When I've been writing these, I've been attempting to write them in the order I have written my prompts down in a list. This is the first one that I've written out of order, because the writing gremlins found inspiration for this one first.

The legalities: I do not own any of the Expendables franchise (characters, places, and objects especially) and this is mostly au.Rated M just to be on the safe side.

Also, please don't be afraid to write reviews. I would love to hear from you all!

Hope you enjoy!

Prompt: "That is a terrible, horrible, incredibly foolish idea. Let's do it and see what happens."

"What are you doing?"

Thorn looked up from the project he was working on to see Luna and Jacoba looking at him with their arms crossed and brows furrowed. He knew he looked tired; he had been in the side room of the hanger all night working on this but he knew it was almost done. Smirking, he turned his attention back to it, seemingly forgetting the women who had just asked him a question until he felt his chin being lifted to meet the Amazon's eyes from where she was now squatting in front of him.

"Thorn, are you ok?"

He shrugged. "Oh yea, J.D., I'm fine. Just working on a project." As if to accentuate this point, he lifted it slightly for her to see.

She rolled her eyes. "I did see that, Thorn. Which brings me back to Luna's earlier question. What are you doing?"

"So, I noticed that the plane's navigation system looked a bit rough…"

"I'm gonna stop you right there, young man." Jacoba had now stood up and was shaking her head. "Absolutely no one goes near or upgrades that plane's systems other than Barn. So just stop right there and get some rest." Turning away from the now pouting man, Jacoba walked out the door, probably to check on some other member of the team.

"Was that what you were going to do?"

Thorn looked back up at Luna for a minute before looking back down at his handiwork with a crestfallen look on his face, mumbling, "Maybe."

Luna smirked as she went to stand in front of him. "Well that was a terrible, horrible, incredibly foolish idea. Now let's do it and see what happens."

Two hours later found both Thorn and Luna sitting side by side on the hanger's couch with a very pissed off Barney and resigned Jacoba standing in front of them. Barn had already been going at them for a while now, while Jacoba had just stood there shaking her head. It was taking all of the self-control that Thorn and Luna had to not look at each other because they knew that they would start chuckling if they did.

"I think that's enough, Barn." They all turned towards Jacoba, who just shook her head again. "They're young and dumb and I know for a fact that Thorn hasn't slept in at least 24 hours. How about I just continue this in the morning, ok?"

With that, they all just went their separate ways. It was easier that way.
