I'm bored and I've reached my limits on Big Bang revisions and additions for today. Plus, I have no interest in engaging with work this afternoon.

Prompt me with something timestampy! I reserve the right to comment back with "you're nuts!" if you request something really whacky, as well as the right to ignore you if you prompt me with something CSI related ;)

Otherwise, pick a story and leave a prompt!

I want CSI. Kidding, I just wanted to tease.

Either something from Dial it In or the Waiter!Jared Verse.

Waiter!Jared timestamp: Daily Special

[kelleigh.livejournal.com]

Jared watches Jensen spin his fork through the long strands of whole-wheat vermicelli, pieces of sun-dried tomatoes and spinach all caught up in one tasty bite. He yawns.

"You know, it's kind of hard to eat like this," Jensen says.

"Like what?"

Jensen raises his right shoulder, disturbing Jared's comfortable slouch. He tucks right back into Jensen's side and grumbles. "Stop moving."

"I can't bring my fork up," Jensen laughs. "And this smells amazing, seriously. You're killing me."

Knowing Jensen's lust for food is outstripped only by his complete adoration of Jared, he concedes the point. Plus, Jensen's coming off a long shift at the hospital and Jared feels a little bad to be smothering the guy. Dragging himself out of the booth, Jared pulls a protesting Jensen out with him, and then slides back in first.

He pats the seat next to him and Jensen smiles. Now leaning into Jensen's left side, his boyfriend can eat in peace and Jared can soak up the comfort.

"Why are you so tired?" Jensen asks between bites of the new pasta dish Jared had thrown together. "Long shift?"

"Pulled a double," Jared says, yawning again. The kitchen of 81 East is already closed for the night but the managers are having a pow-wow over by the host stand and there are a few servers hanging around until the bar closes. Everyone's used to Jared sneaking his boyfriend in for an after-hours dinner whenever Jensen works late. "But I barely slept at all last night. Aldis brought his girlfriend over again and they were up watching some action movie marathon."

"That's the third night this week."

Jared sighs. "I know. I think they're getting crazy-serious."

"Nothing wrong with that."

Jared sees the grin on Jensen's face, hopefully put there by him and not his rich asiago cream sauce.

He lets Jensen finish a few more bites, loving the content little moans Jensen makes after he swallows. He could fall asleep right here, but his bosses wouldn't appreciate it. Jared might have worked his way up to being head waiter, but spending the night in a back booth might be pushing it. Even the obscene stack of cash tucked in his apron isn't enough to cure his blurry mind or heavy eyelids.

Jensen sets his fork down. "You're amazing." He ducks his chin down and lays a soft kiss on Jared's forehead. Jared tries not to purr like a kitten, but Jensen brings out the sappiness in him. "That was orgasmic."

"Really?" Jared mumbles. "Good, 'cause that might be the only orgasm you're getting tonight."

"Aw," Jensen mocks him. "You're not gonna put out? That's okay, baby. I still love you."

"You'd better."

"I'm stuffed," Jensen says, tossing his napkin on the table. "I'm gonna go get a box, hang on."

Jared lets him go. Jensen knows where practically everything in the restaurant is anyway. The kitchen staff wouldn't even be fazed if Jensen walked in and asked for something -- they all know him.

His eyes are dropping further when Jensen comes back. He watches Jensen pack up the pasta and disappear again with the dirty bowl and silverware.

"I want you to come home with me," Jensen says when he comes back. "You're not getting enough sleep and--"

"Sleep's the plan," Jared says, letting Jensen yank him gently out of the booth. They wave goodbye to the staff, Jared leaning heavily on Jensen's shoulder as they make it out to the parking lot.

Jensen stops them beside his car. "You didn't let me finish. I want you to come home with me tonight, but then I don't want you to leave."

"Huh?"

Something after Cash or Check. Me loves the banter!

Got a prompt or just anything? :)

Birthday Treat | Cash or Check!verse

[kelleigh.livejournal.com]

"This place is amazing." Jared's salary is pretty decent, but he's never been able to afford a dinner at Orchid. The tables are appointed with modern, square-cut wine glasses and sleek silverware, black chargers under hand-painted plates. "Are you sure this is where you wanted to come?" he asks Jensen.

"You want me to give up the reservation I worked so hard to get?" Jensen laughs. "I like you, but this food is worth spending an entire paycheck on."

"My paycheck, you mean."

His boyfriend gasps, mock-affronted. "You want me to pay for my own birthday dinner?"

"I'm just saying, you'd better have some spectacular birthday sex in mind for later," Jared says, picking up the menu and licking his lips.

"I might be too full from all of this amazing food," Jensen teases. "So we'll see."

Jensen had been planning this night out for weeks, intent on cramming as much into his birthday as he could before preparations for his defense took him away from Jared for days at a time. Jared let him go wild and they'd already spent the first part of their Saturday out at a Yankees game, screaming their lungs out as they both rooted for the other team. Dinner at Orchid had been Jensen's surprise, insisting Jared get himself all dressed up. Of course, Jensen didn't look half bad, either.

For a grad student, Jensen owned a killer wardrobe. He rarely needed the expensive suits these days -- he'd quit the escort business less than a month after he and Jared starting dating seriously. Tonight he's wearing a light gray suit, sky blue tie bringing the outfit together. Jared had to resist jumping him before they left for dinner, but Jensen told him there'd be hell to pay if they were late.

Jared flinches when he looks at the menu. He doesn't see a single price listed which means that everything is probably out of his budget. But damn, everything sounds so fucking delicious, his mouth is watering despite thoughts of going bankrupt over Alaskan salmon and organic beef from Texas stock.

And when the waiter brings their entrees and Jared gets a taste, he feels like he's died and gone to a place better than Heaven, if it exists.

