Last Line Tag Game

Tagged by @linguini17 months ago, thanks for tagging me! I always take so long to get around to the wip tags because either I don't have active wips or I'm too busy writing to be on tumblr xD but atm I actually got several!

Rules: in a new post, show the last line you wrote (or drew) and tag as many people as there are words (or however many you like).

I already shared a sentence from my GM wip yesterday, and I couldn't decide which wip I should take this time so you're getting them all :D

1. From a very kitschy HacksHBO Avorah fanfic I already told @die-schwanenkoenigin about and am hopefully gonna finish today:

"What, you turning into a vampire now, or is that an announcement to murder me?"

Though, I'm actually not sure whether I'll keep that sequence in the fic. I guess you'll have to wait and see!

2. From an Andromaquynh TOG AU wip that I honestly aren't sure whether I'll ever finish because it would have to be a longfic and Ahhhh time:

The farm is only about half an hour away - Quynh could walk there if she wanted to, but she never does, just staying in the fields and watching the riders from afar.

Not the last line I wrote, just the last sentence I went over. I actually wrote a bit more about this AU here, and if anyone's interested in getting the draft and adopting it, I'd love to hand it over to someone who has the time to write it!

3. From a Lie to Me, Zoe/Gillian follow-up to @ladydedlock 's fic:

Zoe makes an appreciative noise as Gillian starts to kiss her back in earnest, and Gillian smiles against her lips.

Yes, I'm writing the smutty sequel after all :D haven't gotten very far yet but I'm feeling optimistic that it'll get finished at some point instead of ending up on the forever draft pile xD

4. A Berena getting-together at a club AU - it's been done before and I'm doing it again! Inspired by the last time I was at a gay club, already weeks ago now, I'm really not fast with my wips lately...

Bernie had lingered over the bracelets for a few moments before snatching up the green - single: homosexual, and trying to suppress a blush as she hurried through the corridor and into the club proper.

Not actually the last line here either, just the last properly finished sentence.

5. W13: Helena goes clubbing, inspired by the same party the Berena fic's inspired by but a very different direction, established Bering&Wells with H.G. exploring the modern world

Was this going to be a repeat of the Lara Croft archeologist outfit?

Tagging, only if you want to do it of course, everyone already mentioned above and @guardianrock , @ongreenergrasses , @cryhardanddanceharder , @fixomnia-scribble , @lesbianlotties , @astrabear , @spacewitchqueen , @squishmittenficfan , @lavendelhummel , @purlturtle , @viharistenno , @cookie-sheet-toboggan , @barbarawar , @incompletesong , @galactic-pirates , @lonely-night , @flightsofwonder , @sassy-wartime-nun , @verbumproxen , you can share either the last line from all your wips or just from your latest one, or anything in between! :)

Halloween Party

Summary: Everyone gathers at Ericson's Diner for a Halloween Party.

Word Count: 2451

Read on AO3:

“Alright, I think I got this on right,” Violet strolled out of the bedroom in an elegant long white toga. The sides of her hair were braided and a golden laurel wreath rested on the top of her head. She focused on fixing the part of the toga that draped over her arm when she glanced up and noticed that Prisha was looking at her. “Prisha?”

“Sorry, it's just... you’re beautiful. You look amazing in that toga,” Prisha walked forward and took Violet's hands in her own then stole a quick kiss.

Violet was overwhelmed by all of this happening so quickly but soon looked up at her wife with a soft smile. “You look so pretty,” She took a step back and took in Prisha’s Halloween outfit. They had decided to go with a couple’s outfits this year. Prisha had made sure to suggest ones that she knew Violet would be comfortable wearing out in public and they had landed on a good one. Violet stared at Prisha for a few seconds, feeling her face heat up with how beautiful Prisha looked in her toga. Prisha felt her own face grow warm as she wrapped her arms around Violet’s waist. Leaning forward, she captured her wife’s lips in a soft kiss.

“If you two can take a break from kissing, we should head to the party,” Allison wandered out of her room in her Lara Croft costume. She worked to tie the fake bloody bandage on her left arm but was failing. Using her teeth wasn’t working.

“Here, I’ll help you out,” Violet moved forward and helped her daughter with her costume.

“Thanks,” Allison mumbled as she double checked to make sure she had each part of her outfit. The red ice axe rested on her hip as well as the bow on her back which crossed over her tank top.

“So if you’re going as Lara Croft, who is Willy going as?” Prisha asked while she worked to grab the keys and make sure all three of them had everything they needed.

“Nathan Drake,” Allison looked over at her mom with a smile.

“Very fitting choices,” Prisha nodded in approval. “Alright, I have everything. Are you two ready?” ��Yep,” Violet did one more knot on the bandage. “Good to go,” Violet’s fingers intertwined with Prisha’s as if it was second nature as the pair left the apartment.

“Better not tear shit up when you’re having your own party, Sir Tubbs,” Allison looked over at the cat who yawned loudly, causing his Oscar the Grouch costume to wrinkle before he fell back asleep.

