I flailed so hard. Non con cuddling. Yes. Because of all the things Marcone may have teetered on the edge of wanting to force from Harry, trust and affection would be at the top of the list.

Excellent story! I thought the POV was very well done (and the bit about Justin wasting his energy on getting Elaine to do what she wanted to do anyway was pretty funny). Also, would love to see a sequel a few years later too. :-)

Ok, meme. I know we've got a Dr Who crossover started on round 1, but what I would reallly like to see is Captain Jack Harkness encountering the White Court.
Basically I'm wondering how Jack's 51st century omnisexuallity/extreme selectiveness (Flirts with everyone, but the only thing he finds hot is informed, enthusistic consent) stands up (as it were) to divinely beautiful lust eaters. I don't know whether his lack of hang ups/21st century labels would make him more attractive to them or less, but I'd love to find out. Plus he comes back after death, always a plus.
Anyone else curious? Inspired? *proffers cheesecake*

"Can you say that again, but wait just a second. I've always wanted to do a spit take." I took a sip of my Coke and made a 'go ahead' gesture with my fingers.

= best line ever!

So funny, and so very Harry.

Utter, utter cliche, but could I see John/Harry in some minor kind of peril that results in them getting tied up together? And then a lot of hopeful wiggling for freedom? And John being absolutely furious with himself when his body reacts in a completely unhelpful fashion? Bonus points if Harry is surprised but doesn't freak out.

Also, Public Service Announcement:

First three chapters of Ghost Story go up on Jim's website tomorrow for free preview:

http://www.jim-butcher.com/

SO EXCITED.

Oh man. I can't decide if that preview's awesome or just mean. I mean, the promo timing made more sense with the previous release date. With this, it's going to be SO LONG before it comes out.

tell me if it's awesome?

First three of five!

I will tackle you with high pitch squeeing if it's awesome. *nods*

i am the OP of the other Dr. Who meme (and the filler! IMPATIENT OP IS IMPATIENT) and I can only say:

YES PLEASE DO WANT

A++++!

ROFLMAO! Kinkaid is awesome. And the ending! Perfect. :-D

You're the writer? That is such a good fill! If you're still taking plot suggestions; have you considered a Chameleon Arch/pocket watch thing? Everyone in DF verse would be interested in obtaining a Time Lord/Lady, and the Doctor would be interested in finding whoever was hiding....

This was really good. I love how the differences between the two Johns highlighted all their similiarities too. And I love, love, LOVE that Harry initiated the threesome, at least as far as Canonverse!Marcone tells it. Harry's different when he's loved too (how far after Near Miss is this set? Princess!), and I can't help but wonder how his reponse to some of those differences (like how the commentors have all been so sad) in Canonverse!John are reflected in his offer.

Like another commentor above, I have to wonder if you are one or both, I see you've answered some other prompt together, of the original authors, if only because if you are, then I want to know more about Thommy White and what happened to Hendricks? D:

This is a really great fill. I'd never really thought about AUs and canon colliding like this before, but I sure am now. (And I really hope some other anons are inspired to try their hand at this prompt too... I want more!)

Don't care about AU or where you spin off canon, as long as the essential personalities are the same.

Harry and Johnny have been fumbling through a relationship for a few months now, but both are frustrated by a perceived lack of intimacy and affection from the other. They don't realize they're doing exactly the thing that upsets them from the other - Harry knows what he means when he kisses John wordlessly in the morning (something sappy, like This is the most beautiful man in the world), but John thinks it's just about sex, nothing more. John thinks it's obvious that when he sends lunch to Harry's office, he is showing his love the only way he knows how: food. But Harry thinks he's saying "stay away from my office," or "take better care of yourself."

Until one of them notices a couple using pet names and decides, last ditch effort to save the relationship, to try it. Cue the most passionate sex they've ever had, and suddenly they're both using pet names all the time.

Super sparkly bonus points if John calls Harry "princess" at least once. Double plus extra bonus points if Harry likes it.

:D Just as luciazephyr commented, Rahm and John is going to eat Harry alive. Figurtively of course. :)

I just have to say, I really like how happy Harry is in this compared to Canonverse. He's not worried about his rent, enemies coming to attack him and his friends, and he's just focused on making his customers happy.

Although I have to say, John, once Harry finds out about your real occupation(coughMobBosscough), he's going to give you the silent treatment and possibly not give you special coffee. :D

So I'm not sure if we really fooled anyone staying anon on this one. One of the reasons we did was so it wouldn't be read as the last word: the situation is already an au (...off the au, I know) and I want to see other takes on it too. I'm hoping that people do try it out.

Good catch on Harry, by the way--NM Harry definitely doesn't like to see anyone shaped like John feeling lousy. He must have been feeling pretty ballsy when he out and suggested a three-way. But hey, Marcone's not so bad for an evil twin, and he fills out a suit nicely, so there's a bonus.

There's definitely a story on Thommy White (they're subtle, those brothers) and Hendricks--which optimistically we're actually going to get into a sequel. But let's just say that Hendricks stayed in the business (and is quietly part of the reason that John is still breathing) and it's a really crappy time to be a goomba in the Chicago mob.

I know I haven't answered all your questions--with luck Binz will come along and actually say something articulate. We're super glad you liked it, though.

Hee! I love Harry eating John's breakfast and leaving a mess, just to annoy him. (Do I detect pigtail-pulling?)

I also love that Harry is about to set John on fire when he kisses her, until he says "please." It really is a magic word for those two, isn't it? Neither one can resist the other showing that kind of vulnerability.

