Challenge #5

In your own space, create a list of at least three things you'd love to receive, a wishlist of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it and include a link to your wishlist if you feel comfortable doing so.

I hate asking for things.

1. Pray for some peace. It's getting uglier in the US.

2. I would love a cool new Sentinel icon. I only have about six total.

3. A little drabble from the Sentinel fandom. I love drabbles.

Have a fabulous Friday.

How about a triple drabble? Spoiler: I was half asleep when I wrote this. LOL!

“Dial down, big guy!” Blair shouted from inside the station.

Jim, already running for the door, skidded to a stop and spun his mental dial down. “Everyone down!”

He dropped to his knees just before the explosion rumbled the ground beneath him. Windows shattered, but the building held. The rest of the team quicky regained their feet and continued the mission to infiltrate the building.

Not daring to breathe, Jim dialed hearing back up and searched for Blair’s heartbeat. It had to be there. He had to be there.

“All… good,” Blair gasped, coughing. “We’re okay. Jim, the bomber. He’s –”

“Getting away,” Jim said, spying a man dressed in tactical gear heading away from the station, carrying an oversized duffel bag.

He immediately gave chase. The bomber may have been a genius at strategy and explosives, but he was no match for an angry Sentinel who had nearly lost his Guide.

“You picked the wrong police station,” Jim said, slapping on the cuffs. “Better luck next time.”

In the end, Blair and Simon were lucky to emerge from their ordeal with minor bumps and bruises. The bomb had been localized – to Simon’s chair – and with some quick thinking he and Blair had been able to get him out of it before it went off.

And while everyone grumbled about the elevator being out-of-order for repairs after the bomb, attached to Simon’s chair, had been dropped down it, no-one really minded. Plus, the Chief of Police was giving Major Crimes a commendation for how well they worked as a team in a crisis situation while managing to keep millions of dollars from being stolen out of their own evidence room.

“Can we agree on no more bombs?” Jim asked.

Blair gave him a kiss. “I’ll see what I can do.”

Lord knows we need all the help we can get. These are really nice. Thanks again.

I love it. I love it. Just my style of excitement and cute guys, too. LOL, this was so nice of you. I'm going to print it up and store it with my zines I have. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and the top too. I'm all happy and smiling like crazy. I love these boys.

I will pray and leave you a link to soothe the inner turmoil.

I know a metal singer is singing, but give him a chance. You won't regret it. Dan Vasc's voice saw me through many difficulties.

From:

pattrose

That was beautiful. I’m not familiar with him but he has a gorgeous voice. Amazing is a hard song, but he did it with ease. What group is he in? I’d like to check him out. Thank you so much for this. And thank you for the prayer.

From:

He's in Fearless in Brazil. English isn't his first language. But he also sings in German, Latin, Portuguese, a little Japanese, but mainly English.

His cover of Gethsemane in Jesus Christ Super Star will spoil and ruin all other versions.

Just sub to his YouTube.

I love Jesus Christ Superstar. He has the right look for a rock opera.

It will spoil everything.

From:

pattrose

He gave me goosebumps. That’s the best one I’ve ever heard. I bookmarked it so I can listen whenever I feel like it. My heart is happy. Thank you for introducing him to me.

From:

fairyniamh

You're welcome. I couldn't write you a drabble (I don't know the fandom.) So, I'm glad I could introduce you to someone new instead.

From:

pattrose

I already sent the link to my brother who adores the rock opera. He’s going to love it. Did he do a cd of the entire thing? I would buy it in a heartbeat.

From:

fairyniamh

He only did Gethsemane. You can buy his mp3s on Amazon. I am no way get money from endorsing him. I just think he needs more love than he gets. Especially, for this underrated song.
