1) All fills for prompts of the earlier prompt posts go in the post the prompt was posted in. No re-posting or splitting up prompts and fills.
2) Self-prompt when you post unprompted fic. (This means posting what the fill is about in a first comment, like a real prompt, and commenting on that with your fill.)
3) Try not to get too srs business.

Self Prompt: Mafia AU

[mordentlore]

Brief excerpt I found on my computer, which I think spawned from a discussion where Sarah Teather was described as a mafia boss. My anonymuse liked it. This was written.

Mafia AU [1/1]

[mordentlore]

It didn’t pay to underestimate Sarah. She might only have been 4’10 - and that, David thought, was being slightly generous - but she knew. She just knew.

And that, he mused as he retied his tie, was why Gove just had to go.

It wasn’t enough that he’d apologised, it wasn’t enough at all. He’d acted without researching, he’d made Sarah look a fool. If there was anything Sarah hated, it was being made to look a fool. David wasn’t stupid, far from it. You didn’t get this far in The Organisation if you were. Sarah trusted him to act on his own - she trusted few other people. That was why, as soon as he’d heard about Gove, he knew.

John knew as well. John, the “third wheel”. He’d messaged David, in what could be construed as a warning. The three of them headed The Organisation, were viewed as the real masterminds behind anything in the city.

Not bad for three people that had never hit average height, David thought, and he smirked in the mirror.

Don't suppose your muse feels like donating a little more? Would love to read a fully fledged fic for this.

You know the best way to get that out of your head is to write it, right? Speaking from experience!

Oh, MOAR, anon!

I was going to ask if Gove found a teddy's head in his bed and realised it was Time to Go, but I don't want to detract from the awesomeness of The Organisation. :D

The Organization! The home of BAMFy evil short people! I love this! Especially that you included John in it.
