I am behind on my target word count for the year and I am trying to get as many words counted tonight (my time) for

1_million_words' total target of 15 million for the year, so I need your help!

If you would like to help me, leave your prompts here! Please make them 1-3 word prompts only (whole sentences/ideas tend to bring on far more than drabbles, and this is all about short fic today!), and you may suggest a fandom and/or pairing if you know the kind of things I write and want a specific fill, but feel free to just leave it open and general if you don't mind, as that will make it easier for me.

Go, now! As many prompts as I can fill with drabbles on up to comment fic-size short pieces before I hit the hay tonight is my aim, although I am at work right now and may not actually start until later this afternoon. THANK YOU!

Current Mood: rushed
Current Location: the orifice
Current Music: 'Gypsy' Fleetwood Mac

A crack of thunder woke Chekov from the sticky-warm doze he'd been in. He blinked sleepily as the rain began to fall outside the window of the quarters he and Sulu had been assigned to on the world the Enterprise was currently visiting.

"Hikaru," Chekov whispered, throwing back the sheet and climbing out of bed. He wore only sleep-shorts due to the heat.

Moving acrosss to Sulu's bed, Chekov studied the sleeping form with a smile as he kneeled on the floor, bringing his face close to Sulu's ear. Sulu might look thin, but he had a runner's body – all hard lines and smooth skin in all the right places, and almost all of it was on display now, although he was hiding the best parts by lying on his stomach.

Chekov repeated his friend's name, his grin widening when Sulu flipped over and sat up, blinking awake rapidly.

"It's started to rain," Chekov told him, straightening up and heading to the balcony to open the glass door so they could appreciate the coolness the rain brought into the room.

Sulu followed him slowly, still naked, standing immediately behind Chekov's right shoulder. "It's beautiful."

They'd been on this world for almost two weeks, and in that time it hadn't rained once. The planet was lush, causing a limp sort of humidity that had all of them cranky and listless. Their hosts maintained the atmosphere changed completely when it rained, and that it would, very soon. Captain Kirk and his crew members were less than convinced, but now…

"Come on," Sulu murmured against Chekov's ear.

"What?" Chekov asked as he shivered in pleasure at the feeling.

"Have you ever danced in the rain?"

Chekov snorted softly. "Dance? In rain? Is insane."

Sulu held out a hand. "That's the point."

Chekov didn't understand, but he nodded, reaching to take Sulu's hand.

"Uh-uh." Sulu held up a finger. "Off with the shorts first."

Chekov's heart thumped in anticipation. "Why?"

"They don't need to get wet, and this is much more fun."

As Sulu moved into the falling rain and the dim light of the city reflected on his skin, Chekov began to smile. Sulu had made his point. Shucking his shorts, Chekov hurried to follow his friend onto the balcony, closing his eyes in delight as the soft droplets cooled his skin.

Opening them again slowly, he began to move, laughter bubbling up from his throat as Sulu danced around him, his fingers tracing the rivulets of water on Chekov's body from time to time. Chekov found himself dancing too, returning the gestures until both of them were breathless from the exertion, and close enough to kiss the water from each other's lips.

Sulu licked a droplet from the end of Chekov's nose and then kissed his mouth, dragging him by the hand back into the room and pushing him down onto the nearer of the two beds to continue the kiss.

"Crazy," Chekov whispered when Sulu pulled away far enough that he could speak.

"Yes, but it was worth it, wasn't it?"

"Completely," Chekov replied.
