ways_back_room | DE: It's fic Friday, on a THURSDAY. Madness!

Good morning, Milliways! Welcome to today's DE.

Bat is taking over for the day and I'm hopped up on Go-Gurt and coffee (not mixed together, because that'd be weird and gross. Or... greatest thing ever. You decide by trying it and then let me know... )!

I know it's not Friday, but I'm gonna be gone Friday and I feel we haven't done this one in awhile so let's do this:

ICON FIC PROMPTS!!!

Many people know Bat has a terrible icon obsession, but we also know I'm not the only one so here's how it goes:

1. Tag in with the pups you want prompts for (linking their journals for his one is probably helpful because for Step 2...

2. Receive tags from others with one of your pup's icons and a prompt (word, line, song lyric, etc.)

3. Fic it! Whatever style/length of writing you want to compose

4. Repeat with others!

As a help, because I know I always have to look it up every time I need to use it, here is the html for inserting an image:

[img src="image link address here"]
(of course replace the brackets with the pointy carrot things <>)

Or, just insert a link text to the image if that's easier.

I think that's it. Have fun!

Barry: Please, please tell me now

Matt: Coffee

"Dude, are you sure this is the right place?" Barry asks, eying the scene in front of them.

It's Saturday night, and Barry and Cisco have decided to try a new place on a night out.

Cisco had said 'new bar', but this is definitely a club, with an 80's throwback theme even.

"Yeah, yeah, this is the spot," Cisco assures Barry, leading the way further into the crowded scene. He stops when he hears the Ollie and Jerry playing and sees a crowd gathered on the dance floor.

"Ooo, break dance-off," Cisco says with great interest.

Barry starts to speak up, but Cisco shoves his way to the front of the crowd and steps onto the floor.

"Alright, back up, back up, y'all. It's time to get funky." Cisco waves people back to clear some space, all bravado and confidence.

What happens next is a display in the fantastic...ally bad. And weird. More weird than bad.

Cisco flops on the dance floor and spins around like a manic fish. There are moves and spins and dizzying turns with a few hand plants and kicks thrown in.

When he's finished, Cisco jumps up, hands in the air triumphantly to the applause of one.

Clapping still, Barry glances around and then shrugs at Cisco, "They're gone, dude. But I thought it was entertaining."

Cisco's enthusiasm sags and he frowns.

Stepping forward, Barry offers, "Wanna grab a beer at Ceili's?"

With a sigh Cisco nods, "Yeah, let's go."

Barry throws an arm around Cisco's shoulders and says, "These guys couldn't handle your style, anyways."

Cisco gives Barry a smile and then turns around as they reach the door, pointing at the crowd they're leaving behind.

"That's Right. Ain't none of you can handle these moves." Popping his collar, Cisco pivots on his heel and heads out.

"Yeah!" Barry says for emphasis before the attitude drops into super awkwardness and he hurries after his friend.

: burden of proof

I'll run with...
Ahsoka
Jessica Drew
and new apped but not approved pup, Alustin Haber

Likely slow for the morning as I have a bunch of writing/creating type projects at work.

"Why is this my life?"

Whoops

Her ship landed, she walked out to the next steps on her path. Luke would do fine in resurrecting the Jedi, and though he begged her to stay, she knew her path lay elsewhere. She truly was not a jedi and for many reasons, could never be one.

Her companion stood before a mural, vivid colors depicting one of the earliest rebel cells, her family. Ahsoka had met each of them and valued them all, even the one who fell though she'd only met him a few times. Her eyes followed the forms, Kannan, Hera, Sabine, Zeb, Chopper, and Ezra. She stopped and focused on the boy, the focus of her next quest, and smiled.

Sabine turned then and joined her as they turned back to her ship and flew off into the sunset of Lothal.

What wonderful imagery and feelings. Very nice!

"What the hell is wrong with you?!?" Gwen screamed at Cindy, who'd misjudged a landing and ended up nearly shoving Gwen off the ledge. It didn't help that Cindy had disappeared and left them alone to fight the hobgoblin's men on their own.

"Wow. Learn some chill." Cindy's response was not helpful and Gwen shoved her back.

"Where the hell were you?" Cindy shoved back in return and then the girls started slapping at each other.

Jess just sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "If the two of you are done being 3 years old, we still have a kidnapped reporter to find?"

BWAH! I'm sorry Jess, I don't mean to laugh, but I am definitely laughing.

When she gets to deal with this mess in Milliways her and Logan can have beers and commiserate. XD

Great fic, thank you for writing!

Honestly, I seriously want a Web of the Spider-Woman book where she mentors all the spider-girls (Cindy, Gwen, and Anya Corazon). Later other teen girl superheroes can guest star.

Alustin ducked into what he hoped was a closet to avoid the pair of guards who were just about to turn the corner into the hall he had just been in. The door across the way was proving quite difficult to pick and he'd run out of time. If fortune favored him though, he'd get another chance once the guards turned the next corner at the end of the hallway.

The splash of water behind him froze him in his tracks and he wanted to smack himself for not thinking to 'look' into the room he ducked into before doing so. Putting on a disarming and goofy smile, he turned and bowed, covering his eyes for politeness's sake in the brief glimpse of bare flesh. "I am terribly sorry. I have the wrong room it seems."

"Nonsense," the woman bathing replied with a wicked grin. "I need my back washed."
