Title: Chapter 10: Locked Away
Author: Artemis Rain
Fandom: Original
Prompt: Nurture
Warnings: None
Rating: PG
Word Count: Around 1200

Summary: Life is not sunshine and roses for Colby Dow.

A/N: This is an excerpt from chapter 10 of my NaNoWriMo novel entitled, “Perception/Distraction/Self/Other (or, Aliens Made Me Gay)”. Previous chapters are unavailable. This is the chapter in which the title begins to make sense. Colby has recently begun noticing certain feelings he has for his best friend, and blames these feelings on the abduction he believes he endured at the hands of aliens two nights ago. He also believes a phantom is following him, intent on destroying him, and that the red dust sold to him by a “wizard” can protect him from the things that are stalking him. Sadly, it can’t protect him from what’s left of his family.

This snippet is available only on my journal and only to friends. If you would like to read it, just friend me. I’ll give you access; no problem. Also, this was written in a huge rush and is almost completely unedited. Please forgive my clunky, awkward prose.

Warnings: Some mild language
Rating: Teen
Summary: It's a world where superheroes are no longer needed. A world where peace finally reigns supreme. For now. But change is on the wind. And that which is worth having is worth fighting for.
Disclaimer: This is a small section set inside a bigger work. I hope it stands on its own well enough to suffice as a story for this prompt. The concept of Absent Heroes is copyrighted and belongs to a select few.
A/N: I'm one of those crazy people trying to make NaNo and TTM prompts fit into the same piece of literature. Apologies if this doesn't stand on its own well enough to be independent.

The Proposition

Author: Lilithangel

Website: www.livejournal.com/users/lilithbint

Fandom: Torchwood

Characters: Jack/Owen

Genre: harlequin romance

Rating/Warnings: for a Mature audience contains m/m sexual situations and bad language (it is Owen after all).

Summary: I just finished this for the [livejournal.com profile] tw_harlequin challenge but it fits the nurture prompt as well.

Jack’s back things are as back to normal as Torchwood can get. Jack is run down and tired from the year that never was and when Owen does something else to drive him crazy Jack decides he needs a break and Owen should be the one to ensure it happens. Jack expected to be amused by how Owen dealt with it he didn’t expect to be bored.

Owen had coped surprisingly well with Jack’s disappearance and assuming the mantle of leadership. When Jack orders him to organise a week’s break making him responsible for everything he decides it is time to prove to Jack that he is capable. He just didn’t expect Jack to decide that seducing him was the best way to relax.

Cassidy Karen Myles was wandering around the house that she would be living in for at least a while. She didn't really understand what she was doing here, since she had been doing all right on her own. Then she bites the wrong person and this guy shows up and is all; Your coming home with me.

Yeah, like that's never freaky. And she told him; No, way. I don't know you. And he went on about how she had fed on one of his employees, a vampire one at that and so either she could take his offer of help or be thrown to the hunters. She had no idea what he was talking about hunters and stuff, but if help meant a nice roof over her head why the hell not.
