notice + meme + fic
Jun. 29th, 2008 10:00 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Notice: I will be unavailable until the 12th of July. Completely. If I don't report back, I have been killed and eaten by the undergrown monsters known as children. XD
Ganked from FList: Set iTunes to random, write a flashfic for the first ten songs that come up.
I switched them around for your reading convenience, according to fandom. :) Enjoy!
"Give Me Novocaine", Green Day
“How are you feeling?” Duo asked, tightening the bandage around Heero’s arm.
“Hurts,” Heero all but groaned, and Duo couldn’t blame him.
“’S what you get from jumping off building onto unstable territory with no one to catch you. You’re lucky you have someone to load you up with morphine afterwards.” Duo tapped the syringe with his fingernail. Duo swabbed the insides of Heero’s elbow with a cotton pad and made the injection.
“I guess…” Further thoughts dissipated in the pleasant haze of the administered drug, leaving Heero relaxed. “Thanks,” he muttered sleepily, brushing his fingers against Duo’s hand.
“You’re welcome.”
"Do They Know It’s Christmas Time", Band Aid
Duo turned up at Heero’s doorstep, shining with snowflakes and frost. “Dude, your place couldn’t be more depressing,” he said, elbowing Heero aside. He was carrying a forest-smelling bodybag on his shoulder.
“What?”
“Better tidy up the reports, Relena will be here in a minute and unlike me, she won’t understand what a pissy bitch Une can be without her reports.”
“What?” Heero asked again, overwhelmed with the package Duo was dropping into his hands. It smelt like food.
“Christmas, man.” Duo grinned and set about unpacking the tree.
"Hallelujah Chorus (Messiah)", George Haendel
Heero had no idea when did Duo find the time to practice, or who let him into the church, but he had to admit his solos were inspired.
And not entirely bereft of irony.
"Against All Odds", Phil Collins
“That’s so it,” Goku said, grabbing the edge of the desk and flipping it over. The heavy oak desk moved through the air as smoothly as the many papers flying off its surface. If it required effort on Goku’s part, he didn’t let it show. “You will stop with the bullshit right now!”
The tone, so unlike the lovable moron, raised Sanzo’s hackles. “Don’t tell me what to do, you ape!”
“Either tell me to fuck off, or shut the hell up and cooperate!”
“Fine, fuck off!”
“Great job,” Goku grabbed the armrests of Sanzo’s chair and leaned over the priest, so close their noses almost touched. “Look me in the eye and at least pretend you mean it, asshole!”
Sanzo remained silent.
"Coloured spade", from Hair
The next morning all they could remember was a vague impression of colour and dancing. There’d been a fire, and air that smelled funny. But mostly what they remembered was dancing.
You couldn’t help but remember the vision of Sanzo dancing.
"No Bravery", James Blunt
They didn’t want to come this way, but it was the only road for miles. They had little choice.
Someone had taken their time with destroying this village. There was rubble and smoking ruins everywhere. Bodies, half-decomposed corpses clinging to one another. Goku smelt them hours before they even came close.
But the worst thing weren’t the bodies, but the survivors. Gojyo dug his fingers into Goku’s air and pulled, until the monkey was staring at the sky and held his head unmoving when he noticed the first out of the corner of his eye. He knew he wouldn’t ever forget, but he could hope Goku wouldn’t see.
"Lilac Wine", Jeff Buckley
Sanzo experienced a complete high, for the first time in his life, when, the day after stopping the Gyumaoh experiment, he found himself straddling Goku in the orchard which seemed to have sprung up overnight behind the castle.
That was it. He had fulfilled all the duties anyone had ever placed before him, and now he had nothing left. Nothing but Goku.
He liked the feeling, he discovered with astonishment.
"Far Longer Than Forever", from Swan Princess
“I am going to get Dean out of hell,” Sam had said, “if I have to walk down there playing a lyre.”
Except, he couldn’t find a lyre at first, and when he finally did he was so fed up with looking and hoping and wishing, and knowing that Dean is in pain, that he set the goddamned thing on fire and turned up at Hell’s door with a tambourine.
It worked just as well, and he didn’t need lessons to play it adequately.
"Lady in Red", Chris De Burgh
The slow-dancing aliens were pushing it, Dean decided. And the red dress somehow made it worse. “Fuck you, Sam!” he yelled at the ceiling.
Stupid Antichrist Super Star little brother.
"Get Off Of My Cloud", Rolling Stones
It wasn’t Zack’s fault. How was he to know that the general would object so vehemently to finding Zack straddling Cloud. Alright, maybe there was some cause for jealousy, because let’s face it, Cloud made the cutest sheet decoration one could imagine, but attempting an Armageddon seemed just a tad excessive.
At least in Zack’s opinion.
