Prima Donnas: HL, BtVS

Title: Prima Donnas
Prompt: "Celebrities are able to make demands in their contracts for certain things to be in their dressing rooms. What are your top five demands, and why?"
Warning: lack of serious


Five Highlander:


Kronos demands a slavegirl - they call them "fluffer" these days - and pizza, and a well-decorated throne. He also wants recent issues of medical journals, and a box of matches.

Methos requires beer, and some way to play music - blues and classic rock CDs work fine. A comfortable sofa that fits the highest demands in the field, a high-tech security system, and a good pair of running shoes.

Caspian wants raw snails, throwing knives and "a practice target". He gets disappointed when he's brought a board rather than a person, and his disappointment often leads to him using the bearer of the board as practice target. He also likes to have a full-sized mirror and hair-styling products.

Silas normally wants the room sound-proofed. Rodent-feed and fresh sawdust for his pets, a slavegirl for his penis, and slimfast choco shake.

Duncan wants good wine, a good woman, classical music and a large bed covered in satin. If pressed, his fifth demand would be a hairbrush.


Five Buffy-Angel:


Black candles, red sheets, white cake. A good lighter, and the room must have a sink with running water. Ethan doesn't need much to create much.

An extensive library and a "Do Not Disturb" sign are important to Giles. Other than that, a nice scotch, a pot of tea, and something sweet to eat.

A pack of blood and a pack of smokes, a book of romantic poems, paper and a pen - or feather, indeed. Spike looks tough on the outside, but he doesn't forget his roots.

Lorne wants herbal tea for his voice, massage for his feet, orange juice, sandwiches, and to be left alone before a performance. Secretly, he wants a star on the door.

Lilah lists her demands; a phone, a computer, a desk, a protective circle, and oh, a scarf to hide the wound across her throat.

Art, some fannish, some not

Thing is, I make so much of it that I rarely feel like picking samples and posting them.

Twist And Shout; Giles/Ethan pwp

Title: Twist And Shout
Fandom: Buffy
Pairing: Giles/Ethan
Why: because there was chat and waxing lyrical and...
Note: For Cat who likes the G/E smut.



Ripper, darling, wonderful Ripper, with his backhand that cracks Ethan's lip and sends him to the floor, to his knees... Taste of blood under his tongue. Cement floor under his palms and he shivers, he keeps his eyes down. Ripper, with his vicious eyes and the whip in his hand.

It's not punishment, it's not anger, although it feels like it, looks like it. It's magic, it's intensity, it's something Ethan's willing to take because of where it takes him. Ripper with his bright, strange eyes, with the strange words in an obscure, dead language that pour from his lips like molten gold and spider webs. Ripper who bends closer and his fingers are so gentle on Ethan's throat until he can barely breath, and he flushes dark pink and doesn't fight back. Black around the edges of his eyes...

His throat is free again and his vision is still blurry when Ripper pulls him up by his hair and now he struggles, because being submissive and on his knees was better than this, better than facing the cold, and better than...

But it's Ripper, his Ripper, whip in hand and the cold dissipates like it was never there, and the smile is warm and confusing.

"You're twisted," Ripper says, warmth and fondness and desire, and a secret-revealing tone, "but then, so am I." And the whip cracks on cement floor and the kiss still is layered with blood.
