prompts? hmmm ... a good little slow dancing snippet would be wonderful if you're up to it :]
(I ask this as I listen to my grillster playlist full of slow love songs)
borrowing some Hell-rasiers from @silverskye13, I was struck immediately by an idea for these two <3
Gaster never expected the damned thing to work.
He found it at the bottom of a canyon, lookin' all sad and mopey. Just like his fire did when the snow came blowing in all fierce. As it was doin now. Winter had come down with some sort of reckoning behind the flakes and left most of Deadwood stuck indoors, Grillby being stuck worst of the lot. Never in their years traveling together had he seen Grillby so stirred up an' ready to turn something to soot. For once, Gaster didn't like the sight of that smoke prowling around the room. So he dragged the pitiful thing back to the bar amongst all the logs for the other stuck townsfolk and placed it straight in the fire’s path. Grillby stared - glared - at it as Gaster patted all the snow off his duster.
“What’s that.” Grillby’s scowl hadn’t deterred him before and wouldn’t deter him here.
“It makes music.” Or it did, at some point or another.
“I know that. Why’s it in the bar?” He still looked offended by it. 
“Maybe I don’t want to lose my voice singing for you all the time.” Gaster waved off whatever expression Grillby’s flames turned into at that. Course he would sing until he was hoarse, and then sing a little past that point. But Gaster was too cold from trudging around Deadwood, wasn't up for arguing over anything so when Grillby opened his mouth again, he snapped, “do something with it at least. Turn it to charcoal if you want. Better than the bar top.” 
That settled that enough for the day. The little music player sat all hunched up and forlorn for only one more day, before the sound of flickering flames was joined by tinkering clicks of springs and bits and bobs. 
Nothing seemed to happen beyond that. Snow came and went, folks returned to the bar, flowers bloomed in the prairie grass. Gaster got back to ranch work and Grillby managed his bar. 
Then, one slow evening, music filled the stillness.
Gaster looked up in surprise. 
“What's this?” He watched Grillby move away from the music player, a satisfied twist in his flames. 
"I want you to stop darkening that corner of my bar." Grillby held his hand out towards him.
"You like me darkening the corner," Gaster countered the well-worn complaint with his own well-worn excuse. "It keeps the ilk riding through from doing it."
The invitation still stretched towards him. The music was a gently crooning thing, making the room go all soft and out of focus, like a memory drawn in pencil between the pages of his book. Gaster's bones found Grillby's fire on her next chorus. 
Hand in his. Hand on waist, his draped over his arm. 
It wasn't hard to match the music’s sway, not hard to match his partner’s neither. There was plenty of room to move around, dance however they wished, but Gaster was just fine with their slow spiral. He hummed along to the music, keeping them in time. Reminded him of another dance. 
“When was the last time we danced like this?” He asked.
“Hmm, Hillsboro Manor, the woman who had real gold in her wallpaper.” 
“Real gold, that’s right,” Gaster echoed with a laugh. “Almost forgot about her from that day. Too bad we couldn't steal some of that paper too.”
He got a snort of fire pops for that, then Grillby spun him out of their lazy circle, only their hands connected when extended out before he was yanked back in close.
“Remember how we got away?” Grillby asked, all grins of mischief. 
“Do not dip me-” Grillby dipped him anyways, hand warm and steady behind him, their faces too close to do anything but lose the gap to a kiss. Gaster hadn't then, too fulla nerves about all the stolen trinkets and their plan to do anything. He'd make up for that now. His hand pulled on Grillby's collar, getting him in close. He could taste the delighted surge of warmth at that choice, and chased it between his teeth for as much air as their breath had to offer.
Then, before Grillby could do what he did last time, Gaster looped his elbow around Grillby’s neck, and pulled them both to the floor. It was a loud, ungraceful fall, limbs going just about everywhere, making a right racket that’d startle anyone into thinking there was a fight coming. 
“Gaster!” The yell was punctuated by a punch to his side, but Gaster only had laughter to give in return, perched as he was now on his fire. He grinned down. Grillby glared back up at him, but it was all bluster for bein surprised. 
“Had to pay you back for last time, you see.” Gaster explained, sounding not even a little bit sorry and not moving no matter how Grillby shifted - settled - against the floor boards, finally accepting his fate.  
“C’mere then, make up for interrupting our dance,” Grillby growled, something playful behind the rumble that Gaster bent willingly to, ready to follow his fire. 
The music played on, gentle and slow.

