Prompt me!

Okay, so--things are rough at the moment, and time is crunched, but I need to have some stress relief, and sometimes that means writing. ;)
So--no promises about when things might be written, but give me some prompts. I'm especially looking for non-specific prompts. They don't even need to be fandom or character-specific. (This might even work best. For example, Katt gave the prompt "Bora Bora" a while ago, and
zoe_chan and I are totally making that a fic.)
Also, stealing a page from
merfilly's book--the 5 things meme! (I loves it.)
You post a topic, list, category, whatever, in my comments section. (examples: "5 times Cissie surprised Tim," "5 times Tim skipped patrol," or "5 times Tim had to cover for Bart and Kon.") Then, in a separate post, I'll post the answers to your Top 5 ideas, according to me. Serious or fun!
Saying again that it might be a while before things are posted, but I'd love to play with them.
My previous 5 Things lists are here, tagged. (Also, my primary fandom these days is DC, but if that's not your cup of tea and you have another request, go ahead.)
ETA: I'm having some serious back pain. *Ow.* :(

Date: 2008-04-15 04:19 am (UTC)Five times Cissie wished she had never been in Young Justice:
1.) Immediately after she quit, she watched the press conference and all the problems her actions had caused her friends, and wished she had never been a hero at all.
2.) When Cissie found out that Young Justice had been disbanded, she thought that if she had never been a member, it would hurt less.
3.) Cissie wasn't jealous when the Titans first started up—she thought it was good for Tim, Kon, Bart and Cassie to spend that time together. But then—even with Cassie living with her, she began feeling disconnected to them. She spoke with Tim, and lived with Cassie, but only occasionally got visits from the others. And then Speedy joined… Cissie got jealous.
4.) Kon died, Bart grew up and retreated from everyone, Cassie went a little insane and angry, and Tim left. It was not a summer she likes remembering.
5.) No one called her when Bart died. She found out from the girls in her dorm, who were watching the news when she came back from practice. For a while, Cissie thought that if she'd never been in Young Justice, she wouldn't keep losing her friends—and then she just got angry that no one remembered that she had been in it.
Five times Cissie almost told Tim she loved him (before she actually did):
1.) After the Crisis, when Tim said goodbye before leaving with Bruce and Dick, Cissie considered telling him how she felt. She didn't, partly because she wasn't entirely sure of her feelings yet, and partly because the timing was atrocious.
2.) While Tim was away on his trip around the world, Cissie wrote three letters. She might not have sent them even if she had an address to send them to, but she was glad of the excuse to hide them away in the shoebox under the bed where she kept the postcards he sent her.
3.) When Tim called her and told her he was back in Gotham, she suggested they meet—said that she had missed him, and couldn't wait to see him; she very nearly said that there was something she wanted to tell him. It was just obvious that Tim was preoccupied and stressed over what was happening with Batgirl and—the timing, as usual, wasn't right.
4.) Cissie had kind of told herself that even though she was in love with Tim, she wasn't going to say anything—because Tim wasn't ready. Even after a year, he didn't seem ready to date again… And then he mentioned his tutor. Cissie didn't think much of it—until Tim told her about his date with Zoanne. What she said was "have fun." What she wanted to say was "don't date her—date me."
5.) The first time Cissie talked with Tim after Bart died (before the funeral), she said "I love you." Tim took it the same way he always did, but that wasn't what Cissie meant.

Date: 2008-04-15 04:19 am (UTC)Five times Cissie wished that Tim would quit being Robin/Kestrel:
1.) Every time Tim is seriously injured on the job, she wishes it—but there are some times that are worse than others. The first time Tim was seriously injured after they started dating, Dick brought her to Gotham and while she sat with Tim, she entertained the idea.
2.) Every time Cissie wakes up in the morning to an empty bed, or the phone rings in the middle of the night, she wishes Tim would stop. She knows he won't, and she'll never ask him to, but she could do without all the worrying. (She will never tell Tim this, however, because he's so ridiculously stubborn about not wanting her to worry about him.)
3.) After Tim didn't die, she had a very difficult time letting him go back out. Even though he wasn't injured and nothing had happened, she didn't sleep until he was home again for the entire first two weeks. It was a good thing Bart came to distract her the first night Tim hit the streets again, as she was a basket case.
4.) When Sadie said she wanted to be Robin and she and Tim began their cold war, Cissie wished that neither of them would do it.
5.) Cissie was pregnant with Aiden, Sadie had the flu and Tim was injured. Bruce called her in the middle of the night to tell her he was keeping Tim at the Manor to monitor his concussion, and when she hung up the phone, Cissie sat awake the rest of the night. It was the first time she realized that every time Tim went out, she was a phone call away from becoming a single mother.
Your turn now? ;)