Okay, I just finished Proven Guilty and got to that part with Molly.

And it really seemed like that was the voice of experience speaking.

So there needs to be a Justin/Harry fic where Harry is a young teenager, and confused, and full of hormones, and coming off a long string of loneliness and betrayed trust, and Justin is handsome and charismatic and powerful and kind and he saved Harry and is teaching him and kind of reminds him of his father and seems like he actually listens to him; and Harry makes Justin an offer.

And Justin handles it in a way that makes Harry's strategy with Molly seem like a paragon of sensitivity and wisdom and caring.

(You can make it as fucked up as you want but I'd prefer it if Justin wasn't using any magical coercion to make Harry react to him that way.)

No one else started fights in Mac's.

LOL!

I poked at him when I got the chance just because I didn't like being comfortable with him.

Uh huh, sure that's why.

"Can you say that again, but wait just a second. I've always wanted to do a spit take."

I am in love with your Harry. She kicks SO MUCH ASS. I just want to follow her around all day watching her kick ass and be obnoxious at people.

I love her relationship with Sigrun, too. Of course they'd be closer than male!Harry and Gard. (God, now I'm slashing them in my head. Mmm, warrior women.)

I am wildly speculating about where this plot is going to go. I hope there are opportunities for Harry to break out the magic and bowl people over with her awesome!

This fill is good and you should feel good. :D

WANT. Please. With cherry on top.

Now I'm thinking that it should be the Bakery Accords, so that there can be various Pastry Courts for the vampires, the Toast Council for the wizards... what would the Fae courts be? I'm really enamored of the phrase "Freeholding Lord of Cream Cheese," so that has to stay. It just makes me giggle helplessly every time I read it. (His other title can be the Baron of Bagels!)

Why am I spending mental effort on figuring out what bakery products might symbolize Summer and Winter? Kinkmeme, what have you done to me? *facepalm*

Titania, the Blueberry Muffin Queen? Thomas the Chocolate Eclair vampire?

I've thought about it, but I don't think i'm going there. I prefer Marcone, for example, as a mortal (I kind of think making him not mortal lessens the impact of his awesome. like BATMAN!) and I'm not sure which of the other characters would fit.

I'm trying to keep original characters to a bare minimum, seeing as i have two universes and a multitude of species to handle already.

Me three!!!

I shouldn't write this because it'll likely come up in my epicfic, but whatever.

It was an accident.

I was looking over a sigil in the Baron's office, trying to suss out who exactly was trying to kill him this time and if it was Winter. If it was Winter, I had to let my Queen know someone was breaking the Accords and going rogue. Knighthood for you.

I looked at the curve of the sigil in my Sight, taking in the icy, sharpness radiating out from it. I knew what Winter magic looked like and that was pretty damning. I sighed.

"What's the verdict, Knight Dresden?" Marcone said and his voice was too close by. I startled slightly, looked up and

A crown. A rusted crown sat on his brow. The metal of it was tarnished and dented, but the center spire rose high and shining over his head. It looked like the Willis Tower, but then Marcone tilted his head and it changed to the Aon. Chicago's Lord.

His eyes were the same. Green eyes peaked out through the slits in a mask. It covered his face from his brow downward to curve over the apples of his cheeks. It was black, opaque leather, seeming to suck in light. It drew my attention, like I was supposed to be taken in by the mask and avoid looking at the rest of him. It took a lot of effort to look away.

His crown and mask were at odds with his clothes-- the same suit he wore outside my Sight, but red. He was soaked in red, enough to make his suit thick and heavy, weighing down on him. It looked heavy. Blood dripped over his skin, marring the lines over his skin: tiger stripes.

I looked away, back to the sigil, vaguely aware I was breathing hard, my heart thumping in my chest.

"Knight Dresden?"

"Give me a sec," I breathed. I shut my eyes and futilely tried to push the image of Marcone out of my mind. It wouldn't budge, this visage shining behind my lids.

So it might be terrible, so you can tell me if you want me to continue or not after this.

It had been a long day. To be honest, it had been a long night too, and I’d just gotten home a couple hours before dawn after killing a bright orange tentacle monster that oozed corrosive blue goo. Which exploded on me when it died. After spending two hours under freezing water trying to get the burning goo out of my scalp, all I wanted to do was sleep. Unfortunate how things never go the way I want, as the moment my head hit the pillow there was a knock on my door.

I would have been perfectly content to ignore the knocking but it just grew louder and more insistent.

“Dresden, open the door before I kick it down! There’s a problem!” I perked up at problem. The voice was familiar, but not one I heard often. Trudging to the door and looking through the peephole, I groaned.

Hendricks.

Hell’s bells, of course the problem would have something to do with Gentleman Johnny Marcone. Only he’d be so spiteful as to get into trouble when I wanted to get some z’s. I contemplated not answering, but Hendricks had looked agitated enough for my conscience to get the better of me.

Fine, have it your way conscience.

I yanked opened the door and fixed Hendricks with my best glare. “This better be good Cujo, because i have a date with the Sandman that you are making me late for.”

Hendricks grunted, unfazed at my glare. He jerked his head down and towards the right. “Fix him.”

“Fix wha-” That’s when I saw a mass of dark hair peaking out from behind the large man’s pant leg. The hair moved and I was face to face with a pair of money-green eyes glowering at me as well as a five year-old could.

Hell’s fucking bells.

Round 2 is closed.
