Comment fic meme: Breaking up

[noracharles]

Any fandom, any character, any sort of relationship.

Write about a character breaking up with a person they have any sort of relationship with, or a character breaking up with an institution, an organization, an ideal...

Comment with prompts by putting this in the subject line:
Prompt: fandom or just Prompt if it's for any fandom. Feel free to specify characters and relationship types too, if you have any preferences.

Answer any prompts which interest you, and also feel free to comment directly to this entry with an off the cuff ficlet or fragment, or a link to where you've posted it. Reposting previously written fic which fits the theme is fine.

Absolutely no care or effort or beta-reading or editing is expected or required! I'm just hoping someone will entertain me. People I don't know are very welcome indeed ♥

Oh, sorry! No, I don't have any specific prompts, beyond what's in the entry. If it inspires you to read something more specific, I'm in the mood for someone dealing with the feelings after having broken up, and feeling determined to try to move on, rather than thinking up ways to get back to the way things were.

They don't have to be dealing with it in any healthy or constructive way, just experiencing it, if you see what I mean?

Or fic about someone having moved on, and realizing, hey, I'm over it! are also good.

Karl Pilkington tells anecdotes from his life and make humorous observations about things, both putting into words things people are thinking but know better than to say, and weirdly imaginative theories about the why and how of things. He's like Calvin in a thirty-something man's body.

He's currently doing a travel show on Sky 1 where he goes to see the seven wonders of the world, and looking very much like a cat being washed in the sink. He doesn't like crowds or loud noise or surprises or strange food.

Okay, first you compare him to Calvin and then you compare him to a WET CAT? I am so in! LOL I will have to see what I can find.

Also, when you put it like that, I find it suddenly odd that I am very fond of Henry Rollins, who also travels a lot and talks about it in his performances. But he is the complete opposite of Karl. He says of himself that he can't sit still, can't shut up, and will try anything at least once. He's like a hyper 12-year-old much of the time, but I love his uber-liberal oppinions. Also, he has a filthy mouth and a buzz cut, and I am nothing if not predictable >-<

I can't think of a pairing! I have a tentative idea, but I'm stomped for characters...

Henry Rollins sounds interesting, I'll have to check out some of his stuff :-)

I'm not sure of what characters to suggest, since I don't know if we are in any of the same fandoms? I'm mostly into Supernatural and Merlin at the moment, but I'm happy to read new fandoms too.

I also like Danny from Hawaii 5-0, I like Due South, I like The Sentinel, I like Stargate: Atlantis, I like Grant from Mythbusters, and I don't know... lots of things.
