Prompt List

Peter swallowed and tried his best to remember that he was an extremely capable agent of the F.B.I. That he dealt with unsavory characters all the time.

That training hadn't prepared him for the terror he was feeling at that very moment. At that moment he would rather be facing a murderous thug than his very pregnant wife.

El came in the kitchen moments ago looking for the leftover ham salad because that was all the baby wanted. It seemed that he and the baby had the same thought. He really wished he hadn't eaten the second sandwich.

Prompt List

Jones watched as Neal and Mozzie ambushed the prime suspect in their current forgery case. Neal had an inside lead on the guy's location. He had convinced Peter that he and Mozzie would be a better choice to approach him.

Everyone on their team knew that Neal and Mozzie had their own style. The team also understood their style had closed more cases than the traditional way of thinking had.

He wished sometimes they would be a just a little more by the book. He was sure one of these days; their antics would cause him to have a stroke.

Peter looked at the tickets Mozzie had handed him moments ago. They were for the new play El had been talking nonstop about for the past month.

Peter had tried to buy tickets but had very little luck. The only seats available were either out of his price range or in the worst spots in the theater.

Peter just wondered what the catch was to accepting them. He had little doubt he would have to deal with it just by taking the tickets. He reminded himself that El's happiness was more important than whatever crazy thing Mozzie wanted for them

Neal looked at the print of the Wanderer above the Sea of Fog. He'd kept it with him through his teens. He used to daydream about all of the exciting times the man would have on his journey. Neal wanted to have his life more than any other he could think of.

That was true until he started working with the F.B.I. He found it hard to believe that he no longer wanted to wander off into the mist to see what laid beyond the mountains. He'd finally found a home and was more than happy to stay.

Neal carefully followed his mother's recipe for her ultimate date night dish. He knew that everyone at the office would think that the meal would be the finest French dishes with expensive wine.

They would all be wrong.

His mother taught him that anyone could love you when you're serving them an expensive dish. The trick was to find someone that still loved you when you served them Beans N' Weenies.

He checked the time and realized he had just enough time to shower and change before Clinton arrived. He wondered if he would want to stick around for seconds.

Elizabeth hung her phone up wishing she could have the satisfaction of slamming it down in Miranda's ear. Elizabeth had donated her services for every function the bureau wives hosted. Until Miranda had informed her that she was no longer needed or welcome.

They'd decided that Elizabeth had an unhealthy attachment to unsavory characters and they just couldn't stand for it. Miranda said she would be better suited hosting casino night with Peter's C.I. and his degenerate friends.

She wondered how much money she,Mozzie, and June could raise and if it would be enough for Miranda to choke on.

Prompt List

Peter checked the tray for Elizabeth once last time. He wished he had her flair for presentation.

He had visions of fluffy waffles, crisp bacon and a couple of perfectly cooked eggs. Instead he had waffles that easily could double as cardboard, charred bacon and rubbery eggs. He fed Satchmo the evidence of his attempt at cooking.

He had a bowl of cereal, and glass of juice surrounded by flowers, miniature chocolates, and a card.

He knew he forgot or had to work through many of their special dates, but he vowed things would change starting with this Mother's Day.

He knew the fed spending time with Caffrey was Burke. He knew Burke had been focusing on catching him with the same intense drive he had when he caught Caffrey. It didn't worry him. Hagen knew he was smarter than Caffrey and soon he would prove it. Too bad the only other person that would know of his brilliance was Caffrey.

Challenge 246 - Soup

Prompt #246 Soup

Soup is probably the second oldest food (after just sticking stuff in/over fire). It warms the body and spirit, heals and relaxes. Every corner of the globe and every family has that thought that pops up when the word soup in mentioned. Campbell's Chicken soup from a can. Tomato Soup with grilled cheese. Matzo ball soup from the deli on the corner. Pho, gazpacho, French onion dripping cheese. Yum.

Title: My Gift
Characters: Elizabeth, OC
Prompt: 229 Decorate
Rating: G

Elizabeth watched with mild amusement as the young woman dug through her purse for her letter of reference. El hoped that the letter would explain what the woman was doing on her doorstep.

“Aha!” She handed over a page that Elizabeth recognized as June's personal stationery.

Dear Elizabeth,

Please accept my gift of having Gretel decorate your nursery as you see fit. I fear if you don't you will have three very headstrong men with very different ideas what you and your babe want. This was the only way I could think of to stop them from arguing.

Love,
June

Title: A Man With a Plan
Characters: Neal
Prompt: # 146 Genius
Rating: G

Neal wasn't worried about Peter accepting his proposal. He knew how much of his career he'd spent focused on Neal.

All he had to do was present his plan to Peter. Neal knew he would stew over it for a few days and he would fold.

Of all the cons he's ever pulled this one would be his finest. He would get out of the extra time he earned when he ran after Kate said goodbye. The best part was he would have limited freedom, a chance to drive Peter crazy and the F.B.I. would pay him to do it.

Challenge - 245 River

ladygray99 — Thu, 14 Jan 2016 03:07:05 GMT

Prompt #245 River

Time flows like a river, rushing through some moments, slowly meandering through others. Some moments are shallow and others truly deep but in the end all are swept away. For less metaphor the Hudson and the East River or the Seine of Paris flowing quietly past lives we know and lives we know strolling past them.

