Celebrate Prompt Times, Come On!

[sweetprince]

Last week's Flashforward totally paid homage to Generation Kill (I'm choosing to view it that way anyway). A woman driving in a HumVee in Iraq radioed in to Godfather as Hitman 2. And in the same episode that Callum Keith Rennie was gallivanting about. When I was watching it last night I had to immediately inform amberlynne.

Also, I spent like the last ten days of my life writing a really shitty story for my writing class that made me want to tear my hair out. THEREFORE, I think it's time for another prompt (snippet, time stamp, what have have you) party so I can enjoy writing again. You know the drill, any fandom I've written for in the past is fair game. Do not feel pushy. Dear SPN people, I would kill for some good prompts, I have not abandoned you!

Have a song for your trouble: Easy by Dragonette. It's the most romantic unromantic song I've ever heard. And I kinda hope to feel this way about someone one day.

NOW THAT LIVEJOURNAL IS FUNCTIONING.

I would just like to preface that I am totally basing this on about thirty bad romantic comedies and I apologize in advance for my total lack of prompt skill, but I think that Brad and Nate totally need to meet on Match.com or OkCupid or your terrible online dating site of choice. (You know Ray would totally create a fake profile for Brad just to watch hilarious responses roll in.)

Possible hilarious hijinks involving this, sort of like a choose your own adventure:

1. Since Ray was behind Brad's profile, Nate is slightly under the impression Brad is a hot girl.
2. Neither of them are using accurate pictures.
3. Brad isn't going to respond to any of the emails, seriously, but the guy likes the single worst football team on the planet, and he kind of has to point it out, and then they spend like a month accidentally falling for each other over google chat.
4. Phone sex.
5. ...um, Ray. Ray is his own number.

I must voice support for this prompt of AWESOME. Ray knows Brad is all brokenhearted and shit and dating some hot chicks will totally fix him.

This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

Ray sets him up with a match.com account for April Fools. According to his profile, his name is Brigita, he lives in Malibu, he enjoys margaritas *with* sALt, NCAA basketball players, and the AwEsOmE 80s band The Outfield. The picture is of an undeniably hot woman lounging in a white sundress in a hammock. Brad figures when he opens his e-mail on April 1st at 9:15 AM and finds 62 responses, Ray found it in a Victoria’s Secret catalogue.

That is until he gets a very angry e-mail from n.fick@dartmouth.edu titled “WTF?” Brad picks up the phone and punches in Ray’s number. It rings a few times and then Ray picks up with a jubilant, “Hey!” clearly assured that he got Brad better than Brad got him.

“Where did you get that picture, Ray?”

“The internet, dude! That chick is hot! I wanna spread her over waffles.”

“Ray,” Brad says, keeping his temper in check, “did you steal if off somebody’s facebook?”

Ray coughs and doesn’t reply. Brad growls. “I just got an e-mail addressed ‘Dear Unstable and Delusional Person’ by an N. Fick complaining about how I used his sister’s picture to misrepresent myself as ‘a horny morally bankrupt barfly’s wet dream.’”

Ray cracks up. “Yeah, yeah, morally bankrupt, my ass. He’s obviously on the site.”

“According to the e-mail he was ‘shocked’ to discover his roommate e-mailing his sister on a dating site ‘obviously intended for sexual incompetents who can’t comprehend how easy it is to fabricate an entirely specious life history on the internet.’”

“Okay, so, maybe he’s not on the site.”

“Ray, I just had to explain to a little ivy league bitch that I’m actually a 25-year-old male getting my doctorate at Caltech who was pranked by his own former college roommate.”

“If you wanted him to believe you, I might’ve left that Caltech bit out.”

“You are such a toolbox,” Brad replies. “But that’s okay, I just deleted your facebook account. Good luck re-friending those 1,213 contacts.”

“What?” He hears Ray clatter around on the other end of the line, probably running to his laptop. “NO! BRAD! WHY? NOT MY FACEBOOK!”

Brad laughs long and hard. He hangs up still chuckling. A e-mail pops up in his inbox.

Oh,
I hope you will forgive me for my somewhat enraged electronic rant. Mea culpa. I noticed that you took the profile down. Thank you. I will inform my sister to place tighter control over her facebook pictures.

I appreciate it,
Nate

PS. Caltech? Awesome! What are you studying?

YOU ARE MY HERO. :*

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[trolleys.livejournal.com]

THIS IS BRILLIANT. You must continue! \o/

I hope you will forgive me for my somewhat enraged electronic rant. Mea culpa.

*cackle* That is so Nate. *love*

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Basically I just think of five dollar word I can think of and then substitute it in. I'd really like to see him take on passiveaggressivenotes.com!

eta: I forgot to mention, no prompt?

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[jujubinha.livejournal.com]

PS. Caltech? Awesome! What are you studying?

And thus begin a scaldingly hot and full of sex beautiful relationship!

This is awesome, seriously. I hope to see more of this!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

With the 8 million other things I have to do, HOPEFULLY, I'll get to it. But I'm so glad you like it!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[alethialia.livejournal.com]

::squeals madly:: Omg, LOVE!

I hope you will forgive me for my somewhat enraged electronic rant. Mea culpa.

Yeah, that's SO Nate. So painfully, wonderfully Nate. The excerpts from his e-mail are fabulous, too.

PS. Caltech? Awesome! What are you studying?

Aw, Nate. So cute. Just wait 'til you get a look at dear ol' Brad. ::hearts::

You should definitely continue. This one's fun!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I have NO IDEA how exactly they would get together, but the possibilities are fun to imagine.

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[miss-saigon.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha, poor Ray. He should know better than to mess with the Iceman.

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Yes he should. Brad has a vicious streak and the badassery to back it up!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[tikiaceae.livejournal.com]

This is great! I love their interaction and poor Ray! But later when Brad and Nate get together and be all in love he can be smug and say I MADE THIS HAPPEN AND YOU GUYS OWE ME!!! \o/\o/\o/

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Yup! Ray is like divine providence!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[laura-iskra.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAH THIS IS SO RAY!

and of course hard retribution was to be expected.. and also nate's and bread's reward when they finally hook-up!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[oxoniensis.livejournal.com]

Ah, Ray, messing with Brad is a foolish pursuit! This made me gleeful. As for 'perhaps I will continue' - yes, please!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Will do my best! You know how it goes!

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[themicemen.livejournal.com]

Unf. Mea culpa. Nate, you dork. ♥_♥

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Pretty much! :P

Re: This is closest to number 3, perhaps I will continue it.

This little ficlet is so perfect in all it's aspects that I'm afraid to ask for more, yet we do not actually see any Brad/Nate lovin'!

I love how despite Nate's not really being there, his character is completely developed and present. ^______________^
