Title: ‘Until you wake up’
Fandom: Original story
Prompt: Hamartia (tragic mistake)
Warnings: Angst, I guess.
Rating: Safe for anyone to read.
Summary: Fear and entrapment in your own head. Because where else can you hide?
I used the Hamartia prompt to write this story, because in my opinion lack of communication between people who are perfectly well equipped to communicate might lead to tragic mistakes. The question is, is it one person making the mistake, or more? Who’s guilty? Now you tell me where it all leads.

Until you wake up

Taming the Muse, fic 4 in this run. Prompt Kleptomanicac ended up in a Grey's Anatomy gen fic.

Title: Kleptomaniac
Fandom: Grey's Anatomy
Prompt: Kleptomaniac
Warnings: Swearing. Callie swears a lot in my fic.
Rating: uh... safe for anyone who doesn't mind swearing, it even sticks to canon.
Summary: Meredith, Alex and Callie's thoughts on the nature of theft.

We take without asking, we take without permission or an invitation. We’re thieves.

Title: White Apple
Fandom: Original
Prompt: Crabapple
Warnings: Femmeslash, very mild, though
Rating: Safe for everyone. Except the femmeslash bit.
Summary: A fairy tale about a witch and apple trees.
A/N: What is it with me and lesbian witches? Hm. Must be a kink, or something. I blame Buffyverse. Also: Sabiha means morning, Jamira means orchard. Don’t ask me how Arabic names got into my fairy tale, I really don’t know.

Her name was Isa and she was destined to disappear in less than an hour.

Well now. A Supernatural fic. Hmm.

Title: Knowledge
Fandom: Supernatural
Prompt: Osmosis
Rating: Safe for all.
Warnings: None. It's even spoiler free. Unless you haven't seen the Pilot.
Summary: Jessica thinks about what she knows and doesn't know - about life and about Sam.
Notes: Criticize me gently - it's my first SPN fic :]

She knows how to drive a truck and a bus and knows that she absolutely can’t drive in smaller cars - five accidents under her belt taught her that.

Yes, I know I'm a little late, bear with me. If that's illegal towards the community rules - feel free to delate this post.

Title: "Untitled scrabble fic"
Fandom: Firefly
Prompt: Squander
Warnings: Mild slash presence. Because I'm a Mal/Simon slasher.
Rating: Safe for everyone. Except the tiny slash bit, so if it squeaks you, don't bother.
Summary: Part of the crew plays scrabble.
Additional notes: This could be considered as a part of Going back (orion prompt), but not necessarily so.

Seeing her brother’s look of confusion she added in her ‘you are such an idiot’ tone of voice, “It’s scrabble, Simon.” She rattled a small bag sewn out of one of Kaylee’s cleaning rags. “I made the tiles really pretty, too.”

Title: Blue Cat Cafe
Fandom: Harry Potter
Prompt: Pygmy
Warnings: contains femmeslash/ is unbetaed.
Rating: safe for everyone, except that femmeslash thing (and the fact that I’m writing this as I’m half-conscious... :P)
Summary: It’s not a comedy, it’s not angst, it’s a conversation between Ginny and Ron, set post-war. Hopefully it turned out natural enough :)

( My girlfriend’s gone mad,” states Ginny Weasley plopping down on her chair opposite her brother. )

Title: Dancing on water
Fandom: original story
Prompt: Glissade
Warnings: Femmeslash ahead. Nudity. Nothing explicit, though.
Rating: PG-13 for nudity and femmeslash.
Summary: A fairy tale about a witch trying to find a treasure.
Notes: This one is for shadow_in_eden. *hugs* I hope this works as 'pretty' for you ;)

( There is a legend saying that a witch dancing on water can make somebody fall in love with her. )

Title: Watching
Fandom: Firefly
Prompt: Riptide [a strong surface current flowing outwards from a shore]
Warnings: None
Rating: R
Summary: River looks into the subject of feelings and how people feel and think. A gen fic that basically goes along with canon. [which is pretty odd for me] and can be placed in almost any point of the series.

( It comes from the inside. Feeling. Like a riptide. )

Title: The Girly Stuff
Fandom: Lost
Prompt: Semper fidelis
Warnings: Uhm… I played with the plot a little. Shan&Boone are very much alive. The fic’s on the shmoopy side of happy. ‘Cause I say so.
Rating: Pg. Just to be on the safe side ;)
Summary: Claire, Shannon, Ana and Kate have a lazy day by the waterfalls.
Notes: With best wishes for novin_ha. Happy birthday, darling! Even if it’s a little early ;) [The mottos are actual mottos of fraternities and sororities I found at Wikipedia, btw.]
Big thanks for one_lill_witch who let me use her computer to write this.

( You gotta choose, honey: a cream-cake or an orgasm )

Title: Going back
Fandom: Firefly
Prompt: Orion
Warnings: Slash. A little kissing. Maybe some groping. And a major shmoop alert.
Rating: Aww, geez I’m really no good at that. PG-13, I’d say.
Summary: River wants to visit the parents. Simon doesn’t.
AN: According to Wikipedia “The stars were associated with Osiris, the god of death and underworld, by the ancient Egyptians. The Giza pyramid complex, which consists of the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Pyramid of Khafre and the Pyramid of Menkaure, is said to be a sky-map of the Belt of Orion, that is, of Osiris.” This is why the prompt ‘orion’ turned into a Firefly fic :) Possibly a first part of something slightly longer.

Castaway fic

Title: Her insanity
Fandom: LOST
Prompt: Castaway
Warnings: none.
Rating: Uhm... G, I think.
Summary: Rousseau meets a strange man. Stranger than herself. They exchange a few thoughts about madness.
AN: I'm not exactly proud of this fic, but it's been running around my head for a while now and the prompt 'castaway' just begged to be used here ;) (Plus, it's a Lost fic! The irony of that one just can't go amiss :P)

( On the contrary, watching the man one can get the feeling that he is the one who stops the rain from falling freely and slows the wind down with his resolve and steady determination to finish the job. )
