TAKING REQUESTS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY DRABBLES YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Give me an OTP and a detailed prompt, and I will give you a 100-300 word fic in response!   I have been particularly itching to do crack fic lately - like, off-the-wall non-canon ships (like Samuel and Jay making out in the elevator).  Or canon ships in really cracky AUs (Devo and Galen in Pokemon AU).  OR PLAIN STUFF IF YOU WANNA BE VANILLA.   I want to smash through them tomorrow (day off FINALLY), but I will have them done by the end of the week.   Put multiple requests if you want, and I'll pick my favorite.

I also have my schmoop bingo board to get through, so you can use that as reference!  It's here.

Gearing back into action, posting like a beast soon!

They had sneaked onto the beach by the cover of darkness, found a cluster of boulders to sit in the shadow of, hidden even after a park ranger combed the shore for trespassers. Huddled together like lovers as the waves lapped against pebbly shore. As trucks and nighttime car traffic rumbled on California One behind them.

"We tried walking too much today, I'm thinking." Jack reached around and put his hand against Jay's forehead. She lulled her head back, and saw a strange look of thoughtfulness crossed his features. "Especially in that sun. We shouldn't have tried walking from Pacifica. Your temp is-"

"We'll make it to the Hills tomorrow." She leaned back forward, arms crossed, and tugged her collar higher over her neck. They underestimated the chill of the shore at night, even during the summer. "Don't think I won't. You're not allowed to leave me behind."

"Jay." He didn't push the fever thing, or force her to lay down. His hand rest on her shoulder instead, a solid reminder of him. "I never said that."

"Cause we're going to get there together, right Jack. We'll hit LA, and we'll be big." She shifted her knees, tried to get her feet under the warmth of her thighs. Her head felt hot, but the rest of her froze. "That was the plan. Don't forget it, please."

His posture, voice went stiff and stern. He pulled her closer against his chest. "You're whack. I'm not leaving my sister behind."

She looked at his hand as it rest on her shoulder. He spoke like that, but his skin was so pale, so white. She couldn't think of the argument she wanted to make, not with her head so hot like this, so reached up with her hand, brushed her dark fingers past his. Jack didn't miss what she meant by the gesture.

"Blood means nothing," Jack said. That was something he knew, both of them knew very well, and shouldn't have needed saying again. "I say you're my sister, Jay, and if we're joined by the soul, it's even stronger."

She stared into the plaid of his shirt. "My soul brother..." It didn't feel so weird to say it.

She laughed, gently, the sound echoing against the cliffs. "The shit you say sounds so corndog, Jackrabbit."

"Jackrabbit?" He shook her shoulder playfully. "Is that how you address your big brother?"

"Furry little Jackrabbit." A smile pulled on her lips. She finally felt warm, she realized. "It sounds good on you."

"I'm Jackrabbit then. The ladies call me Thumper."

"The ladies in LA will know better than that." She turned her face into his chest. "Maybe."

"You keep talking like that." His hand settled in her hair again. "Cheep yourself to sleep, Jaybird."

....OMG AWWWWWWWWWWWW <3333 I love this SO HARD. <33333 Jack is perfect -- he really does love Jay like a sister. She and Shae are more "family" to him than his blood relations are, really. (And don't think I'm not looking forward to those two meeting and swapping notes on their favourite Jackrabbit, because I AM. XDD) THANK YOU SO MUCH <333

This is one hell of a charming and wonderful snapshot in a friendship that probably baffles so many other people who don't realize the depths and lengths to which these two have gone together. They've built their friendship upwards until they really are more like family.
