"I suppose it's still better him than you, but..." Reeve sighed, pushing the tabloid away.

"Rude generally has a talk with him about it," Rufus shrugged, wrapping fingers around his morning coffee.

Reeve, still caffeinating himself, blinked. The cover of the tabloid displayed Reno, nude and painted in vivid shades of colored body latex, with different colored cocktails in either hand, surrounded by dancers. "...This happens a lot?"

Rufus drank some of his coffee and studied the cover again. "It's been worse," he decided. "He's wearing paint this time."

Reeve decided a refill was in order. "Turks are very strange."

Title: Meeting
Characters/Pairings: Most of the Shinra executives
Rating: G
Team: SOLDIER.
Word Count: 120
Series: Crisis Core
Prompt: First Line
Author's Notes: First line is from "Celtic Beauty" by Winifred Phillips. "Leborcham" changed to "Lazard", "king" to "president", and "her" to his".

Lazard could not help watching the president with an undercurrent of contempt in his eyes. Fortunately the room was dark and he knew that his father was too wrapped up in his own pompous blustering and graphs declaring Shinra’s might to monitor the reactions of the executives seated before him. Heiddeger’s snoring would draw unwanted attention, but glares, eye rolls and carefully controlled expressions of disbelief could take place with the president none the wiser.

As Lazard glanced around the table, he noted doodles of weapons schematics and molecular formulas, a haiku written in Old Wutainese, and Sephiroth’s almost completed buzzword bingo sheet. He glanced down at his own card and got back to work.

Rating: G

A/N: I blame my colleague for this. :) She gave me the prompt “reincarnation as a flower pot”. I turned it into a pun. (“Huā pén” = 1. flower pot, 2. feminine man)

Huā pén (Flower pot)

A sudden violent movement shook the bed and jolted him awake. Drowsy, he forced open his eyes and found himself looking at Tseng’s sitting form in the gloom. He was staring at the far end of the room with a puzzled and disturbed look on his face.

“What is it?” Rufus asked with a voice hoarse from sleep.

Tseng looked at him. “I had the weirdest dream... That I’d been reincarnated as a flower pot. All bright pink and with flowers painted on it.” He shuddered. “This is your fault, Rufus, talking me into your bed and calling me pretty.”

In this together

Kneeling on the floor where he’d fallen, Rufus slapped his hand away, hard.

His limbs shook under the strain as he tried to climb back into the wheelchair with his last shreds of strength. The Geostigma attacks grew more numerous and violent by the week, leaving him weak and exhausted. But Rufus fiercely resisted any assistance.

Frustrated by the imposed helplessness, Tseng stood by his side and watched as he struggled to lift himself high enough to get into the seat.

“Rufus...” he started, remembering the lectures the old president had given his son, and extended his hand once more. “Having someone help you doesn’t mean you’re a failure, it just means you’re not in it alone.”

It was the night after his first real mission. Light from the hallway fell into his apartment as he opened the front door.

Everything was as he left it. The couches by the bookshelf forming an L around the coffee table, the painting on the wall, the dinner table by the window, the makeshift shrine in the corner. There was the faded scent of incense, ginger, cooked rice and carpet.

In a daze, he stepped inside, mud falling from his boots and just stood there, covered from head to toe in blood, grime and gunpowder.

This was a stranger’s home.

I missed the last prompt by 12 hours, so here it is now for 'past prompts 3'. (We could've had the trophy, Turks!)

And I just want to say respect to Yohjideraged for faithfully posting prompts even though there's is very little to no reply sometimes. d^_^b I wouldn't have been able to do that.

Title: Average Joe
Prompt: Heavenly virtues: humility / Past prompts 3
Character: Veld, Tseng
Series: OGC
Team: Turks
Rating: G
Word count: 100

Note: The name ‘Tseng’ is the Chinese equivalent of ‘John’ and its variants.

A man in a dark suit towered above him as he sat kneeling in the mud. A gun hovered before his eyes.

“What’s your name?”

From fading memories echoed the sound of his long name, followed by the endless list of titles, spoken with worship and respect. He recalled the giant halls the words had echoed through, and the voices of his family.

He remembered the singing of blades, the spill of blood and screams in the air. After, a blur of fire, sea and foreign voices.

Emperors were gods, but died like any average Joe.

He looked up. “Tseng.”

Humility was found in abundance last week. Avalanche and the Turks get to share the trophy this week as they both brought in 20 points to tie for first place. SOLDIER is having Genesis look humility up in the dictionary.

This week's prompt is #138 - Past Prompts

This week we are having a prompt free-for-all.

Maybe there was a prompt for which you didn't get a chance to write, or maybe you feel that there was one in which you could have written more, or maybe you just have a favorite prompt you just want to see again. All the prompts are listed in the sidebar of the community or on this page.
