Short Affair PROMPTS for February 11th

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

These prompts are for stories due during the week of Valentine's Day. If you fancy injecting a little romance into you tale, then go for it.

You'll find the prompts for February 11th down below the cut. For stories due today, simply follow this link.

Don't forget, you can now chose to use one of the prompt words, or to use both in your story (not forgetting the colour element), remembering to state which combination of prompts you are using.

Remember, Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in mfu_map_room.

Posting directly to Section VII is still fine but, if you wish, you can post your story elsewhere and provide a link. Please say where the link leads as a lot of people are unwilling to go to certain sites. Don't forget, Section VII and the Map Room are both available on Dreamwidth, for those of you who can figure it out (Just let us know if you posted there).

Have fun.

"Things that go bump" by Glennagirl for the Short Affair Challenge

Posting this for Glenna who's still having computer issues:

Prompts: purple, damp

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The purple mass on Napoleon's face was beginning to resemble an eggplant. A relatively small eggplant, but something out of the garden just the same.

"Darling, you're a mess. What on earth caused that, um… bruise?"

Napoleon flinched at the word bruise. April was being kind, avoiding an accurate description of what his partner had done to him.

"If it makes you feel any better, Illya has two black eyes that make him look like a cat burglar.  What happened to you two?" Mark Slate was holding back a grin, his two superiors seemed to have gotten into a brawl with something ominous.

Napoleon sighed, his date with Veronica would have to be cancelled. If only he had ducked.

"We walked into that cellar, it was damp and dark… we just never saw the big gorilla in the corner."  April raised on eyebrow, casting a glance at her partner.

"By gorilla you mean a big ugly THRUSH?" They were all used to those brutes.

"No, I mean a gorilla. There was a gorilla in there, and he didn't want any company. Illya took the first hit when the big ape slung him across the room.  Unfortunately, he passed by me with his special in his hand and that's, um… well…"

"He pistol whipped you?" That made both of the junior agents cackle out loud.  A stern expression on Solo's face quieted their laughter, but it was going to be difficult to lose that image.

"How is Illya, by the way?" Napoleon knew it wasn't the Russian's fault that he'd smacked his partner in the face with the gun.  But it hurt like hell and had definitely left a mark.

April was always concerned about Illya, and this time was no exception.  The collision with something very hard had left him with a broken rib in addition to the black eyes.  She hadn't quite figured out the two injuries, but then in this business nothing was constructed of pure logic.

"He's in a bit of pain, ribs you know…' Napoleon made a face as he thought back to how many times it had been his own rib cage in bandages.

"But, all things considered I guess you two got off pretty easy.  I mean, a gorilla." Mark was still trying to suppress a big guffaw, aware that he might be sorry if he didn't.  Napoleon shook his head at the memory of the creature he and Illya had encountered.

"I hope to never even look at a gorilla again." April and Mark both nodded their heads in agreement.

After all, what were the chances?

Challenge: The Short Affair

-Prompt Word 1 - Damp

-Prompt Colour – Purple

Title: “Woodpussy”

Author: mrua7
Word count: Approx 600

It had rained overnight and there was a damp chill within the small hunting cabin.  The fire that had been lit in the hearth had long since gone out, though the two occupants were warm enough in their beds, tucked under thick blankets.

It was Kuryakin who raised his head, called from his sleep as he sniffed the air. He recognized that pungent odor but it wasn’t going to deter him from his well deserved rest.