Soon the three were in the car and talking about the party. Violet could tell how excited Prisha was about the party but she was also ecstatic to see Violet in a toga. Seeing how happy her wife was Violet couldn’t help but feel the same. It didn’t take long for Prisha to tell Allison for what was surely the twentieth time what she and Violet were dressed as: Helena and Hermia from Midsummer’s Night’s Dream . Prisha went on and on about how much she had shipped them since the first time she read the play and how Shakespeare had gotten things completely wrong.

When they arrived at the diner and opened the door they were hit with Halloween music that helped complement the atmosphere. A snack table was set out with spooky, tasty treats that Omar, Ruby and Renata had worked to make along with a punch bowl where smoke slipped out and swirled round the air thanks to the dry ice inside. Spiderwebs and other decorations covered the walls and two skeletons sat together in a booth playing a game of cards. Louis had helped set them up with Sophie and Marlon’s help.

“Hey, you made it!” Louis ran forward with a lifeguard board, red swim trunks and his signature sunshine smile. “You guys look great!”

“Thanks,” Violet watched as Allison disappeared into the party. Her daughter moved past Oakley and Duck. It was a bit awkward getting by Oakley who was dressed as a washing machine while Duck was dressed as, well, a duck but one who definitely had a story based on the toilet brush he was holding. The couple offered a shortcut for Allison and lifted up their joined hands. Once she was through they continued their conversation as Duck’s thumb gently brushed the top of Oakley’s hands.

“You and Clem came as a Baywatch couple?”

Prisha’s question made Violet turn her attention back to her best friend.

Louis snapped his fingers and pointed at Prisha. “Bingo! Clem is over by T and AJ,” He motioned over to where some people were dancing to “Spooky, Scary Skeletons Remix”. Two dinosaurs seemed to be having a blast as their giant heads bopped to the music. The inflatable T-rex who they soon discovered was Telulah thanks to the small, clear window at the front of her costume was busy holding both of AJ’s hands while he was dressed as a velociraptor. Clementine laughed and danced along in her red lifeguard swimsuit as she tried to get Omar to join in. The ever calm chef now dressed as Remy from Ratatouille turned down the request but tapped his foot to the beat of the song.

“Come on and grab some snacks - they are spookylicious!” Louis grinned at his pun as he led the way. Prisha and Violet followed close behind him, their fingers still intertwined. When they arrived at the food table they noticed Nurgul and Gabe. Nurgul was dressed as a purple Care Bear. A smiling star and heart with a rainbow connected them were embossed on her belly. Gabe was also a Care Bear. His outfit was blue and the symbol on his stomach was a stormy cloud that dropped a few raindrops and hearts.

“Prisha, Violet!” Nurgul gave a friendly smile and wrapped both of them in a hug.

“Hey, are you a Care Bear?”

Violet’s question made Nurgul’s eyes shimmer. “Yep! I’m Best Friends Care Bear and Gabe is Grumpy Bear,” Nurgul took her husband’s hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

“I don’t know why I agreed to wear this,” A grumpy expression was on his face, making Nurgul laugh softly.

“I think your face right now answers that,” Nurgul got on her tiptoes and pressed a kiss to Gabe’s lips. His face heated up and he pulled the hood of the onesie down a bit. The couple shared another kiss before they realized they were at the food table.

“Shit, sorry,” Gabe grabbed Nurgul’s hand and the pair moved out of the way.

“Thank you,” Prisha looked over at her friends with warmth then began to examine the different spooky treats. Cinnamon rolls were baked in the shape of intestines and glazed with red icing and cute cupcakes with ghosts and ghouls were surrounded by piles of candied apples. “What treats should we try?” Prisha smiled over at her wife.

“I don’t know,” Violet studied the contents of the table. “I’m more surprised that Soph isn’t hogging the table.” Just as Violet said that she heard her best friend’s loud, bright voice.

“Holy shit, Ren! Six apples?!?” Sophie watched her friend in awe as she threw back her head from the large bucket of water, another apple in her mouth.

Renata spat out the apple with a ‘pah’ sound before she brushed back her hair and sent a wink over to Minnie. “That’s seven - think I can reach ten?”

Minnie felt a blush creep up on her face as she stared at the sexy Princess Leia costume Renata was wearing. The outfit was making her heart pound out of control. “Yeah,”

“I bet I can eat that many on my turn in the water!” Sophie strolled forward proudly, her Starfire outfit shining as it reflected the different lights at the party. Cupping Marlon’s face, she gave him a kiss to hype herself up. As soon as the kiss was done Sophie got ready to chow down on underwater apples while Marlon stood there in a dreamy daze, looking like a dork in his Robin costume.

As the happy redhead worked to eat those apples all while listening to Renata’s cheerful chants, Minnie watched with amusement until she heard a familiar voice.

“It seems Sophie is having a fun time,” James spoke in his usual whisper-like voice. Minnie glanced over her friend’s way, noticing that he was dressed as the bottom half of a horse.

“Yeah, just hope she doesn’t get water up her nos- aaand she got it up her nose,” Minnie let out a snort as Sophie wheezed and shook her head wildly while Renata whacked her back and Marlon hurried over to help.

