Prompting Part XXXV
GUIDELINES
- Anon posting is not required, but most definitely allowed. If you think you recognise an anon, keep it to yourself and don’t out them. IP tracking is off, and will remain that way.
- Multiple fills are encouraged, and all kinds of fills are accepted! Fic, art, vids, cosplay, interpretive dance — whatever. Go wild! :D
- Don’t reprompt until TWO parts after the last posting of the prompt.
- RPF (real person fic, i.e. fic involving the actors themselves) is not supported at this meme.
- Concrit is welcome, but kinkshaming, hijacking, and flaming are not tolerated.
THE FILLED PROMPTS POST
When you fill a prompt, please use the appropriate Filled Prompts Post to archive your fill (there are instructions on the actual post).
If the part you wanted isn't up yet, just wait and one of the archivists will get to it, but please, once it is up, make sure you post your fills there according to the guidelines. DO NOT skip out on doing this because it seems like too much effort. If you want your fill to make it to the Delicious archive, that’s the way to do it.
Do not be afraid to ask questions about how it works if you are confused! The mods will be happy to explain.
WARNINGS/OFFENSIVE WORDING IN PROMPTS
Please consider warning for prompts that may trigger people (and also for fills, because some people read in flat view) and phrasing prompts in a manner that strives to be respectful.
Things which you might want to consider warning for include: Rape/Non-Con, Death, Suicidal Thoughts, Self-Harm, Underage Relationships, among others.
That being said, this is a kink meme. As such, there will be prompts that could offend you in a number of different ways. Not every prompt will have a trigger warning, and not every prompt will rub you the right way. If you have an issue with a specific prompt, feel free to bring it up in a discussion that takes place off the meme. However, flaming will not be tolerated regardless of origin.
You are highly encouraged to scroll past any prompt that you dislike.
Remember: be civil, be friendly, but don’t be shy!
THINGS THAT MAKE BROWSING THE MEME EASIER FOR EVERYONE
Please nest your fills. Doing so will make it easier for archivists to save your fills to the Delicious archive. Using subject lines will also help people reading the meme in flatview keep track of what’s happening. Finally, titling your fills (even if it’s something silly) will be helpful to those tracking a lot of prompts or scrolling through the meme.
PROMPT FREEZES
Depending on the rate of activity, there may or may not be a prompt freeze when a part reaches 2000 and 4500 comments. However, there will be one when it reaches 7000. After the 7000 comments freeze, a new part will be posted, and all prompting should happen on the new part.

FILL 8/9 Romeo to Juliet (Sherlock object sexual, Moriarty steals his beloved)
(Anonymous) 2014-05-05 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)"I suggest you give me the case."
"Oh, Johnny. Or else? I already told Sherlock. This particular item needs to be hand-delivered," he sang the rest of the sentence, "with love, from me, to you."
"The streets have been blocked around this building. You can't just duck into a car and drive off. I will follow you right out of here and I will get what I came for. If I have to injure you fatally in the process, so be it."
"I always considered the possibility of a no-show. And I don't think you'd harm me. First off, because it is the middle of the afternoon in the heart of London, but, even more importantly, because you owe me. If I wasn't back on the scene, we both know your bestie's plane wouldn't have turned around and he would have toasted the new year with vodka in Siberia and you would have never seen him again." John broke eye contact. "So. You will let me out of this building unharmed. Just so you know, laser trackers are terribly difficult to see in the daylight, but we both know there's no good reason to take out the queen when the match has just started. This is just me having a little fun. I will walk to the Underground, and you will let me."
Moriarty headed out of the building as John trailed behind. When he had descended the steps, John didn't follow.
Sherlock watched as Moriarty and the case boarded train number 347 on the District Line, northbound. Once the car was in motion, he dropped the paper on the bench and headed outside.
On the train, Jim glanced toward the back of the car to be sure that Clay had followed him. Once confirmed, he ignored him. A dark-haired woman was going from car to car, frantically calling for a child named Marcus. Jim's man eyed her suspiciously until she returned, pulling what must have been Marcus by the arm. Jim scrutinised each person in the compartment; he didn't have Sherlock's level of skill, but he was able to spot someone armed easily enough. Finding no one, he relaxed.
