Prompts, please
Dec. 8th, 2011 08:02 pmI need to get my head out of my ass and write some fluffy drabble ficlets. (Someone just told me that drabble is supposed to be exactly 100 words, and all this time I just thought it meant "shortish fic without a plot.") Would anyone like to prompt? Must be Kurt/Blaine, Kurt or Blaine. Must be something that I can keep short since I have too much Real Work to do.
But I also feel compelled to say that I give no guarantees.
Because I'm kind of in a wishy-washy mood.
(Because aforementioned Real Work is not making me happy today.)
[Update: In order to force myself to keep these short, I am posting these as replies to the prompter in the comments section below. I am trying to keep these PG and PG-13, but if I get wild, I will post the rating at the top of the reply. If you think anything is improperly rated, please let me know. Also, FYI, I am doing these as freewriting exercises with no edits and spending less than an hour on each. Unless I am compelled to do research on, you know,ancient Hebrew love poems or something pretty much anything, or get distracted, or start to think too much, or get caught up in some scene and realize when an hour is up that I haven't even gotten to the prompt part yet. Then maybe I'll give myself a little slack.]
[Update 2: I plan to get to all of these eventually; feel free to continue prompting. I will close comments if it gets too much. I will try to get to them in the order of request, but if I get stuck on one I may move on to the next and go back later. This does not mean I have abandoned you! If there is something in a prompt that squicks me and I just can't do it, I'll let you know so you can prompt another. Oh, and keep in mind that I am writing these between other things, when I don't have a big enough block of time to work on larger projects or when I get stuck on the larger projects. Usually, when I have the blocks of time, the larger projects will take precedence.]
[Update 3 - Dec. 13: I posted an NC-17 drabble. All NC-17 and R drabbles are and will be appropriately labeled so you can easily skip them if you wish.]

Cat-tastic - Part 3
Date: 2011-12-14 05:43 am (UTC)Three days after Blaine's graduation, Kurt walks into the living room and announces, "Put on your shoes. It's time for your next graduation present."
Blaine looks up from CuteCats.com. "I have to put on shoes for a blowjob?"
Kurt rolls his eyes. "Fuck you, Blaine."
"Yes, please."
Kurt tries to shoot Blaine a disapproving look, but cracks into a smile instead. "Maybe later, dear. First, we have to go out."
Soon they are on their bikes, and for some reason Kurt has insisted on hitching the cargo trailer to his. Whatever this present is, it must be big.
Blaine follows Kurt through the traffic, and it's only a few minutes later before Kurt waves at Blaine to pull over and they lock up at a rack. Blaine's still not sure where they're going; there must be at least 20 stores and four restaurants on this block.
"Okay, close your eyes," Kurt says, taking Blaine's hand, and Blaine will never tire of this, being able to walk hand-in-hand with his boyfriend through this city. It's almost gift enough. Blaine puts his left hand in Kurt's right hand, and wraps his own right hand around Kurt's elbow to steady himself against the darkness of his closed lids. They walk for about a minute before Kurt steers them left across the sidewalk and Blaine hears a door open. They step through and Blaine hears –
"Oh my God, Kurt. Do I hear what I think I hear?"
"Open your eyes."
They are in the middle of what can only be described as hipster cat heaven. Danish-modern cat towers twice as tall as Blaine, bins of bright toys, and a whole shelf of catnip labeled by variety and potency.
But that's not the exciting part. It's the mewing Blaine hears.
A young woman with pink and platinum blonde hair and two rings through her bottom lip steps up to Blaine. "The local cat rescue is here today doing adoptions if you're looking to bring someone special into your life." She points toward the back of the store.
Blaine is still holding on to Kurt with both hands, squeezing so tight that Kurt wonders how long it will be before his circulation will be fully restored.
"Kurt. You're the best. boyfriend. ever."
There's another woman in the back. She's from the rescue society and she tells them they can look, but they should also tell her about what they're looking for and what their lifestyles are like so she can steer them toward the right one. Blaine does most of the talking and Kurt lets his eyes wander across the cages. There's this one black cat who blinks at him with big amber eyes, and then he realizes there is another one in the cage with it, with white mittens and nose, and it starts to lick the black one behind the ears and – oh, they really are kind of adorable.
"Blaine," Kurt says, interrupting the conversation with the adoption lady.
Blaine turns to him. "Yeah?"
"Can we get two?"

Date: 2011-12-14 06:12 am (UTC)It feels weird writing pure, unadulterated domestic fluff, so I had them say a couple raunchy-ish things to make myself more comfortable.
Haha! I approve of this decision.
I love that Kurt thinks Blaine is looking at porn, and Blaine is embarrassed because he's looking at cats. That is adorable.
"Put on your shoes. It's time for your next graduation present."
"I have to put on shoes for a blowjob?"
Kurt rolls his eyes. "Fuck you, Blaine."
LOL!
And the ending made me laugh too. This whole thing was so cute. :D :D You're the best!

Date: 2012-01-02 04:30 pm (UTC)Watch as Kurt gets smitten with the black cat, and Blaine feels a tiny tinge of envy. And that blowjob line was hilarious (I can't imagine anyone else mentioning blowjobs in a cat-themed fic, pffffft). And the domesticity was so very sweet. Ah, the fluff.