"Told you so." Jensen smirks.

"You might have to start selling yourself again to pay the bill," Jared says between scrumptious bites.

"And I, for one, would hire him," a rough voice says from above them. Jared looks up and sees a well dressed man hovering at the side of their private table, his salt and pepper hair only adding to how attractive he is.

"Jeff!" Jensen stands and wraps the man an intimate hug. Jared's left gaping with a tender piece of steak in his mouth. He quickly swallows before Jensen starts making introductions.

"Jared, this is Jeff Morgan. He's the owner of this restaurant." Then, to Jeff, "this is Jared, my boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?" Jeff looks Jared up and down but there's nothing intimidating in his eyes. On the contrary, they're almost too warm. As Jensen sits down, Jeff takes one of the extra chairs. "You've certainly done well for yourself, Jensen," he adds with a wink. "Together, you two make an enticing picture."

"Jeff..." Jensen starts to say.

"What? I can't admire my clientele?" Jeff laughs, a richer sound than Jared's expecting. "You used to check me out all the time when we'd go out."

Jared figures it out. "You and Jensen--"

"Jeff was a repeat client of mine," Jensen explains, no hint of shame in his voice. Usually Jared admires the fact that Jensen's proud of the way he used to earn money. But tonight, that pride feels wrong. "He took me to some of the nicest restaurants in the city."

"Got you hooked on fine cuisine," Jeff says. "How's mine compare?"

"It's amazing, Jeff. I mean it. This place is absolutely wonderful!"

"And Jared," Jeff turns to him. "What do you think?"

"I'm not used to food like this," he says, "but everything is excellent."

I want a timestamp to the prince story! Five years from the end (...errr...beginning), please!

My Prince | Kings!verse pt.1

[kelleigh.livejournal.com]

Jensen stares out at the crystalline blue of the mighty Pacific, he waters even and calm under the horizon. But at the shore where waves meet the craggy coast, the water tumbles over the rocks, constantly pushing. The unstoppable force against an immovable object. The water is destined to war with the rocks until one dries up or the other erodes into nothing.

Once upon a time, Jensen thought that would always be the way of things between Gilboa, his beloved country, and Gath, the country of his beloved. He'd believed the two proud nations would clash and come to ruin, but that was before Jensen seized life, seized the opportunity given to him along with the man who'd held such promise.

And for five blessed years, the Princes Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki had known only peave between their countries.

A cool breeze brings the scent of tea olives in bloom to Jensen's nose. The sweet smell always reminds him of the vineyard, in whose gardens the bushes grow tall and full. There is so much Jensen loves about his home by the sea, miles away from Shiloh and Joshua's royal mansion. In the last few years, the sprawling stone villa and expansive lands have become the place where Jensen can truly be at peace with himself, relaxing in the light of a perfect sunset, or amongst the fields and orchards surrounding the house.

Standing on the lawn above the rocky shoreline, Jensen's reminded of the first time he brought Jared here. They'd escaped from Shiloh as soon as the peace accord was signed and declared official, and Jensen had stood in this very spot letting the weight of all he and Jared had accomplished settle upon him. He felt close to God at that moment, awash in a ray of light strong enough to penetrate the clouds, and felt his parents' love at the same time. Jensen knew they would have been so proud, and as Jared approached to stand in his rightful place at Jensen's side, he knew Gilboa's former king and queen would welcome Jared into their light.

Now, Jensen wipes away a tear caught at the corner of his eye. He's simply glad to be home.

"I thought I'd find you out here."

Jared's steps fall softly on the grass. He comes up behind Jensen and stops, winding his arms around his husband's waist.

"Where were you?" Jensen asks, leaning into the familiar embrace.

"I fell asleep," Jared admits, laughing. "Three weeks without a decent night's sleep caught up with me. I decided to take a nap before unpacking."

"Decided? Or did you just sit on the bed halfway through and fall asleep?" Jensen's well aware that his sleepy husband is no match for a soft piece of furniture.

"Speculation like that gets us nowhere, my Prince."

Before they were married – an unnecessarily extravagant affair in Shiloh that nearly toppled the mighty Helena – Jared rarely used such titles unless formality necessitated them. But once Jared was sworn in as royalty in his own right, those names became a teasing game. Affectionate nicknames shared in jest where no one, especially Helena or Joshua, would hear them.

OH OR! A timestamp to the farmer fic, which I also loved. *bites nails* I CANNOT CHOOSE.

[ebcdic.livejournal.com]

two become one! housewarming party.

[wildrosesings.livejournal.com]

Oh, still more "Cause of Depth"! A food run after too little sleep.

[santacarlagypsy.livejournal.com]

I hope I'm not too late!

I would LOVE to read a timestamp for Upon and By the Grace of God. Maybe an outtake where the boys go to the vineyard?

(Still one of my favorite lines of yours: Jensen falls into sleep with the image of sun-kissed and blessed days by the sea. ♥)

But anything from that verse would be fantastic!

[kelleigh.livejournal.com]

I used your prompt of them being at the vineyard and combined it with the time of five years later for the time-stamp I just posted! http://kelleigh.livejournal.com/315434.html?thread=3085866#t3085866

[jesseofthenorth.livejournal.com]

I don't have a prompt. I'm just here to wallow in the fic :D

[shenova.livejournal.com]

Loved sleepy Jared now he can move in with Jensen and maybe get some sleep.

[cryysis.livejournal.com]

What are the chances that you love your readers enough for another time stamp in the Sugar Daddy verse? Because that? Was hot. J/J/S = My new OTT.

I blame YOU. ;D

[kelleigh.livejournal.com]

I'm still trying to work out just where I want that relationship to go now that Dean's on the scene! But I AM plotting and writing when I get ideas, don't worry :)
