I'm bored so it seems like a good time for a prompt meme! (stolen from measured_words on dreamwidth)

How about alphabet drabble/ficlet challenge, then? Give me a fandom/character/pairing and a prompt for the letter of your choice and I'll write you a drabble! eg: L is for Love, Arrow, Sara/Felicity.

Any fandom I've written before is fair game - you can look over to the left to see what fandoms I've written in previously. If you're not sure, or want me to try something else, feel free to ask and I'll let you know whether I think I can manage it.

A - Archery, Arrow, Oliver -- Protect and Survive
B - Blue - SGA - John/Rodney -- Bitter and Blue
C
D - Donuts, Welcome to Night Vale, any -- The Most Important Snack Food of All
E

J
K
L - Lucky - White Collar - Neal-Centric (Pairing(s) Optional)
M - Movie Night, Avengers, any
N - New seed - Plants vs. Zombies -- Seeds of Doom
O - Old friends, NCIS, Gibbs/Ducky -- The Long Goodbye
P - Procrastination, Agents of SHIELD, any -- Neverending Forms
Q

X is for Xenophile, X-Files, any ^-^

"Mulder, what are you eating?" Scully asked as Mulder spread his lunch out across his desk.

"Charoset," Mulder replied, slathering some kind of spread on a piece of matzoh.

"Charoset."

"Yes, charoset. A sweet, dark paste made from fruit and nuts."

"Right. And why are you eating it?"

"It's traditionally eaten on matzoh during Passover."

"Uh-huh, but why are you eating it?"

"It's Passover?"

"All these years of working together and I had no idea you were Jewish."

"Oh, I'm not, I just always appreciate a chance to eat matzoh and charoset."

"Oo-kay... well, enjoy, I guess."

"Thanks, I will."

-------------------------------------
(sorry for the quality of this, the drabble fought me a LOT)

Ah ha ha! It is very very Mulder, and I can definitely hear Scully's voice - thank you!

P is for Procrastination, Agents of SHIELD, any

Melinda May looked at the pile of paperwork in front of her. She'd filled out the fuel usage and request forms (the 55718b and c) as well as the one to schedule the biannual maintenance for the Bus (all six pages of the it), but the A72b (detailed mileage accounting) and the V4903aa ? In triplicate? She was going to need coffee for those. A lot of coffee. And a snack. Actually, she should probably check her figures and it wouldn't hurt to wait to do that until she could look at it with fresh eyes sometime later.

Like tomorrow.

♥ I've always suspected that her overwhelming competence extends to procrastination!

A is for Archery, Arrow, Oliver :D

Oliver knows he is very skilled with the bow and arrow. It's a skill honed by the kind of need for survival that most of the world will, thankfully, never know. It's rare for someone's life to literally rely on such weapon in the modern world, but he loves its elegance and accuracy.

He sometimes entertained the idea of letting his abilities be seen by the world, retiring the vigilante and trying out for the US archery team or some such nonsense. He'd be good, gold metal material if the numbers held up, but then who would protect his city?

I would love to see Oliver as an Olympic archer. Nnngh. (But I guess the safety of the city is more important.)

B - Blue - SGA - John/Rodney

On the rare occasion that Colonel Sheppard went on a mission without Doctor McKay people knew to avoid the doctor at all costs. It just wasn't worth the certainty that he would verbally and abrasively attack a person for them to dare breathe too loudly or walk too softly or simply exist within his sainted presence. Most everyone became inured to it fairly quickly and didn't even mind taking alternate routes or walking out of their way to do so. After all, things would go back to normal once the Colonel returned, he just missed him while he was gone.

D'awwwwww.... *gives Rodney a hug*

S - Sneeze - NCIS - Tony/Gibbs

D is for donuts, Welcome to Night Vale, any

With the wheat and wheat-by-products ban there were many favorite foods that were no longer accessible in Night Vale. Birthdays began to be celebrated with ice cream cake instead of the previously popular sponge and whipped cream variety. Lunches were suddenly sandwich free and the morning bagel was suddenly replaced by the corn breakfast burrito.

In general following the ban was difficult, but there was one aspect of it that was horrible: the sudden lack of donuts in town. That was at least until the members of the Sheriff's secret police banded together to come up with a wheatless variety.

Never thought I'd say this, but good for the Sheriff's secret police! Nicely done. :)

Bwa ha ha ha, of course they would! Or they might decide that the law doens't apply to them. Or do that and lie about their 'wheatless' donuts >.>

M is for Movie Night, Avengers, any

N for New seed - Plants vs. Zombies

Dr. Zomboss is not a fan of plants. Plants in general and plants in specific. He hates the plants that shoot peas, he loathes the ones that splat his zombies with butter and he despises the ones that steal their helmets, ladders and pogo sticks. But, most of all, Dr. Zomboss hates the winter melon. The winter melon looks innocent enough when it's just a simple little seed, but then it grows into the powerful melon-putt, which is damaging enough, but when it turns into the hated winter melon? Enough of those and the yard may be lost for good.

Heee! I am glad he has enough brains to strategise.

(I use winter melons all the time. Huzzah for delaying effects.)

*eyes sidebar* Any previous fandom? Okay then. R is for Runaway, Winnie the Pooh, whatever character suits you.

The boy who showed up in Hundred Acre Wood was not Christopher Robin, that was clear, even to a bear with Very Little Brain like Winnie-the-Pooh. As it turned out, the boy was not a boy but a girl, but that was not determined until they were introduced.

The introduction went like this:

"Hallo!" cried the Bear. "I am Edward Bear. My friends call me Winnie-the-Pooh."

"Hello, I'm Mary."

"Are you a Woozle?"

"No, I'm a girl."

"Are you lost?"

"No. I ran away and now I'm here. With you."

And thus Winnie-the-Pooh began his adventures with Mary, the runaway.

L - Lucky - White Collar - Neal-Centric (Pairing(s) Optional)

G - Game - Highlander - Methos-Centric

O - Old friends: NCIS Gibbs & Ducky or Gibbs & Fornell

If that is okay.

sorry this took so long, the writing muse went on vacation without me
(warning for depressing fic)

The Long Goodbye

Ducky reached out tentatively, his fingertips just barely touching as he tentatively stroked Jethro's cheekbone. "Oh, Jethro," he sighed. Growing more confident, his touch became stronger as he ran his fingers over the laugh lines and then down the soft sideburns before tracing over that familiar yet unfamiliar strong jaw. "Whatever possessed us to wait so long?"

With a final cupping of Jethro's cheek in his hand he took a deep breath, steeled himself, and turned on the recorder. "The time is nineteen hundred hours on Thursday, May twenty-seventh, medical examiner Donald Mallard presiding. Victim is Supervisory Special agent Jethro...."

No worries - I know all about that kind of holiday.

*Swallows hard*

Wow . . . This is lovely and so very moving (even if it is upsetting).

You've got so much emotion in such so few words. And it's so very real.

Thank you very much.
