have been unavoidably detained by the world

When I'm feeling down, I like to put out a call for fic prompts, and I jot down quick, unbeted little ficlets in response. I like writing, I like fulfilling prompts, and I find the beta process stressful, so this tends to work as instant happy-making stress relief for me. And hopefully, people like the things I write for them, because making other people happy is like +100 in happiness points.

Anyway, I've decided to finally collect them properly and cross-post them to AO3 and such, so here they are, with only the smallest of edits.

All of the original prompts and responses can originally be found on livejournal.
