I've just seen this meme, and I'll throw it out there and see if anyone bites.

Comment to this post with an offer to write in any fandom that you and I have in common. I will answer with a prompt. Then, you will write me comment-fic, snippets, or whatever comes to mind. Now go post this in your own journal and demand fic of your very own! Make your flist work! You had a long week and you DESERVE it, dammit!

*And none of this BS from non-writers or newbies about having nothing to offer. Repeat to yourselves: I am a good person. I deserve the fiction of my choice. Gosh darn it, people like me. I shall reap the benefits of fandom.

One of my favourite things is to have fic written for me. I don't care if it's a drabble, or you think you can't write. I say, of course you can! Entertain me! I'll love you for it. I'll even be nice and not ask everyone for Kevin/Chris.

I want to say thank you to both daisydust for the paid time for the newsletter, and geeklite for the add on user pictures. You're both incredibly awesome. *mwah*

James has been off all week. He's still not feeling well and has to go to hospital on Monday for a scan if he's not feeling better by then. Hopefully he is, there's only so much brow rubbing I can do ;)

In great news, I have over 1000 words of my sparklyglee story! I won't be a failure who flakes for her own challenge. Which man, is a relief.

That's it for my oh so exciting life. Unless you want to know I have fresh pineapple. 2 for £1. If only it came ready skinned. And yes, I know you can get it tinned. That's not the same.

A River in Egypt, 2/2

"I thought you traitors were shopping," Jesse said, feeling distinctly cornered.

"And miss the fallout?" Shal asked. "Never." She jumped down to the lower floor, and kissed Jesse on the cheek. "You're so cute when you're flustered."

"I am not cute!"

"You're kind of cute," Emma nodded, walking down the stairs. "We could go check the video, and show you - "

"_If_ you could get into it, which you can't, because the computer system is all messed up, thanks to the three of you," Jesse said, smugly.

"Oh, that?" Shalimar asked. "No, I put a password on it after Brennan was done setting up the screensaver."

"You did that?" Brennan asked. "Nice."

"I hate all of you," Jesse pouted.

"No, you don't," Emma said, squeezing his shoulder. "And we love you, too."

"Prove it, and fix my computer."

"We will," Shalimar said. "It'll be all nice and fixed for you just as soon as you get back."

"Get back?" Jesse frowned.

"Yes," Emma said, handing over Jesse's leather jacket. "From your date with Brennan."

"I am not going on a date with Brennan!"

"Then I guess we're all going to be seeing a lot more of Paolo's, um, assets," Shalimar said, folding her arms. "Frankly, I've seen better."

"But he is enthusiastic about his work," Brennan pointed out.

"True."

"I kind of like Ethan better," Emma said. "Especially when he does that thing with his - "

"Fine, fine, I'll go," Jesse said, putting on his jacket. "You promise to fix my computer?"

"Promise," Shalimar said, pinky-swearing.

"Okay," Jesse sighed.

"You don't have to make it seem like going out with me is some kind of death sentence, you know," Brennan laughed. "Keep acting like that, and I'm going to start taking it personally."

"You know I'm ordering the most expensive thing on the menu, right? _And_ I want the extra-large bucket of popcorn with butter. _Real_ butter, not that fake topping crap."

"I have seen you eat before, Jess," Brennan said, following him out.

"That worked well," Emma said, when they'd gone.

"I told you it would," Shalimar smiled. "After all, I have known him the longest. And it's not like I had to twist Brennan's arm to go along with it, either. Now how about we have dinner, too? I feel like sushi and a chick flick."

Emma grinned. "Resident Evil?"

"Of course. I'll order, you fire up the movie."

"Oh, Shal?" Emma asked. "What was the password you put on Jesse's computer, anyway?"

"That was easy," Shalimar shrugged. "'Denial.'"

Thank you!

Reading good Brennan/Jesse is such a treat and you just nail them.

What I always liked about the show was the fact they were obviously friends, and showed that with banter and messing around. Sure, the serious stuff was there, but at the core was friendship.

I could easily see them ganging up on Jesse to do that, and Brennan reading, one of my favourite things. Especially when he's swearing on the Kama Sutra. Hopefully he'll put some of what he's learned into practice with Jesse later. Relax him even more.

I enjoyed every word.

I'm glad. Would it be all right if I posted this in my fic lj?