「 ms. marti garcia 」
Full Name: Martine Lisandra Cabrera Garcia
Nickname/s: Marti, Garce, Marti G
Faceclaim: Jeanine Mason
Gender // Pronouns: cis female // she/her
Age // Date of Birth: 29 // October 3, 1993
Hometown: Nashville, Tennessee
Occupation: Producer @ Applause Entertainment Group
Neighborhood: Hillsboro Park
Time in Nashville: 1993-2011, 2014-Present
「 quick links 」
nashvillehq | full bio | connections | tags
[ tw: cheating partner ]
「 the introduction 」
Marti is the youngest child of 4 with three older brothers. She works for her family's company as a music producer.
To say her family's status has impacted her life in a positive way is an understatement. She attended a fancy private Catholic school growing up, drove nice cars, and general lived a pretty comfortable lifestyle due to her family's money.
Her mom was a backup singer in her day and Marti's dad was a musician in a semi-famous band (managed by Applause, obviously, and then transitioned into the role of COO once he settled down and started raising a family.
Marti's brothers all ended up doing something musical, whether it was playing in a band or starting a singing career. She's the only one who isn't actively performing, but she still fell in love with the industry. Going to watch her older brothers record in the studio was always her favorite, and that's where she got her start.
Marti applied for and attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in London to study music production. She probably could've gone without college with the family connections and having grown up around the industry, but she wanted to really be the best of the best.
Three years after leaving for London, Marti returned home openly bisexual, engaged to a British man, and ready to set fire to the industry she'd grown to miss in her time overseas. Unfortunately, things aren't always what they seem. Marti caught her fiancé in bed with someone else not once but two different times, and she quickly learned he had only proposed in hopes of her helping him land a deal with Applause.
To recover from the humiliation of giving two and a half years of her life to a man not even worth another moment, Marti threw herself into her work, establishing a reputation in the industry for pushing the envelope whenever possible. If you've got the safety net of your family's legacy to catch you, why would you be afraid to take your shot?
「 deeper dive 」
This girl is a smidge terrified of turning thirty because that feels like an adult age and she considers herself very much Not An Adult.
Marti tends to fight to work on projects she thinks are going to be game-changers. She usually opts for female artists, songs or projects that will allow her to flex her creative muscle, or anything that's going to cause a scene or challenge the industry.
Marti's using her mother's surname both personally and professionally mostly because she really loves supporting Latinas and also because she wants to make sure nobody can say she just got her job because she's a Cabrera.
She's definitely a "Stick it to the Man!" kind of gal, and she has no problems pointing out flaws in a male-dominated industry that rarely takes women like her seriously.
You'll often find her dancing in a studio during playback and generally always having a good time! She loves to make the process fun and exciting.
People at Applause whisper that she's only got the job because of her father, but really, she's a balance of hardworking and talented on top of the nepo baby status.
Do. Not. Bring. Up. Her. Ex. She trashes him at every possible opportunity, including loudly talking trash over his songs when they play at a bar. Things did not end well, obviously, and she's a firm believer that the man is the spawn of Satan.
Marti is determined to never find herself in a serious relationship again, and she isn't one to really do dates but she loves a good hook up. Notorious for asking people not to catch feelings because she will ghost them if they do.
「 at-a-glance timeline 」
1993: Born to Jose Cabrera and Beatriz Garcia Cabrera in Nashville, Tennessee
2011: Graduated from high school and moved to London (UK) to study at the Academy of Contemporary Music
2011-2014: Lived in London, studying at ACM, came out as bisexual, started dating her ex-fiancé, and returned home after graduating

Lima dulce-sweet lemon The store was lively with cultural music playing, and hanging fiesta…

Coraline  is a dark fantasy horror children's novel by British author Neil Gaiman. Gaiman started writing Coraline in 1990, and it was published in 2002 by Bloomsbury and HarperCollins. It was awarded the 2003 Hugo Award for Best Novella, the 2003 Nebula Award for Best Novel, and the 2002 Bram Stoker Award for Best Work for Young Readers. The Guardian ranked Coraline #82 in its list of 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. It was adapted as a 2009 stop-motion animated film, directed by Henry Selick under the same name.
 Coraline is a 2009 American stop-motion animated dark fantasy horror film written and directed by Henry Selick and based on Neil Gaiman's novella of the same name. Produced by Laika as the studio's first feature film, it features the voice talents of Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, Jennifer Saunders, Dawn French, Keith David, John Hodgman, Robert Bailey Jr., and Ian McShane. The film tells the story of its titular character discovering an idealized parallel universe behind a secret door in her new home, unaware that it contains a dark and sinister secret.
 Just as Gaiman was finishing his novella in 2002, he met Selick and invited him to make a film adaptation, as Gaiman was a fan of Selick's The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach. When Selick thought that a direct adaptation would lead to "maybe a 47-minute movie", the screenplay had some expansions, like the introduction of Wybie, who was not present in the original novel. Selick invited Japanese illustrator Tadahiro Uesugi to become the concept artist upon discovering his work when looking for a design away from that of most animation. His biggest influences were on the colour palette, which was muted in reality and more colourful in the Other World, similar to The Wizard of Oz. To capture stereoscopy for the 3D release, the animators shot each frame from two slightly apart camera positions. Production of the stop-motion animation feature took place at a warehouse in Hillsboro, Oregon. Bruno Coulais composed the film's musical score.
 The film was theatrically released in the United States on February 6, 2009 by Focus Features after a world premiere at the Portland International Film Festival on February 5, and received critical acclaim. The film grossed $16.85 million during its opening weekend, ranking third at the box office, and by the end of its run had grossed over $124 million worldwide, making it the third highest-grossing stop-motion film of all time after Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. The film won Annie Awards for Best Music in an Animated Feature Production, Best Character Design in an Animated Feature Production and Best Production Design in an Animated Feature Production and received nominations for an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and a Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film. It has since developed a cult following in the years since its release.

Finding the (Gravel) Road Less Traveled
Riding the nearly forgotten road to the Teetertown Preserve Hot Dog Donna wanted to ride with me on my usual route through Morris/Hunterdon counties in NJ. Sure, I'm always up for it. But this time I threw in a twist. Hollow Brook "Road" near the town of Califon. "Road" in quotes because it looked more like a gully-washed river bed (in Hot Dog's exclamatory words). Hikers gawked as I duck-walked my Kawasaki W800 Cafe through the worst parts. At one point I lost sight of Hot Dog and her CanAm Spyder but hey, it was everyman for himself at this point. Of course we made it through and then it was on to the usual (for me) small-farm country roads of New Jersey. Music: Hillsboro Rain by the Surf Guitar Villains
