1. Give me the name of a character you know I'm familiar with. I don't necessarily have to know their canon if you know I've roleplayed with them or read fanfiction about them before.

2. Give me a number between 1 and 10.

3. Give me an emotion or a verb.

((First prompt! Also, I'm taking seven to refer to how many separate paragraphs/lines I'll use, because orz how do I conciseness.))

"There's no 'h', just 'Z-a-c-k'."

"Z-a-c-k Fair?"

"That's me," he confirmed, mouth splitting into a comfortable grin.

"Huh... Funny, that sounds real familiar. You said you were SOLDIER? I could've sworn..."

"What?" The green recruit beside them jumped in, looking back and forth with wide eyes. "Hey, Mr, you worked with Shinra, right? Maybe you knew Zack when he was there, too!"

"Maybe," agreed the man, rubbing his chin. "I donno..." His eyes raked Zack's appearance again, coming to rest on his hair. Zack felt something shift in his stomach, and didn't know why.

"...'Kid I knew wasn't blonde..."

[lithic_rune]

Omg.

Omg, Zal, you tease.

[/grabby hands and loves on you for this.]

((Second prompt. ... Screw it, the numbers you're providing are guidelines.))

Danny never talked about the future more than he absolutely had to. He never brought up who remembered what, and after a while people stopped trying to work out the full story. He'd beaten the badguy. The 'evil jerky future self' was simply gone.

Tucker suspected; it was in the little things, and he more than even Sam knew just how much conviction Danny had in keeping his loved one safe.

Still, he hadn't expected Danny's look when they were playing Never Have I Never, and someone jokingly tossed out 'Never have I killed.'

[lithic_rune]

Oh Danny. ;-;

Poor kid is forever traumatized.

[zalein]

I know, right? And given how he acts in the show, he's doing his damndest well best not to show it, and is somehow good enough that most people don't even notice.

((Prompt from AIM:
1. Egon Spengler
2. 3
3. Uncertain))

Egon worked through the specs of how their tech worked so thoroughly that he could troubleshoot and simulate them in his sleep. He had to: people's lives depended on them working properly.

There was no room for uncertainty.

((Oh man I don't have these written out yet but I already have great ideas for these. Just letting you know.))

[lithic_rune]

((Ehehe, I look forward to it.))

Zack, 8, crossdress

[evowhisperer]

Cloud didn't just look good in a dress. He looked amazing. Slinky dark fabric hugged curves in a way that both attracted the eye and pleased it. The artful brush strokes he applied to his face turned his temporarily-default apprehensive look to something coy. He was seductive, alluring, and elegant, and no one knew how he made it work so well.

He didn't know, either. All he did was rely on what seemed right, calling for advice from the same part of himself that told him to keep carrying the Buster Sword. He thought he heard delighted laughter in his mind after the first time he applied mascara successfully, but when he paused to focus on it, there was no derision to be found:

He cleaned up good.

[lithic_rune]

Ahaha, it took me this long to figure out how you sneakily filled the "Zack" part of the prompt. XD

Eeee, this was awesome!

[ghostboy]

Haha, my original thought was for it all to be about how Zack was somehow the original crossdresser of the two, and that Cloud was just calling on his past skill, but I like how it's a little more ambiguous here!

I'm glad you like it!!
