WE HAVE SO MUCH SNOW RIGHT NOW. The wind's gusting, the roads are a mess -- basically, winter in Cleveland lol. If I went out, I'd be knee-deep in snow haha (which is def preferable to mud lol).
(AND AHAHAHAHA, I figure like 3 of the things I prompt will be ~holiday-related, and the rest will just be . . . completely un-related lol).
It wasn't snowing at all at my place, but 10 minutes north and it was the motherfucking snowpocalypse. LIKE TWO FUCKING FEET OF IT, THE WIND WAS SO LOUD IT WAS SPOOKING THE HORSES IN THE ARENA.
Snowed-in, Sherlock & Joan, Joan/Sherlock hinted but a really tame PG-13Joan woke to the sound of the snowplow in the street, the light beep of its machinery and the shouting voices of the men who manned the thing. She was used to being woken up before her alarm, it was rare she heard the buzz of it anymore, often Sherlock would be sitting beside her, unsettlingly-or if he was feeling kinder, standing at her doorway with a simple breakfast on a tray
( ... )
Sherlock let his fingers run along the edges of the box, pressing in the wrapping to feel the enclosure of the box.
"I think probing is cheating," Joan murmured, sprinkling her eggs with table salt, taking a confident bite.
"I clarified that touching was allowed," Sherlock responded, continuing his probe before putting down the present.
"Well?"
"Based on your level of glee, the fact that we are snowed in for the time being and that you didn't think to get me a present until this morning I can only hypothesize this is something you had in your room. A re-gift I believe it's called. Weighing approximately one and a quarter pounds, in a sealed box sized ten and a half by fifteen and a half inches, two inches deep... this is the Hasbro-produced children's board game Operation. A game I suspect an old colleague or perhaps your brother gave you in the hopes it would be taken with humor but judging by the disdain with which you shoved it in the back of your closet I'm not surprised you would choose to pass it on

There was an intimacy about them now. Though they were still figuring out when exactly that intimacy could be an asset and when it was a distraction, she had grown comfortable with him and he with her.
I AM REALLY BUMMED THAT PHOTOBUCKET SEEMS TO BE OUT OF COMMISSION RIGHT NOW, because I feel like a gif of someone's face while they freak out or cry with delight or something would be SO USEFUL right now! But man, this whole thing was such a delight! You have their voices down perfectly, and not just their voices, but the way you convey the body language between them and how they see each other -- augh, I loved it. I loved literally everything about this -- from the snow to them being snowed-in to him guessing that it was Operation to what he wants for Christmas lol to just allllllll the shared domestic details in this!
"It's sex. And I think it's somewhat of a re-gift as well," Watson murmured dryly, holding in her smile, tapping the cards straight before placing them by the board. JUST PICTURE ZOOEY DESCHANEL CRYING OVER THAT PUPPY

LOL NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo. Ugh, he was so not attractive in that role. Bruce Willis is not hot. Though given your predilection for old weird looking creepers (see: Michael Shannon), you probably liked JGL more like that.
I was writing my stuff the other night as I rewatched the movie (after reading the book, which... UGH IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THAT GOD AWFUL MOVIE) and I thought about how much I fucking hated Blake Lively in the O role and how SHITTY it was written in the movie as compared to the book, so I started recasting it in my brain. And JGL as Ben is a no-brainer for me. And EVERYTHING stars Tom Hardy in some capacity for me lately, and he TOTALLY makes sense in my mind as Chon. And Jessica Chastain can do anything. SO YEAH.
SOMEONE WRITE THIS FOR ME. Or the homeland recast.
(LOLOLOL DID YOU SEE THAT FINALE. I actually laughed.)
LIKE, I SORT OF DUG IT WHEN HE WAS IN MOTION, but every time I see caps I just laugh because his face looks like one of those jacked-up Cloud Atlas characters or something hahaha

(even more bonus points for a teeny-tiny cameo by richard but there's also such a thing as too much wishful thinking)
