Title: A Pocket Full of Soul
Fandom: Kingsman
Pairing/Characters: Eggsy Unwin/Harry Hart + Daisy
Summary: Eggsy has something to ask Harry.
Rating: G
Length: Very short (584 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: The Kingsman sequel will be out a year from yesterday, so I thought I'd post a little something in honor of that. I'm not really sure how much of a time skip from the end of the movie is required for Eggsy's sister to be this articulate, so I'm leaving that as open as possible. The title comes from "Mirrors" by Justin Timberlake.  Not Brit-picked.
Excerpt: Eggsy scowled at his reflection, finding fault with everything about it. He was wearing his best suit, sure- but his hair was askew, his cheeks were flushed, and no matter what he tried he couldn’t get it to sound quite… right.

Title: Tea For Four
Fandom: Cabin Pressure
Pairing/Characters: Martin Crieff, Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock Holmes, Excelsior Black
Summary: Martin has tea with his siblings.
Rating: PG
Length: Very short (365 words)
Disclaimer: These characters don't belong to me- only the silly idea!
Notes/Warnings: This little vignette shouldn't be taken too seriously, and yes- it's sort of AU. I just wanted Mycroft, Sherlock, Martin and Colonel Black to all be siblings and I was willing to ignore whatever I had to ignore in order to make that happen. I do imply that Martin was raised by other people, so it's still loosely canon at least. It's set early in the Cabin Pressure timeline. As is necessary with three shows that all have such very different tones, I had to pick one. I rounded up to Clone-typical behavior, so this is only PG (or G) rated as much as Clone is. Nobody dies, but respect for human life is not high.
Excerpt: "You might let us charter your firm to fly his… people… somewhere one day. To give your colleagues… perspective.”

Martin thought about that. Excelsior was nothing if not a giver of perspective, and Martin did want to get paid once in a while. At minimum, he wanted to get the cheese tray to himself once in a while.

Title: Just a Cold
Fandom: Foyle's War
Pairing/Characters: Christopher Foyle/Sam Stewart
Summary: Sam gets sick.
Rating: G
Length: Very Short (564 words)
Disclaimer: None of these characters belong to me.
Notes/Warnings: Written for my hc_bingo square minor illness (my card is here).  I'd set it around S5 or 6.
Excerpt: “Worried about me?” She eyed him through half-open eyes, somehow sly. “'S just a cold.”

“Yes,” he said, ultimately to both. It certainly didn’t help that she looked so pale and weak. It brought to mind that time when she’d been truly ill- dying, even- and he hadn’t been sure he would be able to get the cure for her in time.

Title: Chill
Fandom: The Wild Wild West
Pairing/Characters: Artemus Gordon/James West
Summary: Artie warms Jim up.
Rating: G
Length: Very Short (359 words)
Disclaimer: The Wild Wild West belongs to CBS and a lot of people who aren't me.
Notes/Warnings: This is the closest I've gotten to a drabble yet, if that's worth mentioning.
Excerpt: “Honestly, Jim,” he growled. “Are you constitutionally incapable of thinking things through?”
