I'm stuck at home for the next day and a half. The only thing worse than a lab tech who is always sick is a chef who is always hungry.

So...I think I'll do some work on SVU:The Musical. Anyone have any suggestions or requests?

Let's do the 12 days of SVU Christmas/Hannukah/Kwaanza/Solstice. I'll start:

On the first day of (pick your holiday)SVU gave to me:

A de-dyked Detective Benson.

I was asked by ship_manifesto to write an essay about the Alex Cabot/Olivia Benson pairing. Here is the link for anyone interested: The Case of The Butch and The Blonde

These are just something I worked on for heathers's birthday. Have a great day, H! Mrs CB and I will be celebrating here for you (if you know what I mean).

( Birthday Limericks )

This is something I wrote for the Thursday 100+ group.
The challenge was "Missing Scene" and this takes place after the explosion in "Loss"

1,867 words

( Kaboom )

Law and Order:SVU

Exactly 100 words.
( Head of State )

From the episode "Bound".

This takes place right after Casey is shoo-ed away from the judges' poker game

It would appear that I have fallen into a drabble series hereafter known as:

HARLOTS OF HUDSON PLACE

1. ( Secrets )

2.( Lyin' Eyes )

This is a sequel of sort to Secrets found at http://www.livejournal.com/community/svu100/5932.html?#cutid1

The writers are out of commission and Big Dick looks to the cast for help.

Here's one for the First/Last Challenge

"We need to go."

"Not until I see her."

"You can't." he said.

"I WILL or we're not doing this!" she argued, her voice echoing lightly in the barren room.

"You cannot see her...she's gone." he said softly.

"What do you mean 'she's gone'?" she asked as angry pools filled her eyes.

"Detective Benson was found in her apartment early this morning dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. She was holding this." he answered as he handed the tattered photo to the shaken woman.

"Olivia no!" she cried as the tears flooded down her face staining her own image.

This is my first attempt at writing anything in many years. Be gentle. About 410 words.


"How bad did it get?", he asked.

I told him that the pain of loss was overwhelming at times, but the comfort of her memories had kept me strong.

I didn't tell him how Elliott had found me the next morning, still covered in Alex's blood, her picture in one hand, my gun in the other.

"How are you feeling right now?", he asked.

I told him that I was focused at work, my appetite had returned and that I was finally sleeping through the night.

I didn't tell him about the undeserved rage I often directed toward Alex's replacement or the meals consisting of bourbon or caffeine. I didn't tell him that I lay awake most of the night wondering where she is, if she's safe, when she'll come home, will she still love me. I didn't tell him that when I finally drift off, I still hear the gunshots, I still see her bleeding, and I still wake up screaming her name.

"How do you feel about the future?", he asked.

I told him that Alex had been the love of my life and that I would always carry her in my heart. I told him that I knew we would be together again someday, but until then, I would use her spirit as encouragement when faced with the difficulties of life.

I didn't tell him that Alex was alive and that I would continue to mourn my loss of her, but never her ghost. I didn't tell him how I had told Elliott about the love Alex and I had shared and how he promised to help me bring her home again. I didn't tell him that my partner and I were secretly working with the Feds to bring down Velez. I didn't tell him that I knew without a doubt that I would see Alex again, hold her, love her.

Two days later, Cragen called me into his office.
"I know how hard Alex's death has been on you, on us all.", he said.

I told him thanks and that I appreciated everything he and the squad had done for me after her death.

I didn't tell him that my heart tore a little more each time I heard him or Munch, or Fin talk about getting Alex's killer. I wished I could have told them the truth and I wondered if they would forgive us when they found out.

"You passed your psych eval," he said. "Now let's get back to work."
