Borrowed from every snowflake and their friend this week:

THREE SENTENCE AU MEME
Give me pairings (or characters). Give me an AU setting. I will write you a three-sentence fic.

I will also finally be responding to comments and getting down to work on the draft of xmenbigbang this morning. I have a week (and a clear outline, thankfully). Stranger miracles have happened. ;P

The story will follow the Brotherhood after the end of X-Men: First Class with background Charles/Erik, Erik/Raven, Azazel/Riptide, and Alex/Hank/Sean, but they're incidental to the story.

What are people's opinions on listing background character relationships when the movement is primarily gen?

I'd list them just so they're there, but make sure to note in your Author's Notes or the pairing list itself they're background pairings.

I'd like some Gabriel/Castiel in a 'verse where they're both MIB agents. 8D

[morganoconner.livejournal.com]

My request:

Dean/Gabriel - AU where one or both is a college professor

:D?

[synnerxx.livejournal.com]

AU meme: Gabriel/Michael/Lucifer/Raphael (or gen, idc) Gabriel owns a candy shop

[roachstar.livejournal.com]

Am I allowed to request

Ryan/Esposito - High School fic

? :)

[nights-fang.livejournal.com]

Lucifer/Adam/Michael - High School or College AU

[cashay.livejournal.com]

Michael/Adam/Sam/Lucifer - maybe being in jail doesn't suck all that much

[ladyknightanka.livejournal.com]

I agree with synnerxx's advice and, on a related note, OMG, YAY FOR STARTING WORK ON XBB! If you were anyone else, I'd worry about the closing deadline, but you're you, so my worries are obviously unfounded. ♥

As for my prompt: SPN, Michael/Adam. Adam's a senior in high school, almost eighteen, and he's had a crush on his oldest brother's detective partner for years. When prom rolls around, he finally musters up the courage to ask Michael. Because I think puppy love!Adam would be so adorable...

Okay I have no idea what's making me prompt this but

Lucifer/Adam Teacher/Student AU.

[nights-fang.livejournal.com]

If I get obnoxious, please tell me to stop. I kind of really love the way you write AUs.

SPN Mafia AU?

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

*chinhands* Can I have some younger-vessel!Zachariah/Dean in an AU of that episode where Dean meets him?

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

And since no one else has prompted it yet: Gabriel owns a candy shop AU, with someone trying to teach Raphael how not to terrify customers.

[zekkass.livejournal.com]

More Candy Shop verse, with Lucifer trying his hand at making Raphael behave with customers this time. >3

Also, give me anal retentive Gabriel as a cop giving Dean a speeding ticket. Up to you if Gabriel's got magic Trickster/angel powers or not.