Challenge 244 - Odds

ladygray99 — Thu, 17 Dec 2015 03:09:23 GMT

Prompt #244 Odds

What are the odds? What are the odds of running into someone who happens to have a mutual friend? What are the odds of a particular stock doing well when the rest of the market crashes? What are the odds of a winning horse suddenly losing every race? When does luck start looking like a crime and random chance look like a con? What are the odds of getting caught?

Challenge 243 - Television

ladygray99 — Fri, 13 Nov 2015 04:43:58 GMT

Prompt #243 - Television

People on TV don't spend a lot of time watching TV because it's boring watching people watch TV. And it gets a little meta. But out in Real Life we all do it. So what do our characters watch? Peter's into sports but does he have any must see shows? Is someone a closeted bad reality TV junkie? Has someone seen ever episode of Friends, twice? Does Diana crack and end up with DVR full of The Wiggles and Dora the Explorer?

Challenge 242 - New York

ladygray99 — Sat, 07 Nov 2015 09:01:23 GMT

Prompt #242 - New York

A city so good they named it twice New York is often a character in itself. What is high drama for one person maybe hardly more than a ripple in the big city. Is that what lured Neal to the Big Apple. New York is probably the best place for El but how about Mozzie? What keeps him in New York and not out in the forest or on the top of a mountain? And what does New York think about all our little heroes running around just a few out of millions.

Challenge 241 - Mingle

ladygray99 — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 21:04:05 GMT

Prompt #241, Mingle

Time to step out and mingle with the crowd. Cons work parties and events all the time, blending in and gliding through trying to find the perfect mark. Diana can probably manage a full diplomatic event in her sleep. And what must it be like at FBI mixers? Crossover time?

Challenge 240 - Peace

ladygray99 — Tue, 06 Oct 2015 20:23:30 GMT

Prompt #240 - Peace

Peace can be hard to find and hard to keep. In the chaos of New York, in the busy life of a con, FBI agent, event planner, or even a dog, moments of peace are precious. What each person considered peace can be different. A glass of wine and a view of the city. A cold beer and a game on the TV. A zen garden in an abandoned warehouse. Each a reflection of peace as different as the person it belongs to.

Challenge 239 – Anger

ladygray99 — Sun, 20 Sep 2015 03:00:21 GMT

Prompt #239 – Anger

As much as we want to live in peace and tranquility it is only a rare few who can avoid anger. The boys and girls of White Collar have had their reasons to be angry of the years. Neal's anger every time is misses a chance at freedom. Peter's anger when he's lied to or misled. Mozzie's anger when Neal his to pick sides and doesn't pick the 'right' one. Satchmo has probably even had a bad day or two in there. How do they all deal with their anger? Push it down, push it away, or just take a breath and let it fade.

Challenge - 238 Joy

ladygray99 — Wed, 09 Sep 2015 22:49:08 GMT

Prompt #238 - Joy

There is nothing like a moment when our hearts fill with joy. It may only last for a flash of time but it can feel like hours or days. What moments have given our White Collar friends true joy? Holding a new born child for the first time? Tasting true freedom for the first time in years? Simple words can give joy. "Yes" or "I do". Find your own moments of joy and share them with us.

And continued thanks to vexed_wench for sharing lovely drabbles with us.

"I ran into old man Lowell and his wife this afternoon. He reminded me that his son is a divorce lawyer. Seeing as how your wife has a man sneaking in and out of the house while you're at work." Peter mimicked their neighbor's accent.

"Really? Did he happen to mention who I was cheating on you with?" Elizabeth wondered.

"His wife said it was a damn shame you passed up the pretty hat wearing boy for the short balding man."

"I'm cheating on you with Mozzie?"

"I can't wait to tell him." Elizabeth giggled when Peter nodded in agreement.

June walked around her favorite coffee shop carefully choosing the items she wanted sent special delivery.

She knew that anything flashy or expensive wouldn’t be welcomed. She knew that they wouldn't see it as a bribe, but Peter would see it as slap in the face.

June had met very few men like him. After the years she spent with Byron she know how lucky she, Neal, and Mozzie were to have Peter in their corner.

Who could complain if an occasional box of good coffee and fine pastries found there way into his office as an occasional thank you.

Challenge #237 - Hope

ladygray99 — Wed, 02 Sep 2015 21:04:25 GMT

Prompt #237 Hope

Life is never perfect. Things don't always go exactly as you plan, but you always have to have a bit of hope. Hope that your favorite con will turn his life around. Hope that your favorite FBI agent might loosen up a bit. Hope that the case will be solved, that your career will stay on track. Hope that your love will come home safe.

"Anything interesting happen today?" Elizabeth asked as she sat next to Peter.

"I stopped off to see the little creep. " he reminded her.

"The little weasel that's been harassing June." she nodded.

"I figured I would help him move along."

"I bet that was something to see."

"It would've been except someone beat me to him."

"You mean Neal beat you to him." She laughed.

"No, it was one of her dearest friends who's best friends with a F.BI. agent's wife. Would you believe the agent in question is almost as scary as his wife?"

"Way to go, Mozzie!"
