Rules & stuff
❶ This is a general meme, so any characters, pairings, and themes are acceptable, as long as it centers around Dark Angel and follows the rules of the comm.
❷ Comment to this post with your prompt(s), but stick to one prompt per comment, please. There's no limit on prompts per person, though, so if you have a bunch, just comment with each one separately.
❸ If your prompt contains triggery material, please warn for it in the subject line. And, while this fandom hasn't been in danger of spoilers for quite some time, if you're prompting a crossover and the other show you're crossing with is currently running, please take that into consideration and use spoiler warnings for recently aired eps.
❹ To fill prompts, just reply to the appropriate comment with the fic. You're free to write the whole thing out in comments, or reply with a link back to your journal. You're also welcome to post fills directly to the comm.
❺ When filling a prompt, please put FILLED and the title of your fic in the subject line, along with any warnings.
❻ There's no claiming, so more than one fill per prompt is definitely allowed.
❼ Anyone is welcome to leave or fill a prompt. You don't have to be a member of the comm to play in the comments section, and anonymous comments are enabled. However, you do have to be a member to post a fic directly to the community.
❽ I'll keep this post open to prompting for a couple of weeks or so. If, by some miracle, it gets super active, then I'll keep it open until interest dies down. Either way, it will remain open to FILLS indefinitely.
❾ If you'd like to be awesome and pimp this meme, just copy the code below and paste it into your journal/comm. :)
❿ Play nice and have fun.

notsodamaged -- GFOR THE PROMPT: Alec and Ben. Doing stuff. I don't care what it is. Just ALEC & BEN or Alec/Ben. Um. Maybe they're working out some issues or something, what with Alec having suffered the consequences of Ben's actions so many times? Whatever, anything with the two of them interacting will make me super happy.
Sight and Sound by
alocine_89 -- NRFOR THE PROMPT: Prior to meeting Max, what Joshua's typical day consisted of caring for the other anomalies without drawing attention to himself.
Forgiveness by
tattooeddevil -- RFOR THE PROMPT: Alec/Logan, argument or making up: a conflict, especially about something serious - Logan is angry about Alec putting himself in danger or vice versa, disagreeing about how best to fight for transgen rights, one's not sure the other is over Max, whatever. would be happy with making up of any kind - tenuous and temporary treaty or make-up sex smut or clearing up a misunderstanding or whatever you want. (feel free to just mention what the fight was and just do making up if that's what you like)
Mini For A Day by
mandraco -- PG-13FOR THE PROMPT: Alec is physically de-aged via mad science, or what-have-you. He still has all his memories and his grown-up personality; he's just a lot smaller and more adorable than he's used to. Mole is super-protective, Joshua won't stop carrying him around like luggage, and Logan keeps giving him weird looks and lots of candy. It's humiliating. Except maybe it's not so bad that Max is helplessly enamored with his cute little faaaace, and likes to spoil him. Gen for this one, please.
Stealing a Kiss by
denyce -- PGFOR THE PROMPT: Logan decides to just go for it and kiss Max, fuck the consequences. He'll die for Max anyway, so why not like this? Only, after he kisses her, nothing happens. He doesn't get sick, doesn't die.
No Control of What You Let Go by
dollarformyname -- eventual NC-17 -- WIPFOR THE PROMPT: What would happen if Alec and Logan were to suddenly find themselves in each other's bodies?
Fills are allowed indefinitely, however. Thanks to everyone for playing!

Prompt: Joshua a day in the life

Date: 2012-01-18 07:58 pm (UTC)When Joshua thinks back on his time in Manticore, his first and most complete memory is always the noise. When he was young, it was the noises of his brother and his father, Isaac's giggling turning to distraught wails over the years, before stopping completely one violent day. As he grew, more voices joined, new inflections and tones, new footsteps to learn and recognise. The soldiers are loud, for despite the fact that they are trained to operate in silent, ruthless efficiency they are but children, and it takes time for even the bleakness of Manticore to subdue their instinctive noise-making
Joshua listens through walls and grates, deciphering conversations that echo and fade into nothingness. The noise often seems to blend into one continuous beat of stepstepstepstep, bootprints marking time in the dust, and Joshua feels as though the beat will never stop, grinding into his skull until he scratches at his scalp, curled up into a ball in the damp underbelly of the Manticore beast.
It is the anomalies that save him. They scream and shout and moan with unrelenting passion - angry, afraid, and so alive, so real that they break through his whimpers, through the hands pressed to his ears, through the never ending beat of the soldiers, and they make him stand. The anomalies call to him, beg for his help, and in doing so, they give him a reason to survive, to remain strong and sane and caring, until the time comes when he can leave.
And so he saves them in return. He sneaks through passages unused and forgotten, listens again to the rise and fall of voices, and learns how to use his canine DNA to his advantage - sniffing out unattended food, water, even medical supplies on occasion, and he passes it through the bars to desperate, greedy hands. He finds that his strength is greater than a human, possibly even more than the new breed of soldiers Manticore is so proud of - the pretty, tiny X-5's, who embody all that the scientists hope for and yet are still so flawed. He fights, when he has to, when the guards and soldiers alike forget who he is - that he was first, that he is special, and that father cares for him, even from afar.
And then he meets his little fellow, and for a while the world is more than just noise, for a while it is colour and movement and he is a part of it, not merely in the shadows. But the world isn't like that, not for Joshua, and he is again relegated to the darkness, to an old and abandoned home, to living life through holes in a wall, and infrequent visits. And now the world is quieter than it has ever been, and Joshua feels the beat of the footsteps returning. But this time, it is not noise that saves him, it is colour. Yellows and blues and the feeling of being alive as he transforms blank white into explosions of joyous colour. Joshua's life is separated into two parts - sound and sight, and one day, he knows he will find a balance.
