Face to Face, Business as Usual, Life Choices
catching up on some prompts for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
crimeinthelight. for the first one, i'm declaring myself officially obsessed with sonny sassone.
TITLE: Face to Face
AUTHOR:iluvroadrunner6
CHALLENGE: #10-Wild Card
WORD COUNT: 168
DISCLAIMER: I don’t own the characters of CSI:NY. They’re owned by CBS.
SPOILERS: “Run Silent, Run Deep”
RATING: PG-13
CHARACTERS: Danny Messer and Sonny Sassone
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Sonny’s POV. Catching up on the prompts I missed while I was on vacation. This is for prompt #8, Law & Order titles, and the episode I used was “Faccia a Faccia” (yes, Emily has no title creativity).
Face to face, eye to eye. He probably thought I didn’t know he was there. Probably thought I couldn’t see him, sitting on the prosecution’s side, next to his mama, fighting to hide her tear streaked face, and his pop, who was yellin at her for lookin like a wuss. Women with pride didn’t cry in public. And all the wives of those who were made like we were, were women with pride.
All that was missin was that Goddamn snitch Louie.
At least he had a spine. Danny didn’t even have that. Every time there was something involvin me over at that geek cop place, he was nowhere near me. And whether it was Taylor coverin his own ass or Danny just not having the spine to touch it, but as I was sitting there at the defense table, dressed ten times better than that baby Messer would ever be, I had only one question in mind.
Would Baby Messer ever come to me, face to face?
now, i don’t really ship horatio/marisol (they kind of give me the creeps, no offense to anyone who does) but this prompt clearly emblazoned horatio in my mind and there was nothing i could do to stop it.
TITLE: Business as Usual
AUTHOR:iluvroadrunner6
CHALLENGE: #10-Wild Card
WORD COUNT: 155
DISCLAIMER: I don’t own the characters of CSI:Miami. They’re owned by CBS.
SPOILERS: “Shock”
RATING: PG-13
CHARACTERS: Horatio Caine and Marisol Delko-Caine
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Post-ep “Shock.” Still catching up. Prompt #9: Taking care of business.
The relationship was still so new to him, having someone to come home to every night. He was used to coming home to an empty apartment, having no one there but him in his own thoughts. It still a bit unnerving when he came home to what was supposed to be an empty bed to find someone in it, someone with dark hair and brown eyes, whose features reminded him of someone he knew.
It was the same every night though, this new routine that they were settling into. Despite it’s recent birth and newness, it had managed to become routine, and he was beginning to expect it in the back of his mind. A soft arm would slink across his middle as he would climb into bed next to her, and a quiet voice would whisper to him:
“How was your day?”
And he would always reply:
“Business as usual, ma’am. Business as usual.”
and this because i seem to be on a flack kick lately, even in my drabbles. but this one is flack/maka. for some variety.
TITLE: Life Choices
AUTHOR:iluvroadrunner6
CHALLENGE: #10-Wild Card
WORD COUNT:
DISCLAIMER: I don’t own the characters of CSI:NY. They’re owned by CBS.
SPOILERS: N/A
RATING: PG-13
CHARACTERS: Don Flack and Kaile Maka
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Now, throwing in an extra one for good measure. Prompt #8: Law and Order episodes: “Life Choices” (see, Emily hate titles.)
Flack always had to shake himself when people mentioned that their becoming a cop was a life choice. Because technically for him it was, but it had never really been a choice. More of an expectation. An assumption. When he was six years-old, if someone asked him what he was going to be when he grew up, he didn’t have to think about it, or come up with five million back-ups, like every other child.
“I’m gonna be a cop, just like my Dad.”
So when a somewhat smashed Kaile Maka asks him what he thinks he would have done if he didn’t become a cop he doesn’t have an answer. Luckily, Maka doesn’t wait to long when she’s drunk for you to answer her.
“An accountant,” she slurs, before hitting his arm not-so-lightly and laughing, “Can you imagine me, with the little visor and the pencils and the calculator?” She leans into his arm as he walks her home, enjoying the closeness they’re having right then. “What about you? What would you be?”
He threw out some random answer, something he figured he’d probably never consider in a million years, and she accepts it and drops it. Because she knows that he’s thinking the same thing she was. Being a cop wasn’t ever a life choice for him. It was just his life.

And in the third story, "Life Choices", this was my favorite quote:
"He threw out some random answer, something he figured he’d probably never consider in a million years, and she accepts it and drops it. Because she knows that he’s thinking the same thing she was. Being a cop wasn’t ever a life choice for him. It was just his life."
Very well, written, all three!
p.s. Horatio and Marisol kinda give me the creeps too!
