Short Affair PROMPTS for August 22nd

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

Summer is well and truly under way. The warm days are just perfect for writing (and reading) some wonderful fics. What could be better than a few bite-sized pieces?

That’s where the Short Affair comes in. Simply choose one of the words, add it to the colour prompt, and give us something of between 300 – 1000 words.

There is still plenty of time to contribute to today’s posts from last week’s prompts. If you want to join in, you’ll find those prompts right here.

Remember, Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in the Map Room. You’ll find the link for it down the side there.

Have fun.

An AU story of the future Kuryakin family.

“’For, standing within the narrow chamber of rock, was the form of a man—or, at least, it seemed like a man, in the dim light.’”

Alexander Waverly paused, then cleared his throat. The sound drew the attention of the little girl perched on the arm of his Adirondack chair. She pulled her mesmerized gaze from the dancing flames of the fire pit and reached over to turn the page.

UNCLE Medical was trying something new, a counsellor who gave periodic lectures to the Section II and III agents. His credentials stated he was a psychologist but he came across as anything but that.
