Prompt Snippets Roundup

[rsadelle]

I wrote 14 prompt snippets for a total of over 27,000 words, so it took a little longer than anticipated. Many thanks to everyone who left a prompt. I had a good time writing these, and today I dived right back into my longer projects and was excited about them, so I consider this a success. Here's the roundup of what I wrote:

Let Your Skin Talk To My Soul (AO3, LJ) for asimplechord. Hockey, Alex Galchenyuk/Maripier Morin/Brandon Prust, Teen, 1500 words: "Careful," Maripier says. "You're going to leave beard burn."

Midsummer Beginning (AO3, LJ) for cametosmash. Hockey, Tyler Brown/Tyler Seguin, Teen, 1900 words: The guy who rushed through the door has a pair of dogs with him, one on a leash and the other cradled in his arms. They're not small dogs, but the guy doesn't even seem to notice the effort of hanging on to both of them. Not that he would with those arm muscles.

That's What Friends Are For (AO3, LJ) for dine. Hockey, Lindsey MacDonald/Mike Richards, Megan Carter/Jeff Carter, Tanner Pearson/Original Male Character, Teen, 2000 words: Mike doesn't answer his question until they've turned back and are almost to the place where they have to leave the path to walk up to the house.

Change of Plan (AO3, LJ) for ilovealistair. Hockey, Sidney Crosby/Alexander Ovechkin, Teen, 2900 words: Zhenya narrows his eyes at Alex, but then he sighs and takes out his phone. He switches to English and tells Crosby, "Have friend for Thanksgiving, but friend burn turkey."

Roped (AO3, LJ) for soul_cake_duck. Hockey, Carey Price/P.K. Subban, Explicit, 1900 words: Usually it's a game, P.K. trying to get up the driveway without getting caught and Carey staying hidden enough to try to surprise him. But not this time.
