one moment there was road beneath us (prompts post)

[harborshore]

I wrote today's essay for 14 Valentines on LGBTQ women. Brief TW for a mention of corrective rape (absolutely no description of it) and internalized homophobia.

And on that topic, it's my least favorite holiday tomorrow, but it's Galentine's Day today, and if you want to leave me prompts, I could try writing some ficlets. Because I'd like to show you some love, okay?

Fandoms I can currently write: XMFC, BTVS, DCU (pre-reboot, because I don't know what's going on atm), most things Tamora Pierce has written (or I could post a snippet from the Alex/Thom I'm working on), any book-related fandom you've ever heard me talk about or seen me write in, Leverage, potentially something else I've written in before (but not bandom).

Buffy and (or /) Faith, a quiet moment.

i don't know how quiet they are, but.

Buffy can't sleep. She leaves Spike behind and goes upstairs again, heading for the kitchen. Faith is already there, leaning against the counter, cup of coffee in her hand.

"Shouldn't you be sleeping, B? Big day tomorrow." Faith's eyes are tired.

"Pot, kettle," Buffy says. "Any more where that came from?"

Faith nods, gesturing at the coffee maker.

"Finally learned to make more than one cup at a time, huh?" Buffy smiles when she says it, because making fun of Faith being alone for so long isn't really what she wants to do right now.

But Faith seems to get it, because she grins a little. "It doesn't matter what you do in this house, there's never any coffee unless you make it in the middle of the night."

"I see, so this was your secret plan, then. Trading sleep for caffeine to fight the First."

"You got me," Faith says, bumping Buffy's elbow.

"For once," Buffy says, nudging Faith right back.

"Better late than never," Faith says. "Wanna stay here and watch the sunrise with me?"

"Yeah," Buffy says. "We can go over the--yeah." It might be the last one, after all. Someone should see it.
