the_deep_magicOkay, so I'm kind of frustrated with myself at the moment. Instead of working on all the fics I need to finish, I started yet another lengthy AU. :oP Anyway, I want to kick my Muse's ass a bit, so I'm going to borrow a meme that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
ewinfic did a few weeks ago:
Leave a comment prompt. The prompt should be one of my fics and a time interval.
Examples:
"Fic Title, the next morning"
"Fic Title, three months before"
"Fic Title, two years later"
"Fic Title, in between this event and that event"
I will respond with a comment fic. This is your chance to find out what happened before, or after, or during. My master fic list is here -- go nuts!
IMPORTANT: I will only accept titles and time intervals as prompts, no plot elements. So "Yellow Light, two years later" would be fine, but "Yellow Light, two years later, they buy their first house together" would not. Got it? Also, I'll try to see that everyone who comments gets at least one fic in return, but if you want to give me multiple options to pic from, that's fine!
Prompting is now closed -- please check back here for fills.
If you didn't get to put a prompt in, don't worry! I'm sure I'll do this meme again. :o)

Re: Yellow Light, one year later, PG (2/2)
Date: 2010-05-13 06:14 am (UTC)He spotted her in a corner booth, head down, reading a book – they were a few minutes late by now. She didn’t look up until they got to her table. “Oh, Mr. Quinto!” she said, startled.
“Please, call me Zach,” he said, offering his hand. “So sorry we’re late.”
Zach saw it register on her face that he hadn’t come alone and barely kept himself from laughing at the perfect double take she did when she saw Chris. “Oh my god, Chr— Mr. Pine!”
“It’s Chris,” he said, shaking her hand while Zach slid into the booth. Chris followed a moment later, and they didn’t bother to sit a respectable distance away from each other.
“I, um, I didn’t know I’d be speaking to both of you,” she said, fumbling with her tape recorder as she pulled it from her bag.
“It was meant to be a surprise,” Zach said. “One of several, actually.”
“I hope that’s okay,” Chris cut in quickly, setting his hands on the table.
“Yes, yes, fine,” she said brightly, finally getting the recorder set up and switching it on.
Zach took a deep breath and glanced at Chris, who nodded solemnly. Then Zach reached up and set his hand over Chris’ on the table, twining their fingers. The young woman tried very hard not to stare at their joined hands, but failed. Zach laughed softly and began.
“It started about three months after Star Trek came out…”

Date: 2010-05-13 02:13 pm (UTC)Chris' nerves and the debate they had about doing this was fantastic! And you said it yourself – we can’t take it back.”<--- Perfect! Of course they would have talked about this, argued about it and been nervous about it. Of course!
And, oh my goodness, the reporter? Amazing! I was chuckling while reading. She is such a lovely fangril! ;)
