quaggyBack when I posted this meme, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pheobep and unoriginal_liz gave me some great prompts. Even though I still have more prompts to go, these are the are the last of the 100 word drabbles I'm going to write. Apparently, my writing skills have failed me, because I just couldn't get the others to work. So, for the rest of your prompts, you guys are just going to have to deal with longer drabbles/ficlets instead. I know you're disappointed. :-)
Title: Hey, Jealousy
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Life With Derek
Prompts: "Derek/Casey - jealousy"
For:pheobep
She was never jealous of the girls he dated. Not popular Kendra. Not perfect Sally. Not even Emily. Nope, she was always happy for him and would even help him out if she thought that he was really desperate. It's not like he was asking that she fall in love with him. Just a little jealousy so that he could pretend that maybe, just maybe she felt the same way that he did on days when things really looked hopeless. But no. It didn't bother her one bit when he was supposedly in love with someone else. It wasn't fair.
Title: The Fundamental Difference
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Doctor Who
Prompts: "Rose, Martha - unexpected"
For:unoriginal_liz
Notes: Blame this on the fact that I'm still stuck back on Season/Series 3.
From the very beginning, he knew that Martha was fundamentally different from Rose. She would never be able to become an extension of himself the way that Rose had. Martha's inner strength was deeply rooted and it gave her the drive to always follow her own path. He liked that. He wouldn't have to worry about another painful parting with a companion who wasn't yet ready to let go. No, Martha would chose when to say good-bye and be able to walk away with her head held high.
What he didn't expect was how much it hurt when she did.
Title: Team Loyalty
Word Count: 100
Fandom: Sports Night
Prompts: "Jeremy and Dan have a conversation that is a little bit about sports, but mostly about Natalie"
For:unoriginal_liz
Notes: For those of you who might not be familiar with the football career of Doug Flutie, go here.
"I'm just saying the guy should have more loyalty."
"Who? Flutie?"
"Yes."
"To the team that cut him?"
"I'm sure they're regretting it now."
"I'm sure they are too, but that doesn't change anything."
"But—"
"Jeremy, they treated him terribly. Oh, it started out well, I'll give you that, but who in their right mind would stick around after everything they put him through? And if there's a team that just... wants him...... He has every right to move on. And he doesn't need your permission to do it."
"Okay.......... Hey, Dan?"
"Yeah?"
"Just...... Be good to her?"
"Right."
