aftermath, Transformers (live action movieverse) Tech. Sergeant Robert Epps
Date: 2011-10-10 04:30 am (UTC)Notes: set post Revenge of the Fallen
He’d always wanted to see Cairo, but not like this. Not in the wake of a battle where they’d lost a lot of friends and were still picking shrapnel out of the survivors. Not when they’d disobeyed orders and were now waiting for the court martial, despite the fact that they’d saved the world. Not when he didn’t even have time to process how different the place felt from any other city he’d visited.
In a way, he appreciated that they were all waiting on the hot tarmac of a private airstrip. Kept Galloway from ruining the experience any further.

Date: 2011-10-10 06:02 pm (UTC)Recovery, Transformers (Live Action Movieverse), Jorge "Fig" Figueroa (guest sarring Capt. Lennox)
Date: 2011-10-10 04:45 am (UTC)Fig sat in his favorite chair on his mama’s back porch, watching the swamp. If he was quiet enough, and still enough, sometimes the gators would climb onto the bank where he could see them. It was illegal now, but he and his papa used to use the opportunity to shoot one for meat when he was younger.
Now he wasn’t sure his hand would ever be steady enough to shoot again.
“You know, these damn mosquitoes are going to eat you alive.” He jumped at his CO’s voice. “Your mom sent me out. Thought you could use some company.”

Date: 2011-10-10 06:03 pm (UTC)Seize the Day, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Zach & Trini
Date: 2011-10-10 05:19 am (UTC)“So what do you do when you like someone but have no clue how to tell them that you do?”
Trini blinked and looked at Zack. “What?”
“Well there’s this girl, and I really like her. But I don’t know how to tell her that I do.”
“You should just say something.” Trini smiled at her friend. “Just be yourself and ask her to go out for a shake or something.”
“Right. Be myself. Okay, I can do that.” Zach turned back to their homework before he spoke again. “Hey, Trini? You wanna go get a shake with me sometime?”
Time to Depart, Zombie Powder, Gamma & Smith (prompt 3)
Date: 2011-10-10 10:51 am (UTC)Except.
"Still got you with me, don't I?"
"Indeed." Smith smiled. People had killed themselves trying to get away from that smile. "Point well made."

Date: 2011-10-11 05:39 pm (UTC)Seize...something, Aliens, Apone, Vasquez
Date: 2011-10-10 11:04 am (UTC)“Line it up, people! Glorious Corps’ got better things to do than wait on your sorry asses.” Gunnery-Sergeant Apone took a second to re-align the set of his cap. “Seize the day! What you waiting on, Hudson? An engraved invitation? Musta got lost in the mail.”
“With his mail-order nuts.”
“And your mail-order looks, Drake.” Vasquez tightened the knot on her bandana, stepping into line next to the other gunner. “Seize your fuckin’ day.”
“Font of inspiration,” Hudson mumbled. “Gonna seize the day and throw it between you two.”
Vasquez grinned, punching Drake’s shoulder. “And we’ll shoot it to pieces.”
Re: Seize...something, Aliens, Apone, Vasquez

Point and Shoot, God's War, Nyx & Rhys (prompt 2)
Date: 2011-10-10 10:02 pm (UTC)Something moved in the square. Nyx squinted, raised her rifle--and nearly dropped it as beetles swarmed into her mouth and eyes.
"You missed your shot," Rhys observed over the com.
"You can't keep the bugs off me, you get up here and shoot," Nyx snarled back. "Worthless excuse for a magician.
Silence.
"To your left," Rhys said, a moment before she saw the target reappear. It wasn't an apology, but she'd take it. And the shot.
Fifth Wheel, Burn Notice, Jesse (prompt 3)
Date: 2011-10-10 11:00 pm (UTC)It's not like he doesn't have friends of his own who know a thing or two about hacking cell phones and faking files. Yeah, he could put together a team.
Then he thinks about Marv, crumpled on blood-soaked pavement: reason #1 not to pull friends into this line of work. And if it's a choice between Michael's team or working alone--well, he'll take feeling like an outsider. Better that than dead.
Charity Work, Osamu Tezuka's Black Jack, Dr. Black Jack
Date: 2011-10-10 11:12 pm (UTC)It had been years since Black Jack had been to Cairo. He at least remembered how to thank the hotel staff in their language. His appearance attracted attention, especially the black cloak in this heat, but that never stopped.
His patient awaited in a wealthy neighborhood. He would pay whatever the unlicensed doctor chose to charge, which was plenty. But he had another letter in his pocket, a plea from someone in another part of Cairo.
That patient he would treat for the challenge, he told himself. But really, sometimes integrity mattered more than being the great Dr. Black Jack.
Family Standing, Stargate SG-1, Drey'auc
Date: 2011-10-10 11:23 pm (UTC)----
Single handedly her husband had destroyed the standing of their family and the faith that Lord Apophis had once had in them.
Her Teal'c had betrayed their family and Lord Apophis to join with the Tau'ri.
It was thanks to him that she would now have to work hard to regain the faith of Lord Apophis. It was her hope that his faith in them be restored and it that would be to secure her son a place in the coming Prim'ta ceremony.
She would ensure that her family regained its footing and honor in the eyes of Lord Apophis.
Re: Family Standing, Stargate SG-1, Drey'auc
Date: 2011-10-11 12:48 am (UTC)Friction, Bleach, Renji (prompt 7)
Date: 2011-10-11 12:22 pm (UTC)Byakuya's having taken Rukia and making himself her family was just one small part of it, really.
Icons, Happy Endings, Francis and Brad Williams
Date: 2011-10-11 03:57 pm (UTC)Rules of the Game, Star Wars, Lando Calrissian (prompt 5)
Date: 2011-10-12 10:45 am (UTC)If he doesn't take advantage of it, someone else will. Simple as that, really. It helps that he's good at what he does, too.
Know when to quit is something he picks up later in life. Often, it's not even that the other guy is better. It's just that there's sore losers, and really sore losers. The first are annoying, the second more trouble than the stakes are worth, generally.
Of course, you can't quit anything without starting something first. You must seize the day
