Let's do this thing!







THE THREESentenceFIC-A-THON


In this challenge, you write a fic consisting of only three sentences in response to a prompt. All fandoms/characters/ships are welcome, and you can leave as many prompts and write as many fic as you like. Please leave only one prompt per comment, though there can be multiple fic "answers" to each prompt.

Format:

Fandom, character/pairing, prompt word/sentence

Please go here for more in-depth instructions, examples, and to ask any questions or voice any concerns you may have.

Pimp far and wide, please! The more participants, the more fic! And if someone wants to whip up a banner or something, that would be great!

Go forth and fic!

Skins, Tony/Michelle, if I give up on you, I give up on me

I promised, didn't I? I hope it was worth waiting for.

Sometimes, during one of their late-night phone calls, Michelle will talk a little too much about how she misses Tony (there are oceans and continents out there, lightyears of empty space, and Britain's such a small island, but sometimes the distance between Cardiff and York seems like the greatest in the universe), and Jal will explode with, "Why, 'Chelle? After everything--why do you keep holding onto him?"

Jal's her best friend, but Michelle will never be able to explain it to her, not when what she had with Chris was so pure (Michelle would never really have thought of anything associated with Chris being pure, but she's found with the power of hindsight, that he was about as pure of a soul as they come), and she's given up on trying.

Because she'll never be able to verbalize that way that Tony has of pulling you in (like a spider at the center of a web, like a black hole sucking in anything that comes near), of dragging you along with him until you can no longer see the lines where he begins and you end (Sid is probably the only one who will ever be able to understand--just like Effy's the only one who's ever been able to love him without losing herself--and sometimes Michelle thinks that it's that understanding that made them cling to each other in all the wrong ways when they thought they'd lost Cassie and Tony himself for good), and she can't tell whether it's right or wrong anymore: all she knows that it is what it is, and she could no sooner give up on Tony than she could on herself.

and I spam you with a late review

As much as I love Jal and Michelle’s friendship(and you for including it!), you’re right—Tony is one part of Michelle that’s foreign territory to Jal.

OH CHRIS. <3 I don’t think anyone started out the show expecting his story/character to unfold so beautifully

like Effy's the only one who's ever been able to love him without losing herself
I know you don’t want to be spoiled for S3 so I’m only going to say WORD to this and that I believe this more than ever. I get Effy so, so much more when we’re seeing her through Tony-eyes.

Because she'll never be able to verbalize that way that Tony has of pulling you in
This is kind of perfect. Those two couldn’t ever *explain* why they were drawn together. They could only say we work and we’re good together; they had broken watches and ringing cellphones… and somehow, to them, that was everything they needed <3 *loves them hard*


of dragging you along with him until you can no longer see the lines where he begins
Kinda what he did for the entirety of his screentime, eh?

all she knows that it is what it is, and she could no sooner give up on Tony than she could on herself.
Yeah, that’s how I see them- “screw it, let’s not define it anymore, we are who we are, we’re us”.

This is me saying ‘write Tony/Michelle and/or Skinsfic MOAR’ :D
