Inspired by cookie
Dec. 12th, 2005 07:40 pmI thought I'd post it here, since it makes me laugh in all it's stupid glory:
"This reminds me of that gag picture," Kevin said idly.
"Shut up," Brian said from beside him. Well, he thought Brian was still beside him.
Kevin grinned in the dark. Pitch black. As in no light whatsoever. If they tried to move now, they'd kill themselves on his grandmother's two bookcases, three broken rockers, two dozen boxes and the three hundred or so items that hadn't made it into boxes. One did not venture lightly into The Basement...generally one went with *lots* of light, actually. So he guessed one did venture lightly. Kevin shook his head. "You know, where you're shown a plain piece of white paper, except for a little black dot right in the middle?"
"Shut up."
"And then you're told it's a polar bear blinking in a blizzard? That always made me laugh."
"That's because you're an idiot. And shut up."
Kevin continued grinning. It had become a game, bewteen them, the lengths to which Brian would go to make him shut up. So far Brian was winning. It was nuts what he would actually agree to do. "Make me." Dare you.
"How?" Dare accepted.
Kevin racked his brain for something to finally throw his neighbor and sort-of friend for a loop. Maybe it was the dark that drove him to it -- they couldn't see each other, he couldn't even see his hand in front of his face, as the saying went. But he could smell the dust and mold, and Brian's mint gum, drying sweat from playing hoops before the storm drove them inside and orders to find flashlights down to The Basement. Yeah, the dark made him do it. "Kiss me."
Silence. Kevin started to snicker and declare his victory -- then hands found his shoulders, climbed higher, and jerked him forward. They bumped foreheads, noses, but then Kevin realized he was quite firmly being kissed.
He was still silent several minutes after Brian let him go.
"Huh," Brian said smugly in the dark. "That really did work."
"Oh, shut up."
Brian laughed. "Make me."
"This reminds me of that gag picture," Kevin said idly.
"Shut up," Brian said from beside him. Well, he thought Brian was still beside him.

So this lovely piece of silliness was wonderfully timed.

Anyway. Loveliness, as always. ^_^

Cake does not belong in cookies. If it had cake, it's not a cookie. It's a cakie. *smacks self*

"You are such a woman."
Karmikel folded his arms across his chest; a sure sign that his ire was reaching 'I'm going to throttle you' levels. "And if you call me a woman one more time, redskin, I'm going to make you less a man." It didn't sound like a threat so much as a promise.
Lark laughed. "I doubt it."
"Don't tempt me." Karmikel dropped his arms and turned stiffly away, headed off the bridge and toward his -- their -- cabin. Though it was going to be just his for a few days at least. If Lark wanted to get touchy feely then he could go back to the bar.
"Honestly, why do you get in such snits? You're worse than every female I ever met."
"Then go back to them!" Karmikel snapped. "You certainly seemed happy enough with their attentions a little while ago. So go find a damn woman, if that's what you want." He stormed off, locking the door barely in time.
He started toward the bed, then changed his mind and turned toward the desk, then changed his mind again and stood with shoulders hunched in the middle of the room.
Why couldn't Lark have fewer interesting friends? But really, anything was far more interesting than a man who was little more than a battery.
Karmikel ignored the pounding on the door -- and tensed more when it opened. "I hate you, Vicky." He thought he heard a metallic laugh, then nothing. "Go away."
"No - this is our room and I'll be damned if you lock me out of it." Lark forced him to turn around, though Karmikel managed to avoid having to look at him. "Why are you so upset?"
Karmikel didn't reply.
Lark held him tightly by the shoulders and started shaking him, hard enough to rattle Karmikel's teeth. "You're a brat."
"Yeah, I know." Karmikel glared as he was finally allowed to hold still. "I'm a brat. I'm whiny. I'm fussy. Worse than a woman. Honestly, if you dislike me that much -- go back to your friends." He shoved Lark's hands away. "They're obviosly loads more interesting than a stupid battery."
Dismay flooded Lark's featured and he hauled Karmikel roughly back, kissing him hard enough to bruise, leaving Karmikel breathless and unable to struggle free. "I want you, 'Kel. When are you going to get that? Do you really think I'd face your sniping and fussing and brattiness if I didn't love every bit of it?" He gave Karmikel another breathless kiss, then pulled away and shoved hard, sending Karmikel sprawling across their small bed. "Honestly, if anyone here should be jealous it's me -- your so busy glaring at everyone you don't notice the looks they give you."
"Liar," Karmikel replied, annoyed with himself for being as unable as always to resist when Lark pressed him into the mattress. "And we'd fight less often if you stopped letting them touch you."
Lark laughed against his mouth. "But your so cute when you get all possessive and angry."
"Stop talking or I really will have to hurt you." And Karmikel cut off Lark's reply before he was forced to kill him.

Also I was just wondering today if anyone from Batch 2 had their cards yet. I'm so glad yours made it :D
Hm, a card for a bit of story... I wonder if they have New Years cards and Martin Luther King Day cards and Groundhog Day cards and Valentine's Day cards and President's Day cards...
