grey's: "or do you want to literally take off your pants?"

[waltzmatildah]

Okay... the post I just did... so didn't get me out of my Grey's Funk Of Doom.

Therefore... this.

PROMPT ME.

Character/Pairing | Song/Book/Movie/Episode Name/Whatever tickles your fancy | Season/Era (including future)

(things you should probably know -
I suck at completing all prompts. Forewarned is fore-prepared for disappointment.
If your prompt includes Alex it is exponentially more likely to be completed.
I suck at fluff.
And I hate it. Most of the time.
No non-canon slash. I just can't do it anymore.
Or incest.
Threesomes? Maybe. As long as Alex is one of the three.
If you choose a character/pairing not including Alex he will probably definitely still make an appearance.
I love Alex.
I am an angst whore.
That is all.)

Irene makes some lovely stuff, so have fun browsing.

I thought of another possible prompt - a Mark POV. Because I've been watching the early seasons lately, having a major GA marathon, and realised for the first time that Alex doesn't actually do anything to earn himself Mark's enmity, not back in the first instance. It comes as a bit of a surprise, because Alex has spent most of the first 2 seasons deliberately antagonising everyone around him as a means of holding them all at arm's length, but then Mark comes along, and all Alex wants is to learn from him, it's the first time we see him really make an effort in that way...and Mark takes an instant dislike to him for no reason. Four seasons later, that antagonism between them is still going strong, just with a lot of history attached. So Mark's perspective on the man who's life he just saved could be interesting, as a retrospective kind of rumination.

I'm thinking about this way too much!

Um, I LOVE the fact that you're thinking about it way too much! Because your prompts are blowing my mind! Haha.

The finale just aired here in Australia, it literally finished just minutes ago... my inspiration levels are all sky high again so... yay!

I think it is important to think about it too much during hiatus, because I fully expect that anything we see of Alex's recovery next season will be underwritten to allow Derek to have the harder time of it, whereas I firmly believe that the opposite would be true (given Derek's almost instant medical attention versus Alex not being either found or evacuated quickly enough). So indulgence ahead of the fact is crucial to cushion any future disappointment!

I'd never explored GA fanfic before now. Yours is definitely my favourite of what I've found so far. :)

*sigh*

Well, you can rest assured that in MY fic, Derek will make a speedy and complete recovery and the focus will most definitely be on Alex! Makes me feel very powerful to be able to say that!!

Storytellers are like gods in their own little universes. Powerful indeed! *G*

Just now, every time I watch an episode in which someone's surgery goes wrong causing much drama and excitement while the crisis is resolved, I picture it happening during one of Alex's surgeries...because I'm also picturing multiple surgeries. I have this recurring image of Meredith calling in to see him on her way to take Derek home, Alex grumbling about Shepherd being discharged so soon, and Meredith pointing out that their injuries were different, he had more surgery than Derek and lost a lot more blood, so is going to have to suck it up and wait out the longer recovery.