After a few seconds Sophie gave a shaky thumbs up and she tried to get back to the challenge but Marlon talked her out of it, holding her hand and suggesting that they go to the food table instead. Sophie nodded excitedly, pressing a kiss to Marlon’s cheek. Soon the two were talking happily, their joined hands swaying as they made their way over.

“Hey, I thought you didn’t like Han Solo?”

Jesse drew Minnie's attention, making her notice that he was the front of the horse, a name tag that said “horse” on his chest.

“I don’t like him; he’s an ass. But Ren wanted to dress up as Leia,” Minnie explained before she felt her wife’s arms slip around her waist.

“Besides, Min looks super hot in the outfit,” Renata got on her tiptoes and stole a kiss. “Also I look sexy in this outfit so we’re really the hottest couple here,”

“Heh, okay,”

Jesse’s response made Minnie’s eyebrows furrow. “What was with that response?”

“Nothing, just that if anyone is the hottest couple here, it's me and James and he’s dressed as a horse’s ass so what does that say about you?” Jesse smirked as he noticed he was irritating Minnie but before any more headbutting could occur Renata chimed in.

“Oh! Well maybe we’ll truly become the hottest couple after my costume change. In fact, I’m going to give Log Legs a small hint,” Renata had a playfully teasing smile on her face as she got on her tiptoes and whispered into Minnie’s ear. What she was saying made Minnie turn as red as her hair before Renata stepped away. “Well, it's time to change,” She smiled at Minnie for as long as she could before she spun around, emphasizing the sway of her hips as she disappeared into the small crowd of people. On her way to the break room to change she noticed her favorite teen. “Hey there, Allie!” Renata ruffled her friend’s hair. “Having fun?”

“Sure,” Allison answered, her face looking stoic as always.

“Trying to find someone?” Renata tilted her head to the side, trying to spot whoever Allison was looking for.

“Yeah, I’m trying to find- Willy!” A smile broke out on Allison’s face as she spotted her energetic boyfriend dressed as the infamous treasure hunter Nathan Drake. The water pistols in the twin holsters on his arms sloshed faintly as he jogged over towards Allison.

“Allie!” Willy wrapped his girlfriend up in a hug and spun her around. “I found you!” He gave a big smile before placing her down.

“Yep, you found me,” Allison gave a soft smile, her pinky wrapping around Willy’s.

Willy swayed on his feet back and forth. “So, what do you want to do first? Dancing? Eating?”

“I wanted to play cards with the skeletons,” Allison saw excitement dance in her boyfriend’s eyes at that.

“Yes!! Let’s go!” Willy grabbed Allison’s hand and excitedly led the way. The young couple ran through the party, running past Mitch and Brody.

“Be careful!” Brody called out but saw that neither of them were listening. With a tired sigh she took her husband’s hand.

“Don’t worry about it, Brodes. They’re just having fun,” Mitch smiled over at Brody and led the way to a spooky game that was about to get started.

Brody gave a nod “Yeah, you’re right. Anyways, ready to kick ass and win prizes?” She flashed a competitive smile up at Mitch.

He immediately returned it. “Fuck yeah, we’re gonna kick ass as the two best fighters in Resident Evil,” Mitch displayed his Leon Kennedy costume proudly then glanced over at Brody. She looked amazing in Claire Redfield’s red leather jacket.

Brody caught her husband’s eyes on her. “What?”

“Nothing, just think you look fucking badass,”

Brody blushed at Mitch’s words and planted a kiss on his cheek then continued to lead the way.

The couple soon passed by Ruby and Aasim dressed as Jessie and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story who were talking casually until a certain song perked up Ruby’s interest. Twirling her lasso, she snagged it round Aasim. The action whacked against one of his buttons, deploying his wings as an overwhelmed smile pulled on the corner of his lips. Ruby had a confident smirk as she roped him into a dance. As the two danced they noticed that Clementine and Louis were cuddling in a booth.“Aww, aren’t you two the darn cutest lifeguards around!” Ruby smiled over at the couple who were holding onto each other tightly.

“It's for survival,” Clementine nuzzled her face closer and tucked it under Louis’ chin.

“Turns out being dressed in swimwear and putting the air conditioning on high was a bad call,” Louis cuddled closer to his wife. “The AC makes the ghost decorations that James and Tenn made look extra cute though!”

Aasim was about to make a comment until Renata’s bright voice appeared from the hallway. “Is everyone ready for my big reveal?” Minnie swallowed roughly. If what Renata whispered in her ear was really a hint, then she was extremely overwhelmed at the thought of this costume reveal. She had teased that it would show even more skin.

“Alright, here I go!” Renata strolled forward dramatically. Before she had even turned the corner Minnie had passed out, right by the punch bowl. No one seemed to notice though as all their eyes were on Renata’s next costume, jiggling wildly as she bounced out in a large inflatable Jabba the Hutt costume. She gave her best Jabba sounds as Sophie cheered and sang an improv parody of the Teen Titans theme.

“When there’s trouble you know who to call - call Jabba! She can leave a slime trail made of goooooo - It's Jabba!” The song was quickly devolving into nonsense but the two friends didn’t seem to mind nor did the others as they enjoyed the party. Halloween at Ericson’s Diner was always a spooky good time.
