one plot, many pairings - CLAIMING POST

[marguerite_26]

Continuing my idea here regarding one plot, many pairings… I'm going ahead with it… like right now. :D

The feedback I received was that people wanted the option of not writing porn (IDEK?!? But people wanted that option. *g*) So I've tried to come up with a prompt that is 'easy' to write as either porn or not with enough structure that the writing experiment keeps this basic premise of 'write story ABC' in a pairing of your choice.

So the prompt is:

Character A and character B are trapped in a small space and unable to get out. They are tired and uncomfortable and a little too close for comfort. All they have each other and that makes things both better and worse.

It's a wee bit lame and yes, a trope, but the point of this is to do something interesting with a very simple prompt, so you'll have to forgive me. *g*

This prompt can be claimed for ANY PAIRING (or Gen), ANY FANDOM, ANY RATING.

For FIC: Comment in this post with which pairing/fandom you would like to write. Post your fic as a reply to that comment with pairing, title, rating in the subject line. Note: comments run about 750 words or so. If your fic is longer than that, just nest the fic OR comment with a link to a post on your lj.

For ART: ART IS WELCOME!!! Not sure if the prompt is tempting, but I hope it is. Comment in this post with which pairing/fandom you would like to draw and please clearly note that you are claiming for ART. Post your art as a reply to that comment with pairing, title, rating in the subject line. OR comment with a link to a post on your lj.

Please note: I am not policing the claimings and making sure that no two people write the same pairing. If you want to claim a pairing, please check that no one has commented before you claiming the one you want. If I see any doubles, I'll try to let you know asap.

All pairings/moresomes can be claimed once for fic and once for art.

Please do comment with: claiming Snape/Ron

Please DO NOT comment with: can I have Snape/Ron? Or if it's taken maybe Scorp/Arthur Weasley?? I'm happy with either. It will cause confusion and headaches. :)

As fics come in over the next few days/weeks, I'll update a masterlist. I think that's it folks. (if you have questions, please direct them here rather than in the comments below.

HAVE FUN!!!

[marguerite-26.livejournal.com]

YAY! (did you get my subtle hint to you there???)

[alafaye]

Claiming John/Ianto

Wow I met the character limit...weird that...

[alafaye]

Ianto tipped back on his heels as he took stock of the cleaning supplies, taking note of what was running low and what he hadn't been using lately. He was glad to note, however, that a trip to Tesco's wasn't in order after the week they'd had. He nodded and turned around, intending to finish up in the kitchen and then go home for a nice meal.

He blinked and wondered why the intruder alarm hadn't gone off. And then wondered how John Hart had gotten into the Hub in the first place.

"Eye-candy!" John said as he stepped into the cramped closet.

"Captain," Ianto grudgingly greeted.

John smiled. "Fancy seeing you here."

Ianto just resisted rolling his eyes. Just. "Jack is in his office. If you would like, I'll show you the way."

John stepped into Ianto's path. "Oh, no, Eye-candy. I'm not here to see Jack." He kicked the door shut and spoke over Ianto's protests. "I'm here for you."

Ianto narrowed his eyes and pushed his way to the door. He sighed when stubbornly the door lock held. "You best hope that Jack finds us--this door only unlocks from the other side."

John chucked and grabbed Ianto's hips. "And then he can join us."

Ianto turned around and pushed John away. "Personal space, Captain."

John looked around the closet. "What personal space? It's just you and me and about two feet of space."

Ianto bit back his reaction to say "Less, actually," and settled back against the wall. "Then there is one foot for you and one for me."

John sighed and pushed closer. "I think not, Eye-candy. I think I'm going to get what I came for. This time."

Ianto raised an eyebrow. "And what is that?"

"Oh, don't tell me that Jack has never cornered you?" John asked.

Ianto shuddered, remembering exactly that. "Is that your game, then?"

John smirked. "And you think you can resist me?" He bent his head to whisper. "I taught Jack that trick. I know how to seduce anyone who is backed into a corner. And they don't give in because they are trying to get free."

Ianto gulped, sensing that this might be one fight he might loose.

~~~

"Ianto?" Jack called. Last he knew, the younger man had been taking stock of the cleaning supplies and that was about an hour ago. He called up the CCTV and tracked Ianto to the closet.

The closet that was never closed because of a locking problem.

As Jack went over to open the door, he wondered how Ianto--one of the most brilliant men he'd ever met--had forgotten about the lock.

~~~

John looked like the cat who'd gotten the cream. He was relaxed, body lax against the door. "I knew you'd get into it, Eye-candy."

