ceitfiannaI'm having a wonderful birthday so far. I slept in a little later than I meant to before driving to Jackson to hang out with dodger_sister, who wrote me a Charles/Erik story called Burned in all the Best Ways as a present and gave me a comic retelling of the Hades and Persephone story. andrealyn, this fic had parts that made me think of threading with you and how Charles and Erik get under each other's skin. We watched The Faculty, ate delicious hoagies and cupcakes and had a lazy day.
I talked to my parents and one of my brothers and family called to sing me happy birthday, even one of their dogs was getting into it and barking in the background.
Tomorrow I'm going to treat myself to a massage and other fun things, then Sunday, brunch withthe_croupier. I'm considering this weekend also posting Charles in celebrating getting his degree as that should be fun. All the plot stuff for that cast is coming together and I love it, soon we can play in recruiting time and have mutants in the Bar together.
My parents told me there's a package in the mail for me and my day has been full of well wishes. Life is feeling wonderful and I plan on stretching my celebrating out.
Today I also ended up writing quite a lot of FridayFics on Twitter, which I'm going to copy and paste here. At some point I'll put them up on Ao3, but or now, this is the best way for me to keep track of them. I think I've caught everything but there are always so many great prompts and fills.
For @laharcourt
William and Jack: rodeo
When Jack was on the bronc, William didn't dare breath but after, they walked the crowd with beers and William kept on smiling.
Caspian and Tumnus: exploration.
They had taken over a table with a map of Narnia exploring what they knew. Under all they said, home echoed as their tea cooled.
Charles and Emma: I know you better than you think.
"You have a family. You don't know about being lonely." "Emma, I do understand always looking in, touching on the edges, lonely."
For @afullmargin
Michael didn't like his birthday, another day getting by but he went riding with William and dancing with Emma. He even smiled.
For @tauntingdragons
William/Thalia - A wildfire in the heart
He knew the feel of anger, tight in his chest to hurt a man. She left him something else, confusion and wanting behind her.
For @zellyb
Tom/Jane: idealistic sceneries
The roof leaked, there were mice in the attic and it wasn't the best neighboorhood yet she could write and every night he came home.
Charles: closest friends: Two versions-younger with Raven, older with Erik
Friends had always been tricky, he told secrets he wasn't supposed to know and did the wrong things. Raven was his friend and sister.
Erik prodded him, asking why and why not as he invited himself inside Charles' head and life. He'd never had such a friend and more.
Charles/Iris: shiver
She loved the rain, it was part of her, but it did leave him with a cold. As he shivered under a warm blanket, she fretted over tea.
Charles/Jess: a charming little spell
"Bippity, boppity, boo," Jess sang as she twirled until she heard/felt Charles laughing and tugged him up to dance and sing with her
For @wanderlustlover
Will - my heart
His heart kept aching, he wanted to love again, but his heart should wait. Milliways was kind but Sherwood must come first.
Charles - unwanted compromises
"Gifted children, its true but not enough. " "Maybe in time we can change it to mutants. Is it level?" "Yes, Hank, it'll do."
Charles & Jean - (my) little girl, draped in flames
The Phoenix, he didn't understand it, not like he should but he saw how it filled her with flames and added to her truths.
Tumnus & Caspian - to know they can't come back again
Tumnus leans against the doorframe as Caspian steadies him as they watch and know there's nothing left of home.
Sameth - to shape the unshapable
He's heard engineers talk of planning how to build something, when he knows that he can think ahead but the Charter leads.
Jane - writing of love
Words of love came in many forms; nervous men pouring out their hearts, women bargaining for love, kisses, her pen knew them.
For @bjornwylde
William-Rain
He loved rain. The dusts of Arizona turned to mud, but it was just easier to hope when it was raining. Troubles would float away.
Sameth-Fireflies
When he was deep in his work, the Charter flickered and flamed around him. He felt it in his skin, his blood, he knew who he was
Moist-Libraries
He loved books, a properly made book was a gateway and a tool. Libraries weren't common on the Disc, so he lost time in them.
For @thisisyourfault
Dem - Growth
She knew life in all its form, it called to her and with Spring, she reached down to living things and asked: welcome her.
Moist - Upstanding Citizen
His suit itched and his feet itched as he stood in the Oblong Office as part of those who ran the city, worse than a cell.
Tumnus - Fear
When the world grows quiet and heavy with Winter, Tumnus dreams of silence and stillness that wrap him till he wakes afraid
For @miz_missy
Demeter and Clem, healing
Clem couldn't seem to stop crying, she knew she'd be alone. Demeter didn't say anything just hugged her and sang to her of home.
