Aliah takes her arguments to Jim.... only someone probably should have  told her that Jim can be a bastard when he's poked and Aliah.... she's  definitely a poker.

Playing God
Jim/Blair, Rafe/OFC

Taming the muse: Cross examination

Summary: Aliah adores the fact that Blair is an open spirit raised by a free-minded and strong woman. However, when she realizes that he is
denying himself love--specifically love for his police partner, Jim--she feels a need to intervene. She knows what it is to want something you
can never have, and she won't let Blair suffer that way. If it takes a little playing God, she is the woman up for the job.

Pairing: Lock/Gary
Fandom: Original
Prompt: Taming the Muse, any joke in a storm
Warning: none... this is just a fragment of an idea.


Gary Clayton is good at hiding behind a façade of confident heterosexuality, at least most of the time. At least until now. Now he’s stuck in a job with Lock Roma, a man who seems to have taken an instant dislike to him and worse, he’s everything Gary wants to be—independent, strong, and openly gay. For his part, Lock never expects fair. Life has kicked him in the balls too often for that; however, he’s good at laughing at life and himself. Sometimes people doubt his ability to swing a whip because of his humor and his vertically challenged body, but he can Dom with the best. He’s never wanted to do more than play, though. However, both men are about to learn that appearance can be deceiving, and love is a nasty little bugger with a sense of humor sharp enough to sting.

Not sure where this came from. Blame the Taming the Muse prompt.

Title: Irrepressible
Genre: m/m
Rating: safe in this part
Warning: this is a bit that came to me. If I decide to develop it, it might go into my original fiction community that you're welcome to join, but right now this is just where the Taming the Muse prompt took me.
Prompt: Melody

Fandom: ORIGINAL
Pairing: David/Alan

Summary:
David Gidley enjoys a good life with money, a job he loves, and the respect of his business partners. His father’s health is failing, but he can lock that into a small box labeled “Emotionally Repress.” His love life is more of a random sex life, which leaves little room for honest affection, but that fits in that same box. However, when Alan comes into his life, he finds that it’s hard to lock away uncomfortable feelings when you’re with someone who is utterly irrepressible. However, no relationship is perfect, and Alan comes with his own issues, leading David to wonder if he has to choose between the life he loves, and the man he’s quickly coming to suspect he loves.