Ianto closed his eyes and leaned his head back against the wall. It had been good and Ianto knew he'd want more.

A sudden turning of the knob had them both moving away from the door, guilty. When it swung open to reveal Jack looking bemused on the other side, Ianto knew this wasn't going to end well.

Jack's eyes widened when he saw John. "What the hell?"

John sauntered forward. "Just sampling the goods." He looked back at Ianto. "Very tasty. Maybe you'll join me next time?"

Jack looked at Ianto who refused to meet his eyes. He wondered at the blush staining Ianto's cheeks. "Maybe."

[alafaye]

...Teddy/Scorpius

This so didn't write out the way I'd planned...

[alafaye]

"Shit!" Scorpius yelled as he fell backward, the box he'd been lifting luckily missing him as it flew out into the hallway.

"Scorpius?" Teddy peered around the corner, concern etching his face.

Scorpius blushed and stood, dusting himself off. "I'm fine, I'm fine. Just...it's heavy."

Teddy chuckled and picked up the box. "Some of this stuff up here...I always wonder why they don't get rid of some of it."

Scorpius shrugged, his mind not quite focusing on anything other than Teddy's muscles. As a Quidditch player, Teddy kept in shape and it showed. "Dunno. Al sent me up here to get something."

"Something, huh?" Teddy asked, eyes crinkling with laughter.

Scorpius huffed and crossed his arms. He hated it when Teddy picked on him--it made him feel like he was a kid and that Teddy only saw him as a kid. "Yeah, something."

Teddy shook his head. "Why don't we go downstairs and ask him to get it then? Make him do the heavy lifting?"

All of a sudden, the door slammed shut and Teddy cursed. He had his wand out, casting several charms, none of which got the door open. Scorpius gulped, wondering how long it would be before someone got the door open. And that in the meantime, he was stuck...in a closet no bigger than the downstairs toilet...with his crush.

He sat down with a huff.

Teddy turned around and shrugged his shoulders. "Guess you know why I went for Quidditch instead of being an Auror."

Scorpius rolled his eyes. "Yeah."

"Look, I know I'm not your favorite person, but we are going to be stuck in here for a few so how about we call a truce for now?"

Scorpius bit his lip to keep himself from gaping. Teddy thought he hated him? He nodded his head. "Truce. Sure."

~~~

They were quiet, Teddy trying to keep the peace by not saying anything to make Scorpius angry and Scorpius trying to not embarass himself. After a few hours, though, Teddy was fidgting, standing up and then sitting down again.

"You'd think that I'd prefer the silence after all the noise at the games, but I can't stand it if it's too quiet," Teddy said with a small laugh. "Um, can I ask...why don't you like me?"

Scorpius closed his eyes. "I...I don't hate you."

"What?" Teddy exclaimed. "Then why won't you sit next to me at the table? Why do you always leave the room when I get in there? You..." He trailed off and was silent for a few seconds. Seconds Scorpius used to pray to every deity he'd ever heard of that Teddy wouldn't figure it out.

"You're acting just like Victoria was when she had a crush on me," Teddy said finally. He sat next to Scorpius. "Is that it? Do you have a crush on me?"

Scorpius felt his face and neck burning up. "I...well, I...maybe? Yes?"

Teddy didn't laugh, but did lift Scorpius' chin. "It's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Yes, it is!" Scorpius yelled as he stood up. "You're practically Al's brother--my best friend's brother!"

Teddy smirked and stood. "Is that what's bothering you, then?"

Scorpius shrugged. "Sort of. You're also this big star and everyone loves you and I'm just..."

"You're not just nothing or anything, Scorpius," Teddy said. He stepped closer. "You're really cute and funny and you're brilliant with hexes. I've heard that the Auror program can't wait for you to graduate."

Scorpius was blushing. Again. He hated that Teddy could make him blush so much. "You're just trying to make me feel better."

Teddy chuckled softly and rubbed the back of his head. "I'm not. I mean it--you're really great, Scorpius." He bit his lip and then he was kissing Scorpius and it was brilliant.

"Oh," Scorpius said when it was over. "Oh."

Teddy smiled. "I was really upset when you started avoiding me. I thought I had done something wrong or that you'd figured out that I liked you and didn't like me like that."

Scorpius laughed. "Sorry. I just...sorry."

Teddy shook his head and wrapped his arms around Scorpius. "Now we know better, right?" Scorpius nodded and Teddy hugged him closer. "Good. Now, how about some more kissing?"

Scorpius grinned. "Brilliant."
