Fluff, Relationships, and Traditions

This entry is part 52 of 52 in the series 365 Challenge

So characters have habits, ways they interact with certain people and situations, things they do and like to do, stories and histories together. I've known a lot of my characters' for a long time but getting them all into fic is interesting, particularly for the ones I don't know that for.

I've got about five novelettes I want to turn out plus a short story, created out of the 5 Things Meme and then the whole Pieter/Ashen dynamic that originally played in my head before I even wrote that first Ashen drabble (and it is awesome to me, but got sidelined drastically with a deluge of other prompts), but, but, but...

I'm on day 265 of my challenge and story count 157 and I'm still plying angles and there's all those little things above that I'm itching to nibble at. Want to help a girl out?

Particularly of interest to me are things like where does Wesley work (not sure actually), and then relationship things that I haven't gotten to like how Justus always recognizes Shift regardless of her current form or demeanor, friendships, sibling relationships, Ilsa and her husband, etc.

Calling for prompts, as promised:

  1. character(s) and/or canon/fandom
  2. random word, quote, or other prompt

Oh, and I'll try to keep it short and fluffy or sweet. Try is the operative word. :grins:

Kingdoms and Thorn Ficlet: We Can't Have That

"Stubborn little thing, isn't she?" Rett commented wryly as baby Anya refused her bottle for the tenth time despite her wails clearly indicating hunger.

Red Wolf rubbed the side of his face and hair and simply nodded, too weary to do anything else. Whisper certainly had the patience for this, but she'd taken the last week and was now taking a well-earned rest.

Rett had been surprised when he called earlier and offered to babysit for a night. Wolf's acceptance was about what he expected from a drowning man, not a new father.

"Clearly you never had a new baby," Wolf found the energy to say.

Rett gave him a look. It was downright annoying when he seemed to read your mind and everybody knew he didn't have a mindreading capability. "Because you totally hate strong willed women," Rett teased dryly. He coaxed Anya to just please take the bottle.

Wolf shook his head. "Whisper's got a strong will, but Anya's willful."

Anya's face screwed up in preparation for another wail.

"There's a difference?" Rett craned his neck to see Wolf better. The man needed to go to bed.

Wolf just gestured in the direction of his screaming offspring. "That is the difference."

Anya's a little terror, isn't she?

:)

Nice moment with the two guys.

Storm as a babysitter is an interesting idea. There should be more of that.

Yes, she is. She's got a journey ahead of her becoming a lady. :grins:

I had fun with the two commiserating. I'll plot up some more babysitter Rett then. Ought to be fun actually.

Lol. That should be fun, too.

I look forward to more babysitter Rett.
