finally, thank you [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] for the encouragement.
Summary: They are the kind of people who revel in each other's losses. Professionally speaking.

my those quiet eyes become you )
slybrunette: (GA. A/L; show me your teeth)
Title: We've Got No Chance Of Recovery
Fandom: Grey's Anatomy
Characters/Pairings: Alex/Lexie, Jackson/Lexie, slight Alex/Meredith.
Rating: R
Word Count: 1,044
Author's Note: For [livejournal.com profile] rorylie who wanted 'Five Times Alex and Lexie kissed'. This is a very rough interpretation of that prompt and got too long to fit in a comment. My apologies if this sucks; my frame of mind is really interesting these days. Angst warning goes here.
Summary: Lexie has come to let these men define her.


tell me the story of how you ended up here )
slybrunette: (ga. lexie. i speak because i can)
Title: Close Your Eyes To Exit
Fandom: Grey's Anatomy
Characters/Pairings: Alex/Lexie, Jackson/Lexie, halfway implied Alex/Jackson/Lexie.
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 3,084
Author's Note: I wrote this in early April, rediscovered it Wednesday, and then tacked on a few extra scenes. Originally based off of [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]'s request for 'five years after the shooting' fic, except she wanted Alex/Lexie and this spiraled. Ignores canon from the last handful of episodes, which is probably for the best. Also, references to television shows I'm not even a fan of is what you get at 3am.
Summary: Future-fic. What's mine is yours and what's yours is mine and this nightmare is certainly ours.

the colors that the rain throws )
slybrunette: (weeds. a/n. baby i'll call up a storm)
Title: The Unbearable Lightness
Fandom: Weeds
Characters/Pairings: Ensemble. Andy/Nancy.
Rating: R
Word Count: 3,158
Warnings: Character death.
Author's Note: I've been more or less on the fence about posting this for a day or two but I finally said what the hell and went through with it. All I can say is this is an experiment.
Summary: Future-fic. The thing about the noose around your neck: after a while, you forget how to breathe anyway.

i will rearrange my plans and change for you )
slybrunette: (weeds. a/n. we've all been warned)
Title: Confessions of a Man Insane Enough to Live with Beasts
Fandom: Weeds
Characters/Pairings: Andy/Nancy.
Rating: PG-13 (language)
Word Count: 3,144
Author's Note: Takes place between 6x08 "Gentle Puppies" and 6x09 "To Moscow and Quickly". If you're looking for sexytimes, you're about to be disappointed since this falls in with canon more than it doesn't. Also, this is a sort of half-assed attempt at answering [livejournal.com profile] falseeeyelashes prompt from months ago; the only part that remains of that prompt is the Fourth of July setting. And on that note, if this show has a timeline I can't figure it out, so pretend it's July. Finally, title stolen from Bukowski.
Summary: They can't hold this together much longer.


the high won't fade here )
slybrunette: (chuck. sarah; your grace is wasted)
Title: We Made Out Like Bandits
Fandom: Chuck
Characters/Pairings: Sarah; Devon/Sarah, Casey/Sarah
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 6,570
Warnings: Character Death.
Author's Note: Accidentally inspired by my brain on drugs and this. I have never actually been to these places. Though The Plaza Hotel really is probably haunted.
Summary: AU. It's a Tuesday morning and her eggs are runny; the red smear on the table isn't ketchup. No one screams.

it breaks when you don't force it )
slybrunette: (chuck. c/s. like fire around the brim)
Title: You Make Me Lose My Buttons
Fandom: Chuck
Characters/Pairings: Casey/Sarah
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 2,460
Author's Note: For [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster who made the wonderful GIF, which inspired this fic.
Summary: She knows he’s looking. This is a very well fitting dress and he can play the all-business spoilsport who craves nothing more than a gun in his hand but it's a front that she can see right through.

i don't like my clothes anymore )
slybrunette: (ncis. t/z. today you were far away)
Okay, so one more thing before I go:

Title: At Terror Street and Agony Way
Fandom: NCIS
Characters/Pairings: Tony/Ziva
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 7,843
Author's Note: For [livejournal.com profile] rinslet. Hopefully the length makes up for how long I took. Also, I guess this is me dealing with my issues re: the Somalia storyline and how it was handled by the show. Title stolen from Bukowski.
Summary: There are inquires. Six rounds with a shrink, a proper one this time, a pinched faced woman who doesn’t know him from Jack, except for what his file says. His file says a lot. Not as much as hers, though.

we're losing our exits one by one )
slybrunette: (CHUCK. Chuck; soldier who lost composure)
Title: Chuck Vs. The 'F' Word
Fandom: Chuck
Characters/Pairings: Ensemble. Eventually Bryce/Chuck(/Carina) and Casey/Sarah.
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 10,014
Author's Note: Part two of my AU Series, beginning with Chuck vs. Uncle Sam. If you haven't read that, this probably won't make a whole lot of sense. I owe everything to my wonderful followers on Tumblr who don't mock me when I liveblog my writing woes but mostly, as always, to [livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster.
Summary: Black and white. Good and bad. Don't kid yourself; society's moral code is more complex than that (or the girl with the gun is telling lies again. maybe there's two girls. maybe they're mixing their lies with truth. maybe that's the dangerous part. here's some truth for you: this whole mess is the dangerous part and safety is a tale best saved for schoolchildren).

Title: Bitters & Absolut

Characters/Pairings: Burke/Cristina
Rating: PG-13

it's only the tenses that keep changing )