Well, home then. He was sorely disappointed that all he met with was John Watson's pseudo bravery and stupid theatrics.
The train didn't leave the stop. Instead, the conductor announced that the car was being replaced, and all passengers should exit at this time. Jim Moriarty didn't move a muscle as the other passengers shuffled past. He sat, waited, and spoke out loud as they disembarked, like a stewardess thanking passengers for the flight. "I was only trying to get Sherlock to play. So much fuss over this." He tapped the case. "Honestly. I'm just trying to be helpful. Secrets can be so toxic to your friends and family. Sherlock needs to" he grinned broadly, "let it go."
Mycroft came into view and took the seat next to Jim. Clay sat across from the two.
"I believe you have something which belongs to my brother."
"Pleasure to see you again. Friends and family present and accounted for and very much aware. Just as well. I'm not really sure what to do with this old thing. Give him his love, would you?"

(Anonymous) 2014-05-06 02:04 am (UTC)(link)Sherlock was once again dressed in his usual attire. "He's safe." He'ssafehe'ssafe.
"I've checked the contents of the case. Everything is present and accounted for. I didn't touch anything inside, just a visual confirmation. The string, of course, is missing. Everything else appears to be... unharmed." Mycroft placed the case on the sofa. He held out a small paper bag. "New E-string. And new rosin. It was cracked."
Sherlock's hand moved slowly as he accepted the offering. He was about to speak when Mycroft nodded, turned and headed out the door. He stood there for a moment at the doorway before retreating to his chair.
"John, I... have not been forthright. I apologise for the deception. I was, perhaps, a bit more protective of myself than I needed to be. I'm... not attracted to the violin."
"I can see it in your eyes, Sherlock. It's all fine, you don't have to hide anything. I don't think I can truly relate, but, I can at least try to understand. I'm so sorry I mocked you before. And when I thought I understood, I really didn't. I sometimes run across similar situations at conferences." Sherlock frowned. "No, hear me out. In Dublin, they mentioned there were over 500 types of paraphilias, all seeing the world through whatever sexual lens, and nearly all of them are considered perfectly healthy. If it isn't a challenge to consent, it's all fine, and I mean that."
"I appreciate that, John, but, I'll show you. Would you hand me my violin?"
John paused a moment, puzzled, before opening the case and doing so.
Sherlock took it, and began an aggressive pizzicato, holding the violin like a small guitar. "Still trying to process. It does help me think."
He watched them together for a moment. It wasn't what he'd expected. If this was his lover, it sure didn't seem like it. Was he witnessing a quarrel?
He continued to play as he spoke. "I need to think about...what to say. I failed him. If I had used extra precautions, treated him differently than other valuable items in flat, I would have just drawn more attention to him. As it was, he still wasn't safe. The string...he came so close."
He carried the violin back to the case lying on the sofa. Still holding the violin in one hand, he opened it, and his hand seemed to shake slightly as he raised the top. He placed the violin in the case gently, and then crouched down on his knees, staring into the still-opened case. Bringing himself to eye level, with his bow.
It wasn't an expression he was used to seeing, the look on Sherlock's face as he lifted the clip which anchored him. Fear, remorse, gratitude. He ran a finger down the length of the wood and stopped. He meticulously examined the frog, then the tip, adjusted the ferrule, and when satisfied all appeared to be in working order, he glided his fingers as if he was touching each individual strand of hair, though he was careful not to make actual contact. John got the impression he might not like that type of touch, or ... maybe he wasn't ready for it yet? He was definitely intruding on this scene. As he turned away and ascended the stairs, he heard a quiet "Thank you, John." He chose not to respond.
On the way up, he heard music...tentative and uncertain. Then more confident. Flowing. Until finally it was smooth and harmonious and beautiful and... private. He went up to his room and closed the door.
