Beneath the Surface (100 words)
After dinner, while I'm loading the dishwasher, of all things, you
come up behind me and place your hand in the small of my back as you
thank me for the meal. I close my eyes, and the image hits me: turning
around and kissing you until we're both breathless, laying you out
right there on the dining room table, using my hands and mouth on you
until everyone in the entire apartment complex knows what you sound
like in the throes of passion.
If I turn around, will you really see me? Or just what you've come to
expect?
Karl, that's a lovely thing to read this morning.
Everyone's so far has been evocative in its own way.
Anybody else want to wash dishes?
Anyone else channeling Bull Durham? "You wanna dance...?"
Hell, I'll throw out my dishwasher!
TB's read like a drabble - I kept wondering why he hadn't given it a title.
Umm "Market Research" was the title. Oh! I didn't bold it. I'll go back and bold it.
And thanks - yeah it was a drabble. I mean I don't think you have to have watched Angel to get everything in it; I think I conveyed a fair amount of Lilah's character (as I see it of course) even to non-fen. But it is also fan fiction, in that knowing a little about Lilah and the angelverse adds texture and depth.
Ah, see, if it's fic, I wouldn't have made the connection.
TB, what drabble are you referring to? I think people mean this post: Typo Boy "The Great Write Way, Chapter Two: Twice upon a time..." Apr 11, 2006 5:14:02 pm PDT
Is *that* an Angelverse drabble?
So you couldn't tell that Lilah was, well, Lilah, from Angel? Hmm both good and bad. Good that it stands on its own. bad that an Angel fan could not even spot the connection.
